aaaand you dont think the FJ is boxy? lol
The square vehicles started in japan years ago and caught on quick. the Scion Is actually branded as BB or Black box, there are also other vehicles such as the Voxy and the Cube. I think they caught on not only because they stand out from the way all the other companies were building stuff, but they are small and easy to park(a huge problem in some countries) with a big amount of interior space.
Yup. While in Japan I noticed most vehicles were small and smaller. They were mostly Mitsubishis and Suzukis and boxy, to utilize space and still get good gas mileage.. a Vitara would have been a large vehicle there. The FJ would be a monster.
