I've had my FJ since April and here's my observations:
Likes:
Quiet, soft ride even in extreme conditions. Compared to my dad's 2001 Xterra there's NO contest. Everyone prefers to ride in the FJ, especially offroad. It's like driving a Lexus, but the offroad ability is still there.
Good, rugged love 'em or hate 'em looks, and the retro-ness.
Spartan, easily cleanable interior, but still comfortable. Screw carpet!
Tons of power, particularly on the bottom end. And still decent gas mileage.
Interior space, and the ability to haul more than two people.
Dislikes:
The front bumper. Looks like the thing has a sore lower lip that sticks out too far. Totally does not flow with the rest of the truck.
The stock tires. It was really really too bad Toyota cheaped out on the stock equipment.
That's about it.
