Still my favorite SUV. Stealth wealth.
Ha! The kids don't know about this stuff, jrors93. LOL. Thanks for watching!
jrors93 now that’s a good one.😂
@@AutoAcademics Yw man. Yeah, a lot of people don't realize that the Land Cruiser is a stalwart. They are built to last for at least 25 years, before anything major breaks down.
@@jrors93 it needs timing belts every few years... Overpriced JUNK
@Frazer Nash my Jeep has a life time timing chain with almost 400,000 miles and it's still like new... Chains last forever,belts don't...And if the chain breaks it doesn't matter because it a non interference motor...4.0 beast!!!!
"This" is an underrated word. It is "The" SUV.
And most overprices and non stylish
THE is an SUV ? does that even make sense
Your grandkids will be driving it to college.Nothing else compares.
Ha! Possibly, Daniel Judge. And that would make the price more doable, too. LOL. Thanks for watching!
Crazy as it seems/sounds, it's very much possible.....
I’m driving my ‘92 I got from my friends parents. They bought it new. Just hit 221,000
Rolf... your grandkids will not be able to afford to fill this thing up, if gas is even a thing then. : D
TRD PRO 4RUNNER better styling design off road and Reliability ... for 20K -30K Less
This is what Every other SUV dreams of being when they grow up.
mate,,your brainwashed,,there 50,s tech,parts are expensive,there over priced,under powered,too much tech..i have an f250,2002, 6 cyl,german,,tdi,came out in 1997,,with 510 nm,140 kw,,way more than any,,toyota,,in a 4t truck,& still going,2020.WITH NO COMPUTER OR GLOW PLUGS..yeehhh,go toyota..NO THANKS..
@@phantomwalker8251 garbageu
@@phantomwalker8251 Your experience might’d been good with your car but not many others do. LC on the other hand’ve established there image all over the world because they really are reliable and lasts forever.
3:13 i love hearing that start up sound and since I own a 2015 land cruiser I get the blessing of being able to hear that sound every day
Nice! Thanks for watching, Rigoberto Garza!
Most relaible Suv in The world..
And most in need of a redesign.
As someone who owns a 94 land cruiser since brand new it broke down on us 3 times and left us stranded on the freeway. It's currently having electrical issues, rattling, and difficulty passing smog. This is a suv with only 90,000 miles garage kept since new with no rust. I wouldn't call it reliable.
@Ming Yang My 99 Ford ranger had zero problems compared to my Land Cruiser.
@@brettrun8575 U don't redesign already elegantly designed toys! It's called "standing the test of time".
Pity Americans don’t get the 70 series landcruiser.
Who every owns and drives a Land Cruiser had good taste in cars
Just about everyone in the middle east....
Yes, it shows not only does the owner have enough money to buy just about any car he/she wants, but that they spend it wisely on a reliable, capable tank.
And Deep Pockets too
2020 Toyota Land Cruiser (Sport utility vehicle)
*MSRP: From $85,315 +*
MPG: 13 city / 17 highway
RIP English
Landcruisers are built for a 25 year service life. This means it was designed to go 25 years with just routine maintenance. Also, they're made at the Tahara plant in Japan, where the Lexus LX (Lexus equivalent of the Landcruiser) is made, as well as various other Lexus models including the flagship LS500.
What plant is the 4runner made and is it better or worse or same
Also the Tahara plant, it's not better or worse. It's smaller, less expensive, still has a great 4WD system, still super reliable and durable.
Mention the most Rugged the 4RUNNER ....TRD PRO
@@CP-kb1du I have the TRD off road with kdss.
@Ishaq Hussain really ? People in australia seem abuse their lc yet still going strong, well they have the 70 series anyways
Best Suv on the planet earth, reliability is the best in the world.
ua-cam.com/video/gCDoM0nD1Mw/v-deo.html and ua-cam.com/video/w7Mn8X4HnYo/v-deo.html . Great reliability for you.
