If you want to know why the Japanese set the standards for the North American auto market, look no further than the 2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser. Here's a vehicle that's intended to generate attention for Toyota rather than actual sales, known in the industry as a "halo vehicle." But while many American and European halo vehicles prioritize style over convenience, the FJ Cruiser is unique in that it was designed to be practical as well. $23,735 base price ($31,953 as tested); 3 year/36,000 mile basic warranty; 6 year/60,000 mile powertrain warranty; EPA estimates: 16 mpg city/19 mpg highway.
