Re: Finally....

I'm having a great time with the FJ. It's tough to get the controls from my gf but I'm bigger than her. Took it out last night in the rain for my first off-road experience ever. Some dirt piles with mud and rocks. Played for a half hour but was cautious, even went over a rock about a foot or so high (pretty extreme for me at this point). I was amazed how it turned in 4x4. My kid couldn't stop laughing and she even thought we were going to tip over a couple of times. What a great introduction to what the FJ is capable of.
Just a couple of things;
- trying to get the gf to pose for a picture to post in the girls and FJ forum
- thinking seriously about Demello sliders
- still searching out Sirius options
- what about an alarm system? are FJ's prone to theft
- having a ball
