Why I Spent $13,000 on an ANCIENT Toyota (16 year old car)

[@hillbillyhippie597]

If 16 years is ancient then is Jon B a Dinosaur 🦖

[@jeremyhassler7887]

[@BANKROLSGALLERY]

buritto yeet this is something that a middle-class white kid gets for their 18th birthday

[@drewringlein1183]

I think u should lift it 3-4 inches, put big all-terrain tires on it. Get some steel blacked out bumpers for it and maybe put a winch on the front. Then name it the TRAILBLAZER

[@gregorymroczek545]

If it doesn't have 35s and a snorkel within a month ima be pissed

[@nicholaswingler4759]

Gregory Mroczek lol same

[@johnnycarter1966]

Stay Tuned! You won't be pissed! 😂😂😂

[@devildriverrule111]

and a big fuckin roobar.

[@arrondentinger2086]

As a car/off-road enthusiast I would never knock someone's vehicle choice, but I just can't understand paying 13K for that. It just seems like you overpayed. But that's neither here, nor there. As for modifications I would do a Flowmaster exhaust, 3-4 inch lift, wheels and tires, and a safari roof rack for carrying gear. Simple, functional build.

[@cambyrne3696]

Bonehead move by Jon b, that’s just insane to pay that much for a car that has 140,000 Miles holy shit

[@michaelbrajkovich1999]

Cam Byrne yeah it’s worth 10 max. I live in the sf Bay Area and that’s what kbb says it’s worth here, where everything costs ridiculously more than anywhere else in the country

[@TheBaconandeggs10]

There’s no price tag on a dream

[@arrondentinger2086]

Ramon Hernandez yes there is, and in this case it's $13,000... Lol

[@TheBaconandeggs10]

Arron Dentinger I’m sorry you don’t dream as hard bud

[@OregonNative1]

Lmao $13k?! Someone came up good.

[@PTdoubleOT]

came up good? hoping this is some car salesman slang and not you actually ignoring the fact he makes good money all on his own.

[@Twangtown7]

Go look at prices for 2002 Landcruisers. They hold their value. Jon actually got a decent deal believe it or not.

[@dilligaf0220]

Heh it's the Landcruiser badge tax. He coulda bought the Lexus version, which is the same vehicle, just nicer, for $3k less.

[@davontemartin5752]

Chuck Farley like my lx470 2000 😂

[@apt62]

Good condition one is around this price.

[@slimandlean]

I have a Toyota FJ Cruiser that I use for extreme touring in the woods, Everglades in FL, etc. I use it for fishing, hunting, and living in it. My advice: Lift it. Aggressive tires. Rip the back seats out. Rip out most of the interior in the back seat area and put reflective insulation in it. On the inside roof, rod holders(or gun). In the backseat area build a deck/ platform to be off the floor of the car and glue yoga mats/ foam to it. Doing this stuff gives you a comfortable sleeping vehicle that will go anywhere

[@slimandlean]

I also built a deck for the roof rack and put an easily removable/ foldable bass fishing chair with a seat belt so someone can sit on top and have a birds eye view while you drive. This is great if you are driving through large puddles or flooded areas. They can tell you how deep it is. You will also want to put the exhaust up above the windows/ roof. I’m still able to fit a kayak or canoe or small boat on the roof as well.

[@slimandlean]

Lastly, this one is just fun and optional, I installed an air horn in the rear bumper with a compressor to have an extremely loud horn (about as loud as a train). This has saved my ass a few times against bears and a moose once who were a little too curious. And it’s fun to mess with people at gas stations 😂. But if not this, carry a loud canned air horn at all times if the vehicle. Goodluck and happy adventuring :)

[@jonathancarlson8449]

Memory foam mattress?

[@rougebeaster]

Had a landcruiser and figured I’d give you some tips. Take a look at the axle seals. Check to make sure the bottom of the rims are dry after it’s sat for a bit. Look for some oil built up on the actual rim. Watch out for head gasket leaks. Open the radiator and let it get to operating temp check for bubbling in the coolant, or smoke out the exhaust. Check the cv joints to make sure their properly lubed up. And lastly watch out for frame rusting out.

