The Family Cruiser 250
United States

Just purchased our 2024 Land Cruiser 1958 trim in Ice Cap White and want to share our owner experience both on and off-road. Stay tuned for daily use, adventures and mods.
Trailhunter/TRD 2024 Land Cruiser 250?!
I had the opportunity to do some R&D with K&N Air Filters. They fit their new intake system + charge pipes for the new 2024 Toyota Land Cruiser 250. To my surprise, they also installed a TRD Exhaust.
One of the biggest complaints of the new generation Land Cruiser 250 "Prado" is the weak engine noise. It is a 4-cylinder and it sure does sound like one. However, it does have a turbo which is much louder now with the increased airflow from the K&N intake system + charge pipes. The turbo spooling and the blowoff valve are enhanced and it sounds glorious. A lot of people love the Trailhunter trims in the Tacoma and new 4Runner because the snorkel also enhances that noise. Then the TRD exhaust adds a deeper and "throatier" sound which makes it now sound like truck. It sounds great a low speeds and almost disappears at high speeds which is perfect.
I have not received any performance numbers from K&N yet but I'm sure it will be included in their release notes for the products.

Wife hates the new Land Cruiser
Переглядів 9 тис.2 місяці тому
Our first long roadtrip fully loaded with 2 kiddos under 3. On this trip I interviewed my wife and asked her what she thought about the new Land Cruiser. Her biggest complaint was the room, particularly the rear bench seat where she spent most of road trip wedged between 2 car seats. With our youngest only being 3months old and not fond of car rides yet, she had to sit back there with him to co...

