Overview & Reviews
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.

Flappy - 2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser
By Loftonfan - May 24 - 5:50 amI have had my "Flappy" for close to 9 months now, and it is by far my favorite vehicle. It has been off road quit a few times. The Little Grand Canyon with a foot of snow was the hardest trail that it was on, and it made it out after some coaxing. Wish I had a locker in the front, a winch, or more aggresive tires. Just got done with a weekend of wheeling in Silverton and it proved to be a stellar machine. Pulled the popup camper there, and never would have known that you were pulling a load. Really a fun vehicle to drive, had enough get up and go for me, yet is so smooth over the highway that you can enjoy the drive to the next off road trail. Gas gets a little pricey with the premium.

Old Faithful - 2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser
By jdsiv - May 16 - 10:00 pmMy need for a good solid truck rules out many of the vehicles made today. I spend as much time as I can at a remote family cabin and exploring the outdoors and often am very far from any type of assistance. My vehicle needs to get me in and out, and this one always comes through. I put Goodyear MTRs on it and they are top notch. I have had this vehicle in rain, mud, sand, and lots of snow. It plows through everything without trouble. There may be more luxurious 4x4s out there, but I see lots of those stuck in snow banks while the Cruiser keeps on trucking. If you go off road at all, the front skid plate is not an option. While comfortable on the road, it can be tricky to drive at times.

My Tinker-Toy - 2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser
By Bec - April 4 - 12:53 pmI love it! Gets great gas mileage, fun to drive and comfortable. Passenger backdoors are a little bit of a bother but worth it! We get all kinds of looks everywhere we go. People are always asking if they can look at it and "What is it??" I no longer have to search the parking lot - since there are so few here where I live, it really stands out. I put over 2000 miles on it the first month I had since everyone wanted a test ride. It has such a smooth ride when I took my oldest daughter for a test ride she asked me why we were going so slow? We were doing 65, she thought we were doing about 40! Roomy, comfortable, good gas mileage. I LOVE IT!!!

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

Handles beautifully. Its stylish good looks make it a head-turner wherever I go. Have had it three days & cannot believe peoples reaction to it..... kids take photos of it with their cell- phones. Guys practically get run over while ogling it & women just LOVE it. Its a winner.

WOW! What a Great SUV - 2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser
By GregK - March 12 - 7:33 amThis is the first SUV Ive owned in 10 yrs. Traded in my BMW 330i for it. Though Ill miss the quickness and nimbleness of the 330i, I absolutely love my FJ! Before the 330i (and Volvo 850), I owned a Jeep Grand Cherokee and two Ford Explorers. These vehicles dont hold a candle to the FJ. Engine power is just right for its size, comfort is great and utility if excellent. The only drawback I can see so far is what others are saying. The rearward visibility is really bad. Use your mirrors well and dont forget to physically turn your head before changing lanes on the highway. Have yet to see if gas mileage lives up to its 24 highway / 19 city billing.

Fun & Functional (with a big blind spot) - 2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser
By matt - February 22 - 5:56 pmThis truck is great looking, affordable transportation. The engine feels just right (although Id like it if it took regular unleaded). The blind spots in the rear quarter panels are substantial, but not a deal killer.

A true Off-Road Vehicle - 2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser
By Anurakta - January 21 - 2:23 pmThis is a truely amazing vehicle. Being an avid Land Cruiser fan and not being able to afford one, when I saw it, I was instantly sold. I have read a lot about this SUV for the last 6-7 months and now I can say I dont believe most of the complaints that I read. I simply like everything about it. The rear door is an added safety feature cause I have a 5 year old and now she cannot open the door on her own and run away. She has to stay back there and wait until daddy gets out to assist her during dropping her and picking her back from school. If you are a good driver and actually watch over your shoulders for blind spots, there is no problem with visibility.

Oh What a Feeling, Toyota - 2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser
By Jimsque - January 18 - 10:40 pmI have owned Broncos, Jeeps and other 4x4s and this one is the very best. Great on the highway, rides better than my wifes Volvo XC90! Great traction in 18" of snow with no slippage. Mine is the Black Cherry and I call it Razlberry, it sure has pizazz!! Toyota has hit a homerun and I am proud to own it, as others only wish they did. Everybody thinks they cost more than they do.
