New to the forum....2012 Trail Team

Hello everybody, I'm new to the forum although I have been lurking for a couple months now. I went to a San Antonio dealer to look at a 2008 FJ that was loaded with alot of options. It wouldn't fit in my garage with the large lights on top so I asked about the red TT sitting on the showroom floor. A few hours later and a few dollars lighter, I left my 2011 King Ranch F150 4 X 4 there and drove the red beast home! I've previously owned a 1998 4-whel drive Tacoma that I always regretted selling. I just rolled over the 500 mile mark yesterday coming home from having the front windows tinted. I added the Bushwacker fender flares a few days ago. I look forward to alot of hunting, camping, mountain climbing and desert exploring in this FJ.

It barely fits, like less that 1/4 inch! I had to take off the high lift jack and hanger and the axe that was mounted to the roof rack, it would never fit with them on there.

It was tough trading in the King Ranch, it's a very nice truck. I got a good deal on the King Ranch getting it in trade from a guy that really wanted my 2002 Trans Am. I made about 8,500.00 on the King Ranch on the trade in so I took the plunge. I still have my Chevy Z71 so I'm not truckless!
