    My experience in the Pacific Northwest; shopping in September 2024

    If anyone in the West Coast or PacNW is still looking for a LC. I highly recommend Doxon Toyota in Auburn, WA. ((253) 833-4555) I worked with David Alenick. He reached out to me through No Mark Up Toyota on FB. If you put in a build, and it gets allocated to you, they will also work with...

    LC - Auto Hybrid Engine Shut Off - Not Engaging

    Space and weight, likely. space is a premium, and perhaps a bigger tank would have required a bigger frame?

    LC - Auto Hybrid Engine Shut Off - Not Engaging

    I think...there's a real misconception about the hybrid engine for this model. It's for power, not gas savings. The new 4R I believe will have similar MPG, and compared to last year's model, that'll seem like a savings! But really, it's also for power. It is my understanding that power...

    Yup the 2025 are up. Just did a search inventory and a couple have been allocated to the Seattle area. Man, I tell you that Renton dealership should be shammed. They always increase theirs by 5K. blah. I also got a call from Eugene source to ask if I was still interested, think they were...

    Anyone spot any tire changes? Someone in the 4R forums said, 17" wheels with a better breaking system. I haven't seen anything on that.

    Is Toyota collecting our driving data... ie speed and habits? If so.... can we turn it off?

    Driver Monitoring System....it's the new tomorrow. And currently implemented in EU from what I am reading? I'm not saying it's right, to me this is no different than the conversations about phone monitoring....and if you think your map app isn't tracking your MPH, you might reconsider that...

    My experience in the Pacific Northwest; shopping in September 2024

    It "feels" like based on what I've been reading on FB sites; there's more demand in certain areas then others. And because dealers are able to sell to out of state, maybe there isn't a good "tracking" of true area demand. I think Toyota likes to use their Lean machine and Marketing tools to...

    My experience in the Pacific Northwest; shopping in September 2024

    That one is a good one. Used it and Doxon reached out to me. Granted, I don't have one coming inbound, but the sales contact is highly reachable and they are one of the larger in the PCNW region. I'm in line! Now it's a race between my local small dealership and them. PacNW seems to still...

    My experience in the Pacific Northwest; shopping in September 2024

    Been having similar experience, everything coming in is presold (except 1958s). I'm on the list of two dealerships while I continue to look. Because snow is coming, I am less inclined to fly over the Rockies and drive it home. Hoping the next week's allocations will give me good news...

    2025 Year Change

    A dealer I'm working with in Seattle (ish) area, suggested that it'll likely be later in the year due to the delayed launch of the LC this year. He was guessing, I would imagine a reasonable one since there aren't many substantial rumors.

    Inventory Update?

    Yup, except....not all dealers have "sale pending" on their in transits vehicles. A couple of weeks ago, I contacted 4 dealers that had in transits builds that I was interested, with any of the four colors on my list. All were presold. It wasn't until I put a ISO on No Markup Toyota on FB...

    Inventory Update?

    The next allocation is soon. I believe Sun/Monday (ish), good luck folks! Majority of what is in a 500 mile radius of me is sold for LC trim that is.

    Sightings on the Road?

    My first in the wild sighting was Friday I saw a LC LC TD heading over Blewett Pass from Ellensburg heading to Wenatchee, WA (Eastern WA). It pulled over letting cars pass. Temp plates. Maybe first drive since the driver didn't seem to want to go over 50 mph.

    Inventory Update?

    Lots of blue in WA, yup. Blue and Trail dust seems to be less popular out here. Anything coming in white, MS has been presold. Hardly see any blacks or Underground to comment. (yes I've been watching the 500 mile radius) lol

    Non-Turbo Land Cruiser

    Both my partner (6'2") and I (5'9") sat in the back of a 24 Taco OR. It has room, it's not a roomy as my outback nor the LC, but there's room. I moved away from it because I don't want my 80 yr old Mom trying to climb into it and sit back there on a road trip. The 4R is supposed to be...

    Any Word on Incoming '25's?

    I'm still chasing a LC. A dealer I had a conversation with recently said, "would you be willing to take a 25 if one came in instead? We don't have a good read on when they'll switch over, but generally about this time we start seeing movements in that direction". With the LC launch delay, he...
