Couldn't agree more regarding lower maintenance costs and reliability. I've owned many European cars over the years- BMWs, Alfa, Mercedes, Peugeot, Fiat, though not a Land Rover- and with those cars I got to know my local mechanics very well! Find a well-maintained FJ, keep up with the service schedule and I think you'll be surprised at how little fuss it will be.
My FJ has 250K miles and my Land Cruiser 300K+, and oil, tires and brakes are all they ever seem to need. Good luck!
