amazing video you have here!!! both the FJ and Jeep are amazing offroading machines!! also what are the tires that are on the jeep? they look pretty nice. i have the tires that are on the FJ
What kinda parts have been added to the jeep? I'm gonna get a wrangler sahara and was interested in tires, suspension, etc. Could you give me the details of the parts please?
Awesome video...I like the FJ and the Jeep!! FJ is so capable but still a nice commute makes it a great all around choice. What a sweet ride the FJ is!
But who doesn't love the Jeep? It is such a part of US history.
I'm pretty sure that there were several times when the toyota got stuck and couldn't make it, while the jeep proceeded with ease. Then there were also some times when the jeep would do something crazy, that the toyota would break if it tried to.
regardless what people say, toyota makes off-road suv as good or better than jeep. when it comes to reliability, notting comes close, iv seen toyotas over 500.000 miles and still runing ..
That was great to watch...especially that hill at the end. I would love to see some rain and snow conditions also. I'm debating which one I should buy a Jeep Wrangler or Toyota FJ?
FJ is a beast, great dail driver as well, the JEEP will always beable to be better due to the aftermarket but the FJ is way better incomfort and as a dual purpose rig.
They're both great cars. I think it mostly comes down to personal preference if you were to choose between the two. I would personally get the FJ Cruiser because I like the retro look more and have always trusted Toyota's reliability. That's only speaking from personal experience since I have never actually owned a Jeep. For all I could know they're reliability could be just as great.
What an incredible video. The drivers know their stuff - great handling of the rigs. I only have 1 negative comment......I missed my invitation in the mail. Maybe next year. Take care.....by the way the photographer did a great job.
FJ's have their place, but Yesterday we recovered an FJ Cruiser that went over a cliff 60 ft. down into a riverbed. it would have been impossible to do without our Jeeps. the width of the trail plus the weight and location of the lost rig would have made it damn near impossible to do the job with any other vehicle. long live Jeep. (1993 YJ wrangler, 4" lift, 33" mud terrain tires, stock 4.0L motor, Warn M8274-50 winch.)

Toyota failed with the current FJ by making it to hwy oriented. Too much clad, not enough core. Toy must be scared there aren't enough hardcore interested to make sales worthwhile. Too bad.
jeep is junk.dude jeep was first made,after that was toyota and long time after this two was that garbage land rover.also FJ on this pic had rear locker,i think every FJ from factory get this rear electric locker,also this yota have a-track,mean if one wheel starts slip engine send more power to wheel what is dosnt slip..
hey pail trash people (called white people) dont pee in your underware , Before 1945 jeeps ware the only ones , ware no competition, after 1945 the japanees changed the off road , whith the king off all roads THE LAND CRUISER.-
Oh, the FJ has a selectable locker. I was gonna say he did quite well for being open. Still, he did great, I first thought he was just using brake modulation. Not something many people can do.
Both are quite capable, in some cases wheelbase can dictate advantages. I Like the TK unlimited now that it is lifted,with bigger tires, but it needs more power. Sometimes the width makes me miss my TJ. Toyota makes good stuff, but I like to remove the top, and I don;t like the suicide doors on the FJ. My 91 Toyota ext cab sr5 PU was great due to light weight and 4.56 stock gearing, but too much wheelbase and IFS was a handicap. Everything is compromise.
