weighed noticeably more than Jeeps. As I recall, the straight 6 in it was said to be a copy of the Chevy 6 - and some parts were interchangeable?

I was going to post this Jeep in Post A Pic. Gotta say that my pucker factor was pretty high on this.

That is the real deal. FJ-40. There is a place here in Salida that restores them. Very capable off road vehicle.

I owned a 2004 J-100 Land Cruiser in Lexus livery aka LX-470. It had the variable height suspension and would go pretty much anywhere I wanted to go, but was pretty heavy and cumbersome.

That Jeep footage is crazy. Was that you? Hope you had an inclinometer!
