4 Month Ownership Review! 2020 Toyota Land Cruiser Heritage Edition! BETTER than the Tundra TRD Pro?
Вставка
- Опубліковано 21 вер 2020
- I was about due to give you guys this ownership review... the last 4 months have flown by and this Land Cruiser Heritage Edition has been PERFECT! From comfort to power... practicality to appeal. We love it!
Do I regret trading in the Army Green Tundra TRD Pro for it? No. Do I genuinely miss the Tundra? Yes.
What are your thoughts?
Stay Untamed!
Just turned 530000 miles on my 2001, owned it since new and love it!
Am I reading that mileage right? Confirm pls!
@@miteshshah8060 yes you are 😂😂
Would like to know what was the biggest maintenance you did on your LC
@@miteshshah8060 532000 as of today
@@firaz9090 I had to replace the transmission at about 300000 but that was my fault, I used it to tow stumps out in reverse and it was asking too much. It failed about 5000 miles after that. The biggest concern where I live is rust. That is an ongoing fight but she still is in fantastic condition. The front left ball joint failed at about 350000 which seems to be a weak spot. I replaced them both at that time. Brake lines and rear ac lines rusted out. Brakes have had a total failure due to corroded lines (front) at 400000. I live in the midwest of the USA and they love salt on the roads. Car is fantastic and if it ever gives up I will get another. It still drives fantastic and I just towed a motorcycle trailer 18 hours with no issues.
This truck is beautiful they are timeless with the Land Cruiser either you get it or you don’t if u don’t it’s ok we’ll carry on without u
Facts! =] 🙏🏼
Exactly!... “Where the money goes to..” to the drive train. Where its needed for reliability. Also for the folks that says the electronics are “dated”, Toyota chose to keep what has been tried and true and battle hardened. Also for those who don’t like the emergency hand brake, I prefer that old style hand brake /parking brake over the new electrics of even over the foot activated styles. In emergencies, you can modulate these by keeping the button pressed to slow down the vehicle. Plus I like the positive engagement feel it gives me. Excellent video. Thanks!
Thanks man. ...and great point with the E-brake! 👌🏻 I have really grown to appreciate everything about this thing. It’s bulletproof for sure!
Well the electronics are more dated than the tacoma and 4runner and Tundra infotainment systems which are all just as reliable. All of them are dated and simple but they could’ve at least put the Apple CarPlay and everything that was updated in the 4runner into the land cruiser since it cost double the price basically. But I could really care less, I have a 2018 4runner without the Apple carplay and I love how simple it is and I don’t really like complicated infotainment systems. Love the big buttons and knobs as well.
"To keep what has been tried and true and battle hardened". And yet... Toyota added a push button start instead of sticking with a key. Sit down, son.
@@Lexman00 dont call me son. Im 30 year Navy Aircraft Maint tech/officer vet and have more time maintaining aircraft and trucks. Think twice before you judge.
I felt it when you said as you’re getting older you start to appreciate the comfort that much more 😂 I’m just about to hit 31 but after daily driving my 1973 Datsun 240Z and my 1993 Audi S4 I finally purchased (just yesterday) a 2015 4 runner limited and man do I love the comfort and peace of mind it provides. Now the other two are definitely more fun to drive but that’s not why you buy a 4Runner. I don’t know why I took me this long to get into a Toyota but I don’t regret it at all.
Haha nice!! Congrats on the new 4Runner. Good move. =]
Cool. My Corolla runs well too. Wtf does that have to do with this video?
Gotta love the married "compromise". It's a beautiful thing. Glad your still happy with the ride.
Haha we all live it... =] it’s fantastic. No ragrets... not a single letter.
You can rest easy knowing your family is safe and sound in a Land Cruiser. That is priceless.
LargeCar Ken Amen to that. I love the piece of mind this rig gives us.
Looks great. Love the KO2’s on there. Just a heads up, NOT the same 5.7 as in the tundra which is made in Alabama. LC 5.7 is made in Japan with almost entirely (allegedly) all Japanese made components, in their flagship plant, assembled by their most skilled workers. Only time will tell on long term reliability but my money is firmly on these Japanese built 5.7’s.
Yes, LC still made in Japan, I guess.
LC are engineered to last 25 yrs, normal cars 12 to 15 yrs.
@@tbeas1555 Engineered to last 25 years in a THIRD world country ;)
@@zoeyharvey3475 you can see land cruisers with 30 years and more in Venezuela and still work like a swiss made watch
Yupp, here in Dubai and all other GCC countries we like our car with VIN number that starts with "J".
Made in Japan is everything you need.
The WSJ just published an article about the Heritage Edition LC. I immediately thought of your channel. Great choice in vehicle even if some people don't "get it." I know your channel is based on switching vehicles frequently, but I hope you keep this one and keep us updated on your ownership experience. I think it's a fantastic rig.
Kevin D. Thanks bud. As mentioned in the video here... both my wife and I absolutely love this LC... we love the look, feel, space, comfort and power. I can’t imagine “upgrading” from this in any way tbh. So it’s safe to stay for the foreseeable future. =]
I have a ‘16. We love it. Only thing we dislike is the touchscreen controls for air conditioning and the lack of updates Toyota gives to the entertainment systems. In general their Navigation unit is weak.
We LOVE this truck. It eats miles. It eats dinosaurs like you said, but it’s so pleasurable to drive long distances.
Also let me give you a list of the problems we’ve experienced since we bought it:
I find it fascinated how people will complain about the price how they will never pay 85K for a Toyota yet the will gladly fork over 90K for a fully loaded Ford F-250.
electrikoptik seriously I wonder why that is... perhaps it’s because a lot of people consider a truck much more functional and for “work” purposes. It’s a vehicle that can make/save them money. Not sure...
@@UntamedMotors the land cruiser is actually almost the only vehicle sold/available on every continents, in Africa for example these are politician cars rich businessmen....
Facts bro. They have a problem with the Toyota price but they think 80k for a Range Rover is “cheap”. And then the Range Rover breaks 3 months LATER.
Toyota’s are so underrated I live in the Middle East where they love them. Funny enough a LC is a status symbol here and they sell like hot cakes
@@alanmay7929 Yeah my uncle is a politician in Kurdistan and you would not believe me what he does with his Land Cruiser, also he got shot at by islamists. They aimed for the tank but thankfully only hit the bumper. Its a 2013 model and is still in use today.
@@gee6395 I love the land cruiser. But I do have a land rover and no problems. Maybe the older land rovers but it's almost 2021. Not 2010.
You just made one of the best decision of your Life my man!
Take care of that beautiful girl.....in ten years, she's going to be worth a lot of $!!!
I wish I could afford one.
You are a very lucky man!!!
*Note*
Way better looking than the new LC-300.
At least in my humble opinion.
Plus, being the last built of this model, She is at her peak of reliability, and durability.
About the price, you're right, it's little High, but, on the other end, if we consider the price of a new "Defender 110"with accessories, you just got a vehicle that would leave the Defender stranded in the middle of the trail, with a Christmas Tree of lights istead of the dashboard.
Final thought.....if you are planning on whelling with this wonder, put some 33s on those amazing wheels, a 2,5 inches "OME" lift, and you will go where the Defender wish it could...
There is only one Land Cruiser. It’s my all time favorite truck. I drive a tundra. But I know there is nothing better than a land cruiser. Never felt safer in bad weather than in a LC.
LargeCar Ken it definitely inspires a ton of confidence... 3 to be precise. =]
Untamed Motors if you get used to it you’ll miss it deeply when you get rid of it.
We pay here 148k for a brand new Land Cruiser and it worth every single cent. Some people just don’t understand but it is no better suv out there 👍🏻
That's a wild price tag! Wow. There isn't anything better. =]
Untamed Motors Yes it is, and still the only one SUV you can run the outback in the day stop by the car wash and go to a red carpet event in the night without any shame. People here buy them over the BMWs, Mercedes GL series, Audi Q series, Jaguars and Range rovers which are cheaper. Only market rival is the G-Class. You get a 4,5 liter twin turbo Diesel V8 engine and a ton of reliability and heritage. There is a saying here regarding The land Cruiser translated it says more or less this: “For the ones who don’t change with the success” basically it means the Cruiser is for people who work hard but when are successful don’t try to look fancy with European or US cars and just keep using the reliable and practical brand they used from the beginning when they started. Usually this is accompanied by an add showing a young guy receiving the keys of an old fj40 and starting to work with it on a farm and growing on business with a few hilux trucks, later some Hino bigger trucks and later more mature receiving the keys of a LC200 to go to a big meeting and receiving a production award. If I can find the add will send you the link. 😁 hopefully will have my first 100 series by December 😁 and hope to meke the jump a few years later to a 300 series.
@@humbertorubi2735 where do you live?

The Lexus version is better
I did the same thing I had a 2017 Tundra TRD Pro cement gray and traded in for a 2017 LC, no regrets. Love the LC.
You’re a good man. =]
nah, 100% good trade. being able to seat 4 adults comfortably is a huge plus.
The Crew Cab Tundra is known as the limousine of pick-up trucks. Lots of room for 4 adults.
I have a 2015 and one of my neighbors got 2020 heritage edition in black, just like yours. It looks awesome!!
Nice! Sounds like you all have great taste on that block. Do I need to move in next door? lol.
Untamed Motors you might already be close by. By the way, if you are looking to sell your LC wheels or Tundra wheels, please let me know. Thanks!
Beadlocks, ARB front, rear bumper and rock sliders and some round lights this baby is gon look bomb👌
Those bronze wheels with the aggressive treads and white lettering look beautiful! I love the Land Cruiser. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for watching. =] appreciate the support.
On my Cruiser.. I put some 3.0 King Shocks, Total Chaos UCA’s, and 275/70/R18..giving it a 3 inch lift. GREATNESS!!!!!!
Texas Guy damn I bet it rides amazing and looks great! Nice work. Though I’d like the front end to be level with the rear, I really enjoy the ride of this HE.
@@rickroel4994 Well I was born and raised in Denver, then moved to TX.....sooooooooooooooo
@@UntamedMotors It’s amazing ride and look. I kept the factory wheels as well. Next project is to add the Total Chaos lower control arms, then she’s done.😀
Great review and great looking LC! We bought our used 2013 LC last year and we absolutely love it! I wish the gas mileage was better or they had the larger gas tanks like they have in the rest of the world. The LC has always been my dream car and I’m so grateful to own one. We’ve always kept our vehicles for at least 10 years and the LC is the only vehicle I wouldn’t think twice about buying new for $90,000 because I know we’d keep it for many years. I think my favorite things in it are the super cold A/C and the fridge in the center console which is sad they don’t put in the Heritage Edition. If you get tired of those cup holders, there’s a guy on Etsy that makes 3D printed cup holder replacements that hold a standard can/cup and a Hydroflask. It was probably my best mod on mine. Getting the factory front coil spacers installed will also fix that front end rake and make it look a little better especially with those TKO’s.
I appreciate the recommendations for the cup holders and coils. Thank you. When it comes to the LC, you either get it or you don't... It's an absolute tank, in and out. =] ...and yeah, I wish they had kept the mini fridge, that would have been sweet.
So cool. My best mod was the slurpee system I installed. I’m thinking about putting a snow machine that shoots snow out in front of me as a I drive. I hope it impress’s anyone who gets in. I’ll look into the cup holder replacements though.
“I wanted it and my wife wanted it so we compromised and gave it to my wife” perfect summary of marriage LOL
Haha yup!!
The wife reading his reply 👁👄👁
Happy wife = Happy Lyfe 😅
I read that Toyota will be pulling out of USA for the landcruiser. This will be the last generation here. It will hold its value even longer.
Likely saying that to drive sales
@@weirdshibainu nah, Toyota doesn’t play those games
Cause they must meet a new minuim MPG average for the company .
@@petet-rex5589 sadly the diesel engines may have been able to solve that issue especially by now they would have had time to solve any emission hurdles but I'm likely wrong since the company has likely done decades of studies to guide their decisions
Yeah, the LC200 will be the last Land Cruiser in the U.S.