The FJ is still one of the King's of Off road and I mean the original I am just a little miffed Toyota didn't make it a solid front axle vehicle that said it's still extremely capable a couple mods and it's equal to a modded jeep depending on terrain
in which case you really just proved there's alot you don't know..such as the h1...why is that not solid axle jeep on steroids? It has to be the ultimate off road machine? Oh wait...Jeeps have big pumpkins that get smashed on rocks..depending on the Terrain :) Ground clearance high speed handling cornering
Ya, the Jeep kicks FJs butt. But, the FJ didn't have the rear diff locked. And the front lock isn't an option. You can tell the Jeep had front and rear locked, and significantly better traction. Jeeps come outfitted from the factory with more capabilities right now than Toyotas, but reliability is important, too. And to the dork saying the FJ didn't come out until now, sorry but Land Rover and Toyota both introduced these types of vehicles before Jeep did, but not sent to the USA.
Actually the first Land Rover was built on a Jeep chassis and Jeeps have been around way before Toyota was even founded. Just a little piece of knowledge. The Fj and the Land Rover are both copy cats of the Jeep.
@botashs jeep cj was produce is 1944 but toyota land cruiser (ansestor of fj) was produce in 1950 with the fj40 coming out in 1960. land rover didnt come out until 1948. jeep was the 1st to come out with a offroader, then landrover, last was toyota with the fj
@botashs I'm not gonna argue which vehicle is better, my question is what do you mean by " sorry but Land Rover and Toyota both introduced these types of vehicles before Jeep did, but not sent to the USA" ?
if you mean that Toyota an Land Rover came out with 4x4 vehicles before jeep you are mistaken the first Jeep came out in 1941, first Land Rover 1948, first Land cruiser (fj) came out in 1951. basically Jeeps invented 4x4 and passed it on to the Brits then to the Japanese.
okay d1gps15... either you are actually mentally handicap or your some Japanese guy. either way for some reason you didn't understand what I just said. The first jeeps were built 67 years ago and helped defeat nazi germany and you stupid japs. Where was your precious FJ then? I'll tell you it wasn't even created yet. In fact your stupid FJ wouldnt come out till some 67 years later.
i like jeeps and all but, you obviously dont wheel. the first FJ was built in 1951, they have been in produciton ever since. the FJ20 was first, then the FJ40, 50 and 60 etc... the FJ cruiser bears the chassis designation FJ120, in other places its got a different body and is sold as the Land Cruiser Parado.
please leave racist comments like "Japs" out of the discussion, its stupid and immature.
The FJ's came out afterward, but not 67 years later. The first FJ- the 20, was actually a "copy" of the Willys Jeep to fill an order of troops stationed in Japan. Every other variant of the FJ was designed and built AFTER it's Jeep counterpart.
jeeps helped defeat nazi germany....wow you are fucking stupid that is the dumbest thing ive ever heard a readkneck say online ....first of all those cars were constantly breaking down and getting stuck and 67 years later theyre still doing the same thing..you just cant afford a 34000 dollar car so you have to settle with a half assed ride...and your not 39 your probably 19..makingairsoft guns yeah youve got a life

