I am really digging this FJ from the States.

I really do love Those FJ's, they look mean when they are jacked with armor and big tires.

I still don't really like the look of the new FJ. It just didn'T grow on me from day one

This truck is still sick, but I prefer the tacoma expedition rigs

I really liked the concept when it first came out... more for the components they were implementing.

Warn hubs, Winch front/rear, High Clearance bumpers, Tundra rear diff, and just looked burly

If you want something like that last photo. TLC out of California makes complete rebuild FJ-40, FJ-43 and FJ-45 wagon like in the pic. Personally FJ-45 truck would be insane but I don't think I can afford one. I'll post a link to a video and some pics in a different thread.

Very Very Nice truck... That's Luke's truck... He's a Great guy. I did a run with him to Moab this spring... Actually the same trip most of those photos are from (kokopelli's trail). The outside and the list of mods is impressive for sure... But the inside is even better. SUper clean throughout. Luke put a TON of thought (and $$) into that build and it works very well. Only downfall I can think of was that he was a bit topheavy, and fuel thirsty.
