New Almost Owner I hope!

Put 500 down on the Land Cruiser edition adding premium package and the 20 inch wheels. Super excited. It is in CA and hope released soon. I bought Black on black.
cheers

Welcome to the forum RTRinKY! Plopped $1K down also for a LC edition with the premium pkg. Did not ask for the 20" wheels, as my logic was the 18" would be better suited for off-roading hereabouts, but will accept either. Meteor Shower with Java. Strange, you are apparently in Kentucky, but the vehicle is in California?

 

[RTRinKY]

Yes I’m in KY. It was shipped from
Japan to Ca now it is going through its quality review. Hope it gets released soon.! Thanks for reaching out.

That is what I like, an optimist! Trying to keep a positive mindset, but difficult with the way Toyota jacks us around, from the unrestrained dealers to the top.

Took delivery of mine today! Stokes Hilton Head Toyota. Great experience.

Welcome to the forum dwover!, and congratulations! Cannot ascertain for positive, but no sunroof? Reason for asking is that apparently all with a sunroof are still on hold at the ports of entry.

DUH! I should have deduced that! Old and slow here, but if our LC every arrives, youth will return.

You got "THE" color! Congrads!

Love it already. Yes 1958 version. Had some reservations about 1958 “stripped down” version, but I was on waiting list since December and was more concerned with color than trim. After spending the afternoon traveling back home it, I have no regrets at all. It had upgraded tires which I liked as well,

That was the color I requested, the dealership that I used was on the smaller side and I figured they wouldn't be getting many FEs so I compromised on a Blk one. They ended up getting 2 FEs both Blk.

I think Bronze Method wheels would look great on that color.

Excellent. Buying mine in Southern Indiana. They seem awesome as well! I’m jelly!

Congratulations! Great looking 1958. I like the pic next to the fuel pumps. I have a feeling that's where we all will be spending a lot of time with our new Landcruisers. Ha

Yep probably so. But the power is pretty impressive for an LC. I had a 1997 with 6 cyl (sluggish) and a 2004 with 8 cyl. (better) but both were absolutely horrible on gas. I feel like 12 mpg was standard. Still great vehicles, and really liked them both for diff reasons. but maybe this newer one with ample torque but only a 4 banger will be a a bit better on petro. Then again, if we wanted efficiency, we probably shouldn’t be buying full-time 4WD vehicles with all-terrain tires!