First of all the jeep is NOT stock, the FJ is. Secondly comparing an Wrangler to the FJ is like comparing a Tahoe with a 4Runner. They're not in the same size class. The FJ is much larger and heavier.
Nice vid! Interesting "Matrix" music to say the least. Thanks for showing everyone how capable the FJ in stock form can do. With some judicious driving, most obstacles can be tackle with the FJ. However, the Wrangler can easily do it with much less effort. The newer JK Rubicon takes even less effort.
Obviously you are not familiar with Jeeps built from 1940 to 1987.. They had circle headlights. And as far as copying body style... The jeep has retained it's same basic shape since the first jeeps bult some 67 years ago. So you can take that "the jeep copied the FJ style" (FJ=Fake Jeep) and shove it up your gay ass.
@d1gps15 Are you kidding me dude? Have you seen the jeeps that were helpin america kick the nazis asses? Last time i checked 1945 was before the 80's..... so who copied who?
@JeepMan19007 = They are Copy..is american copy... Japanese Toyota FJ 1945.. Also SSC they Copy from Lamborghini Diablo SV too....Check it out pictures Toyota FJ Long Times ago..... they are copy.. for sure... Japanese SUV design.... I'm Not Kidding You.. =.=...... Jap Better kick american.. naizs better.. they could Beat You.. You know Nazis is respect American.. Don't you know there lots of Japanese people still around in American.. is still lliving around aemrican... Cool Than Jeep...
@d1gps15 actually the jeep was created in 1941 i mistyped it the first time... i cant really understand what youre trying to say. did you just say nazis and japan are better than america? you are really a stupid fuck. i know there are japanese people in america? what are you getting at? I'll stick with my jeep. Jeeps are better. I'd be too afraid if i drove a toyota.....you know, with the gas pedals stickin and what not.....
@JeepMan19007 I'm not stupid... so.. You better Watching out.. I'm Not Japanese.. There Whole Japanese around, so many not just nazis... I'm Chinese.. I respect Japan, cuz I like Japanese and Japan cars, but they hate Chinese.. but doesn't mater for me, You are Stupid.. Suck American cars.. -__- I Say They are Copy it's American Copy cars designing.. Copy Lamborghini SV, the SSC.. and I say Yes they are Copy Toyota FJ long times ago Old one....
@SecularTechnology so what.. I'm really Rude to ppl talk english because in Here are Unknown person... alots of ppl speak bad english around here so.. Toyota Harrier (RX300) from Lexus beat > Dodge Caliber Srt4.. form your pictures Back Ground..
@SecularTechnology so.. Japan is first make of that idea design FJ.. long times ago.. that Army make of that FJ long times ago first and than American.. And Mitsubishi also same are Armies cars long times ago.. it's not make brand of cars.. Mitsubishi name, it's that of person.. for now it's just a brand names Mitsubishi, Mitsubishi is Cool cars..
Yeah? Looks like the FJ went all the same places the Jeep went. Re: 3:27, the locker wasn't engaged, so what. Did you watch a few seconds later and see that it made it over? I used to have a Jeep so I'm not bashing, but if that Wrangler was riding on its stock suspension/tires, it wouldn't be as capable. And yes Jeep has heritage but Toyota's off road heritage can't be ignored either... even if this new FJ isn't as capable in some respects as the original.
Have you read the previous posts?? The FJ didn't have the locker engaged!! So what? They were having fun off-roading. And since when did off-roading become like figure skating and you get points for looking good while going over an obstacle?
much respect older yotas. Im not feeling the new toyota products! O what a feeling NOT. Jeep is owning the offroad roll. Toyota could have made this fJ alot nicer maybe copy the jeep? Make it soft top,solid front axle,light weight but beefy,high power 4cyl thats it. No instead they fricked the FJ up.
LOL at the moron below trying to say that nice Jeep in this video is on stock tires, wheels and suspension. What a tard. Anyone can clearly see it's all option parts and hop ups.
Your ignorant comments are giving good Jeep owners bad names.
this video shows how superior the Wrangler is to the FJ Cruiser. The FJ Cruiser has absoutly no articulation...its sad really, it is promoted to be a great off road vehicle, but is clearly meant for on road.
Did you compare the tires of both cars??? Obviously it seems like you didn't!!! Why do I say this?? Watch the video again... As DsDigital said, the FJ is stock, and the other is not jeeper creeper!!!
Well you clearly didnt read my post. I said that the FJC has no articulation, I didnt say that the wrangler was better. The tries have nothing to do with the articulation. I think if toyota wanted to make a truely great off road vehicle they would have given it a good amount of flex like the STOCK wranglers have.
I know tires doesn't have to do anything with the articulation... But the thing is that if a car is heavily modified, can go off-road with no problems, as this jeep did... It's always going to be difficult for a stock car to go off-road, if this at least isn't on OFF-ROAD WHEELS!!! That's all I have to say!!!
