    What are the differences between an FJZ80 and a LX450?

    Mostly cosmetic. In stock form the LX has softer coils in the suspension. The other differences are things like extra exterior plastic body cladding on the flares/rockers. Many LX's have wood trim interior. Mechanically they are identical and parts are interchangeable.

    Sure but the only way you'll really tell the difference is the body plastic and the badges. :)

    There are things about the Tacoma (or minitrucks in general) that I miss but I've always been a "cruiserhead" so I'm very content with my cruiser. Having strong solid axles from the factory and triple lockers is hard to complain about. And the cruisers are way more comfortable. ;)

    Scared of what? that it won't sell? or that you'll regret selling it?

    Meh. There will always be things you miss that bring some sense of regret. But in the end they're just vehicles.
