No, the AT4 has the V8. You must be thinking of the Rams because they have a V6 HD Diesel truck

The wrangler also has a V6 diesel option this year

Anybody have any views on the Toyota FJ, particularly in this CORONA era?

Update: I went to the Grove today. This is the first time I have gone shopping at a place that wasn't a grocery store or a pharmacy since the middle of March. I figured the Grove would be okay because Rick Caruso runs a very, very tight ship when things are normal. I was impressed at how well it was handled -- plenty of social distancing reminders everywhere, staff outside stores dispensing hand sanitizer as you walk in and out, and a mask mandate which was enforced. You do NOT want to irritate a security guard at the Grove! They WILL kick you out. 

 

This is the police kiosk that was set on fire about a month ago:

Who set it on fire?

Still unclear if it was protesters, looters or people looking to cause trouble. I think it was one of the last two in all likelihood.

I did not realise they has stopped making them as I have seen quite a few nice ones, parked next to one the other day and thought it would be a contender, not cheap.

A #BLM incident?

Only inasmuch as all the first George Floyd protests were related to BLM overall. This was the very first weekend of it, the only weekend there was any real looting in LA/SM/BH/etc. I think it was the Saturday.

Should you be supporting a business that is basically operating the same way as a Nazi Concentration Camp and has been identified as such by #BLM?

They were more than likely looters because there is video of them breaking into a looting some stores in the groove.

The Grove? I don't think (and cyberfx agrees) that it was protesters who were objecting to the Grove, but looters. They don't care about ideology, they just want stuff.

I can guarantee you 100% it was people wanting to cause trouble

Now I don't know who to believe -- you and @Cyberfx1024 are both pretty reliable in my opinion.

@Nature Boy 2.0 I do believe it was people wanting to cause trouble and looting in the process. They were using these protests as backdrop to that in order to loot from stores
