Description
I wanted to compare the 2 for quite awhile.I found this 66 at an antique store, and shortly after it was sold.the 07 is mine
thanks for viewing and any comments
I took this at a high iso to get the details to show because an dark overcast morning.the 66 FJ, the passenger sits on top of the gas tank.Toyota quit selling the FJ in the USA because they did not want to fix them to pass safety laws. I would have rather had the old style

You have a real nice sturdy ride! real cool Richard! and great capture ~ thanks for sharing :)
Your car is really cool, Richard! Great capture!
way to kool. Love it 5+
The 66 was unique in its day...and gas cost was not a factor...nice comparison..
Excellent photo.
Great capture and awesome looking vehicles, both of them look pretty cool, I'd be happy with either one:)
I like the 66. It looks like a serious off-roader. The new one I would be afraid to scratch up. I remember when the 66s were around and many people had them. Because they were fairly narrow you could take them into places were a Blazer or Bronco would not be suitable. Sig...
Both are nice rides! I didn't know the FJ had ever been sold in the US before last year, cool.
With the license plate mounted in the grille he is not worried about cooling. In this sense his logic is like pickup owners in Montana who mount the spare tire on the front to give fast warm up on frigid mornings. No need for a zipper radiator cover. A lot has happened in four wheel drive. Shift on the fly, full time FWD, silicone couplings for traction control, the old way is definitely the way to break something on road but off road was sufficient for a careful cross country who used locking hubs to avoid wear and compensate for the different ratios front rear to give balance on dirt.
Terrific concept. I agree the older one would be my preference.
Cool old car!!!
i prefer the old type aswell ,too many gadgets in the new machines .excellent comparison shots richard mick
Uuuu! Niiiiice! :D Very Shique!!! :D
excellent capture my friend, those cruisers are well built vehicles !!
A wonderful capture! You own a beautiful car!!!
Fantastic shot. great Richard.
Great comparison and a really nice ride Richard.
Cool capture. I like both of them. I like cool older (1966 is not that old :), especially of that year, since it's the year of my birth. Nice job, Richard!!

Sorry to have that to write the same thing in English to all, but are few the words that I have in English to say. Have a marvelous Wednesday.Hug and kiss in your heart.Luminous blessings.Ludy.
Oh I miss the FJ's. Toyota had discontinued the old-style FJ's in Japan. The modern FJ Cruiser is not available in Japan.
Great shot and comparison, I too would go for the 66!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great shots!
Which is which???? LOL Amazing how familar both are but you don't apprectiate how much time has gone by between models. Excellent...
Good shot!!!!!
Excellent scene
Neat shot! I'm surprised there's not more clearance on yours, though. You mmight have to be careful to avoid scraping something over Elephant Hill, I'd think, but you should go. Hehe.
