A Mini Cooper

It takes some time to get used to the LC200 after driving other SUVs. The braking you describe sounds about right for Land Cruisers. If you suspect something strange, one approach is to test drive a brand new Land Cruiser and see if there is a difference.

Has anyone installed additional sound deadening insulation in an LC 200? I imagine the best gains would be in the doors and ceiling. No, I don't want the LX :)

Ponderous and slow is my thing. Love my LC, but seek a softer quieter ride without sacrificing reliability and build standards. Thinking if I install some 17's and big ol highway tires on an LX, I should have a floating bruiser. Not going to offroad or race the stupid thing. Annoyed that the new...

If Escalade was reliable like Lexus, I would forever buy it over the Lexus.

You laugh but that's pretty much how I drive my LC

Let's see it

Looks super sweet. How is the ride with those? Cabin noise and comfort?

Biggest driver for me is the hydraulic suspension. I want to throw big fat highway tires on it and glide over the Earth.

That's what I'm thinking. Anything the 2015 doesn't have that's available in later models that you wish you had?

Thinking of trading my 2017 LC for an LX. Can anyone comment on the biggest differences between the pre and post 2015 models? Other than the monster grill, are there other major differences in the mechanics or usability of the post 2015 models? Also, any thoughts on the best LX570 model years...

Guys, many thanks to all for the advice, looks like a slightly bigger highway tire on the lower end of the pressure range will be my ticket when it's time to replace the Dunlops. In retrospect, I would still buy the LC over the Lexus. All the extra Lexus fluff is just not for me, especially the...

I probably should have, but once I drove the LC, I had to have it.

Did it make a big difference in the on road comfort?

2017, 24,000 miles. My tire pressure 1-2 PSI lower than what's on the door panel. It helps comfort, but I'm looking to maximize, thinking that smaller rim, thicker highway tire may be the ticket.
