I own the 2012 TTSE in radiant red; purchased in 2022 with 130k but runs like butter with little to no rust on the rear differential. I’m building it out to overland and absolutely love my FJ!
I’ve had mine for a year and I’ve gotten four chips in my windshield and I don’t drive like that either. I guess it’s just dirty roads from where I live.
I ordered mine in 2006, received it in 2007. Love my 2007 TRD FJ solid black. She sleeps in the garage, taken great care of her. Only 36k original miles. Everything is the same as the day I bought her. She has the lights on top. Every time I get in, she makes me smile. For the right price I would consider selling her.
I have a 07 fj, unfortunately a drunk driver hit me a few months ago, BUT I decided to bite the bullet and fix her up, when inspecting her, it tounds out there was no frame or radiator damage!
Nice effort! I picked up a 2012 FJB Edition FJ last November with 169,500 miles on it. It has the roof air dam with the lights and a set of lights on the bumper with “FJ” covers. It’s Cavalry Blue. It has the 17” stock rims on it. I put Toyo AT3’s on it 3 months ago. I put front brakes and rotors on it. I had Toyota reverse flush the transmission. I had to put a new rear gate locking mechanism in it. I had the oil changed. No leaks. Gets 16-19 mpg. It’s my 48 mile round trip daily driver. I gave $19,999 for it. I absolutely love it! 😊
I have the 2014 Trail Teams Ultimate Edition in Heritage Blue. I have loved it for more than 9 years. I bought the thing brand new in 2014 for less than $40,000.00. It’s crazy to see how much people will pay for them now. I just bought a brand-new truck, so I’m doing research right now to see what a reasonable asking price would be for mine. …I may be selling. - 225,000 miles. - Runs great! - One incident where a deer didn’t yield to me - resulting in a little body work. - A couple small door dings. - I had the grill painted black. …I wasn’t a fan of the white. - I had a tough looking grill guard put on. Basically, I would say it is in GOOD to VERY GOOD condition. …With all those miles, I can’t say EXCELLENT. 😊 Given that it’s the “Trail Teams Ultimate Edition”, I’m thinking I could potentially ask upper 20s to lower 30s. …But still researching. If anyone has any feedback, I welcome your input.
@@rogerbussiii I do. But I haven't done any prep work to put it up for sale. Also, I need to determine how much is reasonable to ask for it. I do have 95% of the receipts/invoices supporting maintenance/repairs. (...I suggest that I probably have "all" of the receipts/invoices, but I can't guarantee. 🙂)
@@rogerbussiii I have to study. I'm not sure what my asking price should be. It does have a lot of miles, but I have maintained it well. Thanks for the offer. I will hurry and do my research.
@@duckydave3481 it has milage but if you've done the tranny fluid and coolant at regular intervals it's in good shape... coolant becomes acidic and eats at gaskets.. other than that they'll last. Of course the oil is paramount.. and the knock sensor gives out if you use regular gas.. with premium your golden. Lemme know what u find
I drive mine a lot on highways and, for years, have not had to change my front windshield. I do agree with you about the black on black. I like my white top.
“Mad rich” lol love it. I’ve seen more of the “rare” dark cherry pearls around here in VA than the blues and purples honestly. Haven’t seen many red. I like the solid army green and the tan, but that grey is just sick!!! Of course I love the all black. My 2021 4Runner TRD ORP w/XP Predator package is midnight black metallic!!!
Damn I just missed out on the dark red in a manual.... I was gonna try to get it at a dealer in my town. I was stupid and waited too long! It only had 111,000 miles!!
Nice video, thanks! I have solid Army Green, 2010 (no white top) I can't really find any info on it. Possible due to the typhoon in Japan at the time, some were shipped early without the top paint being completed.
I have a 2007 Black Cherry Pearl that is what I thought the color was called its auto 4x4 loaded up ,its still nice looking. at 142,000 miles. The color when I bought it was pretty rare there was only one other one in the state of Texas according to the Toyota web site that would let you see where FJ were at and price back then. Been kept in the garage all these years drives like a new Toyota . Might sell if someone made the right offer .
I bought the 2007 model early in April, 2006. I absolutely love, love, love, this vehicle. Unfortunately, I've had to replace the windshield multiple times. I currently have more than 220,000 miles on it and it feels as if it's just getting started. 😂. I love this vehicle!!
I own the 2007 6 speed manual. With 320,000 still runs like the day I bought it.. put a new clutch in at 200.000. A few alternator's. But that's all. Best truck I ever owned
Bought my 2007 in Red with manual transmission with 79k for 16K$, added TRD wheels with bf goodrich rubber and TRD exhaust and baja dynamics ditch lights. I told myself that i would only put a couple of thousand miles a year on it, it's been 7 years and 50k miles. I can't help myself, it's so much fun to drive almost an addiction, thank goodness for high gas precises or I would put more miles on
Hit a curb with my rear wheel in the passenger side, normal turning speed and i dont see any visible damages, should i be worried or have it checked? Thank you
@@hakosan86 wow! You just spoke tagalog lol. Yes, Few units of the final edition is now on sale in the PH. And they totally removed the FJ cruiser model in the official website of Toyota Motors PH.
@@hakosan86 yes.. love it! i did some undercoating and change all fluids including coolants and oil from differentials.. and replace all filters including cabin filters.l for worry free future 🤣
in this case the automatic tranny is better than the manual just because the auto tranny is the best auto ever build in other vehicles is better manual but not in the fj case
Just because its Black blend in with a 4runner..??? That's ridiculous, they're both Toyotas but both have distinct enough differences to be considered 2 totally different Animals... IMO..

