Same as Wasif really. They are all poser cars that are no good in the desert............. Only joking, they all do great but the tundra is too long, low and heavy. The G-class will cost you an arm and a leg if you break something and the FJ is a Fafafini Jeep!!! If this is just for the streets then go with teh G wagon, for the sand the FJ and for a construction company/ranch owner/serial killer the Tundra! :D

Agree 100% with Wasif
We drive an FJ and we love it - if you see Wasif or Neil (Bluelion) or maybe even me driving the FJ you may be amazed at what it can do in the desert!

If I could find an old G-Wagen within my buedget I would scoop that up!!! Only issue with G-Wagen is cost of ownership, otherwise IMHO that is most certainly number one of the list.

The G can haul your boat, tough it over the sharpest dunes, and be rented out for weddings... it's an amazing package, a complete off-roader, with class. It's like a Range Rover that doesn't break down...
