They also have a high safety rating and a growing number of accessories. I own two. I'd own more if I had garage space. Nice vid!

This car will NEVER be outdated

Love your ride, LOVE THESE FJ'S!! I just bought one the day before you posted this! Love it! Couple weeks i'll have my setup installed going with a new set of 5100 bilstein shocks ( from trail teams addition) Family friend is selling me his 2010 trd beadlock rims from his TTE . Nitto Trail grapplers 285/75/16 w/ spidertrax 1.25 wheel spacers. I bought this car with every intentions of taking it on adventures! can't wait!

Perfect I love those 4wd Get through the dirt rds, drive up the mountains, Fishing , Hunting Road trips to Tahoe , Reno

I just bought a all white 2013 FJ 4x4 with 8,000 original miles on it and I absolutely love it. I paid $35,900 for it. It is equipped just like the one in the video. I could not be more happier. I get in it and it still has the new car smell. I agree prices are increasing on these vehicles, but I've been looking for a gem for two years, and found my dream car. Mind you, I could have gotten anything I wanted, new raptor, sports car, but I chose this beast. A true man's car! When my friends get in it, they get out wanting one. What I love most, in a parking lot, it really sticks out. FJ owner forever!!!!!!!

We have had our since 2007, never have we had any major repairs just maintenence. the only thing we've ever repaired was the battery and alternator. I've done front-end work ball joints tie rod ends but that's just comes with mileage and maintenance.

I have a 2012 FJ and love it. MPG on a return from VA to NJ just under 25 mpg. Love the ride and the entire vehicle.

have a black one and love it . plenty of power for a SUV . never had any problems whatsoever

I work at the Toyota that your vehicle is being maitenanced at, I see your YT channel sticker on the back of your vehicle. lol

10 years later I still love this fj

Hi! I bought a new FJ in 2007 with manual 6 seeps transmission. 503000 km today and running beautifully. She is my friend. She really eats up snow.

They still do in Japan. I bought one in 2017 as a new one and I still see that they have 2020 model in the showroom this year.

Had mine for a couple years. It's my dream car. I love it. 2012 FJ Cruiser

Great vid. I have a 2013 as well. To this day, I'm constantly being bombarded with offers from multiple Toyota dealerships to buy it back, though I'd NEVER EVER think about selling this potential collectible back to them. They are definitely appreciating by the year since being discontinued, but also becoming more attractive to car thieves.

I got one few months ago - I have one 2014 - I love 💕 it . Still paying 🙇🏻‍♀️. With all the flood in Houston it is a great option .

I hope you are right about them since I bought two last weekend, a 2007 TRD manual trans in black and a 2014 automatic in all white. Time will tell but I like driving classic cars, specially when they are reliable. Going to do a few modifications on the 14 but leave the 07 pretty stock. So far they are awesome though I haven’t tested them off road yet.

I have a 2007 (bought new in 2006). Full-time 4WD, manual trans. 240,000 miles and we're still rolling. I will rebuild and customize.

I'm on my second FJ. Sold my 07 with 110,000 miles and no trouble. Still have my 2013 and it's part of the family. It's built for off-road use.

Love my 2013 fj!!!👍👍👍

The inside of the FJ cruiser looks so comfy and tidy. I can imagine how nice it feels when is raining and you’re inside lol

Thank you for your video.

Recently joined the FJ owners club.. since joining the club, seems like only rust can kill this things 😔. My undercarriage is treated, but I can still see some rust.. going to treat it every year to preserve in a long time.

It;s awesome Fj

yup, I got mine in 08, still love it. got a 3 inch rough country lift and level done last winter. I'm now running 33 inch Nitto mud grapplers, I've added a cobra CB. and just threw in a K&N air intake last week. Next up for me is Corsa Cat back exhaust, headers, and bumpers.. oh and getting those lights I've had for months installed.

Just bought one 5 days ago..a 2014...my coworker has one..he found this one and called me and to my surprise..I traded my jeep wrangler sport for the FJ...Toyota put the cruise in cruiser! What a nice ride.

I have a 2007 Vodoo blue FJ. I am selling it and buying a 2014 white one that has a black roof and lots of upgrades on it. Gona miss my true blue voodoo! She has been THE best!

I own a 2013 Trail Teams FJ. I didn't get the JBL speaker option you have. I also noticed you had two speakers in the rear corners as well. Did you add those? They look stock. I don't have speakers in the rear. Also, the Trail Teams wheels are 16" instead of the 17" you see on standard FJs. This is to have higher profile tires that you can let air out of for climbing or off road traction.

I have a 2001 Tundra, it has been very reliable for the couple of years I’ve had it, as well as the many years my dad drove it before passing it down to me when he bought a 2012 Tundra from his brother. Now THAT thing is a beast! You just breathe on the gas pedal and it takes off haha. But I’m really wanting to upgrade to an FJ myself, hopefully before I go off to college.

