TWILLY

I’ve enjoyed mine thoroughly. Still looking for the right 60/80 to add to the mix though.

Oh totally. Toyota is in the business of making container ships full of cash! 😂😂 Regardless, it’s good win for the Land Cruiser brand.

I read that Toyota sold more 250s last year than in entire decade of preceding 200 sales. So, 10x sales growth. Like it or not, it’s a hit with the car buying public.

Our '92 was mid 20s in late '91. That's mid 50s today; like the 1958. Both have no-frills trim too (which I really like). Hardly a status symbol, but upfit 80s trims soon changed that.

What's kinda interesting is it wasn't really that way if you go a little further back. Mid 90's and prior the Land Cruiser wasn't really a symbol of wealth or luxury. No one I knew back then who was driving a FJ62 or a FJ80 were considered...

Purgatory

I loved my 62 & both my 100s. Their size and drivetrains were nice. I never quite enjoyed the 200 for its heaviness and difficult braking. I hated my 2020 4ROP for all the reasons mentioned previously and it’s steering wobble that wouldn’t go...

Yep. I grew up with a variety of Land Cruisers. I’m 51, and I’ve driven an 80 since I was 17. Driving a nimble brick from the get go surely colors one’s perceptions of trucks. I was (and still am) bummed about the 250’s capacities, but I’m...

I've been doing this Land Cruiser thing since the very late 70s. When the 60 Series came out, the 40 guys called it a station wagon, not an LC. When the 62 Series came out the 60 guys said that "real" LCs had manual transmissions. When the 80...

I doubt many would die on the hill of "the 250 is just as good as the 300." Cleary the 300 (like the 200 before it) was built to a higher spec with beefier parts. As I mentioned, I would prefer a 300. However, I do not want to drive a Lexus...

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?

The land from here to Minnesota is mostly flat and rolling hills. The 250 towed that trailer like a champ at 78-80. It worked between 6th and 8th mostly. If the adaptive cruise was catching up I'd get a 5th gear drop. I was impressed. Very...

My daughter is moving to Rust country so I just gave this one a good coat of WoolWax Drove it a lot this month with her home and I really really still like everything about the 250.

here come the big daddy oligarchs with nothing better to do but lurk and troll on the new Landcruiser peasants :rofl:

Some dirt road cruising to get my kiddo to nap. It worked.

Yes, the stupid little 250 tank can’t bridge the fuel stops of the Dalton. It’s always like 2 or 3 gallons short. And in general on this trip feeding the 250 has dictated all stops not our bladders. It’s always just short of our destination and...

Looks like a fine adventure. You’re winning this thread. Have you needed auxiliary fuel?

Northern most fuel station in the country. Scenic for some.

North slope.

Camped in the Brooks Range last night.

Picked the troopy up from Terrain Tamer. @orangefj45 did the final check and wheel alignment. Replaced the H151 with a H152. I drove it home. First long (100 miles) trip. Love the way it handles. IP needs a bit more tuning. The turbo lags...
