Just picked up a 2025 1958 model in ice cap last Friday. I have had some Toyota trucks in the past. Most recently, I had a 1991 FJ80 for about 10 years, and I sold it a year ago. I am happy that Toyota finally brought a more base spec Prado to the United States, and I can't believe I am now driving a new one off the lot. Loving the drivetrain so far, a bit peppier than the 3FE!
I ended up paying MSRP for it, but, that included new Katzkin black leather seats that the dealer had installed to make the base spec more enticing. I could have picked up a model without the aftermarket leather for -$2500k. I was okay with cloth, but ultimately the leather will be nice for cleaning up dog hair. The leather is nicer than the OEM leather in my wife's Audi.
I am telling myself that I am going to keep this one near stock. For now, I am just planning on getting some AT tires on it in 285/70 R18. I picked up some OEM roof rails from a local fellow member earlier this week. I plan to mount my 2.0 meter ARB awning on that. Maybe skid plates, sliders....
I am happy to be here!
