I really, REALLY wanted an FJ. But the price on them didn't quite fit my plan. I am vehemently against having a car payment at this point in my life. My wife and I have 4 vehicles, all Toyotas, and they are all paid for. At the time I was looking, I had an 88 YJ and my plan was to sell it and get an FJ with the proceeds from the sale with the understanding that I'd have to put a little cash with it. Well, I soon found out that a little cash wasn't going to cut it. So I started looking at 4runners and Xterras. I really wanted to stick with Toyota and I finally found my 05 SR5 V6 4x4. And I got a killer deal on it. It's got high miles, 263K at the time but it was a mall crawler that had been babied it's whole life. I sold the Jeep for $4600 and bought the T4R for $3000 and had money to spend on getting it the way I want it. Now I couldn't be happier. I rarely even drive my 07 Tundra any more and the only time we drive my Camry is if we're going on a long trip and want to save on gas.