[@tonyhalabi3239]

You're talking about the 80 series, this is a 100 series. No head gasket issues or axle seal issues. Just replace your heater T's and make sure your CV boots aren't torn and you're golden.

[@MORENITO.13]

I’m a bit of a car guy myself, and a dreamer of course. If it were my car I would leave the original color of the car. Also I would install the bed as you said yourself, off-road tires, mud skirts, rain deflectors on the windows, raise the suspension as high as you would like. Also, you would need a roof rack for rods and or camping gear of course if you are doing any camping vids with the goo googans, or even solo. Last but not least, make sure the wheels have no curb rash or anything at all because if you want to get them powder coated it would cost more. That is unless you go to my Dad’s wheel shop. He can pimp this thing out to the max. It’s called Crown Customs and Coatings, it is a well known car customization shop in Elk Grove. Knowing you are from Illinois, I know this might be worth a shot. He will hook you up! Get it?! I suck at jokes but anyways, you won’t be pissed. This is a reliable source for any car, and they’re totally fine with filming. Thanks, crowncustoms.net P.S. I go to Prospect High School.

[@JunoMacRC]

Take it to OUTLAW let him fix it up for you!

[@eriesniper]

[@porthos6914]

I have an 02 tacoma I got new and now have 610,000 miles on the original motor!! Going for 1 million!!

[@kevinj9315]

porthos6914 really ? Geez. You should make some videos about the truck, I’m sure it will grab a lot of attention. I got a 05 Lx470 has 140k on it now and it’s running like a champ :D

[@danielm4203]

Kevin Jose , i have a 2010 tacoma bought it with 75k miles now she has 245k only fixed the clutch & fuel pump at 210k miles Best Vehicles I Recommend to anyone any day

[@bobquattrini1787]

My 1999 Jeep Cherokee Xj has 330,000 miles and is just like new.4.0 AW4 BEAST...Better than Toyota because it doesn't need timing belt's every few years and it's beast off-road.

[@porthos6914]

They don't need a timing belt every few years typically. Just have to keep an eye on them. Hit 600,000 with a lift and bigger tires and then come back and let us know how it is doing! I loved my 98 jeep. Had 2 engines blow in my 02 jeep.

[@JaredTuck]

"jon you should put a light bar on this thing"

[@andrewbrouillette5633]

[@TurboDrivenAustin]

For everyday use, and to make it easier on yourself for trips, Loading and unloading. Don’t do a big lift just to fit 35’s. 3 inch suspension lift to give yourself some extra suspension travel for deep ruts and steep angles. You Could run a mud terrain 33 inch tire. Any wheel that doesn’t have a TON of offset. Roof rack for sure (all that googan baits gotta go somewhere!) Winch for those tough situations and you don’t have a buddy to pull you out! Snorkel for sure! Rock guard/slider kit to protect that sweet maroon paint job! Aftermarket exhaust/cold air intake. (Get that thing to breathe better!) Just a few things!! Hope this helps!

[@b00sted08]

how are you going to hook up a cold air to a snorkel. Get the snorkel forget the intake. The snorkel will not only keep your engine from sucking in water and also get fresher air in dusty conditions. Also, a 3" lift alone won't give your more suspension travel (unless you go with an extended travel coil-over). You can put 35's if you want, but then you would have to re-gear and cut/hammer pretty significantly. Don't believe people when they say you need a massive lift to fit big tires (remember, the suspension will still have to cycle up and down) A 295/70/17 is a nice compromise, you won't have to re-gear. Sliders for sure have saved my rocker panels a lot.

[@danielapap3903]

Roof rack is a definite. If you are putting a bed in the back you will need more storage space a Thule might be a good idea

[@TurboDrivenAustin]

I have never installed a snorkel before, so I had no idea I’d it was it’s own intake or if could work with cold airs. Thank you for the info! I was also just trying to take into consideration daily use (hence the 3 inch lift only sugggestion!)

