It seems like the 1958 edition gets better mileage. Maybe due to the smaller tires?

This thread has me really concerned about getting a LC. You seem to be the only person who’s getting the advertised MPG. Are you able to get the advertised 23ish MPG on a regular basis?

Looking through all the comments it seems that the only vehicles experiencing a lot of wind noise on the highway are LC First Edition and ones with Cross Bars. Does anyone with a LC or 1958 WITHOUT rack or crossbars have highway noise issues?

When you disable the driver monitoring camera, do all of the driver assistance features still work? (Like adaptive cruise and lane centering, traffic jam assist, etc)

North of Richmond? If so, I couldn’t agree more. I95 from Richmond to Baltimore is by far the worst driving in the US. Doesn’t matter if you take 895, 695, 495 or any other, they all suck. So you’re saying the highway drive assist actually makes that drive better? I’m intrigued. Does it handle...

You say the gas engine has to “kick in”?So can you drive on pure electric? I’ve never driven a LC so I’m curious how this works.

I have an M1 MacBook Pro. It’s the best computer I’ve ever owned. Lightning fast. Battery lasts forever. Highly recommend.

Does anyone with a 1958 or LC (non FE) have the same issue with highway noise?

So in summary, the theory goes… “Globally, put 91 octane in it and we figure that should get at least 87 even with crappy gas. In the USA, put 87 in it and it’ll probably actually be 87.” The only thing that doesn’t make a lot of sense about this theory… it’s easy for them to print labels and...

This seems lower than I’d expect. What type of driving do you do? Are your tires factory size?

Looks great with those wheels!!

Is it true that with Lane Trace Assist, you don’t really need to steer? The vehicle just does the steering for you?

I’m looking for feedback on how well the LC handles highway driving. All models come with Adaptive Cruise and Lane Trace Assist, but in particular I wonder how well those work to make for a comfortable ride and reduced fatigue. Also, how is the cabin noise with the stock tires? No dealerships...

Pop them off and spray them with Trim and Bumper paint. This stuff is amazing. It's lightly textured so it looks like OE textured plastic.

This will sound like a strange thing to compare, but it’s one that I’ve been thinking about.. Why is the 4Runner Platinum offered with Heated Rear Seats, but the Land Cruiser has no such option? If the LC is the more premium / luxury of the vehicles, I’d think it would be standard or at least...

Don’t you mean “petrol” hybrid? ;-)

Totally cool 👍

Did it in Photoshop. Used the Toyota photo as reference artwork. I’ve always felt like this new LC needs a roof rack like the 4-Runner TRD Pro.

I’ve been thinking about the new Land Cruiser constantly. Put together an illustration with a desert tan body and overland roof rack setup. This is my dream build.

I wonder if the LC could land around 5000-5200 lbs? The 4-Runner is 4400 - 4800 lbs. Add a hybrid battery and motor and you're in around 5k. That could be light enough for 25 mpg combined.

This makes a lot of sense. The sticker will probably end up with 25 City / 25 Highway / 25 Combined. I'd be happy with that.

I was doing some more research on this. Toyota has been using Atkinson cycle engines on some hybrid vehicles. The Atkinson cycle has more compression on the power stroke than it does on the compression stroke by leaving the intake valve open longer. The net effect is more fuel efficiency at the...

You’re right. How did I miss that? So the IForce Max with the Hybrid motor is rumored to get up to 30mpg highway in a Tacoma. Now I’m scratching my head wondering how that works… let’s say you’re cruising on the highway for a couple hours. Wouldn’t the hybrid battery be depleted at some point...

I'm trying to imagine what the Fuel Economy on the Land Cruiser will be when it launches. I've seen the screenshots from the Toyota site showing the 27 MPG estimated (before they removed it). For comparison, I'm looking at a window sticker for the 2024 Toyota Tacoma with a similar powertrain...

I'd love to get in on this badge if it's still offered :)

Welcome. It's awesome that you have a Bronco Everglades... in the Everglades.

Hi. I’m actually in Phoenixville, not far away. We’ll have to figure out the best dealership in the area before this gets real. :-)

Hi. I’ve been an off road enthusiast my entire life. I’ve always owned Jeeps but the new 2024 Land Cruiser is the first vehicle that has me wanting to switch. The design is beautiful, inside and out. It’s got a center and rear locker. It’s rumored to get 27mpg. Java colored interior. Adaptive...
