Got the new LC yesterday. Drove it 250 for 22.9 mixed mpg. Can’t believe how power vs my Trd pro 4runner. Both awesome but the new LC is really nice. I was skeptical of the 4 cylinder but now that I have it’s a big improvement . Has way more get up and go and transitions so smoothly when it kicks into passing etc. I basically bought site unseen months back via an order and am really pleased with the buy. Quality of interior and ride is exceptional.
Great job on the video Jon! Thanks for making it. Out here in Las Vegas, sunlight is a real problem. It always seems to be in your eye. I still have the tint that the dealership put on when I bought it which was flaking within 2 years. NV law says 35% in the front, and only above the AS-1 line on the windshield can be tinted. But the rear windows can be as dark as they want. Only reason I would want to go darker is for the heat rejection. It hit 120 in the city the other day, and my car sits out in the sun if I'm at work.
I was complaining about the $280 that I paid for ceramic window tint in my Tundra, some things are still inexpensive in Puerto Rico when compared to the states
I saw you driving passing the Krispy Kreme. It was around lunchtime, so they must have been fast. And your tint looked great. I could tell it was you by the hat silhouette.
Just spent $490 for tint on my Mazda CX 50 today lol Suntek CXP 70% windshield, 18% front doors, 5% 2nd row and back row windows. Feels like a cave. Very, very good heat rejection Vegas.
Indiana registration is on the pricy side. My 22 Ram Rebel was about 600 bucks new...last year is was in the mid 400s. Also, dont feel to bad about the brakes. My ram was 70ish and the brakes have squeaked in reverse since new. Tech said pads arnt chamfered from factory, so the vibrate..
If,I,get tinted what windows and what is the percent or what ever they rate them at should I get? Did you do the back window? Does it have any impact of seeing at night?
Hot damn yall are suffering with these prices... i had an independant guy do a full surround with windshield for $320 in texas... support small businesses! Edit: watching these guys do comparisons and advice, definitely worth the price. Even though i wouldnt pay it
Register the 2.8 in Belgium is €13500,00. Yes, you read it right... thirteenthousandfivehundred euros. €1500.00 roadtax every year. Fifteenhundred that is. Belgium wants to save the climate by reducing the amount of heavy fuelled cars.
When I did my 4Runner. I did 30 in the front to match and 70 for rear in the same tint you just did. It definitely makes a difference. Nice truck Jon, looking good. Do you like the Land Cruiser better than the Sequoia you had?
Imo, way too dark for off-roading or camping especially for night runs. Nano ceramic will reject most IR heat even with a high light transmission percentage.
My 2020 4runner ORP and my 2021 rav4, I tinted them in 20% over the factory tint with ceramic tint and a 5% tint front window strip. Ceramic is the way to go. I've been tinting all my vehicles since 1992, the ceramic is by far the best. I've been pulled over 1 time for tint out of all my vehicles since 1992. I think it was in 2019 on my 2004 4runner that I still have. I paid the $40 ticket back then and called it a day 🙂🤣😕
Hi Jon, How was the squealing brake issue in reverse resolved on your LC? My LC started doing this a couple of weeks ago… so annoying. Would appreciate your help on this. TKU
I’m in Colorado and my LC arrives in a couple weeks. 1st year registration will be about $1,200, 2nd year about $850 and it keeps going down each year.
JON love your LC with the Heritage blue. You said you're going to switch from using premium gas to regular gas. Did you find out any information that's it's ok to make the switch with gas grades.
Lexus or Landcruiser..... Landcruiser, saw your vid...I also like the physical buttons on interior. My GH came with acoustic glass, the LC should have come with it
what an amazing truck, always dreamed of this truck coming at new price point, i messaged them about this 8 year ago. Good to hear they listened !! The tint looks remarkable
Hey Jon I am very pleased to hear that you're going to try regular gas please please let us know how it does and if it affects the gas mileage or the way it runs. this is great news! Jim
@@archbold1206 I agree, but I did cancel my deposit but that's okay my dealership has several on the lot right now so if I want an LC, i can still get one but hoping it can run on regular without problems
My GX 550 in Colorado is $1600............ I think you do have to look at the bigger picture of all taxes you pay, Denver has low property tax which helps offset it if you are a home owner.
Hey Jon, I just brought home my new Land Cruiser and hear a very high pitched noise ringing/whistling from inside the cabin. It shuts off when I’m stopped but resumes when I let off the brake. Do you hear this in yours? My dealer said it’s normal and it’s the hybrid engine but it seems almost unbearable to me
Ugh I have a love hate relationship with tinting. It looks so damn good but I drive a lot at night and I can’t stand driving overly tinted vehicles at night.
Question: Does new LC have a dog mode? Can you leave AC running when car is completely off? Toyota rep didn’t know the answer. I knew more about the LC than he did. ha. Can't find the answer. Been hours searching. Could use some help. I have a 2007 LC Overlander and a Tesla Model Y daily driver with “Dog Mode”. I can leave my dog inside the Tesla with AC as long as battery is above 20%. Works great. Bought the car just for this feature. My dog is that important. Based on your recent videos. I like the new LC. Would be willing to trade my old LC and Tesla for a new LC. Only if the new LC has a dog mode feature. It’s a dealbreaker without. I would take my dog everywhere if new LC had a bullet proof Dog Mode feature. I was thinking the hybrid battery pack would allow the car to be turned off with the AC running cold air just like my Tesla. I wish Toyota would market dog mode also. Anyway… big help if you can answer this definitively. I bet if you made a video on this subject. It would get a lot of views. Only reason I bought a Tesla was dog mode. If LC had dog mode. I would much rather drive a LC. My guess is new LC doesn't offer this or the AC turns off without notification. My Tesla notifies me and also has a webcam for me to check on dog. Thank you very much!
Just tinted my wife's new camry for $199 and I thought that was expensive. I got a call to pick up vehicle and they said the tech accidentally used ceramic tint so I got a free upgrade.
Just a heads up Florida statute doesn’t fully allow for any tinting on the windshield. Obviously there are exceptions blah blah blah and nothing would probably happen if taken to court but catch the wrong LEO on the wrong day etc and they could write it. Doesn’t mean any thing would happen with it but wanted to give you the heads up.
Life in Florida is TOUGH without tint. I just bought a 2023 4runner with dark Llumar ceramic tint courtesy of the previous owner, and I'm stoked
Ah dude, can't live without it!
I got a 2018 4runner and added llumar ceramic tint. Went with 20% looks great and don't feel the heat anymore never looked back. Lol