@@aussieoffroadnut1109 dumb fool.they mod their car and drive it like mad.any car would brake down if they are taken care than shitty
This is the SUV That drive the rich in every single nation on this planet . It comes in armored version too. Land cruiser is the father of SUVs .. every other follow behind but never reach the standards .
I don't care aim rich
Never underestimate the best that the Japanese can build. If I could only have TWO cars in my garage it would be a Land Cruiser and a Nissan GT-R.
Same
Same
Fucker anyone ask you?? Showoff fucker....
@@afzalhridoy3509 shut your piehole loser
Nah. Not the gtr. Nsx is where it’s at. Way underrated
Unfortunately this legendary car is dying in us however it’s very popular in the Middle East
Yes we think land cruiser is the best suv and it is ❤
Gaming pro Australia and South Africa Share the Same experience as this beast is truly built to last
It's not dying..in Africa it's the most loved SUV
Definitely not dying in Australia. I’ve had my latest one for 5 years now and it hasn’t missed a beat
It's because we have rugged roads and loads of bumps. Also because driving off road a lot.
I have owned many Toyota Land Cruiser's amongst my family and hand on heart these are the best S.U.Vs in the world bang for buck ..
Nothing goes wrong if maintaining is kept up ...
Lovely motors
I bought a used one last year ( it is a 2017 ) and I could not be more impressed.
Even though it is a little plain and a little overpriced, it will last longer than anything on the road.
This is why they've been around for so long, Jason H K. Enjoy your truck and thanks for watching!
That’s cool, I bought a 2015 land cruiser brand new and now it has 83k miles you’ll love it
Lots of people like the fact that they’re plain. It’s not showy or flashy but it’s more capable than anything on the road. It quiet and respected.
@@willcarlton3906 Land Cruisers are built to work, not to look pretty (as I'm sure you know!). It's the kind of car you'd trust with your life... and you can't say that about many makes or models out there.
Very common and highly respected vehicle here in Australia. Very few people buy the petrol V8 here. I remember the first time I saw one I didn't even realise they existed. We get the 4.5L twin turbo diesel
My grandfather owned a 1994 Land Cruiser 80 series for his last years (RIP). Today 2020 I am taking that amazing vehicle anywhere I go, either to college, or the gym to the farm and cross country dirt roads. God bless the Land Cruiser
Ngl, you got yourself a really great vehicle ;-)
We have in Middle east
A black edition
And white edition
And a VXS. GXR. VXR
And a grand touring
I’ve seen the VXE and i dont know what different about it
Don't forget the EXR it's In UAE and in UAE we have EXR,GXR and VXR
We have executive lounge in Myanmar
I have a vxr its a 5.7L
The best thing about these is going off road and tackling insane trails that you think is gonna struggle with but everytime it goes through them easily while providing a comfortable and luxurious suspension this one doesn't beat you up even in harsh trails it's amazing.
It maybe "old school" but this will last longer than any Land Rover products! No air suspension to deal to deal with, no supercharger, a real 4 wheel drive system, and just being rare to see here in the U.S makes this more desirable to me. Thanks for another great video!
Thanks for watching, Triple P!
#1 selling point is reliability.
Damn shame Toyota doesn’t offer this in a diesel variant. This is the greatest SUV ever assembled time and again. Every generation is solid.
In Australia we get a v8 turbo diesel and there great
@Pedro Areias toyota sells the diesel version here in India.. Why do you think that the diesel version is better.
@Pedro Areias Mostly 4.7L
yes they do. It's just not for everyone.
The diesel V8 we get in Australia is twin turbo and I'd say 90% of 200s here are diesel. The mentality here is that petrol 4x4 are shit. Especially for long distance driving they use way more fuel. If you bring a petrol only 4x4 here it will fail in the market
I love how large SUVs give me a feeling like I am driving a durable strong vehicle that most of crossovers can't do today.
damakun9 especially when you drive over speed bumps you don’t feel like your floor is falling off.
