These are a lot of great comment!!
Coming from a FJ Cruiser (sold in 2018), I knew the LC was for me the second I saw a review and those round headlights.
 
I will also throw out another possible alternative that will be useful if you do find yourself a homeowner in the near future: buy a truck.

Homeowner chores are a thing. Picking up appliances and furniture, hauling yard waste, runs to the dump, etc. These tasks are made easier with a truck vs SUV. A Toyota Tacoma Limited iForceMax will get you into a midsize pickup with all the tech, full time 4X4 (same transfer case as the LC), and the same T24A-FTS turbo inline 4 with a hybrid system. Comes in at 74.6” tall, so it will fit in your garage handily. Mechanically it’s a 250 series Land Cruiser with a bed.
When picking up my Lc yesterday I checked out two Tacomas they had in the showroom. It’d be tight for even a child to sit in the back seats. If you need to fit more than 2 people in there on any type of regular basis I wouldn’t get the new model IMO.
 
Tesla Model X Plaid. 0-60 in 1.99s. Price range is similar to a GX550
I have a car that does 0-60 in 3.9 seconds - but what that mostly means is that it takes me half a breath to get into get-thrown-in-jail territory.

I wouldn’t recommend buying a car strictly for its capacity for speed. There are too few opportunities to enjoy it.
