Guess it's about time I threw my ratty assed old rig in here.
1. 89/FJ62
2. Gordon
3. The Elephant Chaser (carry over of a named given my FJ40 by one of my Sgts. years ago), "The Big Red Truck" (granddaughter's name for it), or the POS!!!
Just depends on whether it's running that day or not
4. I'll have to look.
5. OME Lift, ARB brush bar, MAF header, 33x12.50-15 Kevlar Wranglers, Removed the "for sale" signs
6. Like a $2.00 hooker!
Actually, it went from being a DD, to my weekend toy.
For now sees mostly beaches and light trails/dirt roads, usually leading to a beach or lake)
Once I get the bugs worked out of her (or do a Vortec swap!), she will become my (our) exploration rig.
Our plan is to take her all over the State of Florida, hitting all the little one horse cities, beach front/island towns, then heading out of state.
For the time being though, there's more local camping, fishing and canoe/boat hauling in her future
7. A pic doing what she does best.
Taking me and the grandbaby to the beach
(sorry for the crappy cell phone pic. I'll try to get something better up later.)

I like your style. Big Red trucks are the best.
Phoenix60, I think so PO did it I just took it off. I can get 5 mpg better with it off.

You going to sell it to a ski club? Modify it? Or just sell the aluminum to scrapyard and use cash for mods. I've got a rack like that on my E350 that I'm getting rid of.
I have it posted in the classifieds. Will see what happens, selling as scrap may be a good idea. I am hoping to use the money for a turbo!

Gordon -
I think this is just about my favorite post on this thread. The reasons:
- Your truck's a year newer than mine - a good looker
- My second favorite color (045 white still rules)
- You have your **** together and follow directions (all fields filled out)
- And you have the best possible reason to have a 6X series - safely hauling our future to the beach!
Just set a course of 320 degrees and don't stop until you almost hit the NW corner of continental USA.
PS No - it never rains here....much.

We have beaches on the left coast as well. MOF (middle of Florida) to WTFAW (where the **** are we?) aka Whidbey Island, WA is only 3,100 miles.

Thank you.
Once I get her all sorted out, I'm sure I'll be setting courses all over.
I'll make sure to include that one as well.
And I have to agree, white (and tan) are my two favorites
PS: It's been raining and blowing like holy hell here all day long thanks to T/S Andrea, with a little localized flooding.
This thing moves through it like it's in it's element.
Allowed me the ability to pick up my granddaughter and haul her around town (and down by the beach for dinner) in total safety!
It's days like this that I really LOVE my Landcruiser!