Omg!!!This is a real beast in its finest.Bro the video was great,you've highlighted the key points clearly and simple,keep the good work .
I have one of this and its been reliable for 7 years and counting. Never had a problem only some brake work. Super reliable even if its stock and have street tires. Climbed a pretty steep hill with no problem
The 100 series of these still sell for over 10k, These suvs hold up well. I still see old Lexus LXs and Toyota Land Crusiers on car sites that still sell for 10-30k. They hold up well
NFSMAN50
I have an '89 FJ62 and an '01 UZJ100 with only 106,000. Still solid as a rock. I'm about to get a new 200 I think.
My dad brought a 1998 in 2003 that thing runs just fine with 250,000 miles my brother is now driving it to college and it has everything you need heated seats, Bluetooth, all that
How did they have heated seats in 1988
@@MohamedAhmed-wc3pw *1998
The Bluetooth was added later but the heated seats were stocked
I just stumbled on this review and I liked it, never seen this guy before. The Toyota Land Cruiser is THE BEST car in the world full stop! It's a shame The US doesn't get the V8 turbo diesel, the Australians love them.
There’s a V8 diesel version???
Wow 🤩. Not in the US damn😒
@@arjunapatel3366 yep, Australia and Africa are full of them. There are alot in Ireland too. They tow stupid heavy trailers for here and just don't let people down.

I spent my entire life trying to own a brand new Land cruiser and never was able to afford it. My dad had a brand new 1986 and we loved it since then. Unfortunately, this grate and unique SUV brand is very very expensive.
you are still alive. you can still afford it. find a way to afford it.
Jeremy Jeremy Well, you want to talk about expensive? The LC cost 84k in the US, on my country it cost 149k and still is a good seller because a lot of the people who can afford this kind of prices prefer it over any German, British (Indian) or US brand car. Of course we have more options here, we can have the 5.7 Gas V8 but the most populars are the 4,2 in-line six single turbo diesel Intercooled and the 4,5 Twin turbo diesel V8. There is a saying here about The Land Cruiser “ for those who do not change with successful” talking about the pretenders who drive a Range Rover or similar just to look fancy or rich even when we all know it will broke down in a short while and will have almost zero resale value after a few years.
As a 4Runner owner, the Land Cruiser is what I hope one day to be an upgrade of mine. The Land Cruiser is the world's BEST SUV.
TRD PRO 4 RUNNER can actually go OFF ROAD ....
@@CP-kb1du Any of the 4Runner trims can go off-road. The TRD Pro is better suited out of the box compared to the others though.
Without a doubt The Best SUV Of All Time.
like we say here? BULLSHIT YOU DONT KNOW SUV'S THIS ONE EATS THAT JUNK ALIVE AND DOES IT AT 0-60 IN 3 SECONDS!! LET RACE FOR PINKS? 0-60 IN THREE SECONDS BEST OF SLL TIME YEAH RIGHT SPARKY. ua-cam.com/video/bsdljQaGnAM/v-deo.html
I’ve had 4 Toyota hilux all new from 2003 to 2019 crew cab pickups and when new all pickups look the same .but the big difference is when them years go by and most other trucks start to get rattles and clanks I know my Toyota still runs like new.
SUV na, it's the best 4x4 ever made.
That’s the 4Runner
@@atl3630 no. LC has more power and better off-road capabilities. But that makes 4runner more fuel efficient. I love both of them.
We have and had land cruisers all our lives..
Honestly hand on heart won't exchange for nothing.
Recently we only have the 90 series
100
120
150
200
Excellent trucks ..
These things have been in use in Africa since I can remember. Most reliable car ever built
so long as you dont touch it..
@@phantomwalker8251 What?
I don't think there's a vehicle made that I want more. Legendary.
It is definitely legendary, Trigger Happy. Thanks for watching!
This is an SUV and this is a GREAT REVIEWER!
