We reached back into the lingo archives and, for the XPLORE Toyota FJ Cruiser, came up with one vintage word: tuff. The rugged, kinda dangerous profile of this offroad-ready vehicle has the looks for high-style urban cruising, and comes with the gear for real all-terrain adventuring. Taking up the well-revered Toyota Land Cruiser lineage, the FJ is part of Toyota’s XPLORE Adventure Series, a set of staged upgrades that start with Stage 1: leather interiors. Stage 2 options include BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO Tires, XPLORE/Method aluminum wheels, Bilstein 5100 Series shocks Magnaflow stainless steel cat-back exhaust, and a one-year National Parks and Monuments Annual Pass (USA). Stage 3 offers world-class 4×4 packages from Australia’s ARB. And if you want to get really serious, Stage 4 is Built-to-Order, working with Cruiser specialist TLC on custom paint, suspension, wheels, seating, electronics, and various other expedition-grade upfits. Just add cash! Starting at $35,000.
