Various thoughts after a weekend in part spent off-road (in my FJ):
Every time I drive my Heritage Blue FJ I think I should get a Heritage Blue Land Cruiser. People complement the color all the time, one said he'd never seen it on an FJ before (only the final US year special edition had it). Then I drive past a Trail Dust Land Cruiser (off road no less) and think I should get that instead. (Pic from the dash cam.)
It's really nice having E load tires on a bad road with lots of pointed rocks and not having to worry about it.
Related, my FJ with E load Duratracs averaged around 18.5 mpg on this trip. It will annoy me if I get a Land Cruiser and it does worse than that while also having a 1 gallon smaller gas tank.
Bronco Raptors are too wide to be on most off-road trails. Or maybe just any roads.
