FJ Cruisers of Northern California

New guy In santa cruz

Thought i would join and say hi. I have money down on a '13 iceberg manual that i should be picking up in 3 to 4 weeks (Also getting a '13 Rav4 for my wife). I am excited i have wanted one since they came out but work driving requirements have forced more economical smaller cars on me that is about to change and will be using my wifes '97 civic as my work beater.

I cannot wait to start wheeling,meet some new people and enjoy a new slower pace and change from Autox and recerboy stuff Plus it fits my mountain biking,shooting,Ham radio and other hobbies a little better.

I plan on mods out of the gate and have a budget of about $6g to get started needless to say i will be posting allot for help on mod choices although i have a pretty good idea on what i want but "need input" lol.

Thanks and i look forward to getting to know you guy's and gal's.

Sante Adarius would be a good spot for a meet and greet in Santa Cruz.

Welcome from Capitola! Rustic is awesome and I would be down for a meet there. I live right around the corner and it would be cool to meet some of the local FJ members.

I'll be there Sunday. Adele and Tim love the FJ. They are looking for a new car. Let's convince them on Sunday at 5.

I was busy with Mother's day dinners as well and couldn't make it. Anyone there on Sat in a silver FJ? I saw one when I was driving by on the freeway.

It's tucked behind the old Moto building. It's an inspiring brew destination.
