Re: NO BS... I Wheeled an FJ Cruiser :-0
Sorry, sorry, sorry. 
Toyota Land Cruiser. That's what I meant to say. Yes, until I start making the big bucks, I'll not be able to afford a 50K+ vehicle! (although maybe a used one....)

Funny, you didn't mention this on the phone.
Did you feel all dirty afterwards?

Re: NO BS... I Wheeled an FJ Cruiser :-0
Nice to see someone take it over a bigger obstacle than a curb
How was the ground clearance and articulation?
What did you think of the FJ's visibility and blind spots? I thought they were worse than the H3 and I hated the mirrors ... not wide enough to be useful, imo.

Ditto on the mirrors and the visibility.
Although those I could get used to in time.
Two things I disliked the most:
When you go to shift, the is no real center console. The shifter in on the floor. I felt like I was in my grandpas old ranch truck.
There is no cockpit type feel to the interior, like the is in the HUMMERS and my TLC for that matter.
Second is the front seat belt are in the rear suicide doors. The rear passengers have wait for the front passengers to unbuckle and open their door to get out of the vehicle.

Also, it's Independent Susupension on all 4 corners.
Serious poo sandwich.

What is?
The FJ? It has a standard 4 link solid axle setup at the rear I think. I'm sure its IFS but I would just about swear it's a solid in the rear.
