I have had mine for a few days. Besides feeling like a boomer with all the technology (coming from a 100 series) I am enjoying it. Worked with my local Lexus dealership and paid MSRP and was able to delete most PIO I didn't want. I was #5 on the list and waited about a year after speaking with...

Nice!! Would like to see a full vehicle profile photo with it installed.

I wonder if my girlfriend was the first person to get a flat. What felt nice was the same jack, spare tire, everything setup from my 100 series. Toyota really doesn't like to reinvent the wheel haha.

My old lady took delivery of her FE a few days ago. MSRP and no PIO from a very small dealership in rural Maine. She calls it a fancy 4 wheeler but has enjoyed it so far. We live 2 miles down a private dirt road with a few other year round residents. This winter will be the real test for us. I'm...

Your sales guy doesn't know what he is talking about about. The bridge collapse has nothing to do with your delayed Landcruiser. Ships are scheduled months in advance for there port calls. While ports will be busier because of repositioned ships they wouldn't bump pre scheduled port calls. If...

While the 200 is a grail vehicle for us the general public has no idea or even cares about them. I lost count of the number of times I had someone tell me I had a nice sequoia (100 series).

You might be right and that's why this will be the first vehicle I get with an extended warranty. The amount of tech in the new GX is a bit intimidating.

I'll chime in on this one. This was my 2005 Toyota Landcruiser that I recently sold with 254,000 miles on it. I had it for 14 years and it never once left me stranded. We live in very rural Maine two miles down a privated dirt road with no DOT. What that means is in the winter time it could be...

Hey thanks for this definitely helps! I am putting a set of pack out slides from Tubmate in my new Overtrail+ when it gets here. They build them in Australia so I need to order them now to get them by the time my vehicle gets here...

Looking for cargo length from the back of the seat to the rear door when it's closed. I am looking at a particular set of slide out trays and need 45.5 inches to make it work.

They did the appraisal on my trade in and said they would email the vin# and build sheet to my bank tomorrow.

Got the call from my dealer today that my new First Edition is in the port of Newark. Hopefully delivery within the next week or two. Paying MSRP and no dealer add ons. This is a very small New England Toyota dealer and they expect to only get 2 or 3 this year.

I have a 2005 100 series with 250k on it. Unfortunately it's lived in Maine it's whole life and the rust is finally winning. Im on the list for a GX and I just don't see it the more I run the numbers. I'm leaning towards a 570. Just need to figure out how to not make it look so Lexus like.

This is the way. I am very much leaning towards a 200 series or even an lx570. These prices are getting ridiculous. I'm number 5 on the list at my local Lexus dealer for a GX and they have been mum on price.
