Things Toyota forgot about

I wonder if they're trained to over-inflate like that... I know when I took delivery of my 1958, my tires were all inflated to around 38 psi.
When I took delivery of Miss Daisy, her Michelins were inflated close to 50 PSI.

EDIT: I wonder if all of the complaints on this forum have made their way back to the mothership, and it sent out word to over inflate tires to try and make the trucks get better fuel economy.

I just crossed the 6K threshold and these are a few these I think Toyota forgot about in an 80K SUV.......

None of the knobs were gold plated.
There isn't an air replacement for the tires included at the 5K service.
A hot towel dispenser included.
No hand stitched leather floormats.
The lack of self-inflating tires.
Air suspension seats do not work in mine!
The fact that you actually have to use the steering wheel to drive.

Hopefully anyone who reads this realizes it's totally satire but man it's getting old reading about what's wrong with the LC and how it compares to this and that make of vehicle. In reality I would only truly like my LC more......... if it were free.

Here's to everyone who reads this, having a better day tomorrow than they did today!
Always appreciate your posts! And I agree, amidst all the nit picking I’m having a hard time finding things to genuinely dislike about it. Yes, I’d love a 30gal tank - but it’s yet to leave me stranded and I’m beginning to get used to the 2gal sense of security at 0 MTE (😂). I’ve had it out in the backcountry for days on end and more recently to/from the ski pass on the regular, and it’s been fantastic.

Looking forward to putting an ARB onthe front to protect all the tech - and here’s to hoping for LC fun for many years to come!
 
Hahaha I’m with you sir! I see posts constantly regarding all these little hiccups and things they wish were different. I have had ZERO issues with mine, knock on wood, and obviously aside from my own F-ups, it’s been great, and I just hit 15,000m so maybe I just got lucky, or people need to relax a little!
 
Owners love them. They are selling like crazy. But some Youtubers have some thoughts so we should listen to them? Nah....just got out of my 1st Edition and already trying to think of something, anything I can go and do to drive it again.

edit: Only gripe I have is I wish there was a good spot for sunglasses. Only change I'd make so far.

this is me every day, trying to come up with an arbitrary reason to just go for a drive!

i hate when i get home because the adventure is over, but the only joy i get there is the look back at the LC before i go into the front door!:love:
 
Couldn't agree more. I do have a few nitpicking "design" things like the sun visor that is nearly useless when swung over to the side and the ridiculous dashcam placement. Other than that and the infamous MPG discrepancy, I'm very happy with mine.
