- In this video I provide a 5K mile ownership update on my 2021 Toyota Land Cruiser Heritage Edition in Magnetic Grey Metallic. I know 5K miles isn’t a lot… but for me it may as well be 100K. =]
My family and I have grown to really love this Land Cruiser. I won’t have another opportunity to own a “new” one again so I’m trying my best to enjoy it to the fullest this time around.
Let me know your thoughts! Should I keep this and forego the 2022 Toyota Sequoia TRD Pro?
Thanks for watching as always.
-Stay Untamed…
Have enjoyed your comments on the Heritage throughout all your videos! I've got a 2021 Magnetic Grey Metallic Heritage as well. Only 3000 miles at this point. I've had a few 200 Series over the years and this Heritage continues to put a smile on my face every time I'm in it. And yes, I turn around to see how she looks in the parking lot every time I get out! LOL! Although you've done a great job, it is hard to explain and get others to understand what the Land Cruiser is all about, and its legacy over the decades around the globe. She's truly a rare bird.
feel the same way about my 2016 trail 4runner with KDSS, there's something about driving this vehicle that keep's you wanting it and never letting it go. value, dependable,reliable, built rock solid go anywhere just to mention a few. and have had zero problems, who would ever thought a vehicle could constantly have you turn your head when you walk away from it. love my 4runner.
When sun hits that magnetic gray and u see the blue sparkles..brings a grin to my face every time.
For those of us who don’t have the opportunity of owning one, keep it!!
Sounds like a good plan to me!
You said it, I have always thought the 200-series looked like a Toyota Highlander, if you squint your eyes and look at them quickly. That being typed, if I hit the Mega Millions, I would buy a 2021 LC the same day.
5K is the most you’ve put in a single vehicle. I’ve been in Colorado since 2004 via Texas. You’ll love it!
Haha yeah! Thanks man, we’re very excited for the move.
I really hope you keep this one… I think you should actually name HER that way you have a deeper connection and never let go of her 😏
Haha that’s not a bad idea… lol hmmm
Untamed has the best LC content on UA-cam! Beautiful ride!
I've been in the market for a daily driver/road trip vehicle to pile miles on. The LC and LX have always been on my list including Raptor, TRD PRO, and RR. At the price point, I feel I can get other vehicles than LC/LX with more road isolation + comfort, but at the cost of reliability which isn't good for road trips. I keep watching all of your videos debating between what to get and the LC Heritage is always on my mind.
I’ve never met a single person who has regretted buying a land cruiser… =] let me know what you decide.
Do yourself a favor Roc…follow your instinct and get the LC Heritage. I watched Untamed for months and months with his first LC Heritage and kept coming back to it as well. I was NOT about spending 90k on a vehicle initially. This vehicle is an exception. And exceptional! I nicknamed mine Chug….and it really does chug alot of fuel. If that’s ok with you then as pointed out by others you will make that up in reliability savings hands down. For the record I’m as guilty as everyone else in turning around and looking back every single time I park!! Untamed offers great insight and the Car Care Nut has a great pros/cons of the LC as well. You won’t regret it and good luck!
Annual road tax for this vehicle in the UK is around $1000
Imagine that trim piece would be covered under warranty if you’ve owned it less than a year
Yeah it for sure is. Take 2 seconds to pop back in so it hasn’t bothered me enough to waste an afternoon at a Toyota dealership getting it fixed.
Great Video… keep it forever and really see if it withstands the rest of time !
Thanks Omar! agreed. No other vehicle will ever offer this level of peace of mind. =]
@@UntamedMotors You got that right. It really is the pinnacle of Toyota QDR. Unfortunately, I think it's all downhill from here. We're at a point in time where I would argue, the best vehicles have already been built.
Great vid! Question: after the 5k oil change, do you do 10k intervals or 5k still ?
I still do the 5K intervals -though it’s not “needed”
@@UntamedMotors Toyota Master Tech says 5k is best . You can follow him on here. The Car Care Nut.
Keep! It’s a rare species now
Amen to that! =]
The best LC ever made
Definitely connected with your comment about the raptor. I just bought a 2022 F350 tremor as a base platform for a extensive overland camper build and part of be wishes I maybe purchased my dream 200 HE as the base price for my truck was about the same. As a long time Toyota guy I can relate to many of the comments you made. I think you’d be hard pressed to find a safer and more dependable vehicle for the wife and kids… at least that’s what I keep telling mine.
Looking forward to looking at your other 200 related content.
I appreciate it Garrett. I actually just decided to buy another Land Cruiser… picking it up this weekend. Regretted selling this. =\
@@UntamedMotors sounds like I have some channel updates to look through. What pricing are you seeing for low mileage HE’s?
I had a 2012 LC. Solid vehicle but I didn't like how it tends wander at around 80 mph. It didn't feel stable during lane changes at high speeds. Not sure if it was the LC in particular or it's something that happens to all large trucks.
I was strongly deliberating between trading my Tundra TRD PRO for a LC and noticed the same thing on a test drive. The LC required significant more driver input at highway speeds than the Tundra. That makes a big difference on long highway trips. That was the deal-breaker for me.
