Hi all,

I am new owner of a 1989 FJ1200 and glad to be part of the group.  22k miles. It already has some mods done to it.  Exhaust and re-jetting of carbs.  It is a LOT OF FUN.

Welcome.
The glass is not half full, it was engineered with a 2X safety factor.

Dean,

As long as we use blue, black, red, white, etc. and keep it simple, it's all good.

If we start using their official names, Silky White, Bluish Black Metallic, Quartz Silver, Stormy Red, Passion Red, Marble Silver, Shiny Black, Light Grayish Blue Metallic, Dull Purplish Blue Metallic, Deep Purplish Blue Metallic, Dark Purplish Blue Metallic, Dark Violet Cocktail, etc. then it'll become a Cluster FUBAR, eh?  :sarcastic:

Just love what ya' got.
