    SOOOOO True.


    IMO it is a good move. The S/C whine is insanely addictive, and not to mention these motors are proving to be near bullet proof over its younger brother variant.

    I took it for a test drive this morning. Loved it! My only concern is there being enough room in the backseat for both kids. Will have to go back for a test fit I guess.

    I feel the same way. You guys are going to think i'm nuts but I've driven 2 FJ Cruisers this week. 90 percent sure nothing will come from it but I've reluctantly sat though negotiations on both of them... In the end its all about what you want lol.

    It is pretty nice, the only problem is no heated seats! Other than that it is great. I guess there is a retro kit for that, but it involves a little bit of wiring. Not sure how adventurous I am feeling. Was nice driving with the top down though.

    Needs an intake. Loved the exhaust too. Of course a new exhaust would sound sweet as well.

    Make sure you find one that is either modded the way you want it with records showing the mods were done correctly or find one that has not been modded at all. There are lots of options out there so do not settle for something that is almost what you want.

    The standard white on the roof and mirror caps is not the same as Pepper White... just an FYI, if you didn't know.
