Hello to All:
About a year ago I went to the Miami Auto Show and saw the FJ Cruiser. I really liked the look and functionality, but the two tone paint was not my mug of beer. I’ve been a full size domestic pick up truck guy for over 20 years. Anyway, a few weeks ago I saw a TRD FJC and that pushed me over the edge to seek one out for myself. I went home and did an internet search of South Florida Toyota dealers to see if any were available. I found two, one was a demo and the other was being purchased. I contacted the dealer for an out the door price on the demo and he told me it was already bought, but that the Ft. Lauderdale car show just got over the past weekend and Toyota had dropped a FJC TRD off that was displayed at the show. Needless to say I scurried over to the dealer and bought it on the spot. Well, you may be wondering what a flat-lander from south Florida would want a marvel of engineering such as a FJC for. First of all I had to convince my wife that with the oceans rising because of global warming and the monsoon season ready to begin in June, we may have to ford many intersections and Interstate highways, Also, tooling around with her in her 350z Roadster is not good for my inner child, and I know I’ll have to check the woods out behind my property in the Georgia mountains.
I’m glad I found this site and hope to gain some insight from everyone.
