Bill,
i guess its hard for me to look at the new FJ and compare it to any swb or lwb wrangler as it really is closer to the cherokee and/or liberty. As i said the rubi wins hands down but that FJ suprised the heck out of me on Moab Rim.
They definitely can wheel! A FJ on 33 IROC's just sucessfully did Fish East on Thanksgiving weekend.

BTW, it was the NAXJA annual Moab week while i was there. i saw so many BEAUTIFUL XJ's in town, a cherokee fan's fantasy i tell you.
Pics later.
Tom :)


Good to hear Tom, sounds like fun.

Yeah, I know what you mean, but the FJ is yota's biggest and baddest wheeler they put out. So IMO, comparing it to Jeeps grocery getter, is a bit unfair. Really, apples to apples is comparing both companies top, off the shelf 4wd units. Which of course is the wrangler series.
