Dang I still can't tell if those things have any bulk or not. Are they Rav4's or 1970's Broncos? LOL

 

[Fred]

Careful Me, you'll have Rav4Owner, BroncoOwner and FJOwner on here telling us to stop slamming their vehicles on a Sport Trac site. :lol:

What are they for, to run through the jungle, or to chase yuppy hummers???

 

[Travis Munday]

The former. Although they could chase Hummers down and pass em on the trail....

The FJ Cruiser is based on the 4Runner. From Toyota's site:



Wheel base: 105.9"

Overall Length: 183.9"

Width: 74.6"

Min Ground Clearance: 8.7"(2wd) 9.6"(4wd)



It's slightly larger than the RAV4, about 2" longer and 3" wider.

Hey! My wife drives a Rav4! heheh... It's still girly though....



The new Rav4 has 40% more cargo area, plus 3rd row seating. I don't know if that would be very comfortable though. That thing is pretty small. Ah well, I'm not starting a war nor am I going to argue about it! Just mentioned it for a laugh...heheh.

Ryan Y, Yeah sure, great, but is it a half ton truck? HAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAA!! :lol:

I kind of like theooks of it, but I already own the best vehicle for me. I can roll down the road at 80 +, haul anything I need to either in the back or with a trailer, go offroad with most of them and it looks really nice.

I predict it will be a HUGE hit here in Key West.

Kinda hard to tell how big it really is from that long distance shot, and especially without another well-known vehicle to compare it to.



Kinda like when Chrysler first introduced the PT Cruiser. They were careful not to show pics of it along with a mid-size car, as people would realize how small the PT actually was.



And really didn't expect anything but the normal bashing of any non-Ford product coming from this site. Probably the most narrow-minded group of folks on this site of any I frequent.

Thank you, may we have another?

The FJ will be one of my options when I replace my ST in a few years. The 07 ST won't be on that list though, unless a few items are changed in the production models.

I still believe it is a Mini Cooper on 'roids.
