Well, its time I put a build thread together, so here goes.
I bought my 08 FJ with 5 miles on the odometer in October of 2008. I got railroaded on the deal, but thats a story for another thread. Came with every option, including rear locker, A-TRAC, Sub, etc.
Why Wandering Annie? 3 reasons.
1) I'm a military history buff, and Wandering Annie was an unofficial nickname given to the first homing torpedo developed by the Navy. I was probably reading a story about it or something when I thought up the name, and...
2) My wife and I are prone to wandering about the country wherever we are, so the name kind of fit there to. Annie takes us wherever we want to go, and...
3) When I first installed my OME 886's, I didn't add aftermarket UCA's. Thus, a lot of the time I tended to wander all over the road while driving. Thats when the name kind of came into its own.
4) Also, as I've gone through several iterations of my build, my mind wanders from project to project. Thus, Wandering Annie kind of works for me too
