Hey all,
Just picked up Land Cruiser (Prado) as it's called here (SaudiArabia).
Lowest trim available with the round head lights and rear locker, it's quite similar to the 1958 in the US market but missing all the driver assistance features and equipped with 7 seats.

It's available here with two engine options, 2.4 turbo petrol (non hybrid) and 2.8 turbo diesel which is what I got.

Overall I'm quite impressed with the vehicle so far, it feels light and nimble and quite comfortable for this size of car.
The diesel engine power feels strong and torquay and relatively efficient as it's rated at 33MPG and I'm getting around 26MPG so far.

I still haven't taken it off road and will do as soon as I'm done with the break in period.

New owner of 2024 LC 1st edition. once i figured out disabling the annoying driver monitor, I searched the forum for front mounting plate options without drilling. Thanks to all for the ground work . The LC will supplement my beloved 88 1st Gen 4Runner for beach driving in DE. Not much of an off-roader but may try it out.

So happy to see this forum created, thank you. Just started to look into a LC or GX for my next rig. Had a unlimited Rubicon, not the best. Was looking at the Bronco, enough said.
Have had multiple Toyota trucks and cars but have had My F50 4x4 crew cab for the past 20years. Front row leg room is the reason I found this site.
Anyway, looking forward to keeping up on this site for detailed information.

Have a great rest of your day and weekend!
 
Hello! Just found out my 1958 made it to the dealer lot today. Bummed i won’t be back in town until Monday to scoop it up. Will be joining my 16 Tacoma. Looking forward to some fresh modding adventures. Cheers!

Hi Everyone!
1st time Toyota owner and picked up my LC FE last week. Coming from a Chrysler Pacifica (driving minivans for the last 24 yrs). Previous Bronco2 and Blazer owner. So happy to be back in a 4x4. Excited to learn what has changed.

Anyone in Scottsdale that would like to meet up for a coffee, I’d be happy to meet other 250 owners in the area! I picked up a Trail Dust First Edition at the end of May and loving it so far! I have a 200 as well and the 250 drives so much smaller with the immediate torque and lighter steering. Will love my 200 forever though, she was my first Land Cruiser and have been on countless adventures all over the west. Here’s a couple photos of both:

Hi there,

I've been an LC enthusiast since I was 16 when my very first vehicle was a 1959 FJ25 Land Cruiser. And this past weekend I purchased a brand-new "1958" LC.

I retired from law enforcement about 10 years ago (first from San Francisco PD and retired then again from the Department of Homeland Security). Music performance and off-roading now occupy my free time.

Anyway, I'm eager to see what everybody else is doing with their latest versions of the Land Cruiser and this forum looks like just the place to do that.

Just got back from my first overloading trip - central Washington to Canada on the BDR - after picking up my FE the week before. Punctured a sidewall and got some pin striping so all is as it should be. Appreciate learning from y'all on here.

Nice! I'm looking at doing the WA BDR in September for the first time. Any advice beyond the route map and discovery points?

Nice LC ! Welcome
 
Hello All:

Currently looking for a new car, deciding between the new 4runner, the old 4runner, a GX, and a landcruiser. Looking forward to getting some insights into the new landcruiser and leaning towards getting one after 1-2 years - depending on the new 4runner and budget and reliability of the new 4 cylinders. I am upgrading from a used 2008 gm suv. This would be my first purchase that isn't treating the car as just transportation. Looking for something reliable and a 30 year car.

I've been following the forum for months and decided to create an account as i aim to learn more.
