Welcome to the club Abigail. Please tell us more about yourself and post up some pictures of you Land Cruiser.
Hey, thank you all for the warm welcome! I posted an introduction in the Introduce Yourself thread before this was started so I'll copy that here:
Just moved to AZ several months the ago, and very excited to find this group! I caught the Cruiser bug a few years back when my bf bought an 80 and I fell in love (with the truck
). Spent a while looking for the perfect rig (living in NV at the time), scouring CA, CO, AZ etc to find a gem. I got extremely lucky when I found a guy selling his wife's 2004 101k CA/NV-owned LC only 8 miles from my house (she had upgraded to the 200). I've had it now a bit over a year, and never once regret selling the Civic coupe (okay, tbh I do miss the gas mileage, but the trade-off in safety+fun is worth it).
I've had this thing for a bit over a year and am slowly starting to learn how to do minor maintenance work on it myself (having no auto mechanics knowledge previously) thanks to this forum and friends, and it's a fun project. Not kidding myself, though, I'll be taking this thing to Camelback for most of its care!
Will be modding somewhat (Gamiviti rack is on order!), but this is also my DD so I probably won't go too crazy right now. I'm not very experienced at extreme wheeling yet, so mods to this will be more for excursion/camping utility at the moment.
I met some of you guys at my first ever 100's in the Hills this year and had so much fun I've decided I need those types of people/activities in my life more than once a year, so here I am! Very much looking forward to meeting you all and learning about the best places for adventure around here. I'll also be trying to convince the bf that clubs are fun and he should bring along the 80...
