I was impressed at how quickly the mag got here after I subscribed. I think it was in my mailbox like 3-4 days after I subscribed. I guess they've gotten the shipping issues resolved by now.

I was beginning to get very worried and then I accidentally checked my old email to find out they'd been sending me emails asking for my address as they got it shipped back to them. They resolved it and I am expecting it back in a few days. GREAT SERVICE!!

I knew that already, but I still find myself wanting a new issue, so I know what you are going through

I got my second isssue today!!

Heres what the Nov/Dec issue has:

Breaking news! The 2006 FJ Cruiser was spotted wheeling on the
extremely tough Rubicon trail of northern California and a fellow Toyota
enthusiast snapped photos of it as it passed by! Go to the 4WD Toyota Owner
website to see and read about it! This truck can wheel!

The first issue has been out and the response has been fantastic. We
thank you for the many emails of support, encouragement, and suggestions
and comments. The Nov/Dec issue will be shipping shortly, and you can
see the cover on the main page of the website as well. In this issue:

--Steep and Deep: We Take 4WD Toyotas to the limit! Over twelve pages
of action and tips from Scott Brady and Bill Burke
--Toyota History Lesson: We showcase almost every 4WD Toyota released
in the US (and some abroad)
--Interview and killer action photos of Toyota Trophy Truck racing
legend Ivan "Ironman" Stewart
--The Super Tacoma. Check out this blown and SAS'd Tacoma with a ton of
killer mods
--Nicely built FZJ80 and UZJ100 Land Cruisers
--Land Cruiser legend Marv Spector of Specter Off-Road talks to 4WD
Toyota Owner magazine
--All About Birfields
--Marlin Crawler Roundup on the Rubicon
--All-Pro Offroad Triple X-member
--East Coast Pig Run
--Cruiser Days in Surrey, Canada
--Toyota engine swap guide
--Carburetor tech with Dave Braswell and TCR Performance

and much more!

4WD Toyota Owner will be at the Surf N Turf event Nov. 4-6 at Pismo
Beach, CA. Be sure to meet senior editor Ben Crockett and publisher David
Zartman. Ben will be in his blue 1979 FJ40 and Dave in the Project
FZJ80. It's green with the new Man-A-Fre 4-inch lift kit, 35" Pro Comp Mud
Terrains, Longfields, and more. We'll be shooting the event, so come on
out and support Surf N Turf!

Subscribe now to get the Nov/Dec issue, and please tell all of your
Toyota-owning friends, club members and neighbors about 4WD Toyota Owner.
Thank you and we'll see you on the trails!

after reading the second issue, one thing that comes to mind is the amount of $$$ that goes into some of these rigs you guys off-road. one mention in this issue was around $2,000/corner. now i realize this may be more professional an approach, but i'd really like to know how much investment i'm looking at here.

a lot of you guys are serious, and i know that the sky is probably the limit, but what do some of you have in these yotas?

Hmmm... I had to look to see what you were talking about. The first issue was odd sized, but the second one has the standard magazine aspect ratio. Good eye. They must still be fine tuning at the printers.

The first thing I noticed was that the photos, in particular the ads were of better quality and not as pixelized. All in all, an improvement over the first issues, which was great

a lot, and too much according to the wife (AKA BOSS).

But, if you want to play, you gotta pay, and Wabbit got it right
