Toyota - it auto-prostitute: A lot of asking for money, all to cover up trinkets and cheap crap inside her and she can not do anything besides how to tip over on its back legs and pull up (the wheels).
YeahI know that noise all too well, that idiot sheared every gear off the ring, don't ever gun the engine like that while the frames resting on the incline, get out, ready the winch if you have one and pull yourself up. He's lucky he didn't drop the drive shaft in the process.
Video was posted in 2006...2007 models and up had a lot of things changed on them after the 06 year. If they weren't so overpriced in Australia I bet you'd see them all over the Outback just like the Land Cruisers. In the land of Oz they call Jeep's "Cheep's" cause their not reliable. The FJ is going to have its faults, but at least its not a cliche 4x4 like Jeep...And an FYI for anyone who wonders, the FJ has quick disconnects for the doors, so yes, you can wheel doorless with an FJ.
@MrChuckwnorris , yes I agree to that. No hard feelings for hummers, I was just in a bad mood. I'm a Jeeper but I see Jeeps and Hummers on the same side versus all the japsy cars and other ripps. American ftw.
@MrChuckwnorris you mean H2 and H3?? the H1 i would have to say is the only real name holder to the humvees, or the military M1165 A1's or what I drive the M1151 up-armored humvee. but I agree a H2 and H3 are wastes of money
@PFCWILLIAMS19 yes the 2 and 3. H1 is when GM got their hands into it, in 2000. The original hummer didn't need the H1 name, because there were no others out for civilians. Most of the first generation civilian models are kick ass and have a solid build base.
awwe how cute he is worried about scraping his vehcile offroading.
What a DUMBASS if your offroading how gives a shit about scrapping a damn bumper. And he kills it trying to climb it lol Both my Wrangler and Cherokee would climb this no problem but not these wanna be luxury offroad pieces of shit.
"It's a JEEP thing you wouldn't understand" He called it a super climb lol How many toyota dumbasses does it take to figure out the the FJ sux... about 10 trying to get him up that "MONSTER CLIMB"

You are all idiots....anyone can break any truck or 4x4 anytime....its called not knowing what the hell you are doing. Just because a truck or SUV is a 4x4 or offroad vehicle doesnt mean there arent techniques to driving and navigating off road. If you cannot read a trail or dont know how to approach the obsticle you are going to break your vehicle or get stuck every time.
I really don't care what people think is the best off-roader, but I know one thing, that would never happen to my jeep.
and why would people dislike this video?? the video delivered what the title promised, so why would you dislike it? you wanted to see a new Fj cruiser breaking and thats what you saw.
@Scrambler85 Actually the market shows that the percentage of "mall crawlers" is by far mostly made up of Jeeps and Hummers. The % of people who own Toyota FJs (FJ = Land Cruiser) and Land Rovers and actually go off road at some time is about 75%, compare that to only about 40% of people who own Jeeps/Hummers/other American garbage cans. FJ can't be a soccer mom car you tard, it doesn't have enough doors or capacity.
FJ's can do anything a Jeep can and more, Jeeps can't do everything a FJ can.
An FJ can't do half the shit my Cherokee or Wrangler can.
If you want to talk "statistics" Statistics show 85% of statistics are wrong. If you look at jeeps and FJs MOST jeeps go offroading. There is only one FJ around here that goes offroading, I don't know of a single Jeep owner that doesn't go off roading.
FJ's suck bottom line. I have offroaded with a FJ on 35" and my cherokee is on 33" and I pulled him out 3 times in one day........
@spydergs07 Sure guy, I can tell by your writing mannerism that you're lying. If you aren't lying, then you're just a complete moron.
FJ can't do half the shit a Cherokee can huh? That's funny: a FJ can drive to the North Pole (Cherokee can't), FJ races Baja 1000 and win (Cherokee can't), FJ will last 300K+ miles, FJ can reach Everest Base camp (Cherokee can't), FJ operate in Antarctica (Cherokee's can't)... can you see the pattern forming here? Go anywhere on Earth, LC is the only way to go.
@DoomGoon138 Yes, they do and have won the Baja, look it up, there's plenty of videos here documenting it. They've also taken 2nd by only 30 seconds.
Who want's to drive to operate in Antarctica? Gee, I don't know, physicists, geologists, cartographers, Nat Geo, etc, etc. The point is it's the harshest place on earth BY FAR, and only Toyota's can handle the task.

