Hey guys...

Decided I'd join this place.. While I don't own a toyota, I love em, and wheeling in general, and I hope to learn more about them. I got here thanks to SOCALFJ. I like it here, and just thought I would introduce myself, like the message at the top of the page told me to. I put it here, because I couldn't find a better place. I drive an 89 yj with lots of crap attached to it, thats in need of a new motor. Thanks for lettin me in.

EDIT: Here is a pic of my junk out at Truckhaven last weekend:

Welcome to the board. You'll learn to appreciate the yota side of the world real quick. Thanks for everything you've done for us.

This will get moved to chit chat now.

Hi All:

Welcome to MUD! Better buy a Toyota 4wd before you get flamed!

No worries, I 'wheel with a couple of Jeep owners - the people are more important than the type of vehicle they drive!

At least your rig is not a "wagon!"

Regards,

Alan