Yeah, I've seen many jeeps doing some serious passes in which you need articulation as a requirement! Unfortunately this wasn't a stock jeep, so i could probe what u tell me! But the point is that any toyota, has no much articulation than a jeep, and that's for sure... Also i've seen a stock toyota, passing through some breaches with only off road wheels where the jeeps couldn't! My conclusion: Pilot plays a very important role, but even the best pilot with a stock car can look like a rookie!
First of all, I know that all terrain tires are put in almost every brand new jeep from 2006... Second, that's a wrangler (not brand new) with aftermarket performance parts (INCLUDING SUSPENSION AND TIRES)... Third, You are the one who has to make the homework, 'cause the toyota was not as modified as the the Jeep, and however it was well driven... It all comes down to the pilot, so shut the fuck up 'cause nobody invited you to this conversation!!!
Well guess what im a dick as a matter of fact that's my name, well its Richard but u get the point... i also have a big dick...bigger then you and so ill invite my dick ass into what fucking conversation i want. anyways with that aside.. this is the deal the jeep has a 2 inch spacer kit on it for a better look and the stock all terrain tires and the Toyota is stock and yes it defiantly comes down to the driver but jeeps are better. THEY ARE BUILT TO GO OFF-ROAD. Toyoda's...well not so much.
Yeah, yeah!!! Whatever you say man... I've seen much more Jeeps with damages after going off-road than toyotas!!! If you're american, also you should know that toyota was the sales leader in the U.S. by the past three years... It's not what I say, it's what I've read so chill out, and stop talking 'bout "dicks", 'cause that's for gays...
well theres way more people who off road in jeeps than toyotas. atleast in america where it matters thats true. that fj is pretty modified. alot of shit on the outside of the wrangler but not too much else. and toyota can eat a dick. my liberty would shit on any fj.
Look man, The Liberty has no more horsepower than a FJ Cruiser... Second the FJ in this vid was nothing at all modified... And third, in Venezuela, people who go OFF-ROAD usually preffer TOYOTA... Simple as this, nobody that can afford a TOYOTA, would buy a JEEP instead and that's for sure!!! Both are good cars but here in my country, in a matter of OFF-ROADING, TOYOTA, LAND ROVERS AND JEEPS (in the third position) are the cars that off-roaders preffer!! Greetings from Venezuela!!
I have to agree with jamico on the fact the libby doesnt have much more HP than the FJ. The Libby makes APX 210HP and the FJ makes 239. Its not about power.. or your vehicle.. its about skill.
The only reason Toyota sells the way the do is because of their hybrids. Jeeps are damaged more because they are you used. Ill drive a Yota to work so I can dump money in to my trail rig.
I owned a 2006 Jeep wrangler unltd rubicon and wasn't at all impressed with stock flex so I had lift put on. I can't remember exact but i think it was 3.5 or 4 inch Rubicon...does superflex sound familiar? maybe that's it...point being that if you are a serious off-roader, then how it runs stock really isn't that important because modifications are neccessary... But for stuff like this, the FJ is more than qualified. Tread lightly...we only have one playground.
This video is awesome! I personally have a TRD FJ and love it! I also have respect for the JEEPS too, but for that FJ to do that on stock tires, was very impressive.
Was planning on buying an FJ *Wife is pregnant, I don't want to get rid of my Jeep, but toyota is way more reliable* Anyway, Who the hell is driving the yellow FJ??? Seriously, does the FJ have that bad of gearing that you need to mash the brake pedal going downhill? Keep that up and wait for when the tires lock up, your back end swings over, and you go tumbling sideways down the decline. Then when climbing, all I saw was punching the gas. Right foot it all the way. Poor FJ. use those gears!
Dude I'm SOOO jealous I hate you guys. I'd give anything to have either of those rigs. It's mind-boggling how capable those FJC's are even with the mediocre stock tires. That looks like an awesome trail. Very good camera work by the way, top notch!
If you know about cameras' angle distortion you can tell how steep it really is, especially when it LOOKS extremely steep on the camera. I've been up near vertical stuff but I'm not sure my Cherokee would make it up that last hill. I wish I still had it I'd love to give it a shot. Oh well that's what I get for being a moron and driving into a mud pit that pretty much swallowed it whole and ruined the engine of my 7 grand project Jeep! Man I miss it so much!
Looks like fun. I'm considering going to Coal Creek this year. I really like the FJ. Honestly, I've never really been a big import fan, but those get my respect.
That was a well made vid. Those are 2 great vehicals. I like my FJ now. It takes me places where I know I'm gonna get back out. Keep the good footage coming.
The FJ has both Traction Control and a Rear Locker. He likes to try without assistance - then turn them on if he needs them - for more of a challenge. He also likes to ride on as few wheels as possible :-) By the way, the FJ beat my Jeep several times before I got my lockers - it's an amazing vehicle!
amazing video you have here!!! both the FJ and Jeep are amazing offroading machines!! also what are the tires that are on the jeep? they look pretty nice. i have the tires that are on the FJ

