I had the UPS guy stop by the house on his run the other day just to check out the newest FJ addition....He wasn't even delivering to me (this time)...I suspect he is catching the FJaddiction...and will probably have one in his own driveway pretty soon...is Brown a 2008 color?

Re: I am Addicted

Welcome and congrats.

Don't forget the AT tires if you plan on taking it off road.

Re: I am Addicted

It hits you very subtlety, just kinda nudges you and gets your attention long enought to infect you with MODIFITITIS. When you fall asleep the last thought in your mind is, what lift wheel/tire combo would be best I have to go to the forums and read and post and take pictures of every angle of my fj sitting in the driveway at work on the trail on vacation with my pets OH GOD when is my Bandi mount going to get delivered crap I gotta figure out how to explain to the wife that all that money spent on the fj was an investment for the future man I wonder how much money Air spent putting together his bada$$ fj I wonder if a CAI voids the factory warranty I wonder if I could paint my wheels black as good as Dragon what kinda paint did he use yeah it's worth it I love my fj.......

No, I can walk away any time I want.

EMBRACE YOUR OBSESSION.

BECOME ONE WITH YOUR ADDICTION.

AND WHEN THEY COME TO TAKE YOU AWAY TO THE FUNNY FARM -- we'll all be there waiting for you. It will be like old home week.

And all because we yielded to temptation and bought the FJ in the first place.

is Brown a 2008 color?

No, but I did own a 77 CJ-5 that was UPS brown with a big decal depicting some kind of fancy chicken on the hood.



Step 1:
We admitted we were powerless over the temptation to mod—that our lives had become unmanageable.

Steps 2-9: Get the thing out to play as often as possible, forsaking family, friends and work to hang out on the forums

Step 10:
Continued to take personal inventory and when we were wrong promptly admitted it. (for those that originally bought "spacer lifts")

Re: I am Addicted

Brown is an '07 color.... granted it after a good washing it will change colors... had my FJ in some mud and a lot of dirt (this stuff gets everywhere) this weekend on the east end of Irvine Lake (cub scout weekend.)
