4 Month Ownership Review! 2020 Toyota Land Cruiser Heritage Edition! BETTER than the Tundra TRD Pro?
Vložit
- čas přidán 21. 09. 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! =] 🙏🏼
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.
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.
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!
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.
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. =]
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.
Beadlocks, ARB front, rear bumper and rock sliders and some round lights this baby is gon look bomb👌
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?
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.
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! =]
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 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. =]
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!
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:
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.
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. =]
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.
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.
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.
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. =]
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 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.
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?
@@davidmitchell5638 Costa Rica 🇨🇷
The Lexus version is better
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.
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
LC's are awesome; own a '14 Lexus LC 570 ... going to keep it forever
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...
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.
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!
I appreciate your detailed explanation etc. but no need to justify this purchase! This is a VERY smart car and bad ass, too.
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
Awesome review!! Thanks for sharing!!
My pleasure, thank you!
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.😀
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. =]
Hi 🙋♀️ beautiful beautiful Toyota Land Cruiser I love the color! Great 👍 video.
Thanks Veronica, you rock!
Congratulations for your new car
I’m trining to find out how much is it out the door with no additional warranty
I own a 2013 and it’s definitely a tank. Hope to make it to a million miles
Best purchase ever! Keep her forever brother!
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. 👌🏻
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.
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 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. =\
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
One of my dream cars! Such a beauty 💙
Why did you remove the roof rack? And how do you like the added side steps?
What is the brand of the running boards you added? They look really good.
I own a 1993 LC 80 series...and it still runs it's my daily
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. =]
Curious to hear your opinion on why you went with the KO2S vs the Nitto Ridge grapplers. I have a new LX570 and I purchase the Tundra TRD pros wheels and I’m researching on tires. Do you think the Nitto 295s you had on your army green tundra would fit on my LX? Thanks in advance for your help.
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 really like the Bronze wheels with Black.
Sterling Pilgrim thanks man... they definitely go well together huh? =] 🙏🏼
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 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.
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 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 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?
Enjoy! Love the LC.
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. =]
I see you took off the roof basket, the truck looks much better without it.
Do you know what the biggest tire size I can fit on a land cruiser without having to lift or cut anything?
“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 😅
Great LC! Don’t sell it! Congrats on your 4 month ownership! 👍🏼
haritz2007 Thanks man! 🙏🏼
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.
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 love the Land Cruiser and the Lexus LX but I don’t understand why they don’t have a folding flat 3rd row.... ended up buying a ‘13 GX bc the 4Runner didn’t have the power I wanted.
To each his own. You have a vehicle that will last you a lifetime. Nice review.
Thanks bud!
if someone wanted the same vehicle...
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
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 glass on the tailgate doesn't come down because of the dual-action on the tailgate itself.
The dent in the bonnet put me off buying one. Purchased a Range Rover Sport HSE SDV8 instead. No regrets.
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.
Love the back end of this car
My 1997 80 series is still going strong... back when LCs cost only 57k lol
You could convert it to run on LPG/CNG and save tons of money on fuel, its a shame you don't have the v8 turbo diesel.
Beautiful SUV without any doubt. Hope it serves you for 25+ years.
Why not just leave the V8 as is and go with aluminum body and perhaps newer transmission to improve fuel economy?
Great choice of vehicle. I love them
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.
Never did like when cars have golden accents but there's something about the the land cruiser with the Golden rims that really make the car pop! Maybe its a toyota thing haha!
Haha yeah it’s a tough color to pull off well... without looking like a early 2000s rally car hah. =] I’m a huge fan of it on this. BUT, I’m a smidge biased. =]
@untamed motors what is the load rating that you went with on your KO2s?
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. 😬
What a great looking truck. Did you have to alter the stock suspension when you added KO2 tires? What size are those tires?
Thanks man, I appreciate it! No alterations made. These are only slightly larger than the stock dunlops. These are 285/70/18
@@UntamedMotors Do you mean 285/65 18? 👍🏽
@@carloslopez9486 yes. Thank you.
Looks so clean without the roof rack and with those KO2’s. 👍🏼
Thanks bud. =]
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.
Toyota are the best ive own a 2010 Hilux in aus towing everydays for work it still running good to now
LOVE the rims!
AC Supersport super unique to see bronze wheels on a factory vehicle these days... =] I love them too!
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.
Great looking LC
wattsun Thank you! 🙏🏼
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.
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!
How do you think the off road capabilities compare between the Tundra, Taco, 4 Runner TRD Pro vs the Land Cruiser with the KO2's? What size tires are you running on the Land Cruiser 285/60R18 D Load range or 285/65R18 E range?
285/65/18 E is what I'm running. Love the feel of these KO2s and the piece of mind that comes with. =] Though I know all of these rigs could hold their own in nearly any off road predicament, I'd take the 4Runner (with KO2s) over the others. It's lighter, thinner and a bit less $ so I would feel a bit more confident rolling it down a daunting hill or mountain. All would be excellent though -of course.
I have 33” KO2’s on mine with stock suspension and it’s phenomenal off-road. I love the off-road cruise control! That being said, it’s a wide vehicle and I’ve been very concerned on some trails I’ve been on. I think the 4Runner and Tacoma would be much better offroading narrower trails.
My dream vehicle ♥️
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 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...
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. =\
Nice update. I don’t see you selling this anytime soon, especially since the Mrs. loves it and drives it. Unless you want to be Untamed Sleeping on Sofa 🤣. I can’t think of anything more reliable and safer to put the family in. The Tacoma - that’s another story. As nice as it is, I can see you trading it in for your next love lol. It holds resale value too well to not be used to finance next ride.
Haha you're starting to know me too well... lol A curveball is coming. =]
Untamed Motors I still believe one day you will have 2 Land Cruisers. Maybe a 21 Heritage Edition, maybe a 2022 300 series lol.
Navy Doc haha that’d be a tough one to pass... even since having the Tacoma for a bit, I’ve started to really appreciate having a bed to use. I think a truck will always be in the lineup from here forward. Since the Mrs. doesn’t feel comfortable driving a truck on a daily basis, it appears I’ve forever lost the LC for the greater good. Heh
Untamed Motors they do make a Land Cruiser pick up...import one. That’s a very untamed move heh heh.
Navy Doc don’t give me any ideas man... 😂
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.
Congrats on your LC but you did not answer the question in your video. I currently have a tundra TRD pro with three kids and wanted to see the pros and cons of switching to the LC from someone else’s perspective. Enjoy the truck!
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!