Ive found one case where they won the Baja 250, and one time they got third in the 1000. Thats it tho, unless you have some other places with some more info.
And thats cool for the people at Nat Geo, but for the rest of us you enjoy offroading in the normal world, Ill take my Jeep, ive gone places in my stock Jeep where my friend has gotten stuck with his FJ, and my Jeep has almost 200,000 miles on it.
thats an automatic right off the lot. no lift no bars. you have no idea how to go fourwheeling. I'll take my 77 cherokee chief or 84 4runner and whomp your fj. I love fj's but you gay little base model doesn't cut it.
This is SOOOO funny! Watch the air bag go off!!! What part of this is not a JEEP do these FJ folks not understand? Seriously! I just sold my JK Rubicon, do to the constant water leaks, but my new FJ is a joke in off-road comparison! Smoother ride though and hey, I’m dry! LOL.
@hunna122 my cherokee would smoke any fj. I've went up and over obstacles way bigger and steeper then that and I don't have to have someone tell me to go and have a spotter nor do I have to worry about where my tires are going my Jeep wouldn't spin tires and die like that toyota. Sorry I had a toyota and it sucked horribly. I have put my Cherokee through way more and it has over 250,000 miles and still runs better then a new toyota
Let's see your Jeep be used for Antarctic expeditions, oh wait, only Toyotas can handle that. How about you drive your Jeep to the North Pole, this FJ has done it, so has the Hilux and Prado... all Toyotas, where's the Jeep? Oh, that's right, Jeep was challenged by Toyota and tries every year but fails.
Wow, 250K miles on a Jeep you must be proud, I'm sure you brag about that all the time... to bad that's less than the average mileage for a Toyota. I have a FJ45 with 428K+.
Come to tennessee and I will show you a badass offroader. Isnt toyota the one that is still fixing 4.5 MILLION vehicles because they suck at making vehicles. My brother has had his toyota pickup for less then a year and his motor blew. Im running close to 260000 miles and wont stop for anything. I would put 6 months of my salary against your piece of shit fj. FJ Fake J
@spydergs07 No, the problem was with a 3rd party manufacturer, not Toyota. Guess what the 3rd party made parts which are on Jeeps, Fords and a bunch of other cars, they're all having issues. The only difference is that Toyota is fixing the problem for free, whereas American companies are denying it because it would hurt their already failing business.
If your brother blew an engine in < year on a new car, then your brother is a retard and shouldn't be allowed to drive.
@spydergs07 The accelerator issue is nothing; it isn't on any of Toyota's trucks/SUVs, and there's only a 1/200,000 chance your car will suffer from the problem. Jeeps on the other hand have a much bigger issue. It's called wheel walk; the wheel literally "walks" its way loose and off the axle causing catastrophic vehicle failure. Jeep's solution... there isn't one, they don't care, they'll tighten everything down for you. Jeeps - made in Mexico/Canada w/Chinese parts, FJ - made in Japan.
@seventhSabra Right, and there must be some huge media cover up of Jeeps much bigger wheel walking problem. Again, why don't cite some references to support your argument?
He must be drunk because why in the world would you attempt this? You must know your limits, and clearly this kid didn't know much about off roading. And the hell is breaken?
@meattube4u33 whats an fj4o have u ever seen an fj40 its not even a four door the fj cruiser in my oppinion is a soccer mom car but not the fj40 the fj 40 will go where a stock wrangler wont
A wrangler wouldn't have had this problem... Nor would you have needed a spotter to make it up that... Perhaps this could be blamed on one of Toyota's many recalls?
The FJ is to much of a wanna be luxury vehicle then offroad. They are ment to be a mall crawler not a rock crawler. Get a jeep and you can go anywhere even up a little rock like this one
Update: I bought the 2010 FJ Trail Teams, and at 1300 miles I rammed it into an ice puddle. No skid plate up front, folded the radiator, $3000 in damage.....
I'm working on converting the vid to youtube. You'll love it...
I got to admit these FJ's are great for a stock off roader. But you got to know your limits. That is a big part of wheeling, knowing your limits and knowing when to hang back. That is why I wheel a beat up sami. I don't care about dents and scratches. it's got plenty. I've been up lion's back, hells gate, poison spider, suicide hill, and many other trails and have been really impressed by my rig and learned alot.
you think that since the jeep is the original 4x4 its the best..i gotta tell you ...along with a whole lot or other people since its the first doent mean its the best...theyre comparable to dog shit
the toughness what are you a fucking homo, those jeeps werent tough they were constantly breaking down, they probably caused more casualties in ww2 than any other machinery on the beaches of normandy
your an idiot. y did every commander on the front lines praise the jeep, along with the president saying they helped win the war in europe. learn your shit before you speak
