For the longest I was sold on the Jeep Wrangler. I was gonna pick one up and everything. But then I started looking at the FJ Cruiser and I'm starting to


like. Anybody has experiences with either?

Not a huge fan of either, but the FJ Cruiser looks pretty decent Black on Black.

NOT the two tone ones you see all over the road...

Top is in sections that are individuallyremovable. Plus its a Jeep so you can take it just about anywhere, literally.

What will you be using it for? Mall crawling or rock crawling? Both have extensive aftermarket doo hickeys and thing-a-ma-jigs available.

I've driven the 4 door Wrangler many times and to me it is very underpowered and gets horrible gas mileage for the engine it has. My Kia has 50 more hp andgets the same if not better mileage. Rubicon is sick though with the disconnecting sway bars and such.

Can't say anything about the FJ

You told me a lot about the FJ (on another SN). Too bad I failed my driver's test.
 
I'd personally go with the Toyota. As for 09 models...the Cruiser gets slightly better gas mileage than the Wrangler according to fuel economy governmentsite.

When i was test driving the FJ, i got the

...it's and awesome SUV,power is good, interior is water proof with no carpet and that thing can handle in any type of wheather, rain, snow, rocks, sands,..and mud (with propertires)..
 
I can't say that I'll be off-roading a lot. But I want a dependable utility vehicle that I can drive on the highway too. Most cars are just too refinedfor me. I've heard that both are underpowered tho. If I got one I would probably get one in black like the pics I posted.

the FJ is quiet on the highway, but it can handle off-road too....also a heads up, a IRON MAN STEWART edition supposely gonna be released in 09, it comessupercharged if the stock HP aint enough....as the only draw back i can see is, it has a blind spot, but that can be fix with a purchase of those tiny blindspot mirror from ur local store, passenger window can't be rolled down (no biggie, cuz front + passenger are big), and rear trunk window aint powered (haveto manually pop open with key)....other then that..i love my FJ