Ha! You da man, pedro fernandez!
at selling yesterday's trucks? ua-cam.com/video/bsdljQaGnAM/v-deo.html
To add to the confusion-In Australia an SUV is a 2WD or AWD vehicle. The Landcruiser is called a 4x4 as it's designed for off road driving. We wouldn't call this an SUV.
@Ackj 375718 And we have three Landcruiser models in Australia. The 70, Prado and 200. Looking at the US Toyota site, they don't sell the poverty pack base model 200 series. Used here by farmers, retirees, police and other government agencies.
@Ackj 375718 Yep, the LC150 is what we call the Prado. In Europe they just call it the Landcruiser (they don't sell the series 200 there except in Russia and surrounding countries). I see that in the US they sell the 4Runner instead.
@Ackj 375718 We don't get the 4Runner here (used to as a grey import) so don't know what they're like. Toyota overkill the Australian market. They also sell the Fortuna here. What country are you in?
This car is just power and durability coupled with luxury and insanely awesome offroad capability.
Yup! Thanks for watching, Cherry God's eye!
Land Cruisers are great, I just wish they weren’t exclusively ‘luxury’ vehicles in the U.S. IMO they need a true utility base model with cloth interior and just the basics like they do with the LC200 in international markets
I'm a new subscriber. This is a fantastic video. I don't even like big ol SUVs like this but the way you shot it was great.
Thank you, Marques Bland! We appreciate your support!
I like your presenting style pal! Hello from across the pond!! 👍
Thank you, joesm00th. We're happy you found us!
The Best of the Best ! A legend in its own !
Wow a car with these many features you’ll need no other for life
It definitely seems that way today, ogpaulw33zy GodsCREATION. Thanks for watching!
Watch what this vehicle does off road and it's capabilities. The Australians take this car and off road to another level!
Babar Asad also Dubai people in the sand
@@rigobertogarza7945 yup that too! I live in Dubai as well but that's just extra modifications to climb up a sand wall. It's nothing challenging as it is when you're in the wild. Although, it's very tough to drive on a desert anyway.
Actually it's limited off road...For serious off roading, Australians use LC79 and Nissan Patrols...Land Cruisers don't do rock crawling or serious technical driving very well, but they were not designed to do that...Land Cruisers are best at what they call, "Overlanding or Expedition driving."
Best review till date. Just straight and straight. No long craps.
Thanks for watching, Ahmad Daud!
Great review! I'm glad you emphasized its capabilities. This is no cross-over...car like ride vehicle. Its designed to go off the road.
Sure is, nub Fishing. Thanks for watching!
I agree, he made sure to describe the car as it really is.
nub Fishin so is a G Wagon, except the G Wagon is not as thoroughly outdated
@@AmmarMalik G Wagons are ancient! I'd take a Toyota over a Mercedes ANYDAY.
Christopher Hallinan yes I’m sure the new G Wagon with 3 diff locks, 4L twin turbo engine with twice the torque of the land cruiser and a near bulletproof body is less preferable to a Land Cruiser
I just completed 10k kms in my new LC 5.7 peteol 2020. VXr
what an amazing car. The new performance damper guves the same feel and stability of LC570 Lexus. Cabin quietness is also improved. This is a car which is so reliable and heavy which you can put into any tough tests on road , probably offroad even better.
King of 4 wheels....
Enjoy your truck, lapakp, and thanks for watching!
This is the best SUV ever, all other SUV's can stop....but TOYOTA Landcruiser never stopping. The most though engine in the WORLD. In Australia is No.1 - 4 empty spaces then the others . :)
please, this kick its ass? ua-cam.com/video/wJ_gVYIR8Lg/v-deo.html
If $ wasn't an issue, I would have one. I have a LX450, the last solid front axle cruiser. It is definitely lacking in cup holders. Toyota....best auto maker.
I really love the land cruiser hope im able to own this one day with my hard work.
The zooms and views are perfect. Camera man is good. So is editing. Very good
Thank you, User Anonymous staten island. We truly appreciate it. Thanks for watching!
