3. I've owned my 97 since late June of 2015. Its my 3rd 80 as my last two were both 93's with factory lockers. I finally found one I can't let go.
4. I bought it a little over three months ago with 238k, It now has 248xxx and going up every day.
5. Haven't gone too crazy yet, so my Arb compressor and pump up kit takes the cake for now.
6. So far the 80's been used for overland, plan on also using it as a back country snowboard rig and for music festivals

Looking great. I know a lot of people don't like the factory red color but I dig it. Yours looks very clean.

Thanks, Adam. it's my 2nd favorite color, I like the moonglow pearl best. In the 80's I've had 2 white, one dark emerald pearl, and 2 med read pearl. Had a brown FJ60 and a river rock green 100 series. I've never had a 40 so that's on the list. Don't really care what color I get but I really like them in tan.
