    Thoughts on my LC FE after 4000 Miles

    Yes. Iā€™m not sure why more people havenā€™t commented the same. HUGE improvement over the diaper.

    Towing mirrors?

    Nice. Well, there is hope I guess. Since weā€™re not ready to make the leap of faith on a trailer yet Iā€™m holding off on the camera workaround.

    Towing mirrors?

    Anyone come across any product that be attached to the LC mirrors for towing. Just had my first real experience with a travel trailer this weekend and, yeahā€¦ not great. Until we decide on what to buy our plan was to use outdoorsy and rent. Iā€™m willing to invest in a remote camera product if...

    GX550 fuel tank in a Land Cruiser

    Here we go! Is this going to be done by the Ed Martin Toyota crew?

    Premium Fuel or not?

    I have to imagine with all the tech in vehicles (sensors, storing of data) these days they can determine what fuel is being used. Iā€™m with you on this. I want to believe my LC power train is bulletproof but in the chance itā€™s not, and there is a massive failure, I donā€™t want to give Toyota...

    Front License Plate Bracket Install --

    Yup. Weā€™re glad we stopped the sales guy from drilling holes to ā€œmake us legalā€.

    Front License Plate Bracket Install --

    Wonā€™t do it. We bought a neoprene plate holder (itā€™s similar to what I had on my dog tags in Navy) and placed it on the dash. This is what weā€™re doing for now only because my wife insisted. Eventually itā€™s probably going in the glovebox or under the passenger seat becauseā€¦ while required in...

    Only getting 17mpg

    Spent time in Oregon recently. We topped off before crossing back into $5.00 country.

    Land Cruisers are easily stolen.

    I think Iā€™m doing this. Questions: **What was the total $$$? **Do you get two ā€œkeysā€? **And if a key is lost what would need to happen? Thanks!

    Tire pressure light

    So I just experienced a flat right front. Woke up to it this morning. I mounted the spare tire however the front right still acts as if itā€™s flat and tells me to adjust the pressure. I tried performing the Tire Rotation steps in the TPWS (using manual) and it seems to be doing something and...

    In or around Indiana and want a larger fuel tank?

    I wonder if they would even ā€œgo thereā€ with this project if they didnā€™t at least check in with someone at Toyota. Maybe Iā€™m naive. Probably.

    My impression after 2000 miles (and first real road trip)ā€¦

    Here is a link to something useful for storage around the center console by Ed Martin Toyota.

    In or around Indiana and want a larger fuel tank?

    Interesting. Iā€™ll be watching thisā€¦ the headlamp mod video was well done.

    Land Cruisers are easily stolen.

    Did they damage anything in the process (aside from window and grey cable)?

    Bgeorger is the handle of a fellow LC owner on this forum. He makes them.

    My impression after 2000 miles (and first real road trip)ā€¦

    I wasnā€™t clear enough in my post and have since edited it. The issue is with the interior front console lacking a place(s) to set sunglasses, smartphones, etc. I love driving it, and itā€™s very comfortableā€¦ until you have a passenger and realize there is no where to put basic stuff that is...

    My impression after 2000 miles (and first real road trip)ā€¦

    I bought one as well and I do appreciate having it. However, when my wife was driving, and she had her phone on the quick charger, there wasnā€™t a convenient place for me to set my phone down. We settled on the passenger door pull. Itā€™s just odd to me but Iā€™m sure weā€™ll just get used to it. The...

    My impression after 2000 miles (and first real road trip)ā€¦

    We have an LC LC Premium with the 20ā€ wheels. No mods. Edit: Specified area of storage for LC that I feel is lacking. Weā€™ve been getting around 20 mpg with mixed urban/freeway. Just returned from a 1350 mile road trip, mostly interstate, from Sacramento Valley up I-5 to Depoe Bay, Oregon and...

    Interior storage solutions --WARNING NOT CHEAP!

    Hello, are this little nets still working out for you? We are on our first long road trip and boy is the lack of storage apparent. Where do I put my @#$@# phone. Anyway, if this is working weā€™re going to be ordering. Thanks!

    Impressions After 6000 Miles

    I was at a range of 4 miles when down to just 2 gallons left. What was your range when you parked next to the pump? Did range just go to 0 or read ā€œemptyā€?

    Only getting 17mpg

    Iā€™m Sac area. Weā€™ve had ours since mid September and Iā€™ve yet to see a single LC. I just did a search on the forum just to see if Sac gets any mentions. I think you and one other person. Hopefully your mpg is ticking up by now.

    Impressions After 6000 Miles

    I am surprised by some of the lower numbers I see on this thread. Iā€™m on my 3rd tank now. I went with 91 this time (did 89 on the second. Not sure what dealer put in on the first). We are doing close to 20 mpg average overall with a good mix of driving conditions. Definitely not stomping on it...
