    I think F stands for some code like fast or engine code and J stands for Jeep.

    I'm going to have to look that up and see if I can find it. That's really interesting and I never thought about what it stands for.

    huh, "F" stands for some kind of code and the "J" stands for jeep. Yeah, not really feeling it on that answer, sorry.

    Wow - sure wish it was something really cool like Fast Jet or something. Come on Toyota... come up with something cooler.... at least something different to match the uniqueness of the FJ Cruisers!

    Surely there has to be something more to the meaning than that................ at least, I hope so.

    The "F" stands for the Type F Gasoline engine the switched to in 1954 from the original Type B. The "J" actually stands for jeep

    Really? FJ means F-Gasoline Jeep? lol, I thought it would have been something a little bit more exotic than that, but doesn't matter it's still a pretty awesome ride.