2016 was the last year Australia got them, came with 160l fuel tank. Ended up buying one of the last new ones here.

The superchargers helped the gas mileage if you program them properly. I put a performance chip in my 4x4 2008 and it gets 26mpg and an additional 35hp. I’ve owned two. 196k and no problems to report on the 2008.

I have a 2013 TRD Trail Team Fj, love it.

I got one 2007. I love it

I love my 2007 FJ Cruiser, has never let me down, and don't foresee it ever letting me down.

i painted the door window trim and back bumber white i painted the center cap black i put mud terrain tires on i took off the crossbars and put on crossbars bt ltsport...i had the yellow one but bought the white one...one of the safest vehicles out there....will keep it forever!!!!

I got the 17 runner and love it.

They are a blast to drive my xterra 4x4 feels like a mini van compared to my FJ. Used as a second vehicle my 07 FJ only has 48,000 mi.

Great video

💙 my toyota fj cherry 2008 ! Saludos desde México!🇲🇽

I bought mine in 07 loved it till 2016 and sold it to get my semi fixed regret it everyday! I want another one!

I like your video. I bought my '07 at Toyota and when I bring it in for oil changes the Acquisitions manager offered me $5000 more than what I paid for mine. I'm keeping my FJ...it will be a classic.

Love mine!

When you replace your tires, stay away from Dunlops. They're horrendous off-road. I only use BFG's. Extraordinary tire. (The Coopers are great as well, but I remain solidly in the BFG camp).

Best SUV I ever owned! Good power, smooth ride, very safe! I even had to avoid a tire on the freeway at night and she went around it like she was on rails. I bought her for 27,000 and two years later, sold her for 28,000.

I'm looking for one now, already looked at 4 and test driven 2 an 07 & an 08 but thought the undercarriage was to rusty Im in the NE so even though that's normal for around here, I want one better than that so I can properly give it a professional under coating before rust eats the vehicle from under me. I Looked at a 2012 yesterday but it had no options, but this 2010 one today has many options, I like minus the roof rake : ( it looks promising got my fingers crossed and it's also iceburg white, I also like Silver Tan & cement. Would like to say as nice as they are be sure you check the undercarriage Before you buy! 😜👍👍

The steering on these things is really heavy but you can go 90 on the interstate and you only feel like you’re going 60

I love the FJ Cruiser, I have been driving mine since Dec 2014

Still selling overseas. I have a white 2011 FJ and love it. Tow my 18ft. travel trailer. I've been offered more than I paid for it 2X.

And the Toyota Prado sold in Australia - check it out 👍

I have a 2010 in same iceberg white with all the bells except for the subwoofer. I won’t mess with Japanese engineering so everything stock except for BFG All terrain KO2’s.

Toyota still making FJs for other markets like the Middle East and Asia and they're introducing touch screen in their latest model but that's all they can upgrade. I still admire this iconic SUV even though it drinks too much I'm still considering trading my Montero to this one. It's just a lovely car to own.🏎🏎🏎

Love this car 🚗.

"i get it...sacrifice vision for coolness" lol. people freaking out about the C-pillar haven't driven one, because it's not bad at all. i've had mine for like 5 years, modified a ton of crap, and not a single thing has ever gone wrong with it. these things are amazing for what they are.

good stuff

Japan and America pretty much stopped around the same time, 2014. Only the UAE had them til early 2017?

I have 07 with 6 inch lift love it

Very nice Scion.

Thanks!

I had an '07 FJ full time 6 speed. Driving it was like mainlining fun!!!! Selling it was the biggest automotive mistake of my life. Even though I love my '10 Tacoma TRD off road 6 speed, I still have FJ withdrawals every time I see one with the manual transmission !

Still available here in South Africa we love them

Im planning on getting a used one,tho the 1GR engine is sold here for almost 3000 or more here...but the engines i heard are s life time.

I love my FJ Cruiser and inspite of the high resale value I will never ever give him up. We owned a 2003 4Runner and it took 9 years before it had a problem with the air conditioning relay. And that is it. The only thing we ever changed was the tires and the wiper blades but other than that never changed or had to replace any of the lights, battery, muffler nothing else. Toyota is the most reliable & best engineered automobiles on the planet. Getting my FJ Cruiser was an important step towards getting my very 1st Trophy vehicle. Yeah I take it off road but he gets an upscale salon job immediately after.

I love my FJ. Best resale value since they were on the market. I believe Japan and USA stopped around the same time in 2014. I think only the UAE had them made til early 2017? Those are standard alloy wheels. Trd supercharger isn't the way to go now, it's all about Magnusons now. Like you said, not the fastest or most hp, but they sure can climb

I hope the bring them back. They make me happy every time I see them.

