Default So, what does everyone think of the FJ Cruiser?

This new SUV by Toyota has a classic, retro look with modern features: a 239 hp V6 engine with 283 lbs of torque, and an easy to clean interior. This SUV is meant to go off road. I like it, MSRP is around $23 for the top of the line trim.

Yeah, but you add just one package (or two) and you're at $28K in a hurry. Most people won't buy them as a base model...

It's quite a versatile jeep, I dig it.

Looks nice, but I hear the ergonomics are a little weird.

The thing is, I would probably never take this thing off-road. Do you think I would get sick of it using it on paved roads all the time?
