I am at 121k miles now and will be doing all the maintenance you did to yours and then some. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cyclops.gif" alt="" /> But.. It's a shame I like my Gen 2.5 too much.. it's the same color scheme as yours but with Grey leather.

Wheeler
My Montero is from MN so there is cosmetic rust underneath, and I took out the 3rd row and they have been covered in the garage since then. To be honest I would say my truck isn't worth $4000 but it might be worth more on the coast. So how much more with the ARB?

Haven't got around to buying it yet, but I can hook you up with a guy that will sell you one for $800 cash. You'd have to pick it up in Raliegh, NC though.

I was about to play a cruel April fools joke, but I couldn't haha. My mom has a gen III, and tho they are nice, I feel the earlier models are more capable offroad. But could be the "look" your after too. Good luck with your search.

Me too and for some reason I just wouldn't feel as bad denting or scratching a Gen 2. It's easier to make bumpers or sliders since there's a frame to work off of. Its already got one locker in it and I like the squarer body style.

Oh, and I have a bouncy seat for a Gen2!

I do not really feel bad about denting AND scratching mine.

Just not like the rest of the AZ Crew guys. They've REALLY let go of their feelings.

Kinda funny; but I started out with a Gen 1, moved up to a Gen 2, then a Gen 3, (which was stolen), and went to a Gen 2.5.
