We reckon Toyota should steal the Land Cruiser name from its upscale SUV and slap it on the side of this FJ, which stays truer to its paternal roots.

Obivously this guy knows very little about Landcruiser's. So I guess having the same name means having the same over built reliability? Even Toyota marketing would never do that, they'd be shooting themselves in the foot.

article said "so expect it to cost $25,000 to $30,000"

is this the base price guess or the range from base to loaded? $5000 does not seem enough probably $10,000 will get you all the goodies

I picked it up at the airport for some plane reading. It wasn't that great of an article, but I found out what I wanted to know--it's built on the highlander platform.

--it's built on the highlander platform.

I thought it was built on the 4 runner , That's what Toyota has been saying, Unless the highlander is the same as the 4 runner?!?

 

[Kaderabek]

Modified 4Runner platform.

No it's not, it's built on the 4runner/Prado platform.
