Come on Lance. Don't you know what goes on here? J/K

I think he even posted about it, or at least had a pic of the cake topper.

I am looking for the posts... I at the very least mentioned it in a PM to a member, which YOU can see here Lance. http://www.ultimateyota.com/index.php?option=com_smf&Itemid=26&topic=9815.msg98067#msg98067

Here is the thread about my grooms cake topper. http://www.ultimateyota.com/index.php?option=com_smf&Itemid=26&topic=9760.msg97472

So, in short, yes, I did get married.

And yes, she picked it, she wants to ditch her Ford Ranger and step up to something else. She originally wanted a Wrangler JK, then an FJ Cruiser, and has now definitely decided upon a 91-95 FZJ80. Going to look at a 94 this weekend.

well budget is right around 5K, so 94 or 95 is about as close as we can get. You want to give ma GREAT late congrats for my wedding?

:hillbill: Pay the difference between a 94 and a 97. :hillbill:
