The overall event this past weekend at Longo and In the dirt really showcased the community that is already building around the GX 550!
Longo was an absolutely stellar host for day 1.
Day 2 we took the group out to have some fun in the dirt...
Great shot- it looks so different- and better- than the 460 here (still love the 460 forever though). Can't wait to see/hear how the adventures went. 🤙
Just wrapped an amazing few days in the dirt with the GX550's (and a couple support 460's). TMNA trusted us to take a bunch of community members out for a ride/drive and camping trip north of LA following us the GXperience event at Longo Lexus...
Incognito OT+, Nori Green OT+, Earth OT+ & Emerald White Lux+, not pictured is a Premium+ in incognito. I think they'll be more at the event tomorrow, I've even heard from a fresh owner bringing their OT+.
I'm super partial to the Earth...
If anyone is interested, there is a overland meet up at my local Lexus dealership!

I’ll own that one and if given the chance to re-shoot or had I been given the power to edit/cut, I would certainly not have said any battery will survive the “life” of the vehicle. I fully acknowledge batteries are finite and use, temperature...
This! And really it’s our only real hope at this point. If the 250 continues to build excitement AND fulfills on the hype which turns into sales volume, they could look to more range of options. This will get increasingly complicated quite soon...
Full disclosure, pulling skids won’t be happening at this event. I'll have future opportunities.
You bet, I can make that happen tomorrow. I spent a bunch of time with a tape measure today. I'll grab a "battery loss" estimate tomorrow.

I’ll be around a handful of early production (not prototype) LC250’s this week. What photos would you like?
I’ve got a bunch of things I want to look at closely based on inconsistencies in the dozens of prototypes and...
It’s unlikely that the indicator light is burned out since it takes many years to kill the D light which is illuminated for all those miles showing on your odometer. Couple the fact that your light is not coming on with the unwanted shift from...
Nitro are china made now. I just replaced my front 5.29 with Revolution gears. ordered from Cruiser Outfitters.
Also be ready to buy a new pinion flange as they upgraded from 27 spline to 29.

Thank you. From the general perspective, all of this has some humor because it was just the dash switch. However, there’s 300,000 miles on it and there are a few things on it that need to be toggled a few times to make them work. So this is why I...
Could it be something as simple as hitting the metal stops in a new spot with the suspension lowered? I remember getting some odd noises in my 80 at full lock until I dabbed some grease on them.
Glad you’re on the road! FYI, your evap code will likely prevent you from being able to go into low range.
It’s a good idea to have a simple OBDII scanner on board (can be a cheap autozone or amazon one) that is able to clear codes. If one of...
