Washington state cruisers

lx450landcruiser · 03-03-05, 02:36 PM

ok guys please post your name in the thread titled "who we are" please tell us where your from in the state, what kinda cruiser you have along with pic if you want. This might help some people here in the state meet up for trail runs/gatherings also might help for selling stuff locally that you dont wanna ship.

please let me know if you have any ideas or questions.

Cool...always nice to know Cruiserheads in close proximity. Coastal Cruisers is just north of the border, a few minutes drive for some of you. Drop by if you're in our neck of the woods for chit chat and beer. Maybe some joint runs in the future? Cheers.

I'm heading down to fish Eastern Washington at the end of this month for a few days...so if you see a lifted and snorkelled BJ74 with an Asian guy driving on the wrong side of the vehicle, please say "hi".

lx450landcruiser · 03-03-05, 09:45 PM

you know a joint cruiser run or meet might be a great idea. not sure it will happen super soon but its deffinatly something to keep in mind. im going to print out some I8MUD flyers and post them in some peoples cruiser as i see alot in this town alone would be great to at least do a cruiser meet maybe once a month like the copper stae guys do.

Nothing like 20 cruiser heads at a drive in just haging out in the parking lot BSing could be fun

PHAEDRUS · 03-03-05, 10:13 PM

Mike,
have you checked out the notjeep.com site yet??
this is the home of rain country land cruisers. good bunch of guys but not very many trail runs. mostly 40 series guys though.

Hi All,
Names Kevin, I have a stock '95 80. I'm hoping to slowly build it up over the next few years. I have poked around a few places, but I need to lose the running boards before I do anything too crazy. I travel to Wenatchee a lot (in-laws) and really would like to explore over there some more.

Count_Fred · 05-31-06, 01:21 AM

G'day all,

Just purchased a 1994 FZJ80. Pictures at http://www.jfs3.com/static.php?page=...es/FZJ80/index It's stock with factory lockers. Will eventually be an expedition vehicle as time and money allow. In the mean time, it's my daily driver. Not exactly new to Cruisers as I drove a FJ62 through high school, with the other family car being a Prado and later, after I moved on, an LX470. After many years away it is good to be returning to my "roots."

Cheers,
JFS III
