Edmunds long term testing

Long-Term Road Tests

Is it bad that the first thing I thought when I saw the picture posted for the Feb 5 2007 review is, "I hope that shopping cart doesn't run into the door!"?

Re: Edmunds long term testing

they don't like it.

you have to be a cruiser head to like it.

and it has a lot of idosyncracies that can be annoying as hell if you don't buy it solely for wheeling.

i tried to trade my FJ for a new tundra (okay everyone flame me for being a hypocrite) and was quoted 19k for a rig that had less than 16,000 miles on it.
