2010 Regular Cab

[Tacovendor]

Funny, I've been posting with the FJ on the "blue" board for along time, And then the Tacoma got me going on TW, but now I'm here. This site is more my style, I'm not a rock crawler, but I do like to explore. Got an email from HEMA about the GPS, here is their release.
Availability for international markets
The US based magazine, Overland Journal, has published a small press release in their summer 2010 edition on
the HEMA NAVIGATOR 5” with a published price of $869.
The HEMA NAVIGATOR 5” GPS is a very successful product in the Australian off-road navigation market as it offers
both street navigation and 4WD navigation and comes preloaded with all of HEMA’s award-winning 4WD and
topo maps including full coverage of the Australian outback.
In Australia this product has a retail price of $990. However, it has not yet been released onto the US or
international market. Early adopters are more than welcome to purchase it direct from HEMA’s Australian head
office.
The export price of this product from Australia is US$800.00 (ex tax) with free international shipping (via FedEx)
included. Secure payment will need to be made prior to shipping.
HEMA will preload the device with a 12 month licence of Route 66 Street Navigation for your country of choice
according to availability from Route 66 but the purchaser will need to source their own local maps for the 4WD
Ozi Explorer and Memory Map applications. See www.oziexplorer.com or www.memory-map.com for more
information on additional maps.
Note that HEMA Navigator is NOT covered by an international warranty so any after sales support and service
obligations will be limited outside of Australia. Therefore should the unit need any repairs or maintenance it will
need to be returned to HEMA Australia head office at the purchaser’s expense, phone support will be available
during HEMA business hours with the cost of phone calls being at the purchaser’s expense.
See www.hemanavigator.com.au for more information.

Very nice truck! If I didn't have to worry about bringing the wife and offspring along, I would have a single cab or access cab too.

[ETAV8R]

Yeah I think I saw your FJ in the Blueroom when I was considering an FJ.

[Overland Hadley]

Nice build. I like the look of the reg cab.

[Tacovendor]

Here is my other build I have done( my wifes FJ),

[Redline]

Nice. There is lots to like about a regular cab and a shorter wheelbase.

[Bugspray]

You got what I need. That rear bumper is killer! I also have a reg. cab Tacoma (1st gen) so i know the challenge of outfitting a truck with limited space and power. The 2.7 is a great powerplant but when you start adding bumpers, big tires, tents etc. you see the MPGs go down. Keep up the nice work!

[J*C*M]

With the 2.7 you're right you should watch the weight that you load the truck down with, but at the same time I've been kicking the **** out of my 2.7 since the truck was first released in 2005.

Below is what my truck looked like, on 285's with my sport bike on the back, my buddies touring bike on the trailer, and gear loaded down everywhere. The whole time from DC to San Antonio I averaged 16 mpg and had no problem cruising with traffic. It's no racecar, but don't sell it short.

[Tacovendor]

So far it's working out great and the turning radius is awsome.

I love my 2.7, It's a little champ. Mine regularly gets loaded down with people and gear and chuggs along on the highway just fine, well at least until I get to the mountains. With the regular cab you will be surprised how much extra weight you can get away with. Awesome truck by the way, really makes me miss my old reg cab.
