Toyota FJ Cruiser Personal Experiences: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2007 4dr SUV 239-horsepower 4.0L V6
5-speed automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range
Having owned one, and lusting after it when first introduced, I came away disappointed. Windshield cracks right away from flat profile & anything thrown up from the road. Comfort is lacking & road noise/wind is readily evident. Value over duration sucked. full 2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser review