Okay... That tint looks sweet. Plus, it provides practical benefits. Having the right tint is always a win-win.
Completely agree man!
Looks nice ! I did my 4 runner in 5 % on the back … 20%front and 35% windshield
NICE!

Man that is a scocher!!!!
The reverse brake squeal sounds exactly like the Tundra brake squeal. There is a TSB for it now.
Definitely a dream to get one of these one day. Ever since I rode in the 80 series as a 14 yr old I was yes sir this is for me!
I hope you are able to! Keep that vision focused and execute on it my friend!
I was complaining about the $280 that I paid for ceramic window tint in my Tundra, some things are still inexpensive in Puerto Rico when compared to the states
Thats nice!
i got 5 percent all the way around for my nightshade 4runner. it really brought it all together
Nice Tint, are you gonna do the PPF on the LC ?
I am not. It already has some up front.
I saw you driving passing the Krispy Kreme. It was around lunchtime, so they must have been fast.
And your tint looked great. I could tell it was you by the hat silhouette.
Hahaha nice bro! Yea man they were fast!
Just spent $490 for tint on my Mazda CX 50 today lol Suntek CXP
70% windshield, 18% front doors, 5% 2nd row and back row windows. Feels like a cave. Very, very good heat rejection Vegas.
Nice man! Yea it's needed in Vegas for sure!!
Beautiful ride. Thank you for your continued support Jon. 🙏😎
Thank you too! Ya'll's work was awesome as always!!!!
Good timing. Getting my 4Runner tinted Saturday and wasn’t sure what to get. LC looking great!
Heck ya! There you go. Just have the shop meter it for you if possible and make sure it’s ceramic if you want the best heat reduction.
My registration for my 20 Tacoma Trd off-road this year was $220 in Highlands Ranch, Colorado. It goes down every year.
Nice!
My 2023 4Runner was about $720 last year for registration in Az
ooooooof bro!

