Thanks Scott... I thoroughly enjoyed your coverage last year and I am already enjoying this year's. Great info and lots to drool over. The FJ Cruiser is even more desireable when I see that ARB is working with Toyota on a bumper.

Thanks for the coverage. I'm glad to see that ARB has a bumper already made for the FJ that doesn't exist, but still not a production one for a '03 4runner. Oh well, it looks like they have one on the way.

Keep the coverage coming!!

No, which is just crazy. The one on display has been modified to be vertical, and it greatly improves the appearance IMO.

That MittyBilt SRC bumper for the 05 is pretty sick.

Is that the megacruiser in the picture of the FJ's open rear door?

This is a really nice 4Runner. The ARB trucks are always first class

my first guess would be a little storage compartment, possible they have an optional GPS that mounts in there?
