This feature was Toyota FJ-heavy for a bit, but we haven't had one for a while. So today we're featuring a 2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser TRD.


The seller has a new Bronco on the way, so he or she is unloading this FJ for $34,999. This San Diego-based ride has a supercharged 4.0-liter engine with 133,000 miles on it, CARB-legal JBA headers, a stainless-steel cat-back exhaust system, a TRD front-brake kit, a TRD cold-air intake, OEM rear locker, and new coils and plugs.

Both front and rear suspensions are heavily upgraded, and there is a lot of off-road gear, including a winch, extra lights, and a roof rack.

The seller has also put a lot of time and money into the audio system. Since this isn't an ad, I won't list it all here. You can click through. All told the seller claims there is $40K worth of upgrades.

Check it out here.

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

    Observation A: Very nice condition for a 15+ year old vehicle.

    Observation B: Let's not think about the owner's cost per mile.

    Looks like a street queen. Black would show off-road battle scars rather easily.

  • THX1136 What happened to the other companies that were going to build charging stations? Maybe I'm not remembering clearly OR maybe the money the government gave them hasn't been applied to building some at this point. Sincere question/no snark.
  • VoGhost ChatGPT, Review the following article from Automotive News: and create an 800 word essay summarizing the content. Then re-write the essay from the perspective of an ExxonMobil public relations executive looking to encourage the use of petroleum. Ensure the essay has biases that reinforce the views of my audience of elderly white Trump-loving Americans with minimal education. Then write a headline for the essay that will anger this audience and encourage them to read the article and add their own thoughts in the comments. Then use the publish routine to publish the essay under “news blog” using Matt Posky listing the author to completely subvert the purpose of The Truth About Cars.
  • VoGhost Your source is a Posky editorial? Yikes.
  • Fed65767768 Nice find. Had one in the early-80s; loved it but rust got to it big time.Still can't wrap my head around $22.5K for this with 106,000 km and sundry issues.Reluctant (but easy) CP.
  • El scotto err not be an EV but to own an EV; too much training this week along the likes of what kind of tree would be if you were a tree? Sorry. Bring back the edit function.
