New Guy Intro

[pescado]

Hello all,

Wanted to introduce myself. New to this site and to Land Cruisers in general (the last 8 months). However, my rig is not new to this site.... as I am part owner of a 1995 FZJ80 that has made several appearances on this forum.

If it looks familiar, its because it primarily belongs to my wife. She's been on this forum before, her name is @Aloha Jen.....you may not recognize her as she is kinda shy and doesn't like posing for and posting a lot of pictures!!!! Kidding, she's awesome and is very proud of her Land Cruiser and the work we've been able to accomplish.
She has had nothing but great things to say about this forum. We are total amateurs, so this site has helped us immensely. Any time we have had a mechanical issue or wanted to do some preventative maintenance, Jenny has always had a "how to" print out or posted thread from this forum up on the ipad when doing the work. Very impressed with the amount of knowledge on this site and really appreciate the help/support you've provided for my wife and I over the last few months. Anyways, since there are now two Land Cruisers parked in my garage, I thought it was long overdue that I get on here and make an intro.
Thanks.

Welcome! This is a great place to be. Love Jen's cruiser and her posts. I'll check out the 60 section to see your new ride

The bastige not only has an amazingly pretty (and smart) wife, he has a diesel 60 as well.

Welcome to the site! I've really enjoyed reading about your Land Cruiser experience and getting to know Jen. She is a very good writer, btw, and I write professionally.

The 80 is white, but the HJ60 is sort of a weird light gray.

Thanks. Depending on ones perspective, we are either off to a great start or things are getting out of hand quickly!

It's OK to post pics of your 60 in the 80 section & a link to introduce yourself.

Welcome! Feel free to look me up if you ever make it over to the Big Island.

Welcome! I was born in Honolulu and raised in Ewa Beach but have been living out on the east coast for over a decade. I used to wheel my '89 Toyota pickup at Onuela Beach Park (Hau Bush), West loch, and Kaena point 16yrs ago. There has been a lot of development since then so some trails probably don't exist anymore. And at the same time, it looks like they opened some trails that were always gated. Anyway, nice 60!
I know you won't build it like the typical Hawaiian truck, lifted 20" with mud boggers and the front driveshaft pulled out.

I always thought aloha Jen was a shared account between her and her husband but with the image of a her to help gget questions answered quicker and better...

anyway, welcome, the rides and the natural beauty of Hawaii are enviable.

Congratulations and Welcome!

Now, I will state what everyone else is thinking, but not saying.........

You ( @pescado ) can stay quiet and take pics of your wife ( @alohajen ) working on her truck (or your truck) and innocently ask about how to do stuff. You will then get fast, responsive answers, and many folks will go above and beyond to make sure she gets what she needs, thus, solving your needs as well.

For you.......Not so much. Please don't post pics of your hairy toes in flip flops (like @NLXTACY ) cause we don't wanna see them.

Tell Jen we say "Hi!" (All the horny perverted old men on 'Mud.) Good to hear from you once. It's even better to hear from and see pics of Jen doing what looks like work.

 

[NLXTACY]

The truth has been known for awhile

And what the heck are wrong with my damn flip flops?! They are the black ones, you know, evening wear.
