POLL: What vehicle did you leave for your LC?

[SocalJBP]

Turned in my Tesla Model S, this is way better in the mountains & mud!

Curious what vehicle led to having your LC250? I’m sure I missed some obvious choices, but here goes…

NOTE: I've added a couple options that I missed (didn't know I could do that!), so if you picked OTHER but had an FJ, Bronco, Subaru or Sequoia, you can go back and change your vote!

I traded my 2020 Honda Pilot Touring for the LC.

View attachment 20912I had a 22 WRX because I really wanted AWD and a manual transmission, and cars with that combination are rare these days. Since the new LC was announced I’d basically decided that was the next vehicle I was getting. I hadn’t planned on getting one so soon, but moving to Colorado changed my priorities and I really wanted something comfortable and rugged to explore the amazing wilderness here with my family. The WRX was a great car, but I have zero regrets getting rid of it. The LC might be my favorite vehicle I’ve owned.

It much reminds me of our old Volvo 145s and 245s of years ago. Swedish bricks that went well in the snow if you watched your speed. The LC is much peppier and handles great in the snow. Still trying to figure out is premium is needed. Ran one tank of regular and could not tell any difference.

RAV4 TRD OR, it wasn't capable enough, so now the Tacoma has a body on frame stablemate.

Hard to do but I'm glad I did!

Colorado ZR2. The Land Cruiser is far more comfortable and has a bigger back seat for my teenage kids.

Sad to see her go, but she went to a good home. 2018 Volvo V90 R-Design

Tacoma. Loved it. Built an armored rock-crawler and put it to legitimate use. However over time I fell out of love with rock crawling and started enjoying off-grid camping more, so I wanted a nicer ride, better MPG, and a place to sleep in the back. I'm only 200 miles into my LC but I'm really loving it so far. First off-grid trip planned for this weekend.

I replaced an MB GLS 450 with a 2024 MB Wagon and a 2024 Desert Tan FE LC. My first LC since I owned my 1992 LC for 10 years! Nice to be back. . . .

Who is going to buy all the FJ Cruisers now that Assad is out of business. Apparently, he collected a whole garage full of them.

Dumped a 2019 Raptor before the extended warranty ran out.

I saw that on the news yesterday too! I had to back up and replay several time just to be sure. I wonder what the mileage on them is?

How'd you like it? My wife's 5 is coming due and is torn between going Japanese like I did or staying European.

The X7 was fantastic. I have nothing bad to say about that car. I was coming up on 60,000 miles and had an opportunity to get out unscathed before it depreciated too badly and the big maintenance items came up. I am extremely happy with my decision to jump into the Land Cruiser. Well, except for the brake squeal.

coming up on 60,000 miles

even with the most pragmatic estimate assuming it was purchased summer 2021 and sold fall 2024 that is good 6 + 12x2 + 9 = 39 = ~40 months of driving.

60 000 / 40 = 1 500 miles a month or 18 000 miles a year or 50 miles a day. Are these numbers sound crazy only to me?

The funny part is that I didn't have it from March of 23 - June of 23 because it was in the shop for a minor fender bender.

I have had my Land Cruiser since July 3rd and I have almost 11,000 miles.

Travel hockey miles are no joke!
