What a beautiful machine!!!! Absolutely love how this thing looks. Being a toyota guy for life, Mike has the best taste in rigs. His tacoma, 80 series land cruiser, and this FJ60 are all perfectly beautiful. The 80 is still my favorite land cruiser but can’t go wrong with any of his rigs. The wheels and tire choices look amazing on all his rigs.

Not saying the original 2F isn’t great but it doesn’t pack that power plus the 4 speed just doesn’t cut it when you load it up with bumpers,rack with tent etc....love your 80 series,beautiful color and I love the white on the 60.

@@LastLineOfDefense Im sure you already know but if not one thing with sealed beam replacement leds is since they don't put out any heat and are sunk into the grill that makes them extremely prone to icing over and getting obstructed by snow, living in the Rockies that can get real sketchy real quick when you are pulling over every 10-20 minutes on a mountain road to clean the lights just so you can see (after I experienced that I went back to the crappy stock halogens). I completely understand if you have sponsor obligations to KC but I wouldn't get rid of those lights just in case. a cool video might be comparing the truck-lites (assuming they aren't fakes) to KCs headlights (bonus points if you drive through a snowstorm with one light in each slot) jw speaker and truck-lite are the only heated ones I know of

You can never have too many overlanding rigs! Toyotas rock! I had a 60 series (1984 BJ60, diesel Canadian spec, 4 cyl 5 speed and incredibly gutless). I liked the 60 series best, nice blend of retro/safari looking rig, then the 80 series grew on me (I like the brown you painted it, though I'd have gone more of a smokey brown, maybe satin finish). Maybe one day I'll get an 80 series. Though hard to justify, my 5.7 V8 Tundra CrewMax Off-Road rocks, got a Diamondback tonneau cover for it too, after seeing yours on your Taco.
