    I think the design is cool. Not sure the 4cyl power plant would work for me though. I do like the Lexus GX550. Not sure the V6 power plant is sorted enough for me yet. C’mon Toyota, get it together already. Let us know how you like the LC!

    Very nice, congrats! I'm definitely interested in hearing what you think of it. My wife is due for a new vehicle (she drives a 2013 Ford Escape) and this is one of the options.

    So far so good, the 4 cylinder/Turbo and Hybrid has pretty good power, I test drove a 4Runner OR, without the Hybrid system, you could really tell a difference.

    I really like it, test drove it and the 4Runner OR (non Hybrid), thought the Land Cruiser/LC road better and had allot more power, but some without the 3rd row may not like it. I haven't heard the wind noise that TRD Jon and few others complained about, I think just say shit for click bait. The seats are comfortable, doesn't have the massaging seats. Allot of folks complain about all the stuff that comes on Safety Sense 3.0, I haven't heard the bells they talk about, but I did turn off allot of the dings and stuff using Carista. I would have her test drive both the LC and 4Runner, I got $4K or so off the MSRP, but they wouldn't budge on the 4Runner, they were at MSRP with no dealer add ons. They currently have 2 OR (non-hybrid) and LC 1958 and LC/LC inbound.

    Curious of interior space compared to the LC200 and GX. In between? Smaller? Nice color!

    I would think the GX and LC have the same cargo space since they are more or less the same minus front end and power plant, don't know about he LC200 cargo space.

    Nothing big at the moment, added (no pics), the JDM Rain Clearing Blue Convex OEM mirror, FitcamX dash cam, waiting on JDM Horns, additional tailgate interior light. Down the road will be doing some bigger upgrades though.

    Beautiful truck! We love our Cruisers even more than Tundras. A friend even called my Tundra “ a poor man’s 200 series.” Wishing you many happy miles.
