Has anyone on here chatted with Goldboy since last Nov? He hasn’t been active on here, but I’m curious if he’s been in contact with any other members. I did a drive-by of his house a month or so ago and his Sequoia was still there. Tundra was...
I’ve had my share of those things too. K5s with 305 4 speed, Sub with 350/350, Broncos with 351m, F250 with 300 straight 6 and 5 speed, countless 7.3 (all flavors) and 7.5s both ZF5 and E4OD, Cummins both stick and auto. All of them great...
We had a Quick Look at a ‘25 4R today at a local dealer. Back seat is smaller than the 250s, and the rear cargo area on the 4R (ORP Hybrid) was ridiculous. I thought the 250 was low in the back with the battery, but the 4R is about 4-5” lower...
That’s fair. I too found the 4Runner and Tacoma to be unsightly at first both inside and out. But like many other times before I’ve warmed up to the styling. Now I think the 6th Gen just looks like a modern take on the classic 4Runner. Oddly...
I looked up pricing in my area, and a 6G 4R is only $2,000 less than what I paid for my 1958 in comparable trim. I would pay $10k more for the LC to not have to look at the ugly 4R. This is my opinion on the styling of course. I also hind ALL...
I’ve seen a couple of 6th Gen ‘Frunners on the road here lately. None up close and personal, but as they have driven past, my initial impression is that they are low and long compared to the LC. I haven’t looked up the dimensions (and won’t)...
I ran straight 6s and solid axles in my TLCs for 30 years. I was sceptical about the IFS/V8 100 series right up until I drove one. Then I bought one. I suppose it’s human nature to fear change and the unknown.
The brake issue (mine has it) is...
Yup, it’s a good thread once you hit “ignore” on a couple of people. The constant need for 200 owners to come to the 250 section to do nothing but bash and complain is getting really old.
My 1958 with 2.5” lift and 275/70 18s is the perfect...
Here we go again -- it's 200 o'clock. :deadhorse::deadhorse::deadhorse:
Maybe just bump one of the old threads instead of contaminating yet another one?
New member here, so I just wanted to introduce myself and share some thoughts as a new LC250 owner. I’ve spent most of my life in 4Runners (1997, 2001, 2007, and 2017), and while I’ve always admired Land Cruisers, this is the first one I’ve...
I have had 275/70-18 Toyo RT Trails on my 1958 since day two. I look at it like you, with the addition of it is far nicer to drive than my ‘19 Tundra Platinum was, and gets double the fuel economy. It’s also WAY better offroad.
If you are running a dorkel, you kind of need to own it, and go full retard with the Safari.
Are you guys actually crossing water at depths that need one, or in that much convoy dust or just want “the look”? All are valid reasons. My only...
I told them to NOT rotate tires as I had just done it, so all I got was a free wash and the missing rubber bumper on my fuel door replaced with one from the dealership owners personal 250. (I live 2 mountain passes away from the dealership and...
I’m going to admit to being dumb. I missed the button and was doing everything in the settings on the screen. I tried the button thing yesterday and it seemed to work on the one trailer (a skeletonized motorcycle trailer). I’ll try that again...
I have had no issues with mine? Backing up etc no problems and it doesn't matter if the trailer plug is plugged in or not. You hit the car/cone button on the left and it won't emergency brake on you. For all the beeping I silence the screen...
Using the 7 pin on a completed trailer does disable some of the safety stuff, once you clear the screen of warnings of your imminent demise, but mine still has hiccups. Since I move trailers that are just shells daily, it’s an issue. If anyone...
I wonder if the boat is far enough back that it doesn’t feel the need to slam on the brakes? On my 24’ deep vee boat, it sits quite a ways back, so the only thing that would be in close proximity to the sensors would be the tongue. The other...
I’ll say it again. I often have to move trailers with no wiring. I have not tried bikes, but I have successfully backed up with an rv fridge on a hitch rack, but that’s quite narrow. Unlike those stupid racks that hang bikes sideways and block...
