    Ventillated Seat Performance Degrade

    I've had the same issue with my '17. Seat ventilation worked great early on and is now hardly noticeable except for the loud fan noise. One interesting thing I noticed though is if I put my hand in front of the bottom seat vent, it is blowing air OUT. It seems like it should definitely be...

    Turning On Rear TVs Without Remote

    Hi, I recently installed Apple CarPlay using the EC Offroad Android module. It works fantastic and the install wasn't that tough. It can install any Google app (such as Netflix) and uses an HDMI cable to run video to the rear TVs. Unfortunately I have lost the remote. Is there any way to turn...

    Importing LC300 to USA

    I would theoretically be quite happy with the LX600, except that the current LX570 is clearly less off-road oriented (even if the underlying car is the same) and extremely ugly (imo) compared to the LC200 and I don't expect that to change for the new gen. Honestly was mostly interested in the...

    Importing LC300 to USA

    Haha ok well I think that sounds like a resounding "no, not worth thinking about". What a shame, I love my 200 but it is just so outdated and increasingly so every year. I like that the 300 seems to have left the things that make the 200 great mostly alone and improved on everything else. And...

    Importing LC300 to USA

    Is it remotely feasible to try and import a 2022 LC300 to the US? I understand it is likely expensive, but if the car already costs $90k it may not be a large % of that number. Just trying to understand if this is even worth thinking about. If so, where should I start and would anyone be...

    (Yet another) Tire Recommendation - Light Offroad/Highway

    As requested, here is my feedback on these General Grabber APT P275/70R-18 on a mostly stock 2017 LC200. Ride: These seem to be very quiet, maybe slightly louder than the stock Dunlops or my Blizzak snows, but after 2 miles I don't notice the difference. Ride is slightly firmer, although not in...

    (Yet another) Tire Recommendation - Light Offroad/Highway

    Thanks, I read the reviews in the forum, seems to be exactly what I am looking for. I will have them put on this week and report back with a review. Appreciate the help!

    (Yet another) Tire Recommendation - Light Offroad/Highway

    Thanks! Yes I agree with your assessment. The Grabber APT looks like a great option - has the rugged blocks and larger 70 sidewall without being an LT tire.

    (Yet another) Tire Recommendation - Light Offroad/Highway

    Hi, I know there are a ton of tire recommendation threads here, and I've spent the last two days reading most of them. But there are so many tire options out there I wanted to ask the forum specifically. I have a 2017 LC200 that I mainly drive in the mountains and on highway, with some light...

    LC200 General Ownership Questions

    Hi, I've had my 2017 LC200 for almost a year now and a couple things have come up that I was hoping the forum could help with. I've searched around but they are pretty specific issues I haven't been able to get an answer to. 1. Ventilated Front Seats - the ventilation feature on both front...

    AT Tires - Non Snow

    Hi, I have read a number of threads on tire recommendations for the 200 but none of them seem to answer my more specific question. What are the best-performing AT tires when it comes to highway noise and ride quality? I am looking to get a set of Method NV wheels and some more off-road suited...

    For Sale Most recent 200 Series purchase prices

    What price do you think is reasonable for a lease trade-in, 1 owner 2017 LC w/ 50k miles? Is $60k too high? KBB says $55-60k.

    Land Cruiser Speeds/Performance

    0-60 speeds are simply indicative of the overall acceleration and responsiveness of the car....and acceleration is still important on the highway. I-70 is a nightmare of twists and turns and I like to be able to get past some FWD no-snow tire POS that's about to careen across the interstate. I...
