2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser review - the BEST all-around SUV ever?

Designed by a 24-year-old, built on a world-famous platform not sold in the U.S.and with resale value the envy of the industry, does the 2007 FJ Cruiser have what it takes to be the best all around SUV ever made?
When I first saw this 2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser for sale I knew it would soon be in our driveway. If you lived on the Big Island of Hawaii, you'd understand why.
The 2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser 4WD has 239 horsepower and 278 lb-ft of torque. The 2010 and newer models have 259 horsepower and 270 lb-ft of torque. However, the 2007 FJ Cruiser runs on premium unleaded (as does the 2008 and 2009) while the 2010 and newer models run on regular unleaded.
The 2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser ground clearance is 9.6 inches.
The 2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser A-Trac keeps wheel spin at a minimum.
The 2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser problems are minimal since Toyota spend millions in research and development on a vehicle who's platform was already widely-regarded as the highest quality platform in the world...The 2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser shares its platform with the Toyota Land Cruiser Prado and Lexus GX 470.

I bought a yellow 07 FJ two years ago and have been thrilled with it. It is a stick and has no screens, which is a big plus for me. It has no trouble in snow or mud covered trails, unplowed snow covered roads, or going across frozen lakes. It has always started in polar vortexes. I put a three inch lift on it and 33 inch tires. The back seats would probably be difficult to get booger eaters and their car seats in and out of, but if I wanted a grocery getting soccer wagon, I would have gotten a mini-van. People complain about blind spots, but use your mirrors and turn your head and it's not a problem. I plan on taking very good care of it and not replacing it anytime soon.

@everycarSeattle 4 жыл бұрын

I'm with you 100% Jeff...it almost seems weird to replace it with something that can't possibly be as practical or well built and for certain costs more. I don't live in a big city so I can't speak to the blind spot since an armored truck would be fine in Hawaii (so long as it had good a/c) but I think we'll keep our as well for quite some time.

I love my FJ, and I don’t ever plan to sell it. It’s my favourite vehicle of all time. I haven’t driven any other vehicle that feels the same. It doesn’t get great gas mileage but I do get more smiles per miles while driving it. I’d buy another one in a heartbeat.

After owning this FJ, I really don’t like driving anything else anymore..strange but true. I have a friend that has an FJ40 that he’d sell me, it’s in very good shape, and the price is right, so I may eventually do that first. And buy a second Cruiser later on.

Wow, I love Hilo Steve and the FJ would be pretty much perfect there as well. I would recommend the earlier years because even though the fuel economy is lower, they are WAY less expensive than the newer ones and just as bulletproof. It's possible that FJ's have the best build quality of any vehicle ever made outside of something super exotic.

I have an 08 black diamond Fj. It’s by far the best vehicle that I have owned. The locking differential is a rear locker. I believe you said center locker. My 3rd gen sr5 4Runner has a center differential locker. Both of these vehicles seem to be appreciating. I constantly am being asked if I want to sell them. That yellow is starting to grow on me. I am on the hunt for a newer Fj. Something with crawl control. A trail teams would be nice, but it’s hard to find a clean/un-abused one for under 30k. Anyways that’s a nice looking rig. Enjoy

I did not know the FJ Cruiser was designed by a 24 year old... I thought it was created by a California design firm, nor did I know it was on a Lexus platform, I thought all along it was on a 4-Runner platform? I get to Hawaii on vacation every year (except the COVID19 year) escaping the cold Canadian winters but have yet to find a way to get my FJ cruiser and myself permanently relocated to Hawaii! Thanks for the great video...Thumbed up and Subscribed.

Hawaii is going to be pretty much the go-to vacation destination when the dust settles and you'll realize that over the past year we all have decided to get '07 FJ Cruisers. They cost nothing on the Mainland, they're worth a fortune here and they're literally perfect for going to off-the-beaten-path beaches.

I think so, too. I just drove 216,000 original miles on my ‘07 TRD. It has gone through 5 windshields, 2 alternators, but other than that trouble free. Changed brake pads at 125,000 mi, R rear disc because it got a small piece of granite jammed into the caliper, tires every 18 months or so, change fluids every 4,000 to 5,000 miles, 21 GPM when driving from San Diego to Salt Lake City and back. The paint, the upholstery, the floor mats don’t mix well with desert heat and mountain snow. It will go anywhere I want to go and get me there in one piece. Future plans include a 2” lift and paint.

I have the 2011 and chose the 2010+ range during my search for the newer engine.

The 2010+ also gets ever so slightly better MPG.

We love our 2007 and it only cost 14999 with 100k. A 2013 with 100k is closer to 25-30k and we just won't ever drive it enough to make up that difference.

That comes up every so often but remember, I started this channel in 2012...there are lots of "Fast Lane's" out there but I'm pretty sure the one you reference came after me, not the other way around.

If the the interior of your vehicle is coming loose and you cannot focus your eyes, AIR DOWN YOUR TIRES.

I love the Toyota FJ Cruiser, I just wished it got better gas mileage. In much the same way, even though I kind of prefer the Toyota 4Runner to the Honda Passport, the Toyota is let down by an old lackluster and inefficient V6 and 5 speed automatic transmission. The big surprise was that a Jeep Wrangler gets better mpg than the Toyota. Which is why I see most folks opting to choose a Passport and modify the tires for off-road grip in order to get the most out of both worlds.

@everycarSeattle 4 жыл бұрын

I agree that better mileage would be a plus and that the Passport (with better tires) is really nice both on and off road. The FJ is just so awesome off road and has such amazing build quality that it's a tough act to follow. Resale is so strong these days that it's fairly certain these will be coveted collector cars in the future.

The Fast Lane with Joe Tunney I agree. There really is nothing truly as good as an FJ Cruiser. It really kind of makes the H3 Hummer look silly 💪😂

I wish they would have come out with a full off road package with rollbars, off-road lights, heavy duty transmission and V8...that would have been perfect.

Thanks for the tip Michel T. I agree on the diesel engine. When we went to Australia, I was convinced that if Toyota sold in the States what the sold overseas they would literally take over the market

@everycarSeattle 4 жыл бұрын

Hmmm...they're going up in value, so maybe not to the point of a collector car but whatever other term there is for something going up in value I suppose you could call it that instead. I'm pretty comfortable in knowing what it can do but I simply wanted to demonstrate how it works. We'll take it down to the Green Sand Beach in a couple of weeks and if you know Hawaii you'll know that's kindof a thing.
