'08 FJ price increases $500 5/02

Should help prop up resale a bit:

"The 2008 FJ Cruiser MSRP increases by $500, or 2.1 percent, with a new base MSRP of $23,045..."

Well, my question is, can you afford NOT to get one?

And anyways, if you're buying new...what the heck does 2.1% additional cost matter? If it does, I'd say don't buy the truck. :-)

As far as I know, they haven't had the fender bulge issue since the late '06 productions. All new FJ's should be OK there.
