[Ninja Cruiser100]

Hi guys. Just put a deposit down on a 1 owner 2013 with 70k. If it passes inspection it will be mine on Monday.

I look forward to sharing stories with you guys and any advice you can share. I have a 2000 LC I’ve had since new that will be going to my home in Nashville.

Will just leave this....

This guy talks a lot, but says some idiotic things. One of the first comments, “This is the only one in the world.” In reference to the front camera relocation to the center of the ARB instead of the side.

What is this on mine?

Truck is spending the weekend at Main Line Overland, having the RLC rear bumper and OEM front spacers installed. Wow they have some amazing rigs there.

Let me know how you like the work done by Main Line Overland. I’m thinking about having them do some work on my LC.

The button on my rear hatch stopped working. Haven't been able to open my trunk for the past 2 weeks. I'm trying to sell the 200 next week so this is frustrating since the rig is otherwise perfect.

Tried to get it fixed under warranty. Dealership said no and wanted over $500 for parts and labor.

IT TOOK ME LESS THAN 1 MINUTE TO SWAP THE PART OUT. TWO SCREWS. THE PART WAS $67 SHIPPED.

****. THE. STEALERSHIP.

Will do. They had some very impressive rigs in there, they gave me a tour of the shop. They're just finishing up a build on a massive Ram with a big expo box, 41" tires, it was really nice but I bet big $$$. They tend to push the Dobinsons products, but will install anything you want. Super nice FJ40 sitting in the parking lot when I was there, waiting on some engine work.

BTW they have a Dobinsons front bumper for a 100 series sitting in the shop right now they are trying to sell cheap, $1000. It has a very minor scratch on the front from shipping.

CBI and Dissent now in the 200 series offerings. Exciting to watch a market expand real time

Not sure if you’re referring to the CBI 200 series front bumper? I’ve seen it posted before but thought it was a one-off, but I may be mistaken.

Agreed, exciting to see the market expand.

The paint on these cruisers are awesome. Takes a beating, and with some dual action orbital buffing, all is right in the world again.

My wife was appalled at the pinstripes I came home with. Told her it'd be just fine. Whew

Paint looks fresh!

I use a set of convex mirrors like you. A must have IMO.

They look a little larger than 3.75" mirrors (the largest, non HD truck mirror size I can find on Amazon). Do you know the manufacturer?

 

[TeCKis300]

Thanks!

Yeah, I really enjoy the larger convex mirrors, especially for towing. These are indeed 3.75" mirrors too - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004MDZ5NI/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Happy Thanksgiving to all.

Since we 200 owners get s--t from the other LC owners for having mall cruisers, accused of wearing cashmere sweaters while driving, and being all around uppity folks.

How about some uppity bourbon for the holidays?

Since you are a pro can I bring mine over?

Nice. Only two more months and I'm going to destory a bottle of McCallan 15.

My 200 is a beast in the snow.

@Markuson saw this on Facebook and thought of your velcro walls.

I wonder how old I’ll be when someone does a 200 series SAS.

Just a friendly reminder to everyone who parks outside that this is the season where rodents will build a nest in your coolant valley (under in the intake manifold) and chew through your knock sensor harness. Has happened to many on here, including me.

To avoid the costly tear down, I suggest throwing a few moth balls in there monthly until the weather warms up. Cheap insurance.