yeah the president who wasnt there at the time...what you dont know is that they were constantly breaking down....that makes you an idiot because you dont know your shit and you spoke up...and your a fucking retard so theres nothing more to say about you
the humvees are breaking down now. the military puts those vehicles through hell of course some are going to break down, i kno some did. why the fuck are u trashing them anyway? they were the best vehicle at the time. they did field tests between three cars, the jeep, the bantam, and a&m,the jeep won and was put into production. so once again kno your shit before you speak, the jeep was the best of the time. any other would have cuased more deaths
lmfao constantly breaken down eh.WOW it is you that need a history lesson the jeep was in the military service since ww1 ww2 korea vietnam bosnia kosovo and was decommisioned in the mid eighties being replaced by the hmmvee whichin its brief military stint is being replaced by the mrap.Thus far jeep has been hailed by commanders and presidents as well as GIs as a very valuable and dependable asset and themilitary jeep was a m38 general purpose vehicle/ shorted by GIs to GP then blended to jeep.
Not to mention then countless jeep kaisers in the ranks doing the medium duty logistics it was theyre 1 ton logistics vehicles. Do some history bub The jeep was dependable tough and nimble on the battlefield talk to a ww2 veteran shit talk to 10 and 9 out of ten will remeber the m38 willys. It was in service since the late 20s right up to the mid 80s if it was a pos why was it in service for so long? hmmmmm it was a proven asset
I gotta say, I hate FJ Cruisers, but this got further than my Jeep Grand Cherokee would have the way mine is now. If I put a lift on it sure, then it would do it. But dude, air down ur tires, and then the first thing u do before going rock climbing, or most any rough offroading is get reinforced tie rods, not stock street ones, and then buy spares if you are serious about it. Most guys I know have half of their suspension sitting in spares in the back of their trucks.
wooo boy look at the red on those necks and wats with old mate wearing gloves sook get ur hands dirty it mite ruff em up a bit and feel nice next time ur jerkin off
shoulda not used that fj for that business. thats pretty hard core for that suv. its too long and its tires are too small, plus going up that at a slight angle woulda been better
ouch is right, stinkin tie roads seem to be the weakest link no matter how strong they are. Just be glad it wasn't a axle shaft up front, IFS makes me worry so much because they just can't be as strong
I'm not surprised about your first point. I've got a celica..100k miles, new engine, new trans, not abused. As for the "Screw jap crap..blah blah", they don't need to say it, the video speaks for itself. It, like just about every other SUV out there other than the Jeeps, is a mall crawler.
lol thats gotta hurt GET SOME FRONT LOCKERS AND GET RID OF THE IFS. IFS is know regardless of maker as being good on road comfort but poor reliability on the trails. nice try tho
Just for authentication, my daughter shot this video. He broke his rear ring and pinion. When that happened, his front tires dug in. Combined with extra throttle at that point, his tie rod adjusters bent, allowing the front tires to look at each other.
Toyota covered the ring and pinion under warranty, but not the tie rod adjusters because of the lift and larger tires.
His FJ was not stock. He had a small lift with larger tires. He was following his bro-n-law up this trail.
This was a ride sponsored by a Land Cruiser club. A group representing Toyota was there, as well, in similarly prepared FJs. They went up the same trail. This was his 1st time to go off road. He just used a little too much skinny pedal at the wrong moment.
I thought that is what it was. Most people when the first start out always want to "power out" I see more damage that way. Then again I did the same shit when I was younger.
bahahaahah stupid ass rednecks. americans are always ina rush..therefore inthis case they break shit and blame the brand. could have just spent a couple of minute digging and flattening it out..but noooo. lets go as quick as we can up the virtical ledge..ahh daahhh
Do you hear these people bitchen like you about the brand? Also if everyone dug and flattened the trail, there would be no challenging trails left... I agree it looks like they could have taken a better line...but who the hell are you and I to question them? We were not there!
I was there and nobody was rushing to go anywhere. This guy was following his Bro-n-law, I believe it was. This was his 1st off road trek. He just about made it. Maybe could have taken a little better line. The FJ Cruiser team was there as well and went up the same spot later that day.
Some people like to push their rigs to the limit. They break, they learn, they upgrade, they go again!
Hahahaha, Uncleflaco....I suppose everything in you're wardrobe is made in the USA too. How about the computer you're typing on? Is every bit of what you eat grown in the USofA? Jeez dude, take a chill pill and grow up. All you "BUY AMERICAN" people are hypocrites. I bet you shop at Wal-Mart.
Besides, maybe if more American cars would last as long as a lot Japanese cars people would be willing to buy them.
This is all coming from a guy who owns a '79 Z28 and loves American muscle cars.

