My FJ is my daily driver. I know you might believe your random drives in the FJ are = to my DD experience....but thats not possible.

The point everyone missed is that its not a power issue but rater a wheel base issue. Yes, a longer wheel base vehicle will tow better....but...the FJ is not under powered.
Having towed in a wrangler and an fj, I can attest that power is part of the issue.