[@StickEmFishing]

Jon you should put a light bar on it

[@rtmotovlogs7235]

The Point Fishing yes

[@StickEmFishing]

But in all honesty new wheels and tires and a 2 inch lift would be sick. Personality I would paint it or wrap it in like a desert tan, make it look real rugged.

[@lastpasswaterfowl5069]

I would scarp it

[@JulianW-06]

LOL

[@richardmaranon8486]

XD

[@jonesyjones2476]

Get a 6 inch lift w 33's and 20x10's. Throw a snorkel on it if you're a badass and wanna go through the water. Maybe a cold air intake which helps the motor run better plus added power. Smoked headlights/taillights/third brake light, will go smoothly with the maroon and look sick. Maybe a brush guard/ranch hand (bulkier than brush guard) and you could throw on a little 12 inch light bar on it too or go all out 41" however you want, led fog lights help out so so much tbh, and look great too. Thats all i got for now

[@fishmaneatingfish22]

As well take the running boards off to get better clearance

[@alexphillips6796]

Everyone bashing him paying $13,000 knows very little about land cruisers. As for the trunk tailgate set up, Range Rover has had that in all their models from 2004+. Oh and don’t name your car. It already has one.

[@keeslynch6480]

My dad had a 2002 or 2003 range rover and it had a tailgate so it's even earlier

[@alphonsolloyd9470]

[@risingembersgaming7740]

All Range rovers have split tailgates

[@g-matt1658]

Bigger air intake Nitto all terrain tires 6 inch lift Snorkel Roof tent American force rims

[@JamesKlyng1twofish]

Don't forget the lightbar. Haha

[@prestoncobb1]

highly agree^^^

[@prestoncobb1]

maybe not the snorkel though. i wouldn't be going anywhere near mud or water with that

[@jacksonbyrd155]

6in is too much for what he wants I would think he would rather be around the 3-4in with 33in tires. I also wouldn’t put forces on a land cruiser lol

[@philavon1358]

4" lift with 35's is absolutely perfect. And yes for the snorkel

[@trentgoorhouse5813]

Jon likes his reels like his cars, Japanese

[@trevoroswald3733]

Jon water on passenger floor is the heater core

[@JohnD.302]

Trevor Oswald heater core causes syrup smell coming out of vents. You're thinking heating. This is an ac problem like Jon said it's an evaporator

[@WillCory]

leaking heater core will cause the sweet syrup smell because of the coolant.. He has a clogged evaporator drain tube, or cracked housing

[@mattfoo1983]

Yes the drain tube is clogged. If you don't run the AC it won't happen. It's easy to fix. KZbin or Google it. Easier from the bottom

[@polyforcesnake]

It's the drain for the evaporator, every 100/105 series owner will experience it at least once haha

[@Nick_Hunter2]

You should do a 4 inch lift and some 33s, would give you a lot more ground clearance and it wouldn’t be too much.

[@Dylan-bn3nc]

Fatboi Fishing and get you to 8mpg

[@Nick_Hunter2]

It wouldn’t be that bad, that Big v8 and that smaller suv? I bet with that he could pull 15 on the highway. My last truck was a 3/4ton gasser with a smaller v8 had 6 inch loft and 37x13.5s and I pulled 12 on the highway

[@scottbenhart7852]

Those can fit 35s without a lift

[@volodymyrproskurnya5338]

Fatboi Fishing i agree with you 4 or 6 inch lift will be good. And also 33-34s will be enough to make almost all terrain vehicle)

[@brodierussell6525]

Fatboi Fishing it would be about 33 inches to much

[@drewringlein1183]

I think u should lift it 3-4 inches, put big all-terrain tires on it. Get some steel blacked out bumpers for it and maybe put a winch on the front. Then name it the TRAILBLAZER

[@K-Zoo_Angler]

The Maroon Goon! You should try to incorporate a stow away bed, maybe something that you could hid away under a fitted compartment. Definitely some charger ports for camera batteries, led lighting around the living area, etc. Definitely has some opportunity for growth! Solid choice

[@zebulonbigelow2989]

My family has a 1999 4runner. It was flipped, (salvage title) we bought it for 7K and there is a never a day that car isn’t going places. It currently is at 335,000 miles and we’ve replaced a ball joint and a starter. These cars can’t be stopped. I just bought a 99 rav4 and kayak racks and I’m so pumped. Welcome to the yota family Jon.

