    Discounts on the LC....?

    It looks like a number of members are getting somewhere around $2k off MSRP on LC packaged models. Is this what most are negotiating now?

    Inventory Update?

    I stand corrected. Sounds like Heritage Blue is opening up a bit.

    Inventory Update?

    My understanding is Heritage Blue is perhaps the most difficult to obtain right now. Trail Dust is likely more available, however, fairly difficult.

    Landcruiser Badge (Rear) In Grey

    Thank you for the explanation. So it is basically a plastic/rubber compound that is sprayed on. Appreciate it.

    Inventory Update?

    Depending on your color choice, you'll get one before 3 - 6 months. I just wasted too much time with a dealer who isn't getting any allotments. I'm seeing a lot of black LC Premium trims popping up now.

    Side Moulding Option

    I have a black LC coming as well. I am going back and forth on the moldings. I presume they can be removed as they are attached via double stick tape as I understand.

    Landcruiser Badge (Rear) In Grey

    What actually is plastidip? I've never had it done. Does it look factory and hold up well? Do body shops do it?

    Thoughts on Overall Looks of LC v. GX

    I was dropping a friend off at the Lexus dealer yesterday and they had a GX in slate gray on the showroom floor. I had a chance to look it over closely. It had the auto retractable running boards and 22” wheels. It was well equipped. After looking at it, it is a decently attractive SUV...

    Sightings on the Road?

    Absolutely. They are a vey niche vehicle with a high price tag. LC has always been rare and it appears they will remain that way. Which is why I am buying one.

    Sightings on the Road?

    I've had a few 2 door Wranglers over the years. The Jeep wave is real and very much a big thing. You'll also find a rubber duck on your door handle from time to time. Another Wrangler thing. I have waived once in a while in my 4Runner and I usually get flipped off. Porsche 911 has a subtle...

    That was very statesmanlike to go back and check on her. The LC Club is stronger than ever.

    Sightings on the Road?

    I literally saw my first LC in Omaha yesterday afternoon. First one to date. I did see one GX a month or so ago parked at my golf course; so I could look it over a bit. Definitely prefer the LC to GX both outside and inside. The LC really looks sharp and imposing on the road. Are people...

    Any Word on Incoming '25's?

    I literally just got off the phone with a dealer in Chicago. They have a number of LC's all over the Chicago area. Lots and lots of '24s. He foresees the '25s not coming until January.

    Any Word on Incoming '25's?

    Glad to hear they are still building '24s. Need to keep the inventory incoming.

    Any Word on Incoming '25's?

    Curious if anyone is aware of when the '25's will be incoming. Looks like '24 inventory has stabilized and allocations of '24's has slowed. Presumably Toyota has switched to '25's. Any word on minor changes/color changes?

    Inventory Update?

    The only dealer that I've talked with and visit frequently is in Lake Okoboji, IA. They admit to being the smallest dealer in the country....as they are in a town of 10,000 lake people and have on avg 12 Toyotas on their lot. Awesome dealer by the way.

    Inventory Update?

    I believe every dealer in every city across the nation claims to be the biggest dealer. I'm beginning to believe car dealers have a tendency to tell a fib or two.

    Inventory Update?

    That's probably the smartest thing to do. It's not as though I am walking now. Have two cars. Good things come to those who wait.....

    Inventory Update?

    I've been No. 2 on "the list" at Des Moines Toyota since late May. They claim to be the largest dealer in the world, however, have yet to even receive a white one apparently. I am tempted to switch my deposit to another dealer or just hit the pavement and just accept the fact I'll have to fly...

    Inventory Update?

    I am still patiently waiting for my black LC. Dealers keep claiming there are no allocations and no inventory. What are people finding in reality? I see a lot of them on Autotrader, etc.

    That is the avg MPG while sitting in the garage overnight.

    It's a Land Cruiser. They are expensive and they demand a premium price.

    MY 1999 LAND CRUISER VERSUS MY 2024 LC FE. WHAT I DON’T LIKE….

    Thank you for the write up, Dr. M. There are always changes with new model introductions. Glad to hear you like the new one, Your old one is sharp as well. Time to give it to your son on his way to Georgetown!

    Dealer Fees

    That's what my dealer just quoted. It used to be $249 and I thought that was too high.

    PlastiDip or Remove iForceMax branding?

    The Land Cruiser badge should not be black unless you want a “black package.” It looks like hell in black on a black truck. It needs to be changed to match the front Toyota logo.

    *update*321 miles and had to be towed to the dealer😞

    Outstanding. Easy fix. Always remember, anything with two or more moving parts can and will fail. Even a Toyota.

    PlastiDip or Remove iForceMax branding?

    That would bother me nonstop. Interested if anyone is aware of a remedy for this as well.