JeepMan19007 2 years ago
i like jeeps and all but, you obviously dont wheel. the first FJ was built in 1951, they have been in produciton ever since. the FJ20 was first, then the FJ40, 50 and 60 etc... the FJ cruiser bears the chassis designation FJ120, in other places its got a different body and is sold as the Land Cruiser Parado.
please leave racist comments like "Japs" out of the discussion, its stupid and immature.

The FJ's came out afterward, but not 67 years later. The first FJ- the 20, was actually a "copy" of the Willys Jeep to fill an order of troops stationed in Japan. Every other variant of the FJ was designed and built AFTER it's Jeep counterpart.

jeeps helped defeat nazi germany....wow you are fucking stupid that is the dumbest thing ive ever heard a readkneck say online ....first of all those cars were constantly breaking down and getting stuck and 67 years later theyre still doing the same thing..you just cant afford a 34000 dollar car so you have to settle with a half assed ride...and your not 39 your probably 19..makingairsoft guns yeah youve got a life

Jeeps had a big hand in the war effort, that is unquestionable. The H1 was the next vehicle the world copied. Over and over again.
Toyota makes good cars, but they're all pretty lame to me. I would only take a Lexus IS F, never an FJ though. Just my opinion.
mtb416 2 years ago
First of all the jeep is NOT stock, the FJ is. Secondly comparing an Wrangler to the FJ is like comparing a Tahoe with a 4Runner. They're not in the same size class. The FJ is much larger and heavier.

Nice vid! Interesting "Matrix" music to say the least. Thanks for showing everyone how capable the FJ in stock form can do. With some judicious driving, most obstacles can be tackle with the FJ. However, the Wrangler can easily do it with much less effort. The newer JK Rubicon takes even less effort.

for Real, Jeep's Copy FJ Since in 80's long times ago, same like that shape in front circle lights and with a style body..
d1gps15 2 years ago 2
Obviously you are not familiar with Jeeps built from 1940 to 1987.. They had circle headlights. And as far as copying body style... The jeep has retained it's same basic shape since the first jeeps bult some 67 years ago. So you can take that "the jeep copied the FJ style" (FJ=Fake Jeep) and shove it up your gay ass.

The Jap's built the FJ back in 1960, Jeeps were built back in 1941.
Ford was the manufacturer that started the 4x4 market back in 1930's
Jap's don't get credit for shit.

@SecularTechnology so.. Japan is first make of that idea design FJ.. long times ago.. that Army make of that FJ long times ago first and than American.. And Mitsubishi also same are Armies cars long times ago.. it's not make brand of cars.. Mitsubishi name, it's that of person.. for now it's just a brand names Mitsubishi, Mitsubishi is Cool cars..
d1gps15 1 year ago
@d1gps15
Get your facts straight. You have your information mixed up.
The Toyota FJ was based of the 1951 Jeep BJ.
Mitsubishi can make cars for the Japanese army, but when it comes to 4x4 off road military capabilities, Americans were first.

Fj have no match at Jeep, Check out 3:27.... and by da way Jeep was designed for offroad since 1941 and is da oldest offroad vehicle...
ryanpforto 2 years ago
Yeah? Looks like the FJ went all the same places the Jeep went. Re: 3:27, the locker wasn't engaged, so what. Did you watch a few seconds later and see that it made it over? I used to have a Jeep so I'm not bashing, but if that Wrangler was riding on its stock suspension/tires, it wouldn't be as capable. And yes Jeep has heritage but Toyota's off road heritage can't be ignored either... even if this new FJ isn't as capable in some respects as the original.

considering the fj isnt designed for this kind of off roading, cut it some slack. Of course its no wrangler.

