another namebadge gets drug through the mud. Do you really think anything they do would be an insult to a "70's" era Bronco?

Which seventy eras Bronco?

78-79 yes maybe ugly but I think they are cool

earlier then then that I hate to break it to you but ummm a scout and an EB are not that much different in looks.

SCOUT SNOB :flipoff2:

That FJ looks just like the concept that they unveiled two years ago. I'd have to see it in person. Looks.... different.

That’s like condemning mankind because of Doug. He's just one of the few screwups that have sneaked past natural selection. :D

I'd defiantly go check it out when they have one at a dealership. That’s like a pimp my ride truck straight from Toyota. Granted, they should have named it like a FJ-110 instead of tainting the 40's name.

Me think EBs are crap. Scout's OK, at least their axles are good for jeeps.

Joseph you ready to admit yours is a Jeep yet?

"The FJ Cruiser effectively fills a gap in the Toyota lineup which was once our core heritage - capable, affordable and durable vehicles that are youthful, fun-to-drive, aggressive and tough,"

They forgot to add "while filling our need to sell more overpriced, gadget-infested, $40000 vehicles" :rolleyes:

I don't see those hitting the trail. Then again, mine hasn't hit the trail in a while either.
