You're kidding, right?
Seems to me that they only made Fjs in 1986 for all of them here, I only wish I had bought that 86 I looked at back in the day!

Yes, the 86' year seems as common as flies. Maybe the world (back in 86') had an over abundance of ambulance drivers looking for ambulance colored fun? Now that I think about that... My 86' is the most likely reason for a ride in an ambulance.... Good thing I wear ATGATT...
The glass is not half full, it was engineered with a 2X safety factor.

Or perhaps buyers had better taste in 1986 than in other years? Perhaps?
