Hadn't looked at any pix of this yet, but now I went and found
some. Weird-lookin' beast. Kind of a cross between a cherokee
and an H3.

FJ is the code name for Land Cruiser.

And from what I understand, they are trying to make a retro FJ40 (Land Cruiser of the 50s).

Saw one at the dealer today. They had a black Package "C" in the showroom. I didn't see the speakers in the roof that are supposed to have come with the FJammer sound package. Anybody have any idea?

They're invisible. The two transducers are mounted above the headliner and use the headliner as a diaphragm. I haven't heard one yet, my Voodoo Blue 6M/T is due in late this week or early next. All FJ's come standard with the system.

I'll be exporting mine to Canada after a little play time, saving someone thousands and making a little in the process. Toyota charges $3,850 more for equivalent FJ's in Canada.


I've driven one and think they're so ugly they're cute, like a Bulldog. Very capable, versatile truck. It's built on a modified Prado/GX/4Runner frame. It's the only Toyota/Lexus available with an M/T, center locking Torsen and RR locker. It ran the Rubicon stock. Should more than meet my mild 4WD needs.

I saw one parked on Myrtle in downtown Monrovia earlier today. Silver one, if I remember correctly.

Saw a black one at the dealership. I really like everything about it except for those taillights... they protrude outwards way too much.

There's a Yellow one here on the shore with the Convenience package and Upgrade package #2 for $31k and I have to say that I'm in love.
