Thanks, MOT, great help! I did drive it today, nice , really nice, but as you suggest i will look at the other Model, and take my time. i am not in a hurry! The black color i didn't like either......your blue one is a beauty!
When I took my 2009 Mazda out to BIBE it got all scratched up too and  that was just from going into the Desert a bit! That's when i realized it's best to go there in a vehicle you don't mind getting scrachted up, or just hike everywhere, which i enjoy most anyway!

Glad I could help!  :icon_biggrin:

Frau, here is one I would look at.  4WD, one year ealier, and 5K cheaper: http://www.charlesmaundtoyota.com/used/Toyota/2007-Toyota-FJ+Cruiser-Austin-f0c402160a0a00650131cb029175eb4c.htm

at least now i know, what to look for. Don't think, i could live with the "yella" color, though, but nice car for a good price!

I understand!  However, I must say, the FJ is one of the few vehicles that I like in yellow.  It isn't near as bad when you see it in person!  :icon_wink:

For that much price difference, you could smile all the way home!

Just take your time.  The deal for you will appear in time.  I waited and searched for close to a year, but it was worth it.
