I have been fighting with Toyota for 2 weeks now. They claim the FJ is rated for 5000 lbs tow capacity, but they have not provided a conversion to the 7 point system for the trailer brakes. They also refuse to allow a conversion to fit an electronic controller to be made to the harness. Doesn't really sound like a "5000 lb tow rating" does it?
 
I'm not too keen on hauling a large travel trailer without electric brakes (not to mention it is illegal).

I finally found a pair of running boards after extensive search on Google. Yeah!! These boards seem as real as OEM boards. Anyway, I had ordered one and it's on the way. Can't wait to have my boyfriend install them for me. LOL

The reason I bought my FJ was the 5000 pound towing ability, and I certainly thought I could get electric brakes.. What now?

I found a controller online and installed it myself. I think many RV sales places and even UHaul can do this, should cost around $200.

I'm in the market for a new FJ cruiser and have now seen a few in Minneapolis w/ a black top instead of the white top. Dealers or website have no clue? Anyone know if this is aftermarket or special edition?

FJ Hybrid? by jeyhoe

I am not making this up.
 
Yesterday I saw a new FJ Cruiser on the freeway here in No. Cal. It passed me on the left and right there on the tailgate on the passenger side under the keyhole was a standard-looking chrome badge that said "Hybrid".
 
So, does the owner of this vehicle have a whacked sense of humor? Or ...

....I feel it too. It's a slight vibration. Feels as if the a/c is turning on but it's not....but is it a problem or is it normal? Thanks
 
oh and another thing; did anyone mention anything about being able to fix the steer wheeling vibration at high speeds?

The FJ with the black top is a special edition. Only a few were made, and they are almost impossible to find. Toyota has also made a special edition white on white version, too.
