Would be interested to see an LX600 over 300,000 miles on just regular unleaded and see for a fact what’s what. Have there been any yet? That reply seems like stating facts regarding the fuel. Have any of these TTV6’s been past 200k in any body yet? LS, Tundra, LX etc?

💯. We are saying the same thing, I was being sarcastic. There are plenty of threads in the 100 section of 2nd/3rd owners having to deal with issues that the 1st owners created through either willful or unknowing (depending) neglect of the vehicle in the first 100k.

Good call, it looks like it is diesel. https://longrangeautomotive.com.au/Toyota-Landcruiser-300-Series-140L-Auxiliary-Tank-Is-Here~31539

If you are not keeping it past 150k-200k then you may never have any issues. Might as well not change transmission fluid , AHC fluid, or diff fluid while at it to help save money.

I just googled this and LRA announced a 160L aux tank that requires you to relocate the spare.

While the tow vehicle changed I went with a 77” x 12’ single axle. Love the concept and will update my experience of an SUV + trailer combo.

Thanks to everyone who followed this thread, purchased a Yukon XL to replace the Hundy today. If anyone is interested in that adventure I started a thread in chit chat section.

Made my choice, drove it home today. Started a new thread in chit chat section if anybody is interested.

I am keeping the 600 on the list as well. As my Service Advisor pointed out in 2035 the LX600 will still be available or just the previous generation still with plenty of technicians trained semi-recently and faults well known as well as fixes

Yes, in my previous post a 2020 or 2021 LX570 is one of my finalists. I’ll try these setting adjustments in my wife’s car and see how it reacts. For me, it is an extremely frustrating experience for no reason. When trying to turn right onto a busy street I will press the gas to get my vehicle...

Things coming back around on this topic. While lending the hundy out to family and A/C went out 😢. Took it to dealer and hundy was completely out of refrigerant. Refreshed, and (temporarily) holding pressure. No obvious signs of leakage, leading me to think it might be the evaporator. I’ve...

Lending the Hundy out to daughter in law while her car is getting repaired, and all of a sudden AC stops working, lol. Took it in, recharged and holding pressure (was empty). Will take in when she is done with it. And then today comes over and the gasket on top passenger side of windshield is...

Agreed on all counts, growing up in a horse and moto family I am used to having (and owning) duallies around. Being of the mind I will just rent a truck when I need one (I haven’t in about a decade), I am looking at a small Big Tex. Will just make sure it is large enough to haul 2-3 full size...

Having lived in Carson City, and family members living outside Yosemite (Mariposa), you will probably get more off-roading in NV than CA. As long as your hundy has been properly maintained you should pack a scan tool of some sort. Also, bookmark the Caltrans website, use this the day before...

Now that I’m back into “homeowner” mode, I’ve decided to get a trailer instead of a truck for all that stuff. I saw a thread here previously which originally swayed me this way, can’t seem to find it. In any case, I like having one less vehicle to maintain and keep up with. For those that...