For the LC300 coming in 2021 they will only bring the Lexus LX variant to the U.S. which is basically same underneath the fancier looks.
Love this vehicle. I have a 4Runner TRD Pro. I was first attracted to them because of their off road capabilities and reliability. I know I kind of had to aquire a taste for the design/looks of the 4R, Sequoia, LC, but now that I have I absolutely love them.
I bought my 1st Landcruiser new in 95’ and traded it in when the new one came out in 98’.It only has 97,122 miles on it and the only thing that has broken is I’m guessing the little lightbulb behind the D near the transmission lever.I’ve replaced parts due to wear,but that’s it.Toyota Landcruisers are absolutely bulletproof and the only vehicle I believe I will ever drive.
The vehicle is outstanding, the bronze wheels and KO2's great look if the car makes you happy that is all you can ask for enjoy thanks for the update
💯 Thanks bud =]
This really has been the best all around vehicle we’ve had! It’s perfect imo.
Glad to see you love it!! The walk away and look back and smile test always reveals the truth on whether you made the right purchase.
Thanks man. Haha amen to that!
Well let me say, being that the Land Cruiser is about to be out of production and the LC is Mad Max bulletproof, you probably made a good investment. If you keep it of course
i agree, this guy can drive the hell out of this thing and it'll retain it's value pretty well.
I have the Army Green Trd Pro 4runner and I enjoy it alot, but maaan I love that land cruiser bro. I could imagine it being like my 4runner but on steroids because of the size and that power. I also have an older 2010 tundra with the 5.7, and just imagining the 5.7 power on that SUV must be great
Hector Nice man! I sometimes miss the 4Runner -I had an Army Green one too before this... it was a stunning rig! Great taste. This takes everything that was and beefed up every element. =]
I think its "dated" look is part of its charm, kind of like a factory built restomod. It is a handsome and rugged vehicle. Good purchase, price is fine.
Nice content.
Thanks for this video. I sold my 2013 Land Rover LR4 (built up) for a 2018 Land Cruiser and never looked back. I did love my Land Rover, but it just was not aging how I wanted as far as reliability. I had many great overland trips in the Land Rover, but I needed something more reliable. After doing a lot of research, I decided on the Land Cruiser. I also have the BFG A/T KO2s. I get a lot of questions comparing the LR4 to the LC200, but it all depends on your needs. I loved my LR4, but I love and respect the LC200! I don’t see myself ever selling it and I feel confident that it will last for many years.
Awesome man! Glad to hear you’re loving your land cruiser. They truly are bulletproof machines huh? Putting KO2s on them makes you feel as though you could go literally anywhere hah. 👌🏻
@@UntamedMotors I agree, they are bulletproof tanks. They are also dinosaurs, which is why some people just can’t justify the price, but they are truly an investment. I could care less about the new technology, I love the iconic old-school design! Best of luck!
Thanks for this video! Figured I'd watch a bunch of owner reviews coz we're planning to get a Land Cruiser. (Either the LC 300 ZX or an 2019-2021 LC 200 VX.)
Heck yeah man. You’re going to love it 👌
When are you thinking about buying?
I really like the Bronze wheels with Black.
Sterling Pilgrim thanks man... they definitely go well together huh? =] 🙏🏼
You have impeccable taste in vehicles, pal.
If it were my world I would have kept the Tundra and bought a Land Cruiser anyway haha.
The Japanese 5.7 is just as reliable as the Alabama made one. There's no way Toyota will sign of on production unless they met the standards. We can't get the LC in canada so the Tundra is the closest I could get when it comes to drive train and reliability.
Waimea Canyon Blues Thanks a lot man, I appreciate that! I’m with you. The 5.7L is the same beast just assembled a little differently. I miss my Tundra everyday tbh. That was the perfect truck... size, space inside, power, sound and easy to drive. (Amazing turn radius still baffles me lol).
I appreciate the comment man. =]
LC's are awesome; own a '14 Lexus LC 570 ... going to keep it forever
Great vid as always brother ,agreed on the Tundra for the back seat room ,nothing compares. LC is a unique suv with a price to go along with ,but i like it .
Troy Hasty Thanks bud. Appreciate your positivity as always! This thing is definitely a tank. =]
Love your videos. Your knowledge of Toyota's is amazing. The HE is a worthy companion for someone who loves Toyotas.
Thank you, I have a lot to learn still... but I appreciate that! =]
I want this bad boy. But my wife wanted the 2020 sequoia TRD PRO so that’s what we have and love it. My parents had a 84 FJ Landcruiser when I was a boy and I’ve wanted on ever since.
This and the sequoia are both excellent choices... congrats! Both are bulletproof. It’s a shame Toyota is doing away with the LC for the US market. =\
You say it's hard to pull the trigger due to price but when you look at the competition like Range Rover and maybe a BMW X7, those two will last until their warranty runs out and then start to fall apart. They won't even get close to 200k miles without shoveling your wallet into them.. you made the absolute right call that SUV has the potential to take you to 500k+ miles original engine and transmission. Enjoy!
I cannot wait to buy one in 10 yrs when i can actually afford it they are so badass glad you're enjoying it
They’ll be equally cool and just as reliable then I’m sure. =]
I HATE! when ppl compare this to a Sequoia... NO COMPARISON!!!
Or ask me why I didn't get a Sequoia instead?
In my mind, I'm like... GTFOH!!! But, I just tell them, it's just too big...
Btw, I get good miliage...19-20 on the highway, 14-15 street.
AMEN, on the door dings and about looking back at it. My LC sits on my driveway 80% of the time, but I'm always in awe, when I look at it.
I own a 2013 and it’s definitely a tank. Hope to make it to a million miles
The LC has been an iconic vehicle for decades, many people grew up with it and learned to drive in it, that alone justifies the price in my opinion, there’s no other suv like that one
Agustin well said! 👌🏻 no other vehicle had the heritage of the LC. =] (maybe the Jeep but even that has been bought out by FCA and changed a ton...)
Untamed Motors yes exactly!
i have literally never met a single person that has owned one...
latinbeandip Neither have I and I own one 😂 I’ve only seen 3 LC 200’s on the road since purchasing mine last year. They’re very rare in the US.
They’re really expensive for an suv from Toyota so yes they are rare, but worth every penny in my opinion, they sell better in Australia and Dubai though
The LC is the best car Toyota makes, now dollar per dollar the tundra is just as good, on the tundra the driver and passenger seat are wider and the back seat is super comfortable for those who like the extra room. If you can have both is great, is always good to have a pick up at home. You always keep referring to the space of the tundra, it seems you still not over the TRD Pro.
Interesting that you didn't like the rear portion of the car and how it looked 2008. I'd argue that I appreciate that styling cue and how it stayed the same vs everyone looking the same in today's market. Regardless, beautiful truck that will be enjoyed for decades, whether under you or future owners
I also trade in my 1793 edition Tundra for this black heritage edition Land Cruiser, really much better I feel
Congrats man! The LC is next level for sure. If I didn’t need the huge backseat space for my 3 munchkins and the bed on occasion I would have kept the LC here... but I went back and got a 21 Tundra TRD Pro. 😬
The 4Runner Limited has taken the place of the Land Cruiser in the US. Which is a good thing.
It may not be quite as stout here and there, however, it is better looking and has the same performance.
Every door on BMW'S have the keyless lock/unlock. It is super handy to not have to go to the front doors if you just need in the back! Glad Toyota did that on the Land Cruiser!
Agreed. This was a nice touch and certainly a must have at $89K lol. =]
Did you look into the 2020 Toyota Sequoia TRD Pro? I think the Sequoia looks awesome in army green
I like the new headlights on the sequoia but those taillights are just too bubbly for my liking... I always liked them but never enough to want. But you’re right, they look fantastic in the AG. 👌🏻
Brooklyn in The Rare old Times greedy stealerships are the worst. Just cause you can doesn’t mean you should... just my opinion...
The leather comment on the seats is a fair point. I have a 2018 Tundra Platinum and its seat's leather is much better than the Tundra Limited
I think it’s a good choice you made. Land cruiser last longer with great off road and daily using ability
Thank you! Amen to that =]
I traded my 2011 Tundra for a 2020 Lexus GX. Land Cruiser and LX were out of my price range. I love the GX but those Land Cruisers are great!