WTH man, is that just the norm now with $70K vehicles??
hi , the tint shops , tats are amazing. did anyone notice his arms?
If,I,get tinted what windows and what is the percent or what ever they rate them at should I get?
Did you do the back window? Does it have any impact of seeing at night?
I would hate to have to replace the windshield due to a rock chip (especially due to the rake of that windshield) and then have to redo the tint.
Yea it would suck for sure. Hopefully insurance would cover it but I doubt it

In Michigan it's about $200 or you can pay $400 and it be good for 2. years vs 1 year

Finally you got your license plate 👍 Your window tints looks good.
Yes! Thank you!!
That tint looks great. I am in Iowa, so I know nothing about that heat. Makes sense.
Very cool!
Imo, way too dark for off-roading or camping especially for night runs. Nano ceramic will reject most IR heat even with a high light transmission percentage.
AZ registration in PHX is brutal; $1200 for our Yukon XL Denali
God bless…..that’s wild
Oh the tint makes all the difference.
That LC is nice.
50 a year for the state here in Idaho.
Thanks man! Solid price dude for reg!
I got my windows tinted there while at Eglin AFB!
Heck ya man! Small world!
Be anxious to see how these windshields hold up. Had a wrangler and that dang thing caught rocks all day long!!!!
Yea there is already a chip from god knows where.
Sprinter vans encounter the same thing, rock chips constantly
How do you see out the windows at night with tint? I can't see anything at night with it

Nebraska. $650 renewal for my 2022 Ford Bronco. They call NE “the tax me state.”
Your property taxes are high too right?
@@TRDJon $11,000 a year on a home valued under $500k.

