Toyota ups power, fuel economy for 2010 FJ Cruiser

The FJ Cruiser might not be Toyota’s hottest seller at the moment – sales are down 56.8 percent to just 7,148 FJ Cruisers so far this year – but the Japanese automaker hopes that a few changes to its engine and suspension are the kick-in-the-pants the SUV needs. Power is up 19 horsepower, yet the 2010 FJ Cruiser will be rated at 1 mpg higher than the outgoing model.
Toyota says it has added dual variable valve timing and roller rocker arms to the FJ Cruiser’s 4.0-liter V6. The engine is also shared with the Tacoma, though Toyota says that small pickup rolls into the new model year unchanged. Horsepower will be rated at 258 and fuel economy should be up as high as 18 city and 22 highway on the two-wheel-drive version.

To top it all off, Toyota says that some minor suspension modifications have dropped the turning circle by more than a foot and a new Army Green exterior color will be on offer.

Prices are up $360 across the board.

The beauty of these blogging engines and CMS platforms is the lack of limitations and ease of manipulation that allows developers to implement rich content and 'skin' the site in such a way that with very little effort one would never notice what it is making the site tick all without limiting content and effectiveness.

Great post! I am just starting out in community management/marketing media and trying to learn how to do it well - resources like this article are incredibly helpful. As our company is based in the US, it?s all a bit new to us. The example above is something that I worry about as well, how to show your own genuine enthusiasm and share the fact that your product is useful in that case.

This is such a great resource that you are providing and you give it away for free. I love seeing websites that understand the value of providing a quality resource for free. It is the old what goes around comes around routine. Did you acquired lots of links and I see lots of trackbacks??

I am not much of a guy who thinks in so deeply about web design but I think your post had some valid points in it. Like designers are forced to design stuff within the limited code available and not go beyond it, their innovation is somewhat limited but still I think Web Design won't die! I agree that Amazon and other some big sites won't have a blog but now a days it's very important to have some sort of option available so people can quickly communicate their thoughts. I think Amazon if wants to shift it to that, they can get a customized CMS for themselves.
