New FJ in the family!

[offroadkid]

I'm surprised and excited at the same time to hear that my Dad and Step-mom are buying a 2010 Trail Teams Edition FJ Cruiser!! He is driving down to the office in the Bay Area today and will pick it up and drive it back Wednesday and stay the night at our house before driving it home in the storm to their house in
Genoa, Nevada!

I've always wanted to take them out on expeditions while visiting them, but He
has a Range Rover Sport that I'm concerned about being able to make it where we want to take them, and my Step-mom's Lincoln truck (which she is replacing with the FJ) well, do I need to explain?!! They want something that can make it
around in the snow and up their driveway, as well as something to go exploring
with!

I will send him a link to ih8mud, as well a our local tlcwagons.org and can't wait
for them to become part of the great community we are! I know they will enjoy
meeting everyone and joining in on the adventures!

I'll get pics on Wednesday!

Sounds fun. That is pretty cool that your parents want to get into something like this. Are they going to be joining the forum?

 

[Mtbcoach]

Nice, good direction for sure.

Yes, encourage them to join as well as finding your local TLCA group to get involved with.

And, of course, pics are required...

So where are these alleged pics?

Boone! He got to my place last night when it was dark! So he'll have to post-up pics of it now, but he did let me drive it to dinner and back last night!

He just washed it and parked it in the garage for my Mom to see, (she wasn't home when he got there)! He called and already set-up an appt. to have Sirius set up with the factory head unit as his first mod!

Sorry I know these threads are useless w/o pics!!

Okay, well here is one pic he sent me from his driveway. The Sandstorm looks a lot better in person.

Looks like an awesome rig! I really like the sandstorm and the hood black out is really cool. Get em signed up on MUD!
