So I bought the 2014 Army Green. Funny enough it’s very similar to the color of my almamater. Hmmm any how. I’m stoked.

Love the Toyota community! Thanks everyone.

Thanks so much. Yeah I read on the fj Cruiser forum website that the other TTE were pretty much like the rest, but that the TTUE was a beast unto itself. I am SO close to pulling the trigger on it, but I do not want a one off vehicle with special parts. Your FJ looks amazing. I LOVE the Cement...

Nice to meet you all, I don’t post much, but I lurk quite a bit. I live in Seattle and I’m from Virginia. I am currently looking at FJs. I’ve owned Land Cruiser 80s (actually just sold my 93), but have owned mostly Land Rovers over the years. I currently daily drive a 1963 109, but I’m over...

Any experience with importing a JDM car to the US from Canada with a British Columbia Assigned VIN? Is it possible?

I know this thread is OLD, but it was the only thing i could find online that mentioned an BC Assigned VIN and a Cruiser in the US. Im hoping Cruiserdan can shed some light on this. Did you have issues importing with a BC Assigned VIN? I know the JDM cruisers have the short VIN and that BC will...

Sorry I meant to post this in my last reply... Is $2k too much for a cruiser that needs a radiator replaced, has some dents, and an unknown issue with the transmission?

Hey John: He is asking $2k... Apparently it runs, but he said the radiator leaks really bad. So pretty much if I get it, you might as well say I'm getting a non-drivable truck.

Hey everyone, thanks so much for the advice. I haven't gone to check it out yet, but I'll let you know what I find when I do. You all are rock stars!

Hello all: First let me say sorry if I am posting this in the wrong place. So I am going to look at a late 1980s vintage of the FJ62 tomorrow. It has a problem, the seller tells me that it has a hard time shifting into 3rd gear. His exact words were: "It needs a transmission fluid change...

This was literally THE BEST RESPONSE I have ever ever ever heard on any forum what so ever. Truly, thank you for this. I was beginning to wonder why I am such a huge Land Rover lover, but yet this damn truck is haunting my dreams of exactly what you sat above. Like a Siren calling me to the...

Mid: thanks for the heads up. Sounds much like a Land Rover. The brakes are great and it's been converted to front disc. Has a new gas tank ,engine rebuilt a few years ago with receipts. As for the transfer case & tranny... Im not sure what's been done there. Is there an updated version of...

Thanks for the heads up. Its a drop gate, not ambulance style.

New to the board here. Cheers! So I've found a fairly solid FJ55. Of course it has some rust, but far less than I've seen on a few others I've looked at. I've never owned a land cruiser of any kind, I've always been a Land Rover guy. But I do love the FJ55. So anyhow the rust is in my opinion...

Thanks! I'll post over there.
