    It’s probably one of the most beautiful places on the planet, run by some of the dumbest people in history.

    Wow!
    Sure am glad it's clear that I'm not a CALIFORNIA native. Was only there because of a corporate transfer.

    Nice man, congrats! That Cement color looks great (similar, but so much better than the greenish tint of Lunar Rock)!

    Don’t mind them. At least you didn’t say you had a great time in “Frisco”. ;)

    My wife has been in California forever and she calls it “the city,” which is what I call it, sometimes she calls it San Fran, which I think is weird.

    Yea we call it the City also. San Fran is just odd, usually what we hear our visiting friends/family call it. Frisco is what the cool kids call it

    Congratulations man that looks awesome. I wish I could have got that color in an ORP.

    I plan to keep my new ORP like that in garage and only driven dry days and stored in winter. I have a few water spots in frame from shipping and will hand clean. I am crazy and ordered it when it would get shipped in summer too versus winter.

    I will probably only put 1,000-1,500 miles per year on

    I like the tire lettering out for some reason. I have been thinking about doing that when I get tires for my truck. It reminds me of my tonka trucks and how unstoppable they were as a kid. Other than astetics is there any reason not to do it?

    Absolutely
    I always liked the look of the white letters on some of the vehicles I've owned, however, if you plan on going off-road much, they won't look cool for very long.

    Hi there, nice rig and the price is right for the times. Looks like it's optioned out with the X-REAS shock system. And the color really stands out!! Wish you many years of enjoyment.


    How about you please refrain from negative comments on where other people live. That is completely uncalled for. Not a funny joke at all. I came to this forum to enjoy chatting with like members of a common vehicle. I imagine targeting threads to demean, detract or degrade from the topic or someones place of origin is not allowed here.

    Long enough, as a matter of fact...too long.
    Now I live in Utopia, comparing the two. Cannot beat the weather out there though!

    Oops!! I just realized by your shocks are really nice Bilstein's with reservoirs.

    The TRD Pros are really loaded with some nice features.
