"We are planning to buy a 2007 Element!!! My wife and I love it. We've looked at the new Toyoto, the Hummer H3, and have considered the still-to-be-seen 4 door Jeep Wrangler Unlimited (which has potential.) We would love to buy an SC, but then I saw the specs and was shocked -- SHOCKED! I hope I'm wrong on this, but does the SC only come in 2 WD, not 4 wheel??? We live in New England and require 4 wheel, AWD. If this isnt true then we'll have to get the loaded EX. Tell me it's NOT true. Please??? Awaiting replies. New to the club. TIA."



He seemed fairly civil in the other forums...

Hitting a tree and then getting stuck in the mud. The self-ownage was strong in that one.

Where's that other vid of an FJ bouncing off a tree?

I wouldn't say he got stuck in the mud, as much as I would say that his head hitting the steering wheel (twice, did you hear the horn ) gave him a concussion and he stopped.

Got a little over-zealous on the momentum thing and started a little too early.

Wheeling an FJ is like wheeling a cammel - you might get better MPG but you still look like a tard wheeling it.

Hehe. I had the sound down and missed that.

This was FJ vs the Tree part one. Same brother, same FJ, different tree. After this $4000 trip to the body shop, the ARB was recommended in place of the stock plastic. I think the sequel is better, especially knowing a steel bumper was crunched. I'll keep you posted for part 3 (i know they'll be one) after another $4000 goes to fix the FJ.

are you kidding, the fj driver did the same thing in both videos. lead foot!

So yeah.....like that

After you got done test driving the FJ did you feel like putting a pahnis in your mouth? Oh, wait, you're a girl. Nevermind.

Do they honestly think the off-road FJ course shown above is supposed to demonstrate anything? I could probably navigate that in my Probe GT!

[wannabeH3]

I can think the only way that video would be better would be if my freakin speakers worked.

Yeah! Nice driving, bro!

Hope your brother learned the lesson ... about being more judicious on the throttle when he goes over a big bump in the mud.
