    Victory 4x4 roof rack?

    Victory 4x4 said this won't work with the Land Cruiser but I fail to see any difference in the GX and Land Cruiser roof lines / mounting points. Am I missing something? The short rack seems like a compelling option...

    Cabin (wind) noise

    I notice it a bit on the highways...seems mostly to be from the absolutely humongous mirrors.

    Land Cruiser Fuel Tank Capacity

    23mpg here with a pretty consistent mix of town and highway driving....and that's on 265/65r18 Ridge Grapplers. About 340 miles to the tank. Wish it were more? Yes. About the same as my old Tacoma? Also yes.

    Yeah, 100% eco mode.

    Real World mpg

    Same. About 3,500 miles on the odo and seeing a consistent 23mpg now. Again, this is on Nitto Ridge Grapplers... so not the most efficient tire. Overall happy with the mileage but the size of the gas tank sucks.

    Tire Recommendation

    I've got Nitto Ridge Grapplers on mine and, while they look really nice, I can definitely hear them. I thinking of toning it down a bit with Terra Grappler G2s at some point. Seems like a perfect mix of decent tread and low noise.

    JBL audio quality

    Take this with a grain of salt, but I really like the base stereo in the 1958 and haven't even bothered to tune it. The soundstage is high and forward. Highs are clear/snappy and mids strong. I really haven't pushed the low-end because I'm mostly listening to podcasts and the occasional rock/EDM...

    4Runner Owner: 1958 Test Drive Impressions

    I towed a golf cart about 700 miles with mine the week after buying it. Pulled like a champ because of how much torque the motor has. And I LOVE how robust the hitch is. It's a massive chunk of steel. Only thing that sucked was the gas mileage on that journey, which plunged down to 16-17mpg or...

    Adding/removing roof rails

    Is there a part number for the roof rails? I can easily find the crossbars...but not the rails themselves.

    4Runner Owner: 1958 Test Drive Impressions

    I don't mind the engine noises, specifically the turbo. Reminds me of the old Saab 9-3 I had! Dealer tossed all-weather mats in my 1958 when I bought it, apart from the carpet deck in the back hatch.

    Well that's pretty cool. I had no idea that was an option.

    Adding/removing roof rails

    Same. I'd take your roof rails!

    2024+ Land Cruiser Meteor Shower Photo Thread

    Yeah, that's how it was sitting at the dealer... Nitto Ridge Grapplers. I have no idea if the dealer or factory did it. Looks nice with the aggressive tread (to me at least)!

    Real World mpg

    It's the only thing I don't like about the vehicle right now, but I'm filling up about as much as my old Tacoma with its bigger gas tank. The more I drive the LC, though, the better the mileage gets. Currently averaging 23mpg, which is much better than the Taco ever got.

    💸 LCF List: Dealers charging MSRP for the 2024+ Land Cruiser

    Fred Anderson Toyota in Sanford, NC did not charge any sort of dealer mark-up. 1958 edition here.

    Car seats (for children)

    Diono RXT and a booster in the back of mine. Tons of space.

    Real World mpg

    I'm getting just over 20mpg in a slick-top 1958 edition. Backroads commute to work at around 55mph. Dealer or distributor added some beefy Nitto Ridge Grapplers, so that doesn't help... I'm sure the stock Grandtreks or whatever would net 1 or 2 more mpg. I also just towed a golf cart from FL to...

    Lack of Cargo Space

    I've been driving a 1958 edition for two weeks and I'm thrilled with the cargo space. Coming from a DCSB Tacoma (mine) and Crosstrek PHEV (wife's), and with two kids and lots of summer roadtrips, we needed more space. The LC's hatch area seemed just as big as the 5th gen 4Runner I test-drove...

    Meteor Brown Sugar Shower!

    This was listed at the dealer as Brown Sugar Metallic...guess it's the same as Meteor?
