| 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:

| 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
