CAR WARS! America's Finest, The Jeep Wrangler vs. Japan's Bruiser, The Toyota FJ

CAR WARS! America's Finest, The Jeep Wrangler vs. Japan's Bruiser, The Toyota FJ
Now while Agent 001 is a truck guy through and through, I tend to stay away. Although I think they're cool and I love being able to cruise rough terrain without a problem, they just don't typically "do it" for me.

However, when I did get my hands on a Jeep Wrangler for the first time I have to say it was a ridiculously fun experience. More or less, it reminded me of a Corvette. Awful, Spartan interior but incredibly fun to drive.

That said, given the lineage and history behind the Wrangler I found myself asking "What was the Wrangler's competition way back when?"

Thanks to a user submitted photograph of an old-school Toyota FJ, I think it's pretty obvious. Set up with its "bash bar" this thing looks like it means business.

NOW, here's the catch. I'll let YOU decide if you want to pick a vintage version over the modern trucks. Hell, you can even pick both -- for example, you may say that the vintage FJ is better over the Willys Jeep; however, the modern Wrangler SPANKS the modern FJ.

Given that I've cleared things up, it's judgment time. Would you prefer the Jeep Wrangler or the Toyota FJ -- vintage or modern, we want to hear what YOU gotta say!

You cannot compare a modern Wrangler to a 35 year old Land Cruiser. However, pit the Wrangler against the new FJ Cruiser and lets talk.

Wow!! I was away for a few days. I asked a simple question. I guess you knew that you didn't have a decent answer so you attack.

Also, not responding is actually that, not responding. You responded. You said that you wouldn't respond to me while you are actually responding to me. Funny.

The Wrangler is far from America's Finest as the current FJ is far from a bruser.
