I gues "technically" , under those pretences the 4runner AND GX are LC's as well ? I think we are preaching to the choir, on this one !! So then, where does the PT Cruiser fit in all of this ??


Not only that, but the prefix "FJ" or "FZJ" or "UZJ" denotes the engine in the vehicle. So the FJC should be something like the GRJ-12x if it were a 120-series landcruiser. Just tells ya how much marketers know about LC history.
