Sandstorm blew in last Wednesday

Hi,
Off the transport in Wednesday morning, I bought my 2008 Sandstorm FJ Cruiser that night, August 18, 2007. I've been to the beach for a little fourwheelin'. My FJ is everything I thought it would be and more.
5AT,4x4
CQ
CF
OF Offroad Package
BF Goodrich Rugged Trail Tires
265/75R16 7J w/16" Alloy Wheels
Bilstein Trail-tuned Shock Absorbers
Cyclone Air Pre-cleaner
Rear Differential Lock & A-Trac
Multi-information display
C7 Convenience Package
Roof rack
Towing Hitch & Wire harness
Spare tire cover
FO Brush Guard

The new standard safety package is a plus with all the air bags that were an option on the '07.
I even got the salesman to fill the tank with Premium gas.

Quote:
The cyclone or "turbine" style air precleaners have always been a popular option on the
N-series Fords. The incoming air is swirled and the heavier dirt particles are deposited
into the glass jar where they can be emptied later. The regular oil bath air cleaner doesn't
need serviced nearly as often with the precleaner in use. Available as an original dealer
installed Ford accessory, the precleaners were made by the Air Cleaner Service Company
of Lincoln, Nebraska. On the left is the 8N model. On the right is the 9N-2N model.

Re: Sandstorm blew in last Wednesday

Cool, welcome.

I saw a new Sandstorm in SoCal yesterday afternoon on the 5 freeway heading North into LA from around Norwalk.

Looked good.