Good ol west coast states haha. Many thats alot!
Does the high registration fees cover not having toll roads? When I visited Florida, the tolls were brutal.
No, to tolls cover the toll roads. Depends where you visited. The ones near me are pretty nice.
@@TRDJon We were in the Miami area. Just looked up your next of the woods, and maybe next time we'll vacation over there!
Oh yea Miami is......unique hahah
What happened to your big wheels and tires? Set 'em aside of off-road excursions?
Waiting for some suspension to come in at the moment but I also needed lugnuts
Love the tint on the LC. why is there no longer any ditch lights on the 4Runner?
I only have some RGB ones in the past, I grew up haha. I just never took the brackets off
Sick tint man !!!!!!!! Love it
Thanks bro!
JON love your LC with the Heritage blue. You said you're going to switch from using premium gas to regular gas. Did you find out any information that's it's ok to make the switch with gas grades.
In FL are you allowed to tint everything? In doodoo CA, We can only tint rear window and rear passenger windows :(
You can tint the fronts here just not the windshield. But cops don’t seem to care
Looks great! Will be tinting in Texas.
Arizona will likely be $900 per year to register
When I lived there I was military so it wasn't horrible. I always did out of state exemption. But man, thats $$$
Lexus or Landcruiser..... Landcruiser, saw your vid...I also like the physical buttons on interior. My GH came with acoustic glass, the LC should have come with it
80 dollars for registration in Texas.
YESSIR!
I've definitely seen you around down here in Destin. I just drove the Black 1958 this weekend at Toyota FWB
What did you think about it?
@@TRDJon Big fan! Need to compare with the GX550 before pulling the trigger, but Mobile isn't a short trek
Make it a buc-ees trip hahah
Registration part was hilarious 😂😂 great content as always Jon !
Hahahahah I appreciate you bro!!!
Jon, did they have to remove door panels to install the window tint?
No they did not
did you tint the rear too (tail gate)? at what %?
I did yes. I think it was 30%
Land Cruiser. About 1000 in Wa St.
what an amazing truck, always dreamed of this truck coming at new price point, i messaged them about this 8 year ago. Good to hear they listened !!
The tint looks remarkable
Thanks so much man!!!
Looks great! 👌🏼
Thanks man
John don’t do regular gas I asked around and it may not be good for the engine.
Hey Jon I am very pleased to hear that you're going to try regular gas please please let us know how it does and if it affects the gas mileage or the way it runs. this is great news! Jim
Will do sir!!!
@@TRDJon this is why I call you 'Da TRD Man' !!
I second this. The premium requirement almost made me cancel my deposit.
@@archbold1206 I agree, but I did cancel my deposit but that's okay my dealership has several on the lot right now so if I want an LC, i can still get one but hoping it can run on regular without problems
@@JSBowling2011 Where are you? We can't get them in the PNW!
Is it first edition trim ?
Yessir
How ya feeling now after a couple of weeks? Hoping to do a similar tint here in Kentucky. Happy with it at night?
Love it! No bubbles either
Jon isn't that squeaking noise when you're reverse the warning sound in case there's little kids back there or people?
Not that I am aware of, it sounds like the breaks are squeking badddddd
86 bucks in Oregon, that’s for two years!!
Love the blue.
My GX 550 in Colorado is $1600............ I think you do have to look at the bigger picture of all taxes you pay, Denver has low property tax which helps offset it if you are a home owner.
I suppose. But also we don’t have state income tax. I’m sure a lot will offset over time for sure if we really wanna see where the $$$ is at.
Colorado kills you on the insurance for car and home.
@trdjon Thanks for the @maascoffeedestin mention!!!!! We love watching you channel!!
Oh yes!!!! So good!!! Appreciate you all!!!
in CA, i paid 670 for my 4 door wrangler.... donations are encouraged :)
oooooooh bro hahahaha. Thats insane! Sorry I thought you were talking about the film for my first response.
i think i paid about 200 for my window tint. limo tint in the back and 20% in the front. i guess theres the offset ha
i just paid 500 for my 2017 4 runner. I am in LA

so u can put REGULAR GAS IN doesnt it say on the inside to use premium

Any PPF on the windshield?

Wow….
Ouch… $500 in KY.
Well worth it!
Gorgeous ❤
Thank you! Cheers!
Will you keep it heritage blue?
I plan to
Hey, I used to live around there
My LC200 was $1,800 to get registered here in Colorado.😬😳

Is regular gas bad for the lc or does it just decrease horsepower?
It may decrease the HP a tad
Just tinted my wife's new camry for $199 and I thought that was expensive. I got a call to pick up vehicle and they said the tech accidentally used ceramic tint so I got a free upgrade.
Yea if they prices you for ceramic it would be double the price
Did DMV give your 3 hondos back?
letter sent off to the capital to get it back. All documents were submitted though
Sweet ride
Thanks!
It’s a hybrid. Might not be your brakes. Has to make that noise when backing up.
No it’s not the speaker that it does. This legit is like break squeals
Thanks❤
About $830 ish. Totally depends on area, amount of windows and the film. OCD uses higher quality film so it costs a bit more.
Just a heads up Florida statute doesn’t fully allow for any tinting on the windshield.

Yo bro I appreciate that! For sure. Which is why I didn’t wanna go very dark on the front at all
My gx is more worse when you reverse. But the lexus honolulu fix it they just put grease on it but when the parts coming in they gonna replace it.
Only 1000 miles when making the noise
Thanks for sharing!
Me too. I live in the desert and that's the very first modification I did blacked out windows
