You can compare with the LC sold overseas to get that number, I would guess it would be similar to other vehicles at the same class.
I would love to see other owner to do a long term experiment on using regular gas, though I don’t want to do it myself. Using the car within the recommendation of...
Does anyone feel it is annoying that these climate control buttons are not illuminated? Everytime I drive the car in the dark I have to guess which one goes where. I started to think that maybe to installed some ambient lighting around the AC so I don’t have to guess which buttons is where.
BTW...
hybrid are not created the same. For most drivers’ understand of how hybrid works, you might as well treated it as a non-hybrid power trained. Toyota did’t put the battery in the car so it can drive like a Prius.
I start to think the best platform is for somebody to create these PVC or wooden compartments raising about two inches, and reuse the original cover. So people can have useful enlarged storage under. This is minimally invasive and keep the original design improved. To be honest I think Toyota...
I agree, but not everything is next to buttons. Plus vinyl is general not working too well neither with curves surfaces. (the type you get on Amazon is likely not last for heat and UV too). It’s a choice between pros and cons
Amazon has a lot of covers for essentially all plastic part of cabin in carbon fiber print. You might also check out these. I would buy it if it is not carbon fiber but more natural texture like dark wood.
I think the even worse thing to happen going forward is that when insurance company realize how easy the windshield breaks, they are going to raise our already very high premium in order to cover it.
That is exactly where my confusion is. It seems from the manual that Toyota did record images/video on the car, but there seems no way I can collect it as owner.
BTW "Driver Monitoring Camera" usually means the one that is facing you. On Land Cruiser that camera located on your driving wheels...
I saw this "DMC Recording" in my LC settings. However it looks quite cryptic as I couldn't find anywhere that allows me to download the "recording" from my LC. Anybody knows that this is actually a "recording" and file is stored somewhere in the car, or by "recording" Toyota simply meant turn...
I am thinking about changing the color of the bumper to a more prominent color.
I do not think the plastics on the exterior can bond with any wrapping. Painting it manually feels cheap and messy.
What is your suggestion if I want to change the color of these plastics, including the one on the...
My true reason for FE is kinda silly… I really don’t like the LC headlight. No legendary offroad SUV has these kind of light. Bronco, Wrangler, G-Wagon all uses round light. LC makes me feel that I am driving a 4Runner. Nothing wrong with it I just really want a more Heritage look. That’s why I...
FE is simply LC trim with rock slider, skid plate, and roof rack, and different headlights. I estimated before that if you get a LC trim, you can use the money to upgrade all these components with more personalized (and better) components of everything you get with FE. The resale value would not...
For time being my plan is to use a small lithium power station as a staging source for the camera and LTE connection (DC to USB-C), while I am thinking for a more permanent solution.
I want to hide the wire as much as possible, so for time being I don't want to put it directly on glass. The...
Just curious.... if you don't want the stock slider why did you order FE? LC trim is a lot cheaper and you can use the saved money to buy this slider instead
I am about to install exactly the same settings on mine. I guess it will be as painful as I expected.
BTW how did you mount your rear camera? I am still undermined for the best location
I saw many people sell some sort of "windshield protection film". Has anybody try that? Kind of hard to imagine that a thin layer of elastic film to absorb much energy getting transferred to the glass...
I was reading that thread, sorry to see it happening. I do think the guy have a cool design at least in his rendering. Not sure he would choose to scam people rather than actually go through it and actually make the steps.
I think it's just a matter of time some quality step will come out. If...
It makes me feel bad that there are already this much people need to replace their windshields. LC is still very new and very few people is driving it right now, maybe only a few thousands in US.
There are different types of knock-offs from China. Some are made with very good quality, some are totally trash. You need to do a little homework before buying.
Ideally I think fitting a loose mesh net to the grill would be enough. Too dense it might get in the way of air flow too. Frame is...
Bugs are not the reason I want to install this thing, I am more thinking about small rocks punching through the radiator and cause the leak. The gap in this grill is pretty big for the rocks to go through
I am considering this one from eBay: 3p For 2024-2025 Toyota Prado Land Cruiser Front Grille Mesh Anti-Insect Net. What do you guys think about adding a mesh net to your grill ?
Isn’t transparent film works better there? The stainless steel look feels nice, why blocks it? Plus if you use transparent film you don’t even have to cut in the middle
Does anybody feel the new hood curves are annoying in a way that if you are driving towards the source of light it is a lot easier for these light to bounce off into drivers' eyes? I feel the traditional hood curves didn't have nearly as much reflection as the new design. I wonder if there is a...
For you guys who installed aftermarket rear dashcam, what is your choice of mounting location and ways to hide wires?
I have never done any work to install rear dashcam. Usually Toyota's car has a rubber covered passage to allow wiring from rear hatch / door to the body, which is the most ideal...
