Written by FJC Magazine   
Summer is in full swing and all around the country FJ Cruiser Owners & Enthusiasts are taking to the trails! In just a couple of weeks many of us will be making our way to scenic Ouray, Colorado for the 3rd Annual FJ Summit.

While we've been preparing for the summit, we spent plenty of time making sure the July issue of FJC Magazine is full of great articles & ideas for you to get your truck ready for the summer. We've got a new couple of new contributors this issue as well. Many of you know Athena Innis from Ouray & Moab, she not only wrote an article for us this time around, but her BC FJ Cruiser is the featured rig! Al (aka SwiCago) also shares a little information about his DIY “Ghetto” Roof Top Tent with us.coverweb

2010 FJ Cruiser Specs Revealed? PDF Print E-mail
Written by Shane Williams   
According to a PDF posted on the www.toyota-4runner.org website, the 2010 FJ Cruiser will include a couple of changes.
The first thing that jumps off the page is the loss of VooDoo Blue as a color option, and the addition of "Army Green". What shade of green is still up for speculation, we're hoping it looks something like this:

Other changes include an updated 4.0L engine that increases horsepower by 20hp, yet decreases torque by 8ft/lbs. The document also states a higher EPA mileage estimate (a max of +2mpg for the 4X2 FJ Cruiser), a slightly smaller turning radius, and a larger winshield washer tank.
The document also re-states the specs for what was supposed to be the 2009 Trail Teams Special Edition, that will now be a 2010. This is the all Sandstorm FJ we spoke about last July. We're still not super excited about the TT, but it'll be nice to see a few more specialty FJ's on the road.

NOTE: This information has not been verified and may or may not be accurate. If it is, it looks like 2010 will be a great model year for the FJ Cruiser.