The GX is solid as hell too!! Congrats.
I live I south Africa I have a land cruiser and my dad also we also have a hilux we have only owned Toyota and can not go wrong with it
The quality of the interior of the LC is definitely high end. Wish my Tundra had the medal handle for the door inside instead of the cheap plastic.
It’s obvious the second you sit in one -for sure! Pictures and video don’t really do the interior any justice...
In my country, the LC is the car of high ranking officials and rich folks. 99 percent of them will never be used for offroading.
will still be running at your grandsons retirement party!!!
Michael Kastner Facts! =]
Had a 2008 Land Cruiser and just traded for a 2021 Heritage Edition in Silver. I love Land Cruisers, and while I was waiting for Toyota to update the LC, I love some of the old school features of this model. Real gauges with a simple touch screen that is very intuitive and simple to use. Very comfortable interior and great ride. Handling is truly awesome, and looking out over the hood is one of the best parts of this vehicle. Yes, the gas mileage sucks, but we all know that is part of a Land Cruiser. Shame Toyota won't bring a diesel to the US market.
Yes, the handling is truly awesome 😂
I appreciate your detailed explanation etc. but no need to justify this purchase! This is a VERY smart car and bad ass, too.
Congratulations for your new car
I’m trining to find out how much is it out the door with no additional warranty
The appearance of that car is legendary. Like a lion coming from savana. The eyes an the face is so masculine. Anyways congratulations for your good decision.
Agreed! =] Well said.
Thanks bud.
Land Cruisers are for connoisseurs.....they are special. As far as price...the competition has caught up. A new Denali is 80k plus!....In 10 years a new Navigator will be sitting on a used car lot with a check engine light on, and half the “technology” broke or not working... The Land Cruiser will just be breaking in!😎
A.F.S. Amen to that! 🙏🏼
Gosh, I love your rig! Almost bought one several months ago behind wife’s back... I’m sure it would cost me a marriage.
Haha do it!!! =] she’ll love it.
I own a 2018TLC and am getting 17.2mpg combined.I drive 75+mph on the Hgwy. The secret is just don't tromp it off the line.It's tough to resist the growl of the massive V8,but ,if you can, the gas mileage is not all that bad. A couple of miles a gallon less than a full size American pickup is the price that you pay for a vehicle you will leave to your grandkids and will be the last car running after the apocalypse.
The Land Cruiser is really amazing vehicle in every conceivable way. Powerful, comfortable, very quiet at highway speed, competent off-road, makes you feel safe and special, has lots of road presence but blends in. It also gets absolutely abysmal gas mileage and fuel range. I got tired of not even getting 300 miles to a 25 gallon tank, and sold it less than a year later. With a small 1" lift, K02 tires +1 up in size, and rock rails, I got a combined 12.5mpg. Just F*@%ing horrible.
Yep, my biggest gripe is the small fuel tank. Also, the distance to empty is way off...with 0 miles the most i've been able to fill up is 21.5 gal
Your loss.
I have a 2008 Land Cruiser with 275,000 miles. I take it off road and really beat the hell out of it. I have owned Land Cruisers in the US and Pakistan, both countries where I reside. The 2008 model I have in the US has by far outlasted all the other cars that I own. There is nothing quite like the Land Cruiser. It does everything.
My 1997 80 series is still going strong... back when LCs cost only 57k lol
I have a 2017 TRD off road premium and a 2013 Audi RS5. I’m looking into one of these gen land cruisers and then leasing a cayman GTS since they are discontinuing the gas caymans. Do you guys prefer these a lot over the 4Runners?
the NAME say it all !!!
it will be sad if Toyota stop making the Landcruiser 💪💪💪💪💪💪🙏🙏🙏🙏
Amen to that!
The actual seating surface of the 19/20 Tundra TRD PRO is leather. The seats of the 4Runner TRD PRO are "SofTex" which is plastic.
