The local Toyota dealership is offering a gift card just for driving one of their cars! But the question is: which should we drive? The FJ Cruiser is not allowed since they don’t make it anymore. So what should we try?

I tried.... not allowed on Scion vehicles!

Think that there may be a separate $25 GC for it though

I’d do an electric Prius just to see what its like. Otherwise 4Runner?

Yeah, it's insanely expensive. It's a nice rig for sure, but that's ALMOST S-Class territory.

Land Cruiser if you must though.

My local Toyota dealer should have the GT86. I’d pick that. No FWD or FWD-biased 21st century Toyota is worth it, and I don’t like tall vehicles.

The lineup is truly boring as Hell.

And my dealer has no LandCruisers, 4Runners, fj, or anything remotely exciting

Drive a Camry XSE V6. We need an Oppo review on it so we know if it’s less appliance-y or not. Also, the V6 sounds nice despite being a lame car.

Do they still make a new FJ Cruiser? Those things are just hilarious to sit in so it could at least be entertaining for a short period of time. Alternatively, anything in a manual. I doubt the dealership has any in stock but taking a manual corolla for a spin has to be somewhat entertaining.

So there are 5 minivans -or similar, a Yaris, a Corolla, a Camry and an Avalon? Is this Fifty Shades Of Grey, but without the enjoyment?

Avalon. Big, silky FWD luxobarge with a touch of sportiness. It's actually quite nice.

We had a 4Runner as a patrol vehicle when i was police. I loved the truck ride and lazy way it drives. Windshield is comically short.

I’d buy one, but the trunk is too high for my wife and they’re unnecessarily expensive
