The FJ Cruiser weighs about 100 pounds more than the Double cab Long bed 4x4 V6 Tacoma believe it or not. The D-cab Tacoma 4x4 V6 weighs about 4150 pounds, the FJ Cruiser a shade under 4300 pounds. That's what happens when you go back to the fully boxed frame.

I heard something on the news a while back that all new SUV's had to have a MPG of over 22mpg. I didnt think this was only in Canada. Has anyone else heard of this? I thought I would bring it up because i figured the fj was a new SUV.
