Who are you? Who Who ...
 

I woke up in a Soho doorway ...

Hello everyone, John here ... - I'm new, not only here, but in the FJ world. Been reading a lot of different forums ... this is
the first one that let me in so far ... haha

I've wanted an FJ since they rolled off the assembly lines years back, but everything was against me at the time. I just bought a 2007, 6MT, with 63k on it, and a 60k extended warranty ... picked it up for $20k, in Columbus, Ohio ...

I've got quite a bit to learn ... many upgrades are planned. Mostly do smaller/cheaper ones to start out, then move on to the pricey & time consuming items ...

I'll do my best to get pics on here, but I don't own a PC, and I've yet to find one of these sites that let you upload from a phone.

Either way, you all will see my FJ go from stock to a lot of mods. It's gonna be a fun ride, so hop in and enjoy the ride.

I tried to copy single image URLs, but it wouldn't cooperate.

Welcome John, glad you made it over!

Hey all - any issues seeing my photo album? Just wanted to make sure that the all important pics are visible. - JB

Welcome to the forum!

Link works just fine.
Nice pics!

Thanks, all! I'm digging the site!! I'll be here a lot .. until you all get annoyed and throw me out ... LOL

Welcome and congrats on achieving a great goal....yup I see ur pics just fine..

Welcome aboard. A who fan. I just drove through Kentucky just a few hours ago. Just to make sure, so your warranty that you got on the FJ, what is it exactly? Most millage based warranties are from the original date of purchase. If that is the case, your warranty expired 3k miles ago.

Capt - I bought Toyota's extended warranty from them. $3k, 5yr/60k ... effective from when I drove it off the lot. I'm fully covered door everything ... even rental car, if I have to get the FJ services. It's a pretty sweet deal.:)

Well right on then.

Hell yeah ... that was included in the overall purchase. Given the estimated value of vehicle, versus what paid, it was a STEAL!

I payed $500 for my powertrain warranty. At the time of purchase it equated out to a 4 year 55,000 mile powertrain warranty. I used it earlier this year of a transmission replacement. So it's already paid for it's self.

Nice. I'm hoping as I get into the regular maintenance, that I don't discover any major issues. Even if I do ... WARRANTY ... haha

Welcome, John!

The pics look good! Glad you've got that beer safely buckled in!

You should be able to get the photobucket app for your phone. That will let you upload from your phone.

Tom - thanks for the heads up. I actually uploaded with no issues. Newer android based phones seem to have better overall functionality.

New pics coming in the next few days ... side step/rails/nerfs are going on!!
