    Even though the FJ Cruiser brochure asks to run on 95, it runs on 91 well. I was sent a letter from Toyota after i got it stating the rating was misleading and can run on anything above 89. I still use supreme (91 in the US) and even do in my '81 Troopy with a 2F engine.

    As for it being a Rav4 for off-road.....NO WAY!

              What I find amazing is the story attached to this explosion:

              http://nagtroc.org/forums/index.php?...ser-explosion/

              So my time almost came to an end this morning... im very lucky to be alive.

              First of all, GO HUG YOUR WIFE/HUBBY and tell them you love them.

              i had an acetylene bottle in my truck, the valve was bumped so slightly and over night the truck filled with the gas. i noticed the smell, and opened the doors to air out the truck. i drove the truck out of the garage to get some more air movement. i went to roll the pass side window down and as soon as i touched the power windows. BAM. with me in the truck. i lost all hearing out of my right ear and got a scratch on the back of my head. all things considering, im alive.

              so now ive got the question out to toyota about a 2012 TT. 125 to canada only, 15 in standard. i want a standard...

              pictures tell 1000 words.

              dont take any minutes or seconds you have for granted... it may be your last...

              peace everyone,
              evan...
              He opened the doors and I assume also started it up and drove the FJ out of the garage, all with a cab full of gas! How many lives does he have? I guess that by the time he activated the power windows, the air/acetylene ratio was just right to combust. If it went when he first opened the door, it could have been a whole different story... and possibly eligible for a Darwin Award.

              Check out the white sheet of metal next to the FJ, it's the roof!

                ...wow! He is extremely lucky.

                But seriously, who caries an acetylene bottle in a wagon!?

                  Looks like the air bags deployed

                  Wonder if his insurance covered the damage!? Probably a small-print acetylene exclusion clause in there somewhere.
