One thing to consider is your mobility. I know that as I have gotten older, I have had difficulty getting into certain vehicles because of a back and leg problem. If you are healthy enough to get up into one then I'm sure you'll love it. If you have difficulty getting up into a vehicle then it might be something to consider.
My mother is a bit older than you (mid 60's) but she couldn't get into my Isuzu Trooper without a lot of assistance because of a back condition. There is no way she could have driven it as she wouldn't be able to get in on her own. Just something to consider. Make sure you really try one out. If your health is good then why not? Drive something you enjoy!!!!

I agree with you on this one that it's a factor to consider. However, I've seen people get into my FJ a lot easier than my old Honda Prelude! Even a sedan such as the Camry or Accord requires some bending. The FJ is (for lack of a better term) butt-level when stock.
Moonbeam, you'll be able to do SO much with the FJ and there are a lot of people you'll find you actually like to hang out with on this forum.
