Welcome Hunter!
I was in the same boat when I bought my FJ. I had a Tacoma for years and loved it, but I didn't like the drum brakes in the back. They always get filled with mud when I go pheasant hunting and needed to be cleaned out before they froze solid. The FJ had disc brakes all the way around so I took a look at one. Well even though I never considered myself an SUV guy, I rolled the bones and bought one. I am glad I did. It handles better than the Tacoma off-road, gives me loads of interior space to play with, and the rubberized interior is easy to clean-up. Me and the dogs love it.
One downside though, if you pheasant hunt like me and your dogs get into a fight with a skunk, it's a long ride home.
