    A Land Cruiser holds its value so well for 1 reason and 1 reason only: They last forever.
    Their mechanicals are simple, reliable, and overbuilt. Add to that the fact they are an SUV purpose-built for offroading and most will never see anything harder than the overflow parking at the kids' soccer field and you have an SUV that has a reputation for never breaking.

      @kg_canuck Рік тому +1

      "Overbuilt" applies to these vehicles more than any other that people use that term around.
      Most vehicles and their components are built to something like a 10-15 year standard. Ie, they expect all the peices, if well taken care of, to work for that amount of time, and after that it's mostly up to the owner to make extra sure they stay in good condition.
      Land Cruisers are built to a 25-30 year standard. Everything is heavier and thicker. Therefor less likely to bend, break or rust through.

    • @stevelikesrhino
      @stevelikesrhino Рік тому +2

      I agree on the reliable and overbuilt part, but they aren't as simple and barebone as people think they are. The public mistaken land cruiser series (land cruiser, prado, 4runner, GX, LX) of being too simple to break, but when you take a closer look: standard hydroboost brakes, active traction control that can do half what a locker can do, weird interior lights that you only found out after 10 years of ownership; all wheel drive (except current 4runner), adaptive learning transmission, active height control that most likely will work after 20 years, if road salt didn't destroy it. They aren't exactly simple, they are simply built different.

    8:22 The pollen filtration in the Land Cruiser is because in Japan, after WWII, there was an effort to jumpstart the timber industry. After sometime, lumber was much cheaper to import from elsewhere than processing in Japan. So there are TONS of abandoned tree plantations that churn out a bunch of pollen in the season.

      I'd say, 78.3% of the Cruisers I see down here only touch dirt in roadworks. Most of the remainder go "4wding" through country that I could walk my open diffed, bald tyred, low running 97 XH through, without needing to give it all the sauce. But those cars still get the full works from ARB as the boomer owner draws on his superannuation and prays the ol'ball and chain doesn't find out.
      The older models tend to be muck akin to a travelling playpen as they pay off the personal loan used to buy them with trade ins at Cashies as the misso does extra shifts down at Coles to keep food in the guts of 6 and a half kids, 'but we need it love, gotta be able to take all the kids out sometime'.
      Taking a more serious note, do we need things like hill descent? I'm no boomer here, but I was taught, many years ago, about this magical middle pedal that you need to master. You don't just randomly stab it in Safeway carpark, you control it. But then again, I don't have the money to throw 25k of car down a slope I couldn't climb with a ladder, so perhaps I shouldn't talk!

    In New Zealand, the Land Cruiser is the SUV you buy not to look rich, but because you are rich and you have the toys to prove it. I've never seen a Range Rover towing a massive boat or a horse float. Plenty of Land Cruisers towing boats and horses, and then some.
    It's the SUV that either spends its time sitting in the driveway of the Herne Bay bungalow because it can't fit inside the garage, or sitting outside a lifestyle block that has actual livestock on it. Or in an airport storage carpark for rental cars.

It'll be 12 with occasional tanking to 11 if runs are especially short. 13-14 is if there's some 70MPH highway runs, even tho the gearing is most efficient at 55-60. It's the reason in college I would leave it parked for over a month at a time, accomplishing everything with a bike or my legs. Also, gas was routinely $4/gal at that time.

      Here in Naples Florida that is absolutely true. There are a couple Karens here that drive Bentley SUV’s. Those are the ultimate Karens.

    😂. Saw a weed vape pen in one of my elderly moms drawers just last week when I stopped by to visit. I didn’t say a word just pretended I didn’t see it while she slammed the drawer closed.

    Ytd, the funniest YT video I've seen and... I may or may not have watched more YT hours this year than I have TV in the last decade. Blows my mind that he doesn't have 500K plus followers. How is this possible??? Comedic genius here everybody!

    The Land Cruiser is for the man who knows what he's about. He doesn't have time for the bougie boredom of a Lexus LX. Land Cruiser man speaks for himself. He doesn't need to be posting his grille-mounted Ls.

    Toyota doesn't really care to sell many land cruisers in the U.S. market, that's what the sequoia and Lexus versions are for. A new 2021 Land cruiser tops $90K now, and they can sell every one they make in other markets in the world. I got lucky with mine, found a 2004 100 series with 120K miles for $16K a few years ago. I didn't really want a land cruiser, but when you see one with less than 300,000 miles and with an interior that doesn't look like it was eaten by a pack of starving wolves, You don't turn away from it. I love this beast, been doing my own work on it and see it as a good long term investment car wise. I just let some starbucks swiller in newport beach eat the depreciation on it for me. These things run forever, and for its size it is shockingly heavy and dives so solid I can hardly believe it.
    Worth every dollar.

    Since weed vapes were mentioned, avoid that stuff if you value your lungs. Weed vapes(as well as some regular vapes) often contain vitamin e acetate as well as other chemicals that can clog and scar your lungs very quickly. Self inflicted cystic fibrosis is a pretty bad way to go.

    I find it interesting that he keeps saying the Land Cruiser is “too much truck” and people should get a Sequoia, when the Sequoia is even larger and heavier than the Cruiser is, and has the exact same same gas-guzzling motor.