That would make sense. Thank you for the clarification. 👌🏻
I would definitely get the front grill and the roof racks powder coated in the same colour as the wheels. And the badging at the back too.
That’d definitely give it a unique look. 👌🏻
I agree nobody talks about the lack of headroom in the T4R. I wanted the 4runner limited trim and ended up with GX460 with way more headroom. Man i wish i could buy those bronze bbs forged wheels. Toyota wants a Land Cruiser heritage vin number in order to purchase.
GX460 is a sweet option, congrats man! I must admit though... as an owner of the LC Heritage Edition, I could appreciate Toyota protecting the exclusivity of the wheels...
@@UntamedMotors they should make exception on those wheels to GX owners. I mean we are little brother ( baby land cruiser). Lol
Additionally...personally I think you are a guy who just enjoys buying and trading vehicles and experiencing all different vehicles. Nothing wrong with that. Do what you like and don't let others sway you and just claim it!
Why did you remove the roof rack? And how do you like the added side steps?
Are you happy with the KO2's? I have had mine for about a year now (same exact car, black 2020 LC HE), and have been thinking about getting a set.
Yeah, I’m a huge fan of them. They handle great on and off road and look the part. Much more fitting for the HE. =]
@@UntamedMotors Awesome! I agree they are fitting for the HE! It is almost snow season, so I think I'm going to have to go get a set. Thank you! 33's?
@@blakereynolds2936 I went slightly bigger than stock. Stock is 285/60/18 if I recall correctly... I went 285/65/18.
I posted video of them when I got them -feel free to check it out.
That's a lot of complaining of a vehicle you love. A 4runner is no where near a LC. LC's are expensive but that's what they are a very high quality, upper class vehicle like a Range Rover, Jaguar, BWM, Mercedes. All those easily $100k+ .
You even stated that you can tell the difference in the seat leather from Tundra Pro to this LC Heritage and that's only one example.
You bought and awesome vehicle!
I know a guy who traded in his 2020 LC Heritage for a 2020 Land Rover Defender 110. No idea why someone would do such a thing.
I'd love you see you remove the running boards and lift/level it a tiny bit. It would look so goood oh and DELETE THAT CHROME!!
Chrome delete... yes. Side steps are actually rock sliders -I put them on. Need them with kiddos. =\ I love that new defender but not enough to trade in the glorious LC!
What size Ko2's do you have on it?
Can those wheels fit my 2009 RAV4 limited lol? Serious question! I love they way they look!
swpdisciple hah unfortunately not... =\ I’m sorry. They are sweet.
There is a reason why the land crusier has an MSRP of 90K and the TRD pro has an MSRP of 57K, LC hands down will last longer! Love the tundra, but the LC will last! Good move sir!
Thanks man! Yeah the price tag stings but it's not by accident on Toyota's behalf... =]
this model will be replaced soon, likely next year. If it goes the Discovery route and as we heard the V8 will be obsolete, then this car will hold it price and becomes a collectible.
Not necessarily. If the new twin turbo V6 has like 100hp+ more and way better MPG, the value of the V8 trucks will decrease quite a bit compared to if they just kept the V8 for another decade. It's also rumored that top spec models will have a hybrid version of the V6 for more range (like the ford PowerBoost).
@@NytronX 80s LC are selling for nearly $20k$ and there's a ton of things improved on the new ones. LCs will hold their value extremely well no matter what improvements are on the newer versions
btw, it is not the same 5.7L V8. Land Cruiser is fully assembled in Japan, and the engine block is internally scanned for defects. Every component qc is to the highest standard.
Dang that’s awesome. 👌🏻 the Merica ones do just as good by the looks of it though!
@@UntamedMotors Land Cruiser is just the very best manufactured version of the 5.7 possible. Defects and imperfection rejection rate, and assembly standard is much higher.
@@eto2352 I believe it. It’s a shame they’re discontinuing this beast... =\
That thing is awesome I would not have got black thought...but to each his own.
Thanks man. Yeah black cars aren’t good for my OCD lol... micro scratches for days! I prefer white but I refuse to get a Pearl white (yellowish white) and that was the only other option for the heritage in 2020. =\
My gripe is it’s too expensive to actually drive off road
Something is so cool about the stealth wealth of the land cruiser though. 99% of people probably think its a highlander/crossover lol. But the ones who know, know! Are those 31" tires?