[@ItsWewn]

8:32 it’s probably the heater core get that shit fixed ASAP

[@odomandr]

DieselDriven I bet it is ready to mold and mildew already

[@Mjones8383]

No just a drain line off or clogged

[@Mjones8383]

If it was a heater core it would immediately leak and cause all your coolant to be in the floor and overheating would occur

[@philavon1358]

Matt Jones yep. You're right. Dealt with these fucking things enough in my life . NOT taking another one of those jobs..xD

[@MarioRodriguez-yc6uo]

[@amorton94]

On to the fun stuff, do what everyone does with their Cruiser. Moderate lift, aggressive tires, bumpers, rock sliders, roof rack, lights(not necessarily light bars), snorkel, wheels. Being that these are so popular, it won't be unique, but can be better than it is.

[@SCWW]

it's because old Toyotas are indestructable! I myself have a '98 Toyota Tacoma with roughly 250,000 miles on it. It just keeps chugging along!

[@anotherkakarot5578]

[@codkue5142]

Toyotas are more quality than US cars, sad but true

[@Dave-tw2tu]

Check your heater core line usually when that goes it dumps antifreeze in the passenger floor board happen in my blazer an u can by a union to bypass that for now until you can fix it ..but the totals last forever an can take a good beating personaly I'm a Chevy GMC fan but for over seas made the Toyota has the most cars on the Rd in last 20 years than any other makes an models.. hope the SUV turns out awesome buddy thx for sharing

[@Macerss]

Assuming it's only water (He didnt complain of a smell) the AC Drain tube likley came undone. But having a professional look at it is ideal.

[@jeremydierksii9395]

I had the same problem with my ac, water builds over time and just needs to be drained. Nothing expensive, free actually.

[@caylanmartyn9930]

Dave Johnson ur right heater cores leaking it’s actually a huge bitch to get at in these trucks you have to take the whole dash completely out. And if you don’t know how to do it your self it’s gonna be a big bill for the labor.

[@russellwittie8961]

Find the rubber garment under hood in fire wall, cut a metal clothes hanger and poke in it. I had to leave one in a old mercury cougar so it would drain.

[@azeissler1987]

The power button changes your transmission shifting points to a more aggressive driving experience. 2ND button is for snow and it doesn't go into second gear. It just changes your transmission shifting points to help you not have snappy take offs.

[@SantaCruzFilms]

that water on the passenger floor is probably a heater core

[@zachlambchops]

Or clogged drainage ducts

[@christophergalemore1644]

It is likely the AC drain which usually drains to the firewall behind the engine on the passenger side...once it is unclogged it should be fine. Much of the time the clog is right at the firewall where dirts collects from the moisture from the drain.

[@grimthenoble]

He would smell anti freeze if it was the heater core.

[@TheNarratorx15]

It’s the sunroof drain being clogged. Just get an air compressor and blow it out, same thing happened to me once.

[@noahkoningisor324]

Hey, you should put a light bar on that thing...

[@albertoloyola1685]

What's going on Jon B? I'm a big car enthusiast. Me personally I would go with some power upgrades. Nothing extravagant maybe 50-150HP. If your going to use it on long over nighter trips. I add a turbo or maybe a supercharger. Not only will you gain power but better fuel economy. Those V8s eat gas like fish breathe water. If done correctly you can improve from 5-8mpg. And you have that extra power to get out of a rut when needed. Just make sure to get a tuner that can have 2 or 3 settings at your disposal. So when you want economy or medium power or full on burn the tires of the wheel power. It's at your command. Of course the proper wheels and tires would come in to play as well. Just be sure that when you do go bigger on the wheels and tires there's turning and suspension travel clearance. Since it will be travel car. Getting some quiet tires makes a world of a diffrence. They might cost more but are worth it on long roads. Toyota has their line of oem perfomance parts. T.R.D it's what they go by. Hope you read this and give some input.