I love the retro interior!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Late bloomer here ...Just got a used 2008 TT edition 95k on odo. I fell in love instantly. Already thinking of getting a second one LOL.

I have one 2014 and I love it pristine conditions 44k miles

Still have my yellow 2007 FJ!

They still sell them brand new in Philippines. Around 35,000USD.

Just curious what a trip in this is like in the back seat... Seems a little claustrophobic with so little window beside your head and a solid window you can't roll down

The fj's are amazing

I love this car, the only problem is the fuel consumption, but it looks gorgeous.

You can still get a 2017 in Saudi Arabia.

U forgot about the AC/DC outlet in the back near the rear door.

Sadly, one of the worst selling Toyota's in the US market. That's why Toyota canned them. Nothing to do with how well they perform or their reliability, sales killed it. Such a shame. Toyota should have kept it and upgraded it just like the Jeep and the Wrangler.

You can still buy one in middle east. 2021 Just arrived yesterday in Kuwait 🇰🇼👌🏻 I just bought one!

The TRD Supercharger is only available for 2009 model years and earlier. Only URD has one for 2010 +...

For the small size of the fuel tank I find my FJ is not bad as far as fuel consumption. Just under 500km to that 80ltr tank.

Bought one and will keep it forever they still make 2020 models

No other vehicle like it on the road. People still don’t know what it is 😂. I get asked that constantly. It has it’s pros and cons. But hey I love my fj!!!! Better get one b4 there all gone. The used prices of these things are going up everyday. Only other vehicle is a Jeep, and everybody and their grandmothers has one. Not nocking jeep. You just can’t stand out with one.

Have a '07 with 130K miles. Had a Tacoma... and researched all types of trucks and SUVs for months before deciding on this weird looking vehicle. Hands down, best vehicle I've ever owned... and I've owned plenty. Consumer Reports screwed up bad by not recommending the FJ, and plenty of owners let them know it. Mileage is no worse than many SUVs and the limited vision with the outside mirrors is essentially eliminated by adding medium-sized convex stick-on mirrors. Add-on accessories are endless. You can't go wrong with this vehicle unless you've got several kids with really long legs to haul around. In all, this is one of a rare few vehicles you can take to the apocalypse!! On a lighter note, do you know of any other production vehicles that come with speakers in the ceiling? In my job I never know where I'll end up on a given day. What I do know is that I may get lost, but I won't get stuck.

There is something about being behind the wheel of an Fj I live mine

I used to own a brand new 2008 FJ C model had to pay child support couldn't make the payments now that the kids are all grown up and moved away I just bought a 2009 FJ it's awesome

These cars also have their issues if four-wheel driving too hard on rough terrain you could crack the firewall, many complaints that a crack in the firewall develop due to four wheeling.

They still sell these in kuwait and are still in production

LOVE my 2010!!!!!!!!!!!!

The FJ Cruiser continued for 2 more years in Australia and the Middle East, and then final production was 2017 in Japan, all RHD models.

stock locker at a reasonable price, Fast too 0-60 is respectable for city driving. Gas mileage sucks but when you factor in the performance you get it's actually not too bad. I wish they had an option for sport mode or eco adjusting the shifting when required. Must have those blindspot mirror stickers for your sideview. Makes the blindspots a non factor

I wanted one. Can't afford it now.

Just bought a 2007 FJ with only 75,000 miles. Love this rig!

They are still in production. Just not sold in the U.S.

Cool review man. The huge C-pillar is designed that way for engineering reasons due to the abscence of a traditional B-pillar. Love the FJ's, yes they are ugly and weird, you either hate or love them. It is a well built machine.

Should I buy a 2wd 2007 Toyota FJ with 125000 miles for $8500? It has a full exhaust, upgraded radio, backup camera. No accidents

I really want one, I'm based in the EU so looking at maybe importing from Japan. Anyone done this themselves before at all? I'm googling the shit out of that now.

I want one

This is one of the cars on my bucket list. Really didn't like cluster phobic feeling behind the wheel, but haven't actually driven one to know. All I know is that it is reliable as a Toyota and 9/10th as good as a Jeep, AND still better to travel in than a Jeep, albeit slightly so.

I love my Fj

My favorite FJ is the 4Runner, looks better, better rear visability, with the 3rd row you can fit more SOB's and slimer on the trail.

I have a 2014 TTUE Heritage blue TRD, Never sell! I want to supercharge it but not for 6k.

They still make them in the Philippines. Elsewhere on KZfaq brand new 2019 Toyota vehicles on showroom floor is brand new fj cruiser 4wd auto with all the bells in black with newer interior trims. Around 35k USD

at what mileage would you overhaul/change ENGINE,,,,,,,,,,,ONELOVE,,, I own a 2007 fj v6 4x4
