I admit I was so close to buying an FJ when they came out. I loved the retro look. I didn't want a TJ because it was kinda small for me. The only reason I didn't buy the FJ was that rediculous markup on them! Who pays more than sticker?!?!? 
So the 2007 JK comes out and all of the sudden I'm thinking they look amazing.
I finally test drive one and SOLD! No going back and no regrets!
This is my fourth Jeep and I love it! Its smoother, more refined, and even more capable than any before!

There is nothing Retro about that ugly thing!
If you want to go retro you would need to go back to this look
I ownwd one of these Back in the Day with a 327 Chevy in it & I must admit it was bullet proof 7 it had the Bullet dents to prove it!!!! ! bad Ass 4 wheeler!
But the new FJ is NOTHING like the original FJ, in fact I could Drive my Old FJ over a new one & hardly feel the bump!

I took the FJ offroad just like I did my TJ.... Also added bigger tires and even a 3 inch OME lift to the FJ................... No comparison. I missed my stock TJ.
So with the life time warrenty deal I opted to get the new JK's instead of a TJ..... so I am now driving in a 08 2dr JK X 6spd black...........LOVE it. I would not take a million dollars for it......

I found a lot of forums for FJ cruiser with also many mods companies made.
It looks average, but has great power 240 hp with accelerate speed from 0-60mph in 7.6 sec
Internal space is larger than 2dr and its price is challenger to others companies.
So what do you think about this car, will it take the customer from the JK?
i found this vidin you tubesee the power in own it

MA wheeling buddy i have drives an FJ. Got a little lift with some decent tires and it goes everywhere i go without a problem.
Its not in 4wd all the time, its in AWD, there is a difference. And then you have the choice for 4hi and 4 low. It has good power and torque in all gears. It climbs jusst as easy as the jeep.

For what it's worth, I don't think you will find many people on here that would bag on the old FJ40s, however the only thing they share with the FJCruiser is the white roof. Jeeps have improved their offroad capability through the years, FJs have not. To me, comparing an FJ40 to an FJ Cruiser is like comparing a CJ-7 to a Jeep Patriot.
Dont forget about all of the problems the jeeps are having too. The "stall" when on the gas, the leaks all over the place with soft and hard tops, my evac system is wack and i have had a check engine light fori dont even know how long and none of the dealers will cover anything. This isnt my first jeep, i like my JK, but i would much rather have my TJ back. Im trying to talk my brother out of buying a JK and getting either a TJ or a new V6 4wd single cab tacoma, which is what i wish i would have gotten.
