  1. Frankly @Alain Canivet-Abikhalil, from the time we met on a master class with Richard & Pierre and the way you have progressed- awesome my dear. Well done
  2. 2014 and further models of FJ come with a dual tank ( monstrous) - especially useful if you are a kind of person who wants to do full day drives in Abu Dhabi - Wagan/Bu Tais/ Um al osh or Liwa. Else you will have to do with extra jerry cans for the fuel, not a big difference but you have to consider all aspects with the intention you are buying it for off road and on road.
  3. Get a fixed flag mount which probably costs the same more sturdier than the suction cup which tends to come off while off roading due to the multiple jerks and especially the with the super heavy AOR flag.
  4. You are brushing a very debated issue across platforms.🤣 Marginal difference i suppose . reliability wise FJ is definitely better.
  5. Finding a unabused one with the diff lock (Xterra off road version) is almost impossible now as the production stopped in 2015 - which came with the 4.0 V6 engines . The newer xterra with 2.5 L 4 cylinder , is a bit underpowered
  6. @Abdul Rafay-S congratulations, well done Happy to see the father -son duo enjoying the drives together
  7. I feel getting a unabused FJ in the year range you are looking for will be a tough task compared to a Prado in the same year models. Prados are more likely to be driven on road or to malls than the FJs. This in turn means the 4by4 system is virtually untouched which u can use on sand We have had members who have made it to extreme drive levels with a prado so you should be fine with some min mods as Fred suggested. Atrac is not available on prado , but the rest including a diff lock which is most important is available on the Prado ( 4.0 L versions )
  8. Thanks for the update (with envy) 🤣, @Hisham Masaad informed me the same. See you soon