This is a tank. Love it. Hopefully they improve the look a bit in the coming years and improve mpg. Would take this anyway over a Range Rovurrrr
The 4Runner Limited has replaced the Land Cruiser here in the U.S. It may not be built quite a hefty, however, they are very solid and extremely reliable as well.
And frankly, it is sharper than the Land Cruiser.
It's been my mom's dream car since the 90s. After doing research about it and coming across your video, I can see why. I hope I'll be able to drive one in the future 😁
Thanks for watching, Makoto Niijima!
They last FOREVER. Well worth the money. Oh and they can go off-road anytime
Very true. Thanks for watching, bronwynalexandria!
Can’t do a land cruiser review without making it perfectly clear that the best thing about them is that they are literally indestructible. Absolutely standard for people to buy these new and drive them to 250,000 miles or more before trading them in (and still get close to $10,000 in some cases).
Kyle Burns
agree. I have an '01 with 106K and it doesn't have a squeak or rattle. It's built like an old school Mercedes.
I have 94 Land Cruiser since brand new it broke down on me 3 times and currently has 90,000 miles. I wouldn't call it indestructible.
One Man On sounds unlucky to me. We put 140,000 on a ‘98 then traded it in for an ‘05 that I took to 270,000 before trading it in for my FJ Cruiser last year. Never once have been left stranded.
@@OneManOnFire Agree
Great video and with so much good information, thoroughly enjoyed this review ..Brilliant work
We appreciate your comments, Matthew Mensah. Thanks for watching!
Love the land cruiser. I’d trade my 4runner in a heartbeat for one. 😩
Then you'll have to find a blind land cruiser owner. 😎
TRD PRO 4RUNNER is a actual off roader LandCruiser is something else
C Man I own the TRD but make no mistake the Land Cruiser is on another level and has more power. This thing tugs the 4runner and sequoia like it’s on ice😎
@@CP-kb1du watch all 4 adventure Australia they take the 200s everywhere as their main vehicle.
4 runner is good also my uncle has it but he gave it to someone.
2003 model was the best. What they forget to mention is you can take all of the rear and boot seats out. The internal voljme is big enough if you fold down all the seats and remove the boot seats you can transport a boat inside it and a larger kne on the roof rack.
I love my 05 Land Cruiser with 280k miles !!
It is the best car i own the same with 200.000 kmh !!!🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thank you for this. I almost forgot they existed.
Thanks for watching, Major Cheese!
Good review, but you missed the intended purpose of THEE (sic) vehicle - offroad prowess. THEE LandCruiser shines offroad. Nice review!
If that Narrator " Rev's " the engine [ that soon ] after start-up that engine isn't going to last ! 3:00
If you start an engine and let it " Idle " for 60 seconds you can [ w/ scheduled ] maintenance get the expected Life out of the Engine .
If you let the engine " Idle " for 120 seconds you can [ w/ scheduled ] maintenance can get Double the expected Life out of the Engine .
You have to let the OIL get upto the heads !
We appreciate your concern, Cray fish, but fear not. The engines of every car we review are at operating temperature well before the engine start clips you see in our reviews. In fact, that's pretty much the only time we shut the vehicle off, so that we can show the startup. If you pay close attention, you'll hear the engine running on almost every clip of the vehicle. So again, we appreciate your insight and concern, but know that we treat each vehicle that we review as if it were our own. Thanks for watching.
The best suv in world Nice Nice cars
There are reasons we Land Cruiser owners drive them for life and Land Cruiser owners often own more than one. I've had 6 Land Cruisers in the last 25 years and and am an owner for life no comparison in capability, reliability and resale and there are no bad Land Cruiser models.
It is about the price of its lexus equivalent.
The two row lx is actually cheaper.
