Arrow CarTV FJ Cruiser Video ROAD TEST-Good One.



Great video and oh, so "snappy" music. It will be on your head for the next week-Rock On!

P.S. There are some cool FJ videos on there, too.

Re: AutoWeek FJ Cruiser Video ROAD TEST

I keep hearing about the blind spots. Is it something that is really that much of an issue, or more of an element that you simply adjust to over time?

I really don't think it is an issue. With the mirrors properly adjusted, you definately get used to it.

Re: AutoWeek FJ Cruiser Video ROAD TEST

it's like anything else, first time in the car people see difference from what they are used to. I agree it isn't an issue and is quickly adapted to. Like every vehicle you get when new there are differences, not good or bad, that you just get accustomed to. At first it seems like a problem then you adapt and low and behold no big deal at all. Then it becomes the comparison the next time around.

It's an initial impression, but you get over it the same day you pick it up. At the risk of pointing out the obvious... most every commercial truck has similar issues and they way outnumber us...
