Go off-roading in style with the 2012 Toyota FJ Cruiser.

Competing with the Jeep Wrangler and Nissan Xterra for rugged superiority, the 2012 FJ Cruiser shows off a retro look and is available in two trims: MT and AT. Powering the FJ Cruiser is a 260-horsepower, 4.0-liter V-6 engine that generates 271 pounds-feet of torque, which is good for 5,000 pounds of towing capacity. The two-wheel drive model is paired to a five-speed automatic and the four-wheel-drive models are mated to either the automatic or a six-speed manual transmission and includes a two-speed transfer case with a 2.57:1 low-range ratio.

The Off-Road Package features trail-tuned Bilstein shocks, an electronically controlled locking rear differential, Active Traction Control, and a floating-ball Multi-Information Display with inclinometer to show how steep the terrain is. The TRD Package rides on special 16-inch, 6-spoke alloy wheels with BFGoodrich tires and high-speed-tuned TRD Bilstein shocks.

What sets the 2012 FJ Cruiser apart from other sport-oriented vehicles is its white roof and wraparound rear-quarter windows. The FJ Cruiser was meant to get dirty, and even features three windshield wipers to help keep the windshield clear. Resting on standard 17-inch wheels, the FJ Cruiser has rear-hinged access doors for backseat entry and a classic rear swing gate with spare tire.

The interior of the 2012 Toyota FJ Cruiser is rustic and minimalistic with a flat dashboard and roll bar-esque grips along the dash. A six-speaker audio system, SiriusXM Satellite Radio, auxiliary audio jack, USB port with iPod connectivity, and Bluetooth capability are just some of the cool tech features that come standard. Other standard features include: water-resistant fabric-trimmed front seats, eight-way adjustable driver’s seat, heavy-duty all-weather flooring and rear deck and cargo area tie-down hooks are also standard. A JBL 11-speaker sound system, leather-trimmed three-spoke steering wheel and backup camera are optional.

In terms of safety, the Institute for Highway Safety gave the 2012 Toyota FJ Cruiser the top rating of Good in frontal-offset and side-impact crash tests. Front-seat side-impact airbags, all-disc antilock brakes, an electronic stability control system and a roll-sensing feature that deploys the side curtain airbags in the event of a rollover are all potential life savers.

Roll out to the dunes, desert, or mountains with the rugged, stylish, and capable 2012 Toyota FJ Cruiser.

*Incentive programs are subject to change at any time by the manufacturer.

Secret 1
Consumer Incentives

Zero percent financing, employee discount, cash back, out-the-door price tags...

Most dealers work hard to offer the public competitive prices. These incentives can grab your attention, but they can also obscure the actual terms you're getting on your purchase.

How can you fully understand incentives to get the lowest possible price on your car?

Get our free quote, and we'll tell you the secret.

Secret 2
Finance & Insurance

Most state franchise laws prohibit manufacturers from selling cars directly to the public, so the dealer will be your middleman. But in terms of financing and insurance, you can choose a bank or the dealer directly.

How can you determine what's in your best interest?

Secret 3
Additional Costs

Destination charges, taxes, license and title fees, advertising fees... When going to a dealership, you must ask for an explanation of any fee you don't understand. But you need to choose your battles wisely. Your local car dealer may have taken a loss or slim profit along the way, and your fighting over something like a doc fee when the deal is nearly wrapped up may be counterproductive.

In any case, there are many fees and charges in the sale process: some inevitable, others questionable. How do you tell them apart?

Secret 4
Trade-in Value

If you currently own a car, it probably represents profit. The question is, whose profit will it be?

With few exceptions, you'll get the most money for your used car by selling it privately. That's because dealers pay wholesale prices — not retail prices — for used cars, and they sell them at retail.

Your current car's value can be used to lower the price on your new car. However, most people underestimate their used car's value when going to a dealership. How can you maximize your value?

Get our free quote, and we'll tell you the secret.

Secret 5
Dealer Holdback

The car manufacturer holds back a fraction of the price of all vehicles the dealership sells. Then, it returns the money to the dealership, usually on a quarterly basis.

Dealer holdback began its life as a safety net that ensured the manufacturers would have a security deposit of sorts if a dealership missed payments, and the dealerships would have money on hand to cover overhead costs when the holdback was returned.

How can you take advantage of dealer holdbacks to get the bottom line price?

Secret 6
Dealer Incentives

Unlike consumer incentives, dealer incentives are factory-to-dealer incentives that reduce the dealer's true cost to buy the vehicle from the factory to below invoice.

Manufacturers offer these incentives on a regional basis to generate sales on specific models. These incentives are sometimes referred to as "spiffs," and they can touch off competition among dealers to move slower-selling stock.

For instance, a dealer incentive may kick in when a certain sales target is reached, with each subsequent sale resulting in a higher factory-to-dealer rebate. How can you benefit from that?