Keynesian Economics on the current 2016+ yes the approach/departure angles are worse. 2008-2015 LX’s, the approach/departure angles are the same or better due to AHC. Wheels are easily swapped out for 18” Tundra or 200 series LC wheels. After that you have a vehicle which is equally as capable as a 200 series but with a nicer interior. Additionally all 2008+ LX’s have AHC which allows for an array of suspension settings from in the cab, the U.S. LC doesn’t get this. The majority of LX’s and LC’s sold in the U.S. aren’t used for exploring. There’s a fair amount of people who buy an LX secondhand in the U.S. for exploring due to availability. They sell more LX’s here than LC’s making them more abundant.
a a sure does. All the land cruisers and lx 570’s from 2008 to current have the 5.7. They changed the transmission along the way, the newer (I think from 2016 on) lx’s and LC’s have an 8 speed and the 08-15 have a 6 speed.
a a I’ve got a 13 lx and have had zero issues with the battery, doesn’t mean it wasn’t an issue on the years prior. Check out ih8mud, lots of good information and people who can answer questions.
14MPG! My motor gets 40MPG and that's considered poor around here. I'll wait til they reintroduce a hybrid version in about 10 years. I might have saved up enough by then lol.
thats the dream SUV right there!
Luckily we have the 4.5 td in Indonesia, its more efficient and diesel fuel only cost 1,34 usd per galon here (:
THE BEST EVER MANUFACTURED IN MY TIME + + +
Very nice review, I enjoyed the outtakes as well. I appreciate your candor in showing them!! One question. What make and model are those sunglasses?
Ha! Thanks, Mark Johnson. Some days we have more outtakes than we'd like to admit. LOL Chris doesn't know the model of his sunglasses, as they were a gift, but they're made by Polo. Thanks for watching!
Beautiful truck, enjoy your half a million reliable miles 👍
Very concise and to the point review.
Thanks for watching, Amandeep Singh!
When I go back to Africa I’ll get one of those inshallah
Allah doesn't give SUV to people. They themselves have to buy earn or steal
Antariksh Tyagi wtf bro 🤣. Where did I say God give people 🚗
@@abramjeylani2462 you said inshaallah. It means god willing. right?
@Antariksh Tyagi do u know what is the meaning of “if god willing”?
Antariksh Tyagi Inshallah is a general everyday word that is used amongst muslims. Maybe if you looked past your blind hate you would know what it meant. Surprising how India is home to 220 million muslims but still they dont understand the culture.
Hands down best truck out there. Every trim/line/model of the land cruiser is epic. My fav is the pick up version well known as “Abu Shanab” in the middle east (Father of the Moustache” cause moustache is a sign of a fierce and masculine individual
Trailer sway control??? I drive a dually and never heard of that. Put me on game!
Yup. It's a tech that's in a lot of newer trucks/SUVs now. Even the new Explorer has it. Thanks for watching, bbrownasu!
It's built in feature on most of the American trucks and some SUV's.
Hard sell for me when you consider the Sequoia is similar but much less expensive, at least in the US. Is the landcruiser really worth 35k more than the Sequoia?
Uhh. Hello yeah it is.
Bill Kingman if you want what the land cruiser offers. Many car buys isn’t what you need but what you want. No one needs leather. No one needs a radio in the car. There are many thing no one needs.
You should see the 5.7L ones available for Middle East.
True! the one he is showing in the video is the V8 4.6L, the 5.7L is a beast
Actually, this one was a 5.7L. That's the only engine size available in the U.S., Hamed Al Ansari. Thanks for watching!
AutoAcademics I thought it was 4.5L v8 diesel
@@luxerygt8561 Nope. Diesels aren't very popular in the U.S. so all pretty much all of our expensive vehicles still have V8s.
Great review from a channel new to me. Thank you for taking the time to actually demo some of the features (even as a brief insert) rather than just run through them verbally. Many people may not know what they are. Keep it coming.
Thank you, hughfh. That's why we do it. We review different vehicles every week and are still stumped by some of the features listed on the monroney (window sticker) until we research and figure it out.

This car is so common in Australia. They are everywhere
And in Australia, it has a little brother called Prado.
