Will the 2008 fj cruiser resale value be high since this is the last year that they will be made?
I am thinking about getting a new suv and i like the fact that what you get with the cruiser is what you get.

Doubtful. The short lived run of the FJ cruiser will most likely make it loose value fast. Iniatally it will hold for a year or two, but once they are all sold value will plummet. Toyota stopped making it due to lack of demand, and if Toyota cant sell them why would you be able to in a few years??...

Why should I also consider these? X

The Xterra and Wrangler are both vehicles that, like the FJ Cruiser, draw people based on their styling and off-road prowess, and it’s mostly a matter of which styling suits you best.

All three are very capable off-road, but the Xterra is arguably the best for those who plan to tow or haul gear on the road; its V-6 feels especially perky on the road compared to the nearly equally sized engines in the other two vehicles, and it handles a bit better on the road.

The Wrangler now has a full array of safety features, along with much better handling than the old version, but its interior is slightly inferior to the others, and it still has more wind noise than the others due to its boxy shape.

The Xterra’s interior is much roomier and more versatile than the FJ’s, which has an especially cramped backseat.

Although it’s not much more expensive, the 2008 Toyota FJ Cruiser feels like a more expensive vehicle inside and out, which may give it an advantage over the Xterra.