I am a Jeep guy and I gladly wheel with Hummer, Dodge, Ford, GMC, Chevy. Land Rover is British and they don't F us with every opportunity and block our goods and products like the Jap Keiretsu system. Fuck Japan - I wouldn't buy their shit if it was for $1 - sell-outs. Go move to Japan and kill some whales; if you're going to sell out, then do it 100% and quit half assing about it.
98 percent of the goods sold to YOU are made in places aside from america... sounds like somebody needs to open their eyes and check out one of the local ports sometime... the japanese have their shit straight when it comes to cars... so quit complaining.. this FJ would out last your jeep all day long.. so stfu- you don even have a clue as to how our economic machine runs...
@mdawg4x4 Of course it isn't. All US manufacturers use Delphi to supply the bulk of parts and accessories for autos and trucks. Delphi have been manufacturing in China since 1993. And a lot more so in recent years. A big chunk of our US assembled cars parts come from China. (Like pretty much everything else).
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I see you're in the USA - thanks for buying American and supoprting a US company deuche bag. Maybe the next job that is outsourced will be yours - I don't give a F if that crap is assembled here either. The Japs do it to pay lower tariffs. I bought Jeep - made here by an American company and my solid axle JK will destroy your shit. Thanks again for being a sellout a-hole!
hellyeah man. japan has everyone in america tricked.. They have already taken every other business we once had and now all thats left is our american vehicles. ill never buy a foreign car because i wont take part in ruining our economy even more.
- EVERYBODY GETS STUCKED SOMETIME. Ask my old winch :P which in 6 months have helped no less than 20, JEEPS INCLUDED!
- FINALLY this should not be a discussion about JEEP vs THE OTHERS thing no matter what ENJOY OFF-ROADING! MAKE FRIENDS! THAT´S ALL ABOUT! JUST LIKE ANY OTHER HOBBIE
- When you go off-roading you must go with people you trust, be willing to give not one but both hands to anybody who needs it. I would be affraid to go wheeling with some of you "Jeep guys". Just because someone owns something different should not be judged like you guys do. I own a Dodge Durango and had an Isuzu Trooper before, I´ll tell with no shame that both of them have broke MANY TIMES, and that doesn´t make me a stupid driver, I´ve learned a lot in 3 years and still have more to learn
i thought it was a good video, but then it just made me mad at the end when you started talking about lieing to toyota about bending somebody elses tierod. you clearly did it. thats just lying and its plain wrong
I heard they where going to take a tierod off another FJ to get the guy off the obstacle, then take the damaged part to a Toyota dealership to get it replaced. I didn't hear any lying...
You see tons of videos of people on YouTube doing stupid shit with FJ's. It's not the trucks fault it's popular...
Fact is- stupid people are everywhere. It doesn't matter what they drive. You'll find one in every corner of the market. Most, scour YouTube in search of video...
people compare these to a jeep but all they have in common is 4X4. As "Offroadersdotcom" said this is stock and taking it EASY. How many real stock off road motors do you see doing anything impressive on youtube. Apart from the old Unimog, old truck but you cant beet it. I think everybody gets stuck every now and then, thats why you do it!
These things will go anywhere with a half skilled driver. Without a winch, he shouldn't have chosen to attempt that obstacle.
My choice would still be my FJ60 Land Cruiser though, its simpler and has a solid front axle = less things to break out on the trail.

