I dont mind the style of the truck that much, even though I think they could have done a little bit better, however what I really dont like about the truck is the blue color. Its dull and looks like a Lego blue, matter of fact, the truck looks like it was made out of Legos. Whatever. I jsut want to know what the real thing will look like. Hopefully it will look a lot better.

On first look at the intererior, it looked fake. Too much plastic. The whole thing is kinda cool but not something I'd ever own.

Default FJ Cruiser Pics

Don't think this is a repost...didn't see anything come up in search!

Could it be that they dumped the 3.4L V6 that used to be in the Land Cruiser Prado up to a few years ago, which was then upgraded to a 4.2L V6 with VVT-i.

I'd like to see it in black... that blue doesn't seem to flow very well -- makes it look like a tonka truck or something -- where's the remote control?

I think it's great that they're bringing it back. My family has had FJ40''s, 55's and 60's throughout my life. My dad currently drives an FJ60 with 230k. It won't quit. In fact, we had a bunch of snow today and my Lex wouldn't go anywhere, so LC to the rescue.

Does anybody have any idea how much this thing will cost? $25k - $30k-ish?

Unsure about the styling but I do like the spartan, ergonomical design. Two things really jump out at me that I love; the spotlights on the fronts of the side view mirrors and the removable navigation system. Can't wait to see the production versions with real tires and more functional interior.
