got a text yesterday at 2:30am that my buddy needed help. i call him and he tells me hes in Chino and his jeep he just bought is stuck in mud past the axle and the Bronco cant pull him out. so i jump in my Grandpas 1500 Z71 and head out there. 45 mins later im following the bronco down a trail and into a runoff area where i see this jeep stuck in the mud with a jack under the rear end. we get it jacked up and push the rear wheel onto "hard" mud but it doesnt help at all. so i hook up to the front of the jeep, put the chevy in 4Low and pull it out. thats when i realized the truck was now covered in mud and its 4:30am... it hit me then i need my own truck i can take at anytime and beat the hell out of instead of always borrowing my grandpas Chevy enerytime i want to do some wheeling.

so i went to the auto mall in Claremont. hit up toyota, looked at the tacomas and tundras ended up testing an FJ Cruiser... long story short.

heres my new ride.
