As far as getting in/out of the FJ I've had no problems. I'm of the mid 50's vintage. I find it harder getting in/out of a car because they sit so low. My friend has a Honda Element and he really likes it but he's always drooling over my FJ. I know he wants one. My brother who is a year older than me and has never stayed in shape has a terrible time getting in/out of his Grand Prix. He needs to buy an FJ to get some height. He can slide in and out of mine with no problem. I say go for it.

I'm pretty convinced to go ahead and get one! Something I'm not sure about.....what is it with the new white ones??? I really like them, but are they hard to come by???
You really need to test drive one to see if it works for you. I have passed up some very good vehicles because they were not a good fit for me. I was really happy that the FJ was a good fit when I test drove it. When you go for a test drive, pay specific attention to the visibility factor. Get in and out a few times to see how that works for you.
As far as availability, I think most Toyota dealers have them on the lot. You can go to the Toyota website and find dealers near you. You can search the dealer inventories online as well.

I'm only 5'7" and was thrilled at how easy it is get in and out of the FJ. I drove a Neon while in college... that thing was NOT great to get in and out. My previous vehicle was an Escape, and that thing was harder to get in than my FJ, even though it's a bit lower. I think trying to get a foot over the lip when the door is so short has something to do with it. It wasn't bad, but I could feel it when I was really tired. The flat FJ floor is nice.
