Default The New FJ Arrives

Greetings all,

As per my post about 3 weeks ago, I was looking for advice on the Toyota FJ Cruiser.

Well I picked her up from the dealership last night.

Here she is with her winter boots on and a clock of 71 Km, ready to go. It is a base model, manual and the only option I have so far is the roof rack. The rubber are Nokian Hakkapallida's SUV (Studded) 265 70R/17s.

And I have to agree with the majority of the answers I received on my last post, this is one fun truck to drive.

Once she is broke in, I'm off to the boonies to try some winter driving. Next year she will get her first hunt....likely gophers for a first outing but you have to start somewhere.

My '05 Taco is jealous now. Maybe it's time for a playmate for it. The FJ would suit fine. Great tire choice!