Had mine for 10 years. Still on original windshield. Don't drive like an a** and follow too close. Never had any issues myself.
Same here and that's what i say too, don't ride people's tails and you shouldn't have a problem with cracks
I’ve had mine for a year and I’ve gotten four chips in my windshield and I don’t drive like that either. I guess it’s just dirty roads from where I live.
You must not go on trails
yeah exactly the problem is that most people drive like assholes

The lava orange seems super rare. But I have lots of love for my 2010 TT Sandstorm without the white roof.

Fj cruiser 2023 owner here is last production in GCC 😊
Super jelly
No mention of the bulging and cracking inner fenders on early models?
I have 2 trail teams and never broke the windows. 4years now and no rust and live up state NY. 😅

Cement gray TT stick shift … paired with the 08 fog lights on the front bumper …. Luv this car
Missed the ultimate edition heritage blue. I have one and it’s the best
Have an 07 model, love it and never changed the windshield, runs great!
Damn I just missed out on the dark red in a manual.... I was gonna try to get it at a dealer in my town. I was stupid and waited too long! It only had 111,000 miles!!
Damn! That’s the rarest of the rare! Hopefully another one will pop up! Did you buy a different one?
Have a 2010 Trail Teams with the TRD wheels. Just found an OEM Air Dam for $100. Score.
I really think the 2 best looking versions are the white and green trail teams editions in that order! Just beautiful to me!
What years?
Mine 08 with 206,500 on her what a freaking tank took her to Baja Mexico and back to Utah with no issues besides a couple of rock chips
I have the Army Green with a white top 2014 and it's stunning. Been told this by lots of lookers that catch Me in a parking lot or around town.
Have the same and I like all the colors but AG is the best.
Nice video, thanks!

Wow you stole that thing, when did you get it?
This video is tight
My 2007 FJ has had an issue with wiper switches burning out.,I don't think 3 wiper blades was needed on this vehicle BIG load on the switch.
I love my 2012 in yellow.
5:39 Black Cherry Pearl gang
Great video
Thanks you!

No you most likely fine it’s meant to do that. Its an off roading vehicle.

Good review on cars, but bad taste on colour...
