First one you ever liked? Seriously? Never liked anything from them before? Hmmmm

Yeah the FJ Cruiser is pretty cool, but it was shown a really long time ago.

thanx . . .BOB

Jay · 29th April 2006, 12:43

hmmm... looks some what like a Hummer.

triggercool · 29th April 2006, 12:47

Ya its good looking.

Beeman · 29th April 2006, 15:14

not bad, though design cue's seem to be from the hummer and the range rover in the lara croft tomb raider movie!

I saw it on the road in chicago couple of times, its pretty different and nice..

devarshi84 · 29th April 2006, 23:43

there were pretty good cars from toyota before like the supra but there was always a better present like the Nissan skyline

sajo · 29th April 2006, 23:56

Isnt this the SWB Landcruiser based vehicle? Even the front looks like older LCs. Maybe thats what Toyota intended. Maybe they named it after the Landcruiser FJ.

Saw the review for the 2007 Toyota FJ cruiser on TV. all people lookin for a 4X4, rejoice.

The toyota has the best of both worlds, AWD when on the road and one flick of the switch and 4X4 when off-road. It looks good and is gonna be atleast 4,000 CAD$ cheaper than the Sonata in Canada. This is one bad SUV that really should be laubched in India (around the 9lakh - 10lakh region - MAX). The Trax Gurkha and the Judo are great off-roaders, but lack in interiors and amenities. the Toyota really puts the groove back in Off-Roading.

Maybe a little. But they have preserved a lot of the classic FJ series Land Cruiser.
