Hey all!
My names Tyler, not slug (curve ball, I know)
I've worked my way to the glorious 15 post limit to be able to respectfully create my own thread. I mainly just want to use this for myself to track the progress and remember the little things while building up my realistic dream vehicle to my desire.
Let's jump back a little bit;
My love for Toyota was first formulated by my 2007 FJ cruiser. I purchased it in 2010 while I was enlisted in the military. Bone stock, OEM everything, with minor upgrades (TRD exhaust, etc)
First upgrade was a light bar with some ProComp halogen lights. (Photo was taken the first time it's seen snow. Was driving from my hometown in California to my first duty station in Missouri.)
Some time later, light bars, DeMello Baja Loop Bumper (one of the first ones ever made. Shout out to Jason!!)
Icon Stage 1
When I separated from the military upon my contract being up, my wife and I knew we didn't want to stay in Missouri. No offense to anyone in the Midwest but it just wasn't for us.
We knew we wanted to be back on the West where our family is located in California. But nothing else was waiting for us there, so we coin tossed the idea of Washington, Colorado, or Portland. We decided Washington and began our trek.
To down size I sold the FJ and just rode my motorcycle for a good amount of time.
