From stadiums to deserts, Toyota has been crushing it in off-road racing since the early 1980s. Toyota Racing Development (TRD) knows what it takes to win and just loves to get their hands on a new vehicle and make it scream. The TRD Special Edition FJ Cruiser is no exception.

Suspension: TRD tuned with 46mm monotube Bilstein® shock absorbers for enhanced off-road handling performance.

Wheels: TRD 16-in. gunmetal gray aluminum alloy wheels.

Tires: Race-proven 32-in. BFGoodrich® All-Terrain T/A® KO tires.

Exhaust: TRD performance exhaust system.

Drivetrain: 239-hp V6, available 6-speed manual transmission with Quickshifter, or 5-speed electronically controlled automatic overdrive transmission, synchronized Active Traction Control (A-TRAC) and electronic locking rear differential.

Miscellaneous: Rock rails, TRD Special Edition badging and Black Diamond paint, with color-keyed roof.

Production run: 3200 units.

This one is the special edition...and as it says...only 3200 were produced. It drives like a sedan. The special edtion also has the black top...which I prefer to the two tone version with the white top.

Cheap rice burner.

I have a good clue what that LC cost. Used to sell them when I you could even get your hands on one. They are almost impossible to find, or used to be. They used to be very underpowered. But very sturdy.

They are an elite 4x4 SUV. They don't come off the clearance rack.

I think Lexus sells an higher model but doubt there is much difference.

I like both kinds. I like loud city noises...and wide open spaces. I love being on city streets...and dig rural places. It's all good. Plus, the city at first will give me a broader opportunity to meet a variety of people. I think I'll end up in either Highlands Ranch, Longmont, or maybe out to Boulder.

Iam native here man let me know if i can help just off the top i would stay away from highlands ranch (all the house are pretty much the same) no originality IMO and the house are really close together (i hate that) don't over look lakewood and wheatridge for example. I live right behind jeffco stadium/park so i can sit out back and watch softball games/basebal/little leaguefootball/soccer ect all summer and most of the fall. plus i can walk over to jeffco and catch the local high school action anytime i want.

I like Longmont. I'd take a look at Ft. Collins also. Wouldn't touch Highlands ranch with a 10 ft pole personally. They'd probably try to fine you if you stuck your Broncos flag on your house up there.

Good thing I don't live in Denver with a hell raiser like you driving around. lol

Highlands ranch= the Californication of Colorada perfected! What an eyesore!

The Longmont area is nice and if you venture further north you'll get better deals. Niwot is a nice little communtiy which is slowly growing, and it's not Boulder which IMO is a plus!

I really like Longmont, but we'll see....I need to get settled first.

Now your're talking.....If you need a tour of the boat let me know.

If Steamboat is in your sights I wouldn't wait. Scrape up a few bucks and rent that fixer upper! It will be ready for you when you want to make the move or sell it off for that dream pad. The market up here has been moving at a steady 15-20% for years with no sign of let up. There are a couple nice bedroom communities that have some nice pads for what you would pay in a rough area of Aurora believe it or not.

We're getting hammered at the ranch right now. The board is in the shop getting tuned and the big dump is on! They are talking 2-3ft on the mountain.

Garcia I live in Platte Park. That is S of Downtown near Wash Park and DU. Cool as hell neighborhood to be in. I went to school in Boulder and this neighborhood reminded me a lot of that area. Minus the hippies and trust fund rats. Captiol Hill is cool too just watch out for that new ride. Might attract some opportunists to take a look inside.
