  • I never want to own another veichle - 2010 Toyota FJ Cruiser
    By -

    What I had read was true. The gas mileage isnt great, there are blind spots, and the suicide doors are sometimes inconvenient. Still, I am absolutely in love with my FJ. It sits tall, handles extremely well on the highways, and is the most comfortable car Ive ever driven. I live in Ohio, and we have gotten an unusual amount of snow this year. Im never worried about getting stuck and feel extremely safe driving it.

    if you want a dual purpose vehicle this may be the one, if you like cushy comfort buy a caddy. this vehicle is super durable and comfortable. I installed a Warrior bumper / winch / HID spots / LED spots on a roof air dam and a K&N, it is now perfect for my needs. not one failure in 114K miles. works Toyota perfect.

    Does it all - loves the mountain twisties - loves to play in the snow - loves to get dirty - loves the dirty dog. Sure, 40 mpg would be nice - so would a neck massage! Its quirky, its fun, its practical and, boy, is it yellow!

    This is a head turning vehicle with lots of performance. The Special Edition TT is only available in Sandtone and it is sharp. The wheels really make it. Roof rack going on next week. It feels like its very well constructed. Its not about luxury, it is about off road. I think its got plenty of power. I have to admit, I do miss the heated seats.

  • Fun to drive, cool to own - 2010 Toyota FJ Cruiser
    By -

    Since getting rid of my Wrangler (with the anticipation of a second child), I didnt have a great deal of choices for a good off-road SUV that would accommodate them. Enter the FJ and the 4- door Wrangler. I love the style of the Wrangler but thats where it ends. Safety #1, Power and Fuel Economy #2, Capabilites #3, and Amenities #4 all point toward the FJ. It wins in every category. The FJ is powerful, drives great, and is styled differently enough to stand out in a sea of 4-Runners and Xterras. I have two small girls and we get around in it great. True, it has less back seat room than my wifes RX 330 but it is adequate. What is given up in some area is more than made up for in others.

  • Best Decision - 2010 Toyota FJ Cruiser
    By -

    I traded my Camry Hybrid in for my FJ and have no regrets. My decision was simply because I needed something that can tote hockey gear one weekend, camping the next, take the dogs and boys to the beach and than a nice trip antique shopping. Wish I had my FJ when my boys were younger and spilling their red slushes and smashing food on the floor. They are a little older now and dont care climbing in and out of the back seat. We have a 4runner, z71 and a cj5 and the FJ is the one we take for family outtings. I was learning towards a Sequoia at first, but found it to be too fancy and I wanted something that can get dirty and clean up easy.

  • Simply Amazing - 2010 Toyota FJ Cruiser
    By -

    Now with almost 30000 miles on the clock, my FJ is perfect. Bought it from new, and it cost next to nothing to maintain. The only issue here in a hot country, is that the tires seem to let go easily. Already changed them 3 times, and now this is the 4th time, although i did not run it for long. going for the huge BFGoodriches this time, for better on/off road experience. I advise anyone who is looking for a real off-roader + comfy cruiser to buy it.

  • Not very practical - 2010 Toyota FJ Cruiser
    By -

    It is an off road vehicle and better than a jeep. However, it has no visibility, like sitting in a bath tub. The cargo room and back seat is a joke. It is made well but a little outdated and the retro design at times is ugly. The engine is underpowered compared to an xterra and it is really a 2 seater vehicle. It is slow on the highway and the 4wheel drive system is horrible for the highway. I have my regrets.

  • No problems at 50k miles - 2010 Toyota FJ Cruiser
    By -

    This is my first Toyota, and I bought it new, a 2010 Trail Teams Edition. After 50K miles, I have not had to repair anything. In fact, there isnt even a rattle or squeak. I have taken it off road and it has performed well. There are negatives about the vehicle, but you should know them before you buy. The vehicle has blind spots, not because there arent enough windows to see the vehicles, it is because the vehicle is so tall, that most passenger cars are below the view of the window. Remember, this vehicle was designed for off-road, and ground clearance is important. A couple cheap convex mirrors cures this problem. The gas mileage is average for an SUV, but this is obvious too.

  • Great Vehicle - 2010 Toyota FJ Cruiser
    By -

    I love this Fj. It can go anywhere off road, it blows all the other members car of the 4x4 club im in out the water. Other members have gotten recovery hooks ready because they where for sure i was stuck when i wasnt. way better then a jeep.
