Hi Everyone,
It's a bittersweet moment for me. After driving my second 4Runner for 17 years and diligently maintaining it in my garage—changing every fluid and replacing every light bulb—it's tough to part with my 4th Gen 4Runner. However, the ultimate joy of my new 2024 Land Cruiser in Underground Grey with Java Brown seats and all the latest technology makes me smile.

Hi Everyone,

Picked up a Meteor Shower 1958 about a week ago. A bit of an upgrade from my 2002 4Runner with 249K miles (still have it). Loving the LC so far!

Welcome to the Jungle! You got the best color....IMO!

Nice color. I wish the 1958 was available in Underground Grey... Our kids took our 4th Gen 4Runner to college which opened the door to adding a LC to the 2002 4Runner and 2006 4Runner "fleet."

Hey All,

Debated for a while between a new 4 Runner, GX 550 and the LC. Decided to purchase a LC, LC edition and walked into the dealership to put money down on one and they had the exact one I wanted. A sale fell through earlier in the week; I was expecting to wait for a while to get one. Well, now I have something for Elk Camp later this year.

Look forward to learning and sharing information on the forum. Photo is not the best, this is from the day we picked it up. It is a Land Cruiser, Land Cruiser with the premium package and 18 inch wheels.

Seems to be the only way to get one without waiting a few months. I'd been eyeing the LC since it was intro'd, but would never order a vehicle without having kicked around one. Just hard to find one on a lot in CA. Found one not far from home that had everything I wanted. Previous sale had fallen through. Great trucks. You'll love it!

Thanks it is awesome. I wish it had better beefy tires though, but easy change.

Hi All! 2 weeks with her… impressive vehicle, very happy with the results…

Hi everybody! New Land Cruiser First Edition owner here. I finally decided to pull the trigger and trade up from my '18 JLU MT Sahara and am so incredibly happy. I've only had it a few days but absolutely love it! Can't wait to do some mods and get it offroad.

[Alex_Prado]

Australian based in Abu Dhabi - hello!

Just picked up my Prado 2 weeks ago, and looking forward to the weather cooling down to go camping and hit the dunes.

In the UAE, it doesn't come with the hybrid—just the 2.4L Turbo—and it doesn't have the factory tow hitch (I have the adventure spec, which is the full-optioned version below the first edition).

But one thing we get is the 7 seats (rear are electric folding)

Look forward to learning more about the prados here.

Cheers.

Good morning team, just introducing myself. I'm a new 2024 LCLC owner, Toyota enthusiast (MKIV Supra owner), and if I was also one of the winners of the Land Cruiser Return from the Ridge Contest (was a good time).

Just wanted to say hi and network with others. Looking forward to the journey.

Awesome site, I'm in Colombia and I actually work in a Toyota dealer. I've had the 150 prado and recently upgraded to the 250. We actually don't get the hybrid powertrain here, but we do get 2.4L gas and 2.8L diesels. Oh and all of them have 3 row seating over here.

Welcome! It would be cool if we could get the diesel option here in the States.

Hi everyone, just introducing myself. I got my LC about a month ago and I just added a hitch bike rack for this weekend's ride... very useful tips found on this forum for that

 

[phillips_th]

New Member from Boulder, CO. My first Toyota! Coming from BMW X3. We tow a smallish trailer (2000lbs) up and down the continental divide. The Beemer, with a blue tooth brake controller (Curt Echo), would have braking issues off and on. I'm still getting used to the Toyota technology, towing and safety features. So far so good.

I sort of have the towing piece figured out. The manual is not the easiest to navigate (no new car manual is very good these days). We also have a hitch mounted bike rack as we'll so will need to figure that out.

I'm sure I can learn a lot from the folks on this forum.
