Default Apples or Oranges?

2005 toyota Xrunner or 2004 Lexus Is300

what would you rather drive every day?
They have about the same gas mileage. just about 20mpg give or take.
the x runner is probably a little faster, and they probably handle the same.

they both sit 4-5 people.

they are both rear wheel drive.

im just wondering what all of you would rather drive as your sole vehicle.

im debating the two.(also a Toyota FJ Cruiser thats a different story tho)

i dont know what to get... modding it probably wont be an issue. but i love audio. so the audio system would be the first upgrade.

the IS is kind of a plan jane sports sedan with Lexus badges. either you love it ot hate it but im right in the middle. i wish it was a little bit more luxury but its not.

so then i was thinking if im not going to go full luxury then i can look at the Xrunner and just have one of my friends that does interior work put some nice leather in it.
spruce it up a little bit. but then i was thinking that it is a pick up and i dont know if i could drive that every day. but maybe i could have the truck and buy another Bike for the nice weather.

but its not like the truck is 4x4 either so its kinda of a waste to have a 2x4 truck then right?
thats where the FJ comes into play........

..my head hurts...

what would all of you do?


THanks.

toyota - it's newer, plus repair cost may be cheaper.

not really worried about age...the only reason i said 04 is300 is b/c in 05 there was no LSD.
