FJ Cruisers of Northern California

SF East Bay

Hey guys... just picked up my FJ on New Years (great way to start 2012). Very interested in learning about the vehicle and its capabilities. Have never been on a trail yet but very keen to try it out.

Welcome aboard. This forum is a good place to start. Keep an eye on the "Events" tab.

Welcome and congrats on your new FJ! You should be warned that you will now find your bank account short of funds as you start modding your new baby. Yeah, yeah, I know, you are pretty happy with it right now... So was I. Then I decided on new wheels. Then tires. Then the "blackout mod". Then a new bumper, electronics, armor, skids, roof rack, ladder, lift kit... It NEVER ends!!!! But you'll have a blast meeting good folks here and learning tons of stuff about your new rig. Watch the forum posts and look through the older stuff too. Lots of great info and help here!

Welcome aboard Rob. Really like the army green FJ's. Post up some pictures of the "before" as it is rare they stay that way for long. Anyway, as sonof40 says keep an eye on the events page for meet and greets or runs.

If the timing works out, I still need my mounts chopped. We talked about it but never got around to it... Santa speant his money on my kids this year. The FJ got ripped... Lol!

Santa brought me ridiculously fancy bath products but no FJ goodies. However, I'm up for a newb run. I've only been out twice since I bought my car in August.