Did you compare the tires of both cars??? Obviously it seems like you didn't!!! Why do I say this?? Watch the video again... As DsDigital said, the FJ is stock, and the other is not jeeper creeper!!!
Jaimico4ever 3 years ago
Well you clearly didnt read my post. I said that the FJC has no articulation, I didnt say that the wrangler was better. The tries have nothing to do with the articulation. I think if toyota wanted to make a truely great off road vehicle they would have given it a good amount of flex like the STOCK wranglers have.
Doubledee90 3 years ago
I know tires doesn't have to do anything with the articulation... But the thing is that if a car is heavily modified, can go off-road with no problems, as this jeep did... It's always going to be difficult for a stock car to go off-road, if this at least isn't on OFF-ROAD WHEELS!!! That's all I have to say!!!
Jaimico4ever 3 years ago
this is true, but even jeeps stock have great articulation...well Wranglers at least
Doubledee90 3 years ago
Yeah, I've seen many jeeps doing some serious passes in which you need articulation as a requirement! Unfortunately this wasn't a stock jeep, so i could probe what u tell me! But the point is that any toyota, has no much articulation than a jeep, and that's for sure... Also i've seen a stock toyota, passing through some breaches with only off road wheels where the jeeps couldn't! My conclusion: Pilot plays a very important role, but even the best pilot with a stock car can look like a rookie!
Jaimico4ever 3 years ago
this is true...it all comes down to the driver.
Doubledee90 3 years ago
FYI the tires on the jeep are the tires Jeep puts on the STOCK 08', 09' Rubicons. they're BFGoodrich, all terrain tires. Do your homework!!!
RJCJENGO92 3 years ago
First of all, I know that all terrain tires are put in almost every brand new jeep from 2006... Second, that's a wrangler (not brand new) with aftermarket performance parts (INCLUDING SUSPENSION AND TIRES)... Third, You are the one who has to make the homework, 'cause the toyota was not as modified as the the Jeep, and however it was well driven... It all comes down to the pilot, so shut the fuck up 'cause nobody invited you to this conversation!!!
Jaimico4ever 3 years ago
Well guess what im a dick as a matter of fact that's my name, well its Richard but u get the point... i also have a big dick...bigger then you and so ill invite my dick ass into what fucking conversation i want. anyways with that aside.. this is the deal the jeep has a 2 inch spacer kit on it for a better look and the stock all terrain tires and the Toyota is stock and yes it defiantly comes down to the driver but jeeps are better. THEY ARE BUILT TO GO OFF-ROAD. Toyoda's...well not so much.
RJCJENGO92 3 years ago
Yeah, yeah!!! Whatever you say man... I've seen much more Jeeps with damages after going off-road than toyotas!!! If you're american, also you should know that toyota was the sales leader in the U.S. by the past three years... It's not what I say, it's what I've read so chill out, and stop talking 'bout "dicks", 'cause that's for gays...
Jaimico4ever 3 years ago
lol aight man whatever.
RJCJENGO92 3 years ago
well theres way more people who off road in jeeps than toyotas. atleast in america where it matters thats true. that fj is pretty modified. alot of shit on the outside of the wrangler but not too much else. and toyota can eat a dick. my liberty would shit on any fj.
ms5490renegade 3 years ago
Look man, The Liberty has no more horsepower than a FJ Cruiser... Second the FJ in this vid was nothing at all modified... And third, in Venezuela, people who go OFF-ROAD usually preffer TOYOTA... Simple as this, nobody that can afford a TOYOTA, would buy a JEEP instead and that's for sure!!! Both are good cars but here in my country, in a matter of OFF-ROADING, TOYOTA, LAND ROVERS AND JEEPS (in the third position) are the cars that off-roaders preffer!! Greetings from Venezuela!!
Jaimico4ever 3 years ago
I have to agree with jamico on the fact the libby doesnt have much more HP than the FJ. The Libby makes APX 210HP and the FJ makes 239. Its not about power.. or your vehicle.. its about skill.

I owned a 2006 Jeep wrangler unltd rubicon and wasn't at all impressed with stock flex so I had lift put on. I can't remember exact but i think it was 3.5 or 4 inch Rubicon...does superflex sound familiar? maybe that's it...point being that if you are a serious off-roader, then how it runs stock really isn't that important because modifications are neccessary... But for stuff like this, the FJ is more than qualified. Tread lightly...we only have one playground.

Was planning on buying an FJ *Wife is pregnant, I don't want to get rid of my Jeep, but toyota is way more reliable* Anyway, Who the hell is driving the yellow FJ??? Seriously, does the FJ have that bad of gearing that you need to mash the brake pedal going downhill? Keep that up and wait for when the tires lock up, your back end swings over, and you go tumbling sideways down the decline. Then when climbing, all I saw was punching the gas. Right foot it all the way. Poor FJ. use those gears!

If you know about cameras' angle distortion you can tell how steep it really is, especially when it LOOKS extremely steep on the camera. I've been up near vertical stuff but I'm not sure my Cherokee would make it up that last hill. I wish I still had it I'd love to give it a shot. Oh well that's what I get for being a moron and driving into a mud pit that pretty much swallowed it whole and ruined the engine of my 7 grand project Jeep! Man I miss it so much!

The FJ has both Traction Control and a Rear Locker. He likes to try without assistance - then turn them on if he needs them - for more of a challenge. He also likes to ride on as few wheels as possible :-) By the way, the FJ beat my Jeep several times before I got my lockers - it's an amazing vehicle!
