Default Why an FJ over a TACO?

I'm wondering if there are any problems with the FJ cruiser? I'm about to purchase either a FJ or taco but need some convincing on why to go with the FJ?

Default Re: Why an FJ over a TACO?

If you are going to use it for 4 wheeling both are a good choice (Taco w/ off road package). I have played around at pismo in my Tacoma with FJ Cruisers and have no problem keeping up with them in the sand. On rocks I would go with the FJ. I wheeled with a 3 FJ's at hollister, I was in my FJ40. The FJ owners where doing things I would never do in my Tacoma. Could I, probably most of it but there is no way I would. I was shocked at how well the new FJ handled rocks, ruts and massive hills. On paper, I thought the FJ was a joke to me, IFS, A-track... what the hell is A-TRAC, why not a front locker. I am now a believer in A-TRAC, I was shocked a how well it worked even when the IFS couldn't keep a tire on the ground.
