I'd drive it

 

[dhtahoe]

Yeeeeeeeeeesssssssss!!! The FJ is back!!!!!!!!!! I love FJ 40's. Out of all the retros coming out the mini and this thing are pretty bad ass.

 

[surfinguru]

Awwww yeeeeeaaaaa.....that thing is choice! Now that I just made my last truck payment today, time to trade in. Where does the line start? Too bad there's no word on projected MSRP.

 

[sanjuro]

Does FJ stand for something?

 

[BigMike]

I'm sorry, that thing is UGLY!

The old ones were cool, but that.......... may as well get an H3

Yes, but they're not including a wok.

The old one was charmingly ugly. This one is an abomination.

Nice, but Id take one of these if I could afford it

Wow. I didn't think anything could get dumber looking than the Chevy Avalanche, but I think we may have a contender!

Have you not seet the H2 SUT or the Pontiac Aztec? What about a Sicon Xb?

 

[N8 v2.0]

I am getting one of those new FJ's!!!

 

[murdock1084]

This would be something a little more practical, better than the new FJ's and a damn H3. Besides the New FJ's cant take over the rep that the 40's had.

 

[McGRP01]

A little slow there scoop, I posted aboout the FJ about 4 months ago...

And everybody thought it was ugly back then???

That suxors.

 

[ALEXIS_DH]

that is really ugly....
i cannot imagine a middle aged mom driving that truck to soccer practice and waving from the window....

the ford truck, is pretty cool, very audi-esque...
is it gonna hit the market soon??

 

[MTB_Rob_NC]

why do I want an audi - ford?
I"d rock the FJ in a second, but I'd get a new STi first.

Not the Yellow one, but the red one on the first page would have a STi for lunch. There have been strong rumors that it will be available in 2006/7 either as a replacement or in addition to the Lightning.

 

[N8 v2.0]

Toyota pwn3s Ford any day.

 

[BigMike]

I like how the yellow ford looks like it says Tonka on the sliver lining

 

[MTB_Rob_NC]

Not in the truck market. I am speaking strictly from a sales and profitability stand point. Whichever YOU perceive is better is cool with me.

 

[MTB_Rob_NC]

The red one looks hot, but if you're getting a "sports truck" why not just get a sports car? Oh yeah, that's right, I forgot about the south.
America really needs to get over its obsession with big trucks, they're f'in retarded.

Like it or leave it. I have had fast sport compact cars, and now I own a SUV. A vehicle is to get you and your stuff from point a-b. You can fit more stuff in a truck then a sport compact. How much fun you have doing it is only secondary as far as I am concerned.(I did not always think that way)

 

[murdock1084]

Lets just face the facts. The new FJ's should have Solid front and rear axels, have the same style straight 6 with a little more kick. The old style is awesome. I like the the rough lines better than the smooth lines. I mean my 71 is perfect I wouldnt go any newer or older.

I am talking from a reliablity/capability standpoint.

The standpoint that shows why Ford and GM are floundering.

Even Floundering F150 and other light truck sales for FORD seriously kills Toyota volume wise. I cant find the stat now, but I believe if F150 was it's own brand (ie Toyota, Nissan etc) It would be the 6th (rings in my head) largest brand world wide.. Ford touts that stat all the time in company info..

Yeah, those little Toy Bandeirante from S. America were cool. But thanks to all the enviromental and safety restrictions now enforce in the US market, the New FJ is what we have to choose from.

Make sense... sorta.

The typical Ford needs replacement in 5 years opposed to a Toy which lasts 10-15 years.

 

[luken8r]

personally, i hope its not a hot truck. im getting on next summer when my ZJ is paid off and i dont want to see them jacked way over MSRP just because it looks cool.

fyi, pricing has been slated to start around 20k for a rwd mt job. nicely equipted 4x4 with lockers for around 27k. they are going to try and price it under then TJ unlimted rubis and the xterras.
the hoseable interior sold it for me. dirty bikes and smelly dogs do not work well with upholstered interiors. lockers, 6 speed, 270hp 4.0, 20mpg, and BFG ATs were just bonuses

Unless you're using them for what they're intended for....Towing, farming....etc...

It better be a *very* straight line.

Toy lockers are sweet! I've seen a stocker 4Runner with street tires climb some sh!t with the locker.

They're more profitable because Ford makes them cheaply, which is why they fall apart within a few years... Skimp on quality to increase profit margins and you get the reputation that Ford and GM have...