What size are those K02s? Looks great. 285/65/18?
That rock chip can be filled and it won’t get bigger. Have one just like it on mine.
Yep! It’s been filled already. Didn’t want to rock a spider web cracking.
Sweet cruiser! Magnetic grey is the best. What amount of tiny did you go with all around?
Thanks man! 285/65r18 tires
@@UntamedMotors sorry I fat fingered the Y. I was curious about your window tint. I watched video again and it’s 20% on windows and 50% on windshield.
Looks great and I bet helps a ton with heat.
@@oliverhauser436 I did 20% around. 50% on windshield. 👍
Good day my brother hope you and the family are well thanks for the video never go 10,000 miles on your oil 5000 max do not believe them they are doing that for the environment I would most definitely hang onto that one that’ll be worth some good money you could sell it way down the road if need be🤣
Truly a great suv. I remember watching Doug’s video on it last year. I’ll have to check the recall on the Raptor. Thanks
It’s a tank for sure. =]
Just texted you the recall notice.
The cup holder is awful too. Still love my LC!
Haha oh yes! The cheapest plastic known to man…
That is a gorgeous Land Cruiser. Love the wheels and how well they go with the color
How did you like the prinsu? I own a 2020 HE LC and need a rack. Rhino Rack looks the best but is impractical for rooftop tents, never owned a prinsu rack, was wondering why you took yours off?
Huge fan of the Prinsu rack. I’d buy them again 100%
in a world full of mediocre SUVs, the Toyota LC stands beautiful and proud.
Amen to that! =]
I’d be curious to know if you will consider upgrading the infotainment system to have Apple Car play?
Love the video! Landcruiser is a beast!!
You’re going to keep this. Forever. Thanks
Thanks brother! Appreciate your support as always! And that’s the plan! =]
@@UntamedMotors 7 months later I am still looking at your videos for LC inspiration!
It’ll be great to have you in Colorado. You’ll have to bring the family down to Durango, CO where I live one of these years. I’m guessing it’s Fort Collins that you all are moving to.
Appreciate the warm welcome Lawrence! We’re very excited for the move. =]
Yep or Windsor… or Loveland.
Dream car.
=] thank you. I’m super grateful to have it.
I hope gas prices keep going up, I'm noticing more land cruisers for sale recently
“I did that”
@@BigMikeRobinsonFJB thanks Brandon keep up the bad work.
Any regrets with tinting from windshield?
Please keep it!!!
That’s the plan this time! =]
That is a lifetime truck.
What exactly did you do to lift the front? I have a Heritage as well and still don’t know why, and certainly I don’t like the look, of the lifted rear end. Why did you lift the front instead of lowering the rear? Also, did lifting the rear change the ride or handling?
I actually bought it like this, the dealership installed the leveling kit and larger AT3Ws tires. Not sure which brand they used but it’s under warranty still since they installed it.
Let’s face it the vehicle is just very sexy
Nice LC !!! What size are those K02s? Looks great. 285/65/18?
Yep that’s the correct size 👌
Thanks man!
LT tires? or XL in the KOs?
@@UntamedMotors I have a 2018 LC. Do your tires rub when off roading? I'm debating on tire sizes.
Just have the dealership change the trim piece under warranty and be done with it,I enjoy my 21 LC very much as well I really hate the lack of tech in the vehicle for the amount of money we drop on this vehicle but it’s Toyota what can you do.
Untamed what leveling kit did you install?
I’m actually not sure… sorry. They made it sound as though it was a generic brand so I don’t have a ton of confidence in it. But! Toyota performed the work so it’s under warranty thankfully. =]
Fresh my guy 👍👍
Thank you! Appreciate it.
I’ve always wondered how the build quality on the Lexus gx compares to the land cruiser and lx. Is it ruggedly overbuilt to the same level?
The Lexus GX is also made at the same Tahara plant in Japan where this LC was made. It’s a 1mm mile vehicle. Consumer Report says the GC is not only the most reliable SUC in 2022, but the most reliable vehicle, period.
Well, here I am about to buy a land cruiser tomorrow.. 97k miles 2015 for 45k hope everything works out
So, any updates?
@yevheniipivovarenko356 held off, still driving my 4R. Saved cash tho lol
How hard is it to find one of these with under 10K miles?
There’s definitely a handful available now but they want too much. They’re starting to drop in value… I would wait until May/June… they’ll be down to $70-80K
How much did the xpel Ppf cost ??
$3200 then $600 for ceramic coat.
Why do you still have a Oregon license plate?
It’s where my primary residence is. Great for sales tax but not so great for income tax.
@@UntamedMotors ah i didn’t know you still had a home in Oregon.
Nice truck! First time I see your face lol
Keep it or sell it to me..lol. Awesome colors.
Haha not trying to make that mistake for a third time! =]
Please please vinyl wrap the Landcruiser! Would love to see this vehicle get another color like maybe Solar Octane, army green or lunar rock like colors! 😅
Haha that’d be pretty sweet actually.
Thought it drove horrible
