The FJ40 was a workhorse for years, this update should be similar. It is unapologetically built as a utility vehicle that is supposed to be useful in un-paved areas of the country. see full Toyota FJ Cruiser review

Toyota has been proven to be reliable despite the recent issues with gas pedal problems. FYI: The FJ is not involved with any recall issues. see full Toyota FJ Cruiser review

This car was engineered and assemble in Japan and it makes a difference. The post 1995 Pathfinders were built in the US and their reliability has been significantly worse. I would not buy a US built Pathfinder. see full Nissan Pathfinder review
