An old nameplate makes a comeback. The 2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser is a new SUV that takes the philosophy of Toyota's old compact but tough off-roader and adapts it to meet the demands of the 21st-century consumer.

• Superior off-road ability, comfortable and supportive front seats, retro styling that captures the spirit of the original.

• Limited visibility fore and aft, rear-seat entry hindered in spite of reverse-opening doors.

  Whoa! - 2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser
  By paterick - April 1 - 2:23 pm

  I have about 1500 miles and this engine is more powerful than I realized. I never have to break 2000 rpms generally in town, it hums at 1200 rpms to 1400 rpms and that is accelerating from stop to the local speed. Gas mileage is very poor but that must be from the high compression engine. This car seems like it could use another gear which could improve mileage. Getting about 19 mpg. Cant imagine what it would be if I had a heavy foot. Women told me I looked handsome driving this car. Made my day.

  FJ - Great Truck - 2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser
  By Italia317 - December 15 - 11:16 pm

  Purchased my Silver FJ Cruiser on 02/04/07. I did a lot of research on Edmunds as well as other sites before buying. The truck is def. a head turner, big, powerful, different. The interior has a lot of room, big knobs, stereo isnt too bad, a lot of compartments. Sideview mirrors are a little tough to get used to, but not too bad. As for the outside, I love it. Older drivers might have a tough time getting in w/o running boards, but its def a younger persons car. Gas mileage is ok, but its a truck so you cant expect much. Overall, I think its a great buy... powerful, fast, durable, and an attention getter. I would recommend it to anyone in the 25-35 year range.

  CC FJ Review - 2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser
  By Curry - August 20 - 10:26 am

  The FJ drives and feels very solid. The fit of doors and bonnet are tight and square. With conservative driving habits in real world driving environment it is possible to average 18.5 mpg in town and 20.2 mpg on the highway. The comfort level of this vehicle is far superior to what the F-40 was in the 70s and early 80s. The ride is much like a full size domestic SUV.

  Fun Car but Horrible Gas Mileage - 2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser
  By carlosarturo1 - February 21 - 4:27 am

  After owning this Cool SUV for 3 years I finally traded it in yesterday. Love the look and how fun it is to drive. We put mud tires and all the whistles and it turned all heads around. However, the gas milage is Horrible! I got about 14 to top 17 in the freeway. Not mechanical problems at all in 3 years.

  07 FJ Cruiser - 2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser
  By DAsper - February 11 - 1:10 pm

  This thing feels like a big truck. It feels very solid and well built. There are more traction options than you can shake a stick at on our 6 spd stick 4x4. The seats are waterproof, which is nice because of the floor mat, you can actually hose the truck out. The add on gauge pods in the center are cool too. Its a real pleasure to drive like I said, and plenty of leg room and cargo room if you need it. It has 3 wipers for the front windshield, and a rear wiper, plus household current outlets in the front and back. Also a real parking assist system that beeps when you get close to something. A great CDROM came with it too, way better than reading the owners manual, tons of videos.

  Fun Car - 2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser
  By Dave - October 18 - 10:20 am

  The FJ is a fun and relatively comfortable car. The only complaints are rear window visibility and height. With the optional roof rack, the car stands approximately 63" tall, which doesnt fit into some garages.

  Toyota Doesnt honor FJ Cruiser Warranty - 2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser
  By Kevin - September 24 - 4:36 pm

  We purchased a 2007 FJ Cruiser for our family, it is our fourth and, unfortunatley, final Toyota (we have two and Cruisers and a Highlander). After only 8000 miles the transmission failed on the FJ Cruiser and Toyota todate has refused to honor the warranty. The reason for the failure is moisture got into the transmission case. Toyotas reason for not honoring the warranty is because the vehicle was used off road. Keep in mind this is an off road vehicle; in fact Toyota advertises the FJ on their website as purely an off road vehicle - there are no pictures of the vehicle used on a road. We used the FJ in ways that are less demanding and safer than how the vehicle is marketed.

  A Fun and Fantastic Ride! - 2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser
  By Psykew - July 20 - 8:06 am

  Bought this car for both fun and family. All in all it has worked out perfectly. I thought it might be a little difficult getting an infant seat out of the back doors but I can do it even without adjusting the front seats. It gets up and goes with the slightest pressure on the gas pedal which makes it great if you have to zoom past someone to exit the freeway. Interior is really wide and you have a ton of headroom. Suspension rides like a dream. I take this crawling every other weekend and it takes every bump with ease.

  A blast to drive! But has its quirks. - 2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser
  By Murph - May 6 - 12:16 pm

  I went to a Used Car Dealership that sold mainly Dodges. I saw this cool looking truck and learned it was called the FJ Cruiser. I test drove it and fell in love with it immediately for its looks and above average handling for an SUV ! However, the clutch "chirps" when at idle but stops when the clutch is depressed. I had the dealership replace the clutch disc, pressure plate and throwout bearing. All was well until 2 months and 1400 miles later and the same problem arose again. I learned through Toyota forums that this is an issue with manual tranny FJs but they still operate normally as they should. Despite this somewhat major annoyance, I love my FJ and dont regret buying it!

  Higly recomended car when you have small kids - 2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser
  By smoramx - April 10 - 10:03 am

  I took the decision to buy an FJ because is very practical when you have kids; every time the kids spill water or any other liquid its really easy to clean up. Kids cant open the back door or roll down the rear windows. The privacy glass prevents the sun in kids face. I buy the 2x4 version which I first regretted, but living in LA and with small kids its a little difficult to go off road anyway. I took it to a Baja trip for a total 3,000 miles (very little off road) and its very comfortable and smooth.