Still have our land cruiser from ‘99 and it runs like a champ
Nice! Thanks for watching, zeeee!
Love it so much it have everything someone will dream for
i test drove one of these for fun.. amazing! i'm looking to buy one of these soon..price for 2016 below 100K miles $55-65K
TOYOTA Land Cruiser is a real SUV.
Sure is, Seiko Watch. Thanks for watching!
Love this car's reliability and power, but seriously Toyota needs to innovatea little more in the interior (Dashboard) and exterior design that hasn't changed in forever. I have a 2016 model definitely recommend any of them.
How could you do a review of a Toyota Landcruiser and not take it off road?
It's like doing a food review and not taking a taste test.
We would have loved to, walkwitmeh427, but the Land Cruiser is a big vehicle requiring big space to take it off-road. Jeeps...we got you. Rangers...yup, those, too. But a Land Cruiser takes a lot of space and a bit of planning luck that we didn't have. Hope you understand and thanks for watching!
@@AutoAcademics I hear you but you should try to make it happen next time. Your channel would grow if you do.
walkwitmeh427 you’ll find more of these in mall parking lots and on highways than you’ll find off-road. Besides in most places in US there are less and less off road opportunities.
Just came back from NC to NJ. 540 miles. Got 17.3 MPG
Not bad considering its size snd weight. The 08-15 had heavy sheet metal- like my 08 it was a tank. Traded it in at 250k bc of rust and check engine light… definitely undercoat it.
The only down fall of this is mileage.
How ?
@@Kevin-fj5oe Do your own research!
Paratrooperlane
Yes but people who actually afford it, mileage is not an issue for them!
@@TheThornbird21 Gas mileage is the issues, not the miles on the vehicles.
Paratrooperlane

The Land cruiser is incredible indeed, these are in use by some of the most elite U.S. Special forces in some of the most dangerous places in the world.
Very true, Janet Bailey. The U.S. is probably one of the few places where it is outfitted with luxury features. Everywhere else it's just a good off-road vehicle. Thanks for watching!
Janet Bailey land Cruiser is an legendary off-road name for the last 6 decades with unparalleled off-road prowess and amazing reliability.

It's kinda thirsty, otherwise I like it.
It's definitely thirsty, Joe Hammond. But it's great at what it's made for. Thanks for watching!
Now this is my type of review, short, informative and sweet, straight to the point.
I know right?
One day inshallah
Allah doesn't give SUV to people. They themselves have to buy earn or steal

@@luvcrim What makes you so sure? Any scientific evidence?
Even better with the 4.5 twin turbo diesel. Expensive but bulletproof. No wonder the UN use them in the worlds trouble spots.

Awesome Vehicle, I agree. But the price is Scary!, that's why I bought the 4Runner. Also an awesome, rugged, body-on-frame SUV :)
4-Runner is white American man's Land cruiser!
The issue with the land cruiser is its a "luxury offroad SUV" with a price tag of an Escalade or a Navigator. Both of those give you wildly better luxury and on road experience and we damn well know no one buying one of these is taking it offroading. That 4x4 system will be used for snow and thats about it, otherwise might as well come RWD. Same goes for the Gwagen, overpriced, overengineered "luxury offroader" that just hauls the kids to and from school. If Toyota made a land cruiser that was stripped down, vinyl seats, basic climate control, plastic interior, maybe an optional cold weather package that adds heated seats/wheel and cut the price by 30-40% and it may actually return to its former glory. This thing's sales numbers have been way down since 2000, theres a reason. Also that third row design needs to change, either make them fold down like literally everyone else and/or make them removeable.
Also if you never use the third row, this thing trades way too many blows with a 50k grand cherokee, just food for thought
There are hundreds of us using them offroad and for overland travel its one of the most sought after overland platforms in the world. www.pinterest.com/volunteerdad/toyota-land-cruiser/
An excellent review Chris! Thank you!