And 8.8 IRS rear ends are indestructable if you stay ahead of wheel bearings and fluid changes. The reason most explorers dont last is because a lot of ford people are dumbasses and run them into the ground. There's a 91 explorer with a 4.0l in my area with 560k miles original motor.

akrivosdiavolos73 Thing is that car is 16 years old. The price it sold for new that long ago is irrelevant. I can find these things with 100k miles under $7k all day. Spent way too much money.

[@JonBrollin]

I would be astonished if you could find a 100k cruiser for $7k with 0 accidents, clean title, and 1 owner.

[@bryceryan766]

Transform a old van or truck into something you can travel around the us with

[@JonBrollin]

That’s the goal!

[@weezerfan999]

Jon B. It’s like he watched the video and you inspired this idea or something 🤔

[@fishingforveterans4379]

I want to do the same thing to a trailblazer 4x4. 2002 Trailblazer

[@bryceryan766]

BancroftOutdoors hahahah I commented before I watched the video

[@bryceryan766]

Jon B. I commented that before I watched the video😭

[@swimmer8585]

I’m saving up for an old Toyota too. Can’t wait to see this thing in action

[@Antznewz]

roll cage, 12 inch lift, big ol tires

[@e4t662]

Hoovie's garage shoot out! 140k? Brand new.....

[@CreekFishingAdventures]

an OFFROAD SLEEPER ive never heard that phrase before but i like it

[@BassBros8]

Always early on your vids, keep up the great work🔥

[@lojofishing]

I ain't hatin, you save so much on ins. and gas per year...

[@cambyrne3696]

lojo.fishing except he paid 13k

[@DDL-n2u]

I'm 100% a Land Cruiser guy for life after owning 4Runners. My 2008 200 Series has nearly 200,000 miles and its only dropped $3k in value in 3 years and sounds and runs and looks brand new. Flawless Toyota Maintenance Schedules are key to their fehicles. I'll keep it until 250,000 or 300,000 and then probably get into a 2014, or an 80 Series.

[@zacbrownoutdoors9682]

The land bruiser

[@shelleysnead9211]

He was whipping it

[@Texasman992]

king or fox coil overs on a 4-6 in lift, bumper replacements, snorkel, cvt tint for roof, 35 12.5 17 bfg tiers on a 17 method wheel

[@cooperharlin5177]

Ancient(16 years old) Lol

[@bengleason6051]

Cooper Harlin yeah I figured it'd be like 70s or older

[@rtmotovlogs7235]

lol

[@npc-ej5yz]

Toyot=Lexus , every sporting car enthusiast know this...plus the Land Cruiser WAS 80Gs new?? What can you buy these days for 13000? Maybe a 10 year old Chevy ext cab with 100k miles...or how about a 07 Wrangler with 120k....inflation, money manipulation,and a "quantitative easing"has driven up all vehicle prices....GOOD BUY that tail gate is boss Jonny . Reminds me of our ol Honda Element AWD. P.s. we love our 10 year old V8 Toyota Sequioa and F.J. cruiser -->>(hopeless addict)

[@davidzellers3537]

Roof basket with two rod tubes on top on each side of roof basket! Then look up bed modifications for 4Runners. You can leave the second row seats. I have done all of these things to my 2002 4Runner.

[@KEVIN11534]

Why don’t u save up for a truck like flair peric or lunkerstv

[@bena1549]

Kevin115340 he has a new 4Runner and he doesn’t meet to save up lol he could buy 10 of them in an instant

[@JonBrollin]

Because that’s laaaaame

[@KEVIN11534]

Jon B. Hey u replied back cool btw I like ur new car the Japanese story convinced me of ur buy

[@mnmoutdoors566]

Jon B. Put a lift on it

[@jallmyd4693]

Jeep??? 👍

[@83jbbentley]

Toy Yoda The K9 blazer and I think the Ford Bronco I had that tailgate flip thingy..

