Thought this might be helpful to see the list of storage places in the manual . This does not show the storage in the side of the doors and shows storage features available on 3rd row seats which currently are not offered in the US. It does appear the glove box can be locked with the manual key...

I think dealers understand the limited quantity of Trail Dust and Heritage Blue First Edition are going to be attractive as collectors items

Photo from the Reddit thread.

Do sunglasses fit in the compartment on the steering wheel? Thread on the Land Cruiser reddit forum complaining about the design since you can't wrap your hand around the center part of the wheel. Curious what owner's experience has been or thoughts on this design.

Agree, strange choice for them to not at least give the option to choose on the highest trim level. I do think the black/gray looks good. I just am tired of dark interiors.

Sure thing. Reading the manual is helping pass the time a little as I wait impatiently for it to get here.

I went back and forth and settled on the FE due to not wanting to mess with the hassle of trying to swap the headlights. Good chance I will switch out the roofrack at some point for a full roof rack so that's another data point against getting the FE. I didn't want 20" rims and the FE comes with...

Normally the hybrid system will shut off after 1 hour. When inside the vehicle, if you lock the doors using the door switch the hybrid system will stay on indefinitely according to the user manual. You can tell they designed it this way assuming you are planning on staying in the vehicle if...

Yes, check out the thread on car camping

It’s design related. The drainage tube ran slightly uphill and they identified it could potentially cause leaks in the future. Supposedly a quick fix once the parts come in according to someone who talked to someone high up the chain in Toyota.

Yeah, not sure. I guess Toyota ships most of their vehicles from the ports of Nagoya/Toyohashi which are both close to Toyota City.

Hamura/Tokyo as well

Your vehicle is on Century Highway Green along with mine. You can track it by clicking on the link I posted earlier in this thread

Mine was manufactured on 5/15. Close to when they started putting vehicles on QC holds. I believe it is on Century Highway Green due into Portland on June 16th. I'm curious if it will be affected or not. Should tell us how soon Toyota realized there was an issue and if they began correcting it...

I created this thread for an easy place for people to track their ship once they find out the ship information from their dealer. Some of these ships go on to different ports and eventually head back to Japan and gather another load. Some head straight back to Japan.

Latest batch left Japan yesterday and headed to Portland. A few other ships on their way to the East and West coast as well. Haven't asked my dealer yet but the itinerary matches up with the timeline listed on his update he gave me on Monday for shipping times. MarineTraffic: Global Ship...

Around the 4:00 mark they start doing some pretty technical off roading. Impressive that the stock Land Cruiser bested the modified 4 Runner. You can click on closed captions and also change them to auto translate to whichever language you want under the settings option if watching on native...

From the GX550 Facebook group:

Thought it might be useful for people to have a thread where we can track our vehicles as they leave port in Japan, at least in the early stages of supply constraints. I've done research on some of the ships Toyota uses to transport vehicles to the US. Once the ship is underway, you can click on...

see my updated post. Could also see if you needed to leave a pet in the vehicle (wouldn't recommend it if it's really hot outside just in case the system shuts down) but there are a few use cases I can think of beyond just camping in the vehicle. Camping in a roof top tent or regular tent and...

If I'm reading this correctly, if you are camping inside the vehicle and you lock the vehicle using the door switches, the hybrid system should cycle on and off through the night and the 1 hour timer to shut off the hybrid system is disabled. Same if you lock the vehicle from the outside using...

Thanks for clarifying. I reread the post and I missed that his vehicle had shipped earlier. Thought it had shipped out recently.
