Thanks everyone for your support! If you're seeing this video pop up again in your feed, it's because the first uploaded version had a weird audio issue where sound only came out of one speaker. Went back and fixed it!
I need 2014. Fj.
Great video. Sad day for the FJ family. I had hoped the other places would still keep up demand. Cheers to a pretty good run my beloved FJ. Thanks for the channel! Take Care and good luck finishing school!
Always enjoy your videos.. With that being said, my favorite has always been the 6 speed manual on this platform. Because of the Full Time 4WD. Being manual, is the icing on the cake.
I ordered my FJ TRD in 2006. She has only 36k original miles & has always slept in the garage. She is such a unique vehicle, nothing else like it.
Why is it a she? FJ are he mate.
Another great video. It’s not about quantity, but all quality! 💪💪💪
The reason for the FJ's demise is simple: Toyota's jumping into "global climate warming change" marketing with both feet, and if there ever is another FJ, it'll be a hybrid or pure electric. (edit: they refuse to sell a 16-20 mpg small SUV because of the extremely fashionable CO2 delusion, which will take decades to pass).
This means that current 4-liter FJs, especially the 6 speeds with the Torsen center diff and full-time 4WD, are gonna spike like mad. Maybe not Land Cruiser Defender mad, but you get the idea.
Toyota is one of the few major automakers that has not fully bought into the EV climate change bunk. They have their hands in all variants of power units for automobiles. Look out for hydrogen burning ICE's in the near future.
7:45 really felt sad when I saw this final video for the FJ Cruiser.
I love my “Tonka toy” FJ. But, its deffect is mainly its blind spot and premium gas requirement with low mileage per galon
Imagine if it had Hilux Turbo Diesel with 35mpg.
Sold my 07 6 speed w 321000 miles 2 months ago..Great truck! Next 1 will be automatic ..Everything I own seems to be manual lol..Driving the 6 speed was fun but I think automatic is where it will be next time! Thanks again for all your videos for the info I didnt know on my truck and super helpful for my CZcams videos!
Heck I want 6spd manual lol
i have both manual and automatic 2013 trail teams, the manual def feels like it’s geared better as far as power, but i’m getting older so i gave my son the manual
@@rickper I drove the automatic and it felt better driving ..just easier lol
I just bought mine. This is my first car and I love it to pieces. They retain their value really well and will probably will start gaining value in the near future. I honestly view it as an investment. But I will never sell this thing unless I have to. Now I just need to modify it...
I just got mine a few months ago, so happy I got it! 2010 6spd M/T. Gotta get started on modding it!
@@1013toto A manual?! you one lucky dude.
I think it's finished according to my brother in law who's a engineer at toyota so I've been told
Glad I retired from NY to settle in the Philippines to buy myself a brand new 2016 model FJ Cruiser. They just stopped selling these few months back and now a few of the last models for a premium.
It cannot compete with the Tacoma or 4runner in sale.
I got mine in December - hurrah!
Congrats! is it a brand new 2023 model?
@@FJX2000_Productions Yes! Living in the UAE 🇦🇪
What I would give to import that 2023 FJ Cruiser Final Edition...Don't want a next-gen turbocharged hybrid like the Tacoma...
I want to hear more about dental school
What do you want to hear about it? Haha we mess with a lot of people’s teeth that’s for sure!
I still keep my 2008 fj，Everything Perfect !❤
I can tell you go places .. have a great day
Thanks! I've been on many adventures and seen some cool places! I'm very blessed!
Love my 2014. I’m 70 and can say it’s my fav vehicle along with my 93 Land Cruiser. Can’t decide if I should change tranny fluid since I have 80, 000 miles.
I would if you're using it for towing or doing other demanding things on your transmission. Never a bad idea to do a flush. I just opened the drain and whatever amount came out is what I added back in with new ATF.
@@FJX2000_Productions same here. Just a drain and fill which is probably better than nothing but it’s only a portion you change out. I think I’ll go with flush.
Great now I have to get a jeep
I know this will happen, I was planning to buy a bnew unit last 2015 but slided in 2021 and was 3KUSD more expensive (here in the Philippines) due to its growing demand. But no regrets... I got an icon for keeps #solidfjfan #retirementcar
It will be back in 2025 as a EV.
We can dream!
Basically soccer moms killed the FJ because they wanted little cute crossovers...
Good point haha!
🙂👍
Probably the fine engineering was too successful, no after sales issues to charge for… less profitability over time