[@johnrichardson7041]

So does the first gen GMC Yukon Denali

[@fishingforveterans4379]

I remember the old blazers did that

[@redsballer1904]

Aight, here’s what I think. I own a 1992 FJ80, 1993 FZJ80, and have owned a 1976 FJ40, and a 1988 LJ71. I’d say swap out the IFS for a solid axle from an 80 series, get rid of the running boards, 2”-2.5” OME lift with 33” BFG all-terrains. You can put a bumper on it and all that kinda stuff if you want, ARB and TJM and Jason Reeves of Trail Tailor all make good bumpers. Not sure if Jason still does 100 series bumpers but his stuff is awesome.

[@corey0189]

Is ThAt A sUpRa!?!??!?

[@joshuahoover5791]

Toyota taco ftw

[@BuckcreekTV]

I just did some work to mine

[@RottenWaste]

For sure need a roof rack for the rooftop tent, swing out rack for the cans and spare wheel. So much you can do with this build just hit the forums and drool over all the possibilities!

[@chickenfriedfishin]

call it "OLD"

[@mikalkitchens9194]

The puddle of water is your overflow hose is clogged up on your ac/heater core so it’s forcing the waste water back into your floor board a lot of old vehicles do that

[@livinginthesip8511]

Looks like an evaporator core leak, if that's what it is it's not cheap or easy. Good looking ride though, congrats!!

[@shmeeshtime3533]

John.E.ssippi Fishing an evaporator core would leave refrigerate not water, could just have a cracked air box letting the condensation from the ac leak on the floor instead of out the drain. A heater core would leak onto the floor but he would have noticed it was coolant

[@Thebaconatoification]

John.E.ssippi Fishing I'd say check the a/c drain tube to see if its clogged

[@calebrosslong]

Happened to me couple weeks back, super easy fix

[@jc2561]

this was my guess as well.

[@MagicMikeSkishing]

Water is probably the heatercore

[@risingembersgaming7740]

The touch screen was introduced in 2003, so that must not be a 2002, unless it’s aftermarket, but it looks factory because you say it controls climate.

[@destinylizard3925]

U should get a light bar

[@bosshog2111]

Old Reliable 😎

[@space.cowboy69]

Name: Maroon Monster Mods: - 6” lift - 12-14” wide wheels - 35” all terrains - bed in the back - roof rack - roof tire carrier - gas cans - curved roof light bar - steel front bumper with winch and bull bar - grille light bars - snorkel - magna flow exhaust - PAINT THE UNDERSIDE WITH RUST INHIBITOR - better gps - hood mounted extended jack - exocage with ladder on the side THAT WOULD BE THE ULTIMATE LAND CRUISER

[@adriankubik6425]

Ratchet from transformers

[@tjstanbery2670]

Notification squad 🤙🏼

[@Me497]

Heres a few ideas 3" body lift Bigger tires Custom front and rear bumpers that give you more clearance. Custom roof rack Ditch the side steps because you'll bottom out on them. And last but not least... LIGHT BAR. Halogen light design from 16 years ago aint gonna cut it brother.

[@jonpopowitz8111]

wrap it

[@oscarvalmart]

Name it "Jon E Be Good"

[@janetrothwell1316]

Jonb

[@biggiezboi]

As a mechanic... all I can say is that a 92 Ford Explorer would be a better option if you wanted a tank that lasted longer with minimal maintenance. Lacks the electronic perks though and mileage. That being expected I expect a 4 inch lift, a snorkel, dual forwards facing offroad lights, and 26in tires. Also a mobile kennel for lucky.

[@henrymorris7189]

Pontiac Aztecs have a tailgate

[@AxelSteel84]

they also come with a tent and air matress

[@masongray3043]

But it’s a Pontiac Aztec for fucks sake

[@walkerapplestein1787]

It has a cooler as the center console.
