My Pig has a new home

Never thought I would ever sell my pig , but I did, and I will look back one day and regret this but its been a great ride and you guys and gals here in the 55 section ....are great.
It's interesting, over the past three years Ryan Scott is the only 55 owner I've met., but I have put faces to all of you through your words here on the mud and a few pictures here and there. The truck was not listed for sale but I got a call and was ask if I'd sell it ... the first number was three and it ships out in a few weeks to AZ I'm not leaving the MUD , I have my eye on the 2010 FJ Cruiser, I need something for a daily driver that I can put some mud on . I'll chime in from time to time.

Well, a sad day and a great day. I appreciate your contributions and will be glad to see you chime in from time to time. BTW, as I am in NM, where in NM is it going?

Again, best wishes, Eric.

X2 on what Eric has stated.........we do appreciate your contributions. I had really forgot how nice your 55 is. I love that ICON too. Good luck and stay in touch, Dave

Eric, my mistake, it's going to Flagstaff AZ, Vintage Offroad will finish all the weather strip and a few small projects and then I don't no where the new owner lives.

The "finance" guy at Toyota told me that they were not making any FJ Cruisers anymore. This was last week. He could be full of it though. You never can tell about those dudes....

Wow Lou, congrats on the sale. I have always admired your pig and your attention to detail while working on it. Very inspirational and informative thread. Thanks for all the great advice and hope to hear of your next Cruiser purchase... and soon.

Cheers, Carlos

Lot of info in the FJ section about a new Mil Spec Green 2010, so will have to see if thats the case.

I almost change my mind about selling the 55, but its going to ship out in a few days. I would continue to find a way to spend more money on it , that's what we all do, so it's going to a new home.

I've seen a lot of Cruiser's sold here and I feel pretty lucky to get $30K plus for my truck and the fact that I'm in the car biz, I could use the extra cash right now.

Thanks All

Lou

Wow! $30k, that is a lot of cheese! Good for our Pig values...

Personally, I would want to know where my Piggy is going onto.

Thanks for sharing and good luck with your FJ!
