Pretty Truck! How'd you score the mudflaps?

Can't speak for him, but I swapped mine out for a Yakima pair after my roof box seemed to bounce some on the OE bars. Not a ton, but some. Also, with width of the Jetstream bars I can carry the roof box and my fly rod rack at the same time without having to swap them out.

You don't have any pictures by chance, do you? My windshield could use replacing, and the rivnut idea has always been interesting to me.

Looks just like my driveway, no regrets.

When I was at BMW there was an issue with the I6 in the X5 where the serpentine belt would go (typically from fluid on the belt), and get pulled into the sump and wrap around the crank. Had to have the tech explain it to me about 5 times.

Land Cruiser of Theseus?

Mine has been off/on daily driver for about 15 years now. At 300k miles I just anticipate one large ticket item annually (steering rack, MC/ABS, radiator). Despite having the 250 as the "House Car" now I still take the 100 just about everywhere. I never hesitate to load up the family/dogs/stuff...

@shane431 Happy to pay it forward! Happened to drive the 100 today and got a break in the rain. Hardest part about the application for me was maintaining a straight line, it's a little awkward on the first one.

Update: Did the Amazon special over the weekend. Drove her to work this morning, 75 or so for 15 miles. Could be my mind playing tricks on me, but I'm hearing much less wind noise than before and more road noise from the rear wheel wells. Time to deaden those... Thanks @Unrulykid !

What rack system is that? I'm thinking about moving my Yakima crossbars to the 250 for the fly rods and doing a platform for the 100 for fishing, box, etc... The feet look very OE

Question on the mats, How close of a match are they to the dash? Is that the same color as the dark brown/olive that the two tone tan interiors on the LC have? I ordered a set of grey mats from a dealer that are nowhere close, so they're collecting dust.

Wow, those update the look in a big way. I need to search for some for my '01 LC...

Thanks guys, sounds like I've got about 3 gallons left when I'm filling up. The biggest flub on their end is the little tank. 19mpg is fine, no complaints there. But the tiny little tank just doesn't cut it. I wonder if one day someone will figure out how to get the GX tank in there. 20+ gallons...

Last few tanks were about 275 miles (refueled at about 250, with 25 or so showing "remaining"). Dash display shows about 18.5 MPG over the lifetime of the car so far. Has anyone been able to eek out 300 miles? We commute 40 miles every day, 35+ of it is highway at 70mph or so. Feels wrong that...

Beautiful. It'll be almost 80 here this weekend (in January...) so I'll let her cook. Thank you!
