pegasis- Yeah I about, um, wet myself when I saw that article. Problem is I haven't found money that grows on trees yet. If I had that kind of money I think I'd go crazy, the problem you run into is nothing becomes good enough. If I could do ANYTHING, I probably wouldn't have an 80 series, or a 100 series for that matter. I'd probably get an old Series II Land Rover (go ahead an burn me) and build it to the gills. And then I'd have my jeep for trash days, and my LX570 for those days when I just want to relax.

My father is in the midst of his mid-life I think (well-deserved) and in 2 years he's gone through 4 sports cars, each one confoundedly more expensive than the next. He's well off, I'm bleeding my way through grad school.

Point is, really sorry for the rant but I've been having an inner monologue about this since the article debuted on my porch, that I got this truck because it's pretty damn good at everything it does OUT-OF-THE-BOX. I started this thread with ideas of grandeur and lots of bells and whistles, some of which I did get and really enjoy, but others which I honestly doubt if I'll ever need. Is it good enough now?

PS- I finally got my ARB Compressor installed wondering if it was worth the buck. Well I got a good deal on it and Ive actually helped a couple stranded motorists with under-inflated spares on the side of the road (ive been looking reeeeal hard) and it does an AWESOME job of filling up the shoes from about 20 PSI to 35 in short minutes.
