Toyota FJ Cruiser
Does anyone have one?
If so, do you like it?

Re: Toyota FJ Cruiser
I will ask DH about it... he is a mechanic for Toyota.
Bad blind spots is his only complaint about the truck, and it is even more noticeable for someone who is not used to driving a truck.
Other than that he loves it, and mechanically they are quite sound. He loves the layout & features of the interior too.

My friend test drove one with ian interest in purchasing one. That is the reason she didn't purchase it. She drives all day, so it isn't like she is a crappy driver.

I think he wanted to go to Atlantic Very cool. The guy we usually go to there is Benny. He is very easy to get him to negotiate b/c he is scared of DH
(and no, DH does not buy from the dealership he works at )
Here is a page on JC Whitney for a mirror extension: click

Re: Toyota FJ Cruiser
The blind spots are HORRIBLE! The back window is so much smaller than the one in my old little Civic! Definitely don't get the Fj, I test drove it and I'm so glad I utimately went with my Xterra

Re: Toyota FJ Cruiser
I am going to be even more jealous of you if you get that truck...I absolutely LOVE it!!!!!! I was hoping they would total my truck when I got into the accident so I could get the FJ
