i'll never bash a toyota, ever. but, my daughter's camry wasn't covered by warranty after she took it offroad either - i don't get it . . . . . . . and it's not like the boulders were much bigger than the car . . . .




....Speaking of serious frame cracking.....

I traded my 2007 FJ (kept for 10 months) for my hummer and I love the hummer! I took it off-road several times and it is a great vehicle. My down fall was the backseat space, 2 doors (plus suicide doors), and plastic like interior. My H3 has a nice ride and luxury feeling to it and off-road wise they are close. Just thought I would throw that out there since I owned both.

are you gonna post the same crap in EVERY thread about the FJ?!?!?! Maybe you should go buy one....you seem to like defending the POS a lot. And FJ owners have stated cracks in the FRAME..not the inner fender...that IS a big difference.

troll flags be waving again

pipe down mr jeep lover . . . . . . besides, now that you're part of the tuner crowd, we're almost surprised to see you here very often.

hey, mr crabby, how many more weeks 'til you get a smile on your face? 3? 4?

You seem to come off here as very anti-hummer.

Anywyas, with that out the way, the FJ's are having frame craking. If it was the body, it wouldn't have been a concern (at least to me), but it's the frame that is freaking people out. I don't think a body would cost $15,000 to fix for a simple crack (one FJ guy reported the repair costs).

I came to this forum to get an honest no bull**** opinion about H3s because I am in the market, I am also looking at FJs so I have been reading about them. I have seen the cracks on my friends FJ and they are not on the frame. Last time I checked the frame was on the bottom of the vehicle and not made out of sheetmetal. The cracks I saw wer in the crumple zones inside the engine bay/front fender wells.

I can see I will gain no value from this site. All I have read is that the H3 is "badass" and the FJ is made in Japan so it must be crap. Who made your TV?

We live in a global market, so to get a product sold it needs to be the best..........I don't care where it's made as long as it is the best!

I guessI will look somewhere else for real information about the H3.
