Question fjs frame setup from 3rd t4r

A salesman from toyota said this?????????? Went to go check out a fj for the first time a few months ago at dealer. I took my wife in our 02 4runner. He said that we should feel right at home in the fj because the fjs setup stemed off of the 3rd gen 4runner frame setup.

They do have the same wheelbase 105"

Any truth to this

I think the FJ sits on a shortened 4th gen frame or a Prada version.

Nope. Salesman...why do they even bother opening their mouth??

Here is a quote:
"Chassis and Suspension
The FJ Cruiser's tough, wide stance is based around a frame and front-and-rear suspension systems adapted from those found on the 120-Series Prado (Land Cruiser Prado in some markets). The frame is a boxed steel ladder-braced unit to which is mounted the FJ Cruiser's welded steel body."

And here's the link to the above quote: http://pressroom.toyota.com/Releases...T2005121954956

Slap that car salesman for me, please!
