Meh - just looks cool, though I tell myself its a necessity for my next big Safari which will happen any day now….

A few folks have ordered the OEM snorkel and had it forwarded to the US - but it’s complicated and costly. I’m waiting for this to hit the market personally.

Probably best looking/fitting bumper/bull bar I’ve seen so far. Exactly what I’m after eventually. BUUUUT at $3k shipped…I’ll be waiting a few years and hoping they offer some rather large discounts…or someone else comes out with something similar.

This was $15 well spent: Center console organizer. Other than that first big purchase for me was roof rack to make room in the cargo area for cooler/fridge. Albeit not all that creative or much easier to access while driving. Also interested what other have created/found.

I haven’t noticed any issue with removal of the air dams. Don't see how these ones would affect engine cooling given the location, either way, no issues with mine @ 10k miles. May negatively effect mpg and noise but imagine it’s negligible and I haven’t noticed a difference. I’m currently at...

Nailed it.

Poor wording on my end. This was in reference to the inverter in the cargo area - it’s not hot unless you push the “120v A/C”button next to the gas cap button, which you have to do push each start up. The hybrid battery itself chargers off some wizardry I’m not familiar with.

Yep - I like the hybrid, though admit, if they offered the diesel I’d likely have jumped on it. The hybrid is my only “concern” long-term, though the fact it’s a Toyota and they have been making hybrids for decades I’m not all that worried. Not to mention, love the torque it provides; entering...

What lift did you go with? IMO 275/70R18’s w/ 2-3in lift is perfect on these.

It does, just have to remember to flip the switch to turn it on.

Keep up man…he is now TWO weeks in. And as is customary, created another thread to further discuss his additional week of owning the 200 series killer. ;)

Man, someone needs to get in contact with Toyota engineers and marketing team and inform them all they need is “thump” doors to sell MILLIONS of trucks. Seen it posted numerous times as a data point justifying why the 250 is such a hunk of s***. All things considered if we are talking about...

They sold 4900 in January in the US (think it’s LC only, not sure what the 550 numbers are). Not sure how many $60-$75k SUV other manufacturers are selling a month but seems to be selling pretty well. Especially if you take into account the abysmal 200 series monthly sales numbers, albeit the...

Toyota made such a poor decision and produced such poor vehicle that 6-7k people a month (US only) continue to purchase the overpriced hunk of s*** that is the 250. Not sure why they’d do such a thing.

There is a T 17 page thread in the 300/600 section: LX700h announcement - https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/lx700h-announcement.1348340/