Same no issues.
i sure hope toyota fixes this and the lexus issues. my guess is they will replace all these parts on future production runs. Toyota is becoming the McDonalds of the car industry. never get anything right but you keep going back for more.
any rubbing on stock suspension bout to go for this
Not this this setup.
What you mean by plus charge points?
@@andrew5373 charge pipes
I'm hoping to buy the Land Cruiser and I'm looking at the exact same wheel and tire package. Looks great! I assume you don't have a lift and is there any rubbing issues?
I heard it's even worse on its corporate cousin, the Lexus GX. The mirrors are melting like like taffy.
@@normanli7085 yea, so those reports
Got to get me one of those. Great video! New sub here.
Are you talking about the LC250? Despite all the negativity about the 4cylinder and not being an actual Land Cruiser, it sure is plenty capable.
If you do modified the engine do Toyota void the warranty?
@@glennrealica3229 not that I know of. I’ve out on bolt on parts like this before with no void so we’ll see.
Do you have PPF over that?
@@Ghost_LC250 no ppf on the pillar
@ I will keep an eye on mine, hopefully Toyota takes care of it.
Oh I bet you are pissed. What is Toyota doing
@@mikemellon80 haven’t sent the email yet
Reflection from some mirror
Smh
@@TheVertigohtm that’s the theory
Put it on my Tahoe in the 2010 time line and not much difference🤨
@@sylviawelsh9518 put an intake?
@@TheFamilyCruiser250 yes
🤔🤔🤔🤨
What about performance
@@sylviawelsh9518 no numbers from K&N yet. But should be the same as the Tacoma application.
I can’t wait to get this. Haha I’ve been waiting.
exciting to see aftermarket support growing for our cars, but I will say the cold engine rattle noises are probably not "fixed" just covered up with intake and exhaust sounds here... i could be wrong though, but i have a 2025 LC and it is a bit embarrassing when i hear that tractor sound when pulling away from a stop sign/light. why is this engine so damn noisy!? Toyota makes near silent 4cylinders in other applications.
@@johnb-ke9xi it definitely covers it up. Luckily the cold start rattle goes away. The exhaust definitely helps drown the noise out haha
I sure hope they make a non hybrid LC. Yours looks great though.
@@mikemellon80 thanks, but I doubt they will. The non-hybrids will be available in the 4Runner.
Take my money
Very cool. I was wondering when we would get some new filter / air box options. Same goes for exhaust. Is K&N going to sell the exhaust or is Toyota? Lastly, do you have any ideas when they plan to release either of these?
@@EmperorFoxx sadly, I have no information on release of the products.
My trail hunter sounds a lot better
@@davidchenette1091 I’m sure the turbo noise is a lot louder with the snorkel.
@TheFamilyCruiser250 yes this trail hunter is a beast 💪
It happens only Land Cruiser GR
@@grayowl1509 Maybe they’ll make a 250 GR 😜
I think I have a similar Pelican case (which model is yours?). How did you attach to your roof rack? I know pelican makes some pretty sweet (expensive!) brackets of their own…
bx90 and mount with the FrontRunner pelican mounts.
Will you be making a video on your DV8 front bumper, winch, and light bar install?
No, but I'm sure DV8 will have one or someone who has bought the bumper recently might do an install vid.
Love the round headlights on the 1958 and FE. I went with the FE only because I wanted the additional tech and leather. Love mine so far. Just hit 1k miles.
For my 205 Land Cruiser, my issue is that the engine seems to have high ditched sound like kettle or whistle when at low speed. Do you have this issue?
Only issue i had was the dealership not having alignment specs for it because the car is "too new" other than that mines been perfect. White 1958
Ah the Prado! the most nimble Land Cruiser of all!
I can hear high pitches sound maybe from engine when driving in slow speed. The sound is like Like whistle or a kettle
Zero issues running mine hard af
@@nateru2 where are you wheeling??
Hi love the vid, What about the spare location in down side, does it fit for new set up?
@@Ibnlaahad5319 the spare cargo area fits up to a 33” tire.
Finally! Just the bumper though, it seems, for now. DV8 says there is minor cutting involved with installation. Do you know how much "cutting" was needed? Thanks.
@@EmperorFoxx just the center portion where the bumper sits
Looked like a fun time at that trail. Looked like a gokd mix of some technical stuff and nice easy going driving.
@@itsaboutfam such a beautiful area. I highly recommend
Toyota did a great job on the design of the new LC. Trips with young kids are always interesting and never really comfortable. We took many road trips with our 2002 Montero when our kids were little. The middle seat issue was the same with my wife.
@@itsaboutfam yea it’s always going to be an issue unless you have a mini-van
@TheFamilyCruiser250 Hence why we got a Sienna. We both said to ourselves we should have gotten one sooner as we both didn't find mini vans appealing prior. It was a game changer after buying one ...road trips were much more comfortable and they are surprisingly very practical.
@ we’re looking into an electric mini van, the VW Buzz
Where I can buy this rims ?
@@Vintage-Vespa-Miami fifteen52 wheels Use discount code: cruiser250
I bought one … delivery Saturday ( I don’t care what they say …talk is cheap) Choose the 1958 to all of you saying for 6 k you can have the Land Cruiser trim I gonna tell them I was lucky to get mine with accessories in 60k and I bought it in Ny because in Fl was impossible same like mine is $69k and next trim 79k on top I wanted to pay cash nobody and accepted.
@@Vintage-Vespa-Miami congrats! You’re not going to regret it!
@ thank you
Sold ours after 3,700mi. No reliability issues but the hybrid setup is terrible. Tuned poorly, poor gas mileage plus premium, and it sounds horrible. Love the look inside and out. But definitely not what we’d hoped for overall.
@@wheatona what gas mileage are you expecting from a 4x4? I’m not crazy about the sound, but love the quietness on the trail cruising low speed on battery only.
@ was expecting monroney numbers. Less range and higher cost than our previous 4Runner TRD Pro (premium needed vs regular of course). But glad you’re enjoying yours!
@@wheatona thanks! I’m sure someone will make a bigger tank for these things since people who need the range won’t have a spare underneath.
@@TheFamilyCruiser250 true, this is not a Prius
@@TheFamilyCruiser250 I did 1400 miles during the weekend 20mpg at 70mph Around 280-300 miles (first trip with cero miles on the car) let me tell you, after 300 miles you need a break specially if you are over 50 years old. I did in the summer Mia -New Orleans in 15 hours in one shoot ( never again) you need to stop
Same. No issues at all.
@@EmperorFoxx ours are made in Japan so the number of issues should be low.
33s no lift?
@@NamSandwich-xz5us no lift
It doesn’t even have a traditional startup sound. That’s dope actually 🔥
@@KidJaeProductions the hybrid battery starts everything up
R u using regular or premium ?
@@richlin2384 premium
That looks sick did you black out the front?
@@mattryan3118 no it comes that way 😎
What's the offset on those wheels?
Cool vids. 👍 Will you be making any videos about your mods and accessories?
Been meaning to......soon

For road trip in the highway is this car noise above 70 Mph ? Im planning to buy the same like yours
@@Vintage-Vespa-Miami with my roof rack and accessories it can be noisy. But overall it doesn’t bother me.
@ thank you
@ also tires make the difference off-road for highway may also produce some noise.. Im from Miami FL. Mostly highway use
To be fair her dislikes pertain to every Toyota 4x4 ever 😂 Good to see people actually using their cruiser
@@williamellerman6647 intended use only…. And Costco runs! 😜
Lmao sooner or later that water gonna get that little 4banger battery
@@Sevencastle battery is in the rear cargo area so we’re all good, but thanks for the concern.
Did you reset your speedo?
I have not done that yet
I am looking for 17x8j +20offset with 285/70/r17. Do you think will trimming offset +20?
With that size tire, no trimming needed