CodiTheJedi haha oh yeah you got that right. Easily mistaken for a $40K highlander... They are 31-32in. 285/70/18. Love the KO2s!!
You’re absolutely right. Everyone seems to think mine’s a Sequoia or Highlander. We were at a coffee shop drive thru one day on our way to go off-roading and the barista asked what we had planned that day. I said going to the desert for some off-roading and she said “in that?”
32 years of LC development and my 60 and your 200 gets the same mileage. Of course yours will move around a bit better, the 2f in the 60’s makes old Honda Civic HP.
Haha they never sacrificed reliability for fuel efficiency 👌🏻
@@UntamedMotors you know you can have both, right?
@@D0praise yep.
If I could get one with a 6 speed manual transmission and I had the money, I'd be all in.
John Ossendorf a 6sp manual would be awesome!
@@UntamedMotors RIGHT !!!!!! I had an 07 FJ with the 6 speed, ful-ltime 4WD, A-Trac and selectable rear locker. It was AWESOME !!! I regret Selling it ! That being said, I don't regret buying my 2010 6 speed TRD Offroad 4 door Tacoma !
that is ONE THING i measure ALL VEHICLES with...
I fear Toyota SUV...and especially the LC200 will go the way of the rest....too many electronics...and the worst thing is having a rotary gear selector...WTF is that ?
Awesome review!! Thanks for sharing!!
My pleasure, thank you!
Wow dude i just started watching your videos since i love toyotas especially thier trucks, WHAT DO YOU DO TO BE ABLE TO AFFORD ALL THESE NICE TRUCKS ? Congrats and nice collection
Great LC! Don’t sell it! Congrats on your 4 month ownership! 👍🏼
haritz2007 Thanks man! 🙏🏼
What size KO2's did you go with? Im about to put some on my 2019 and seems most there is a split between 285/65 and 275/70.
I went with 285/65 on my 2018 and could not be happier. Based on calculations from the forums, you run them all at 42psi and it’s perfect.
Yours just went up in price my friend. Toyota is canceling it in the USA. Congratulations for such an amazing vehicle.
The Land Cruiser def is a nice upscale SUV. I just don't see $90K there....
Yeah it’s tough to justify for sure.
the justification is that it will last longer than any 90k SUV out there.
@@Baebon6259 so will a 40k Runner
@@freeravenadventures6925 sure thing for mid-size SUV, 4runner got it. However, LC got full-size SUV.
@@Baebon6259 Thank you for enlightening these gentlemen, the uploader will never need to replace his land cruiser.
What up man .... I bought a 2021 Heritage a while back and just about due for new tires. It came with the Dunlops on there and I am not a fan. Thinking about the KO2s ..... I have been looking in land cruiser forums but I cant find a straight answer .... do those KO2s require any lift, to cut the front mud guards, or do they rub at all as is ???
No modifications whatsoever are needed for these exact KO2s 👍
Awesome review and insight… love this rig. You have great taste.
To each his own. You have a vehicle that will last you a lifetime. Nice review.
Thanks bud!
if someone wanted the same vehicle...
Best purchase ever! Keep her forever brother!
With k02s what is the noise level like when driving down highway.
It’s actually very quiet. Hardly notice the noise.
If and when you wanna sell it, let me know. I'm not kidding!
Why not just buy your own ??
@@kashsattar2066 couldn't find one anywhere!
I love the Heritage land cruiser. But man that price tag is crazy
The dent in the bonnet put me off buying one. Purchased a Range Rover Sport HSE SDV8 instead. No regrets.
Love that 200... writing is on the wall for the Tacoma-can’t wait to see the replacement
Lol. It’s just a matter of time I suppose... hah
i prefer the split hatch vs the 4runner's window which collects a lot of muck and grime
Same here. Split hatch is definitely the way to go. 👌🏻
Did you look into the Lexus version at all?
I did. It’s an amazing rig just not as “exclusive” and rugged as the LC.
