I used to have a jeep, I got rid of it last year. I'm thinking you had a nice built up 4-runner?


I've only had the Ex for a few months. Another guy here (hasteranger) lives in CT also.

I saw this over on the facesbook, is this anyone here? It sure is a nice looking Ex, except for those dang mirrors! I mean honestly, who would want something like that?

Got my tuner from Mike's Five Star. Super easy to do.
I'm using the 87 economy tuning right now. I love the way it shifts! Wooo!

Can't wait to try out the 91 octane tune.

Archion, Snowseeker, Living Large, mecdac off the top of my flat top head.

Seems more people put them on than take them off, so the number is growing and we shall soon overtake you.

Um, me! annnnnnd a majority of Ex owners. Not only do you get SO MUCH more vision of whats behind you, but they looks AWESOME and update the looks of the truck 10 fold



So, this spring i have 2 windshields to replace(Ex and F-150), this mild winter is much to blame. I'm not the only one that took notice though! I was also surprised to see the street sweepers out soooo early.

Winter? - YouTube
Sorry guys, I forgot to hit the sarcasm button... As for the Alaska windshield dilemma, I remember those days, they say the average life of one up there is a year, I was grateful that ours lasted the whole four year tour.

I've been driving the Ex for a few days and forgot how annoying it's crack is. At least my F-150 had it happen just a tad over the wipers so you don't notice it as much.

I'll still take the gravel over salt!

On the way home tonight, notice anything absent? Other then regard for the speed limit haha

Probably the people that made them and the thousands that bought them.. Here is my opinion of the wheels though;