Sorry I had a toyota and it sucked horribly. I have put my Cherokee through way more and it has over 250,000 miles and still runs better then a new toyota

@spydergs07 Liar.
Let's see your Jeep be used for Antarctic expeditions, oh wait, only Toyotas can handle that. How about you drive your Jeep to the North Pole, this FJ has done it, so has the Hilux and Prado... all Toyotas, where's the Jeep? Oh, that's right, Jeep was challenged by Toyota and tries every year but fails.
Wow, 250K miles on a Jeep you must be proud, I'm sure you brag about that all the time... to bad that's less than the average mileage for a Toyota. I have a FJ45 with 428K+.

Come to tennessee and I will show you a badass offroader. Isnt toyota the one that is still fixing 4.5 MILLION vehicles because they suck at making vehicles. My brother has had his toyota pickup for less then a year and his motor blew. Im running close to 260000 miles and wont stop for anything. I would put 6 months of my salary against your piece of shit fj. FJ Fake J
eep....
spydergs07 1 year ago
@spydergs07 No, the problem was with a 3rd party manufacturer, not Toyota. Guess what the 3rd party made parts which are on Jeeps, Fords and a bunch of other cars, they're all having issues. The only difference is that Toyota is fixing the problem for free, whereas American companies are denying it because it would hurt their already failing business.
If your brother blew an engine in < year on a new car, then your brother is a retard and shouldn't be allowed to drive.
438K mi on my Toyota

@spydergs07 The accelerator issue is nothing; it isn't on any of Toyota's trucks/SUVs, and there's only a 1/200,000 chance your car will suffer from the problem. Jeeps on the other hand have a much bigger issue. It's called wheel walk; the wheel literally "walks" its way loose and off the axle causing catastrophic vehicle failure. Jeep's solution... there isn't one, they don't care, they'll tighten everything down for you. Jeeps - made in Mexico/Canada w/Chinese parts, FJ - made in Japan.
seventhSabra 1 year ago
@seventhSabra Right, and there must be some huge media cover up of Jeeps much bigger wheel walking problem. Again, why don't cite some references to support your argument?

I got to admit these FJ's are great for a stock off roader. But you got to know your limits. That is a big part of wheeling, knowing your limits and knowing when to hang back. That is why I wheel a beat up sami. I don't care about dents and scratches. it's got plenty. I've been up lion's back, hells gate, poison spider, suicide hill, and many other trails and have been really impressed by my rig and learned alot.

the humvees are breaking down now. the military puts those vehicles through hell of course some are going to break down, i kno some did. why the fuck are u trashing them anyway? they were the best vehicle at the time. they did field tests between three cars, the jeep, the bantam, and a&m,the jeep won and was put into production. so once again kno your shit before you speak, the jeep was the best of the time. any other would have cuased more deaths

lmfao constantly breaken down eh.WOW it is you that need a history lesson the jeep was in the military service since ww1 ww2 korea vietnam bosnia kosovo and was decommisioned in the mid eighties being replaced by the hmmvee whichin its brief military stint is being replaced by the mrap.Thus far jeep has been hailed by commanders and presidents as well as GIs as a very valuable and dependable asset and themilitary jeep was a m38 general purpose vehicle/ shorted by GIs to GP then blended to jeep.

It was in service since the late 20s right up to the mid 80s if it was a pos why was it in service for so long? hmmmmm it was a proven asset

I gotta say, I hate FJ Cruisers, but this got further than my Jeep Grand Cherokee would have the way mine is now. If I put a lift on it sure, then it would do it. But dude, air down ur tires, and then the first thing u do before going rock climbing, or most any rough offroading is get reinforced tie rods, not stock street ones, and then buy spares if you are serious about it. Most guys I know have half of their suspension sitting in spares in the back of their trucks.

rckr24 3 years ago 2
Just for authentication, my daughter shot this video. He broke his rear ring and pinion. When that happened, his front tires dug in. Combined with extra throttle at that point, his tie rod adjusters bent, allowing the front tires to look at each other.
Toyota covered the ring and pinion under warranty, but not the tie rod adjusters because of the lift and larger tires.

His FJ was not stock. He had a small lift with larger tires. He was following his bro-n-law up this trail.
This was a ride sponsored by a Land Cruiser club. A group representing Toyota was there, as well, in similarly prepared FJs. They went up the same trail. This was his 1st time to go off road. He just used a little too much skinny pedal at the wrong moment.

I was there and nobody was rushing to go anywhere. This guy was following his Bro-n-law, I believe it was. This was his 1st off road trek. He just about made it. Maybe could have taken a little better line. The FJ Cruiser team was there as well and went up the same spot later that day.

- NO ONE was born knowing how to off-road and it was this guy´s first time, and this is a bad track for a starter I think.
