Who likes their car/truck

If you're not going to off road it though, would you still buy it?  The FJ, that is.  I think they look great, but I've read a number of reviews that were horrible.  Consumer reports had pros as drivetrain and off road, cons as visibility, comfort, access... basically everything a city slicker like me likes.  Closests I'd get to off road are some rutted dirt roads to go fishing in the Sierras

Thats why I simply, like the looks of the new FJ, but love the old style.  Of course, this is coming from someone who rebuilt an 86 Jeep CJ7.  Love the old crawlers!

It is a 1971 Westfalia Camper Bus The Pop Top is functional, I have all of the hammocks and best of all, it has a real 8-Track tape player with a great collection of music to go along with the bus. Great for surf trips to Mexico

If you have an 8 track, it's a requirement to have some Cheech and Chong on tape.  You have this don't you?  If not, I have the tape, but in need of a player.

Maybe this is because the only thing we ever listened to on 8 track was Cheech and Chong......"Dave's not here man!"

Ahhh, 8 tracks.  Abbey Road was the last one I saw laying around

I've had a 1994 Pathfinder (loved it) and a 2003 Pathfinder, which, frankly, has given me a number of emission problems over the years.  As much as I'd like to be rid of a car payment (only 11 more months), I am keeping my eye out for options.

With that honest FJ review, I guess those are out, LOL.  I really like my friend's 07 Ford Explorer Sporttrack, but gas mileage is $$$$$$$.  And I've never bought a For.  Toyota/Nissans all my life

This could turn into an all-Toyota thread, but I love my RAV4, which I've had for a little over two months. Well-designed, fun to drive, plenty of room for me, my bike and two passengers, seats five comfortably without the bike, averaging about 25mpg total with my heavy foot (see "fun to drive"

We got ours a little more than a week ago, and drove it to the mountains this past weekend.  What a blast.  I love that car!

Eric's working on getting a receiver put on so we can attach the bike rack in time for this weekend's training/camping trip.  Woot!

Apparently, the tent we'll be using this weekend is the old one that attached to Eric's dad's old VW bus.  It's a hoot.  All 70s colors and stripes.  But it's in excellent condition, and it's free.  And HUGE.

I'm going to call it our Pavilion. 

I have a Toyota Highlander ~ Hybrid and I LOVE IT!!!

27 miles to the gallon, which isn't bad for a small sport utility vehicle.  I've gotten in the 30's when I'm driving strictly in town.

Imagine it with sliders, real bumper, basket up top...... someday when I am rich!  I'm curious about this line as well.  Honestly, the only reason I bought this one: hell no on a minivan, but needed the 3rd row seat.  At the time (4 years ago) there wasn't anything affordable out there like that.  And I have always desired one of these.

You got the psychedelic light show going in the back too?  And "Innagaddadavida" playing on the 8-track?

I love my Toyota Corolla, and it looks so cute with my bike sitting on top. The best is that when I go on long highway drives, I get 42 mpg. Unfortunately, my highway drive to work is bumper to bumper, stop and go, so typically I am getting 31-33 mpg. Not bad!
