These FJ's were all over in Australia both times we were there. The tourist company's like to use them for adventure tours, like SCUBA, off roading, Wish I could of brought one back home.
Wonder if they kept the trooper style rear seating, e.g. facing each other.
Kind of funny they took one old Toyota and mounted it on the frame of another "old" Toyota. They should have waited until the new GX's came out.

You're thinking of an FJ45 Troopy, which is styled the same as the FJ40 with an elongated wheelbase and tub. This is specifically the 45LV, which is far more rare and unique. Toyota only built them for 4-5 years.

Money is yet again proven to not buy taste

You'd be hard pressed to squeeze more douche into a build

Made me laugh when they said LV stands for “long vehicle”

So many cool details and so many tacky ugly as F*%#k details. Someone w some taste should have worked w Kyle vs a Jeep wannabe designer. Sad.
