    Cruiser spotted

    I was driving south on the 55 near the Dyer exit today at 3:15 and saw a white and gold LX450 driven by a pretty lady with black hair. It had an ARB with winch, OME kit and black steel wheels with 285s. I was in the F450 so I wouldn't have been noticeable by a fellow Cruiser head. Anyone?
