Talking My Craigslist find

While taking a short (very short) YotaTech break this morn, I hit Craigslist to find this: Find. It was barely posted last night, and now they are in my garage. I had to stop and get batteries to get you guys pics:









I also learned these are heavier than listed on Interco's site (53lbs). Oh well. My wheels should be in tomorrow. I'll be putting the 1" BL soon and then I'll post some more pics.

I pronounce it like Texas with an R. TREXAS.
I don't know if that's the correct way.
I've heard people pronounce it like TEE-ARR-EX-USS.

Lol... dude, I've been browsing for about 45 days. I couldn't believe it when I saw them. They are a pretty rare find, especially in that shape. Craigslist is a great site.

Thanks, ya, I know. How funny is that, that I was just askin you about this stuff in the morning. I knew he was gona sell them by today, so as soon as I got off work, I went to see them. He said, he had a lot of emails, but I was the only one who responded to his emails in reasonable time. I'm hopin these should last a while. I have the stock 29"ers for winter and I have 4 vehicles so I drive my Runner about 8K miles a year.
