    LX owners, how do you answer the question 'What do you drive?

    I say LX. And I can see the person picturing a GX. And that’s what you call stealth wealth LOL.

    Just curious, what's your OTHER vehicle?

    I am loving the overlap between members other cars. So cool,

    Don't let them have your 200

    I'm seeing the new GX everywhere. I serviced my LX the other day there were 4 of them in the new car delivery bays. The GX is very compelling. And for not much savings you can have a Landcruiser 250 which feels like it's $30,000 cheaper. At least the 200s the Toyota didn't feel like a massive...

    Don't let them have your 200

    Honestly that 700h Lexus is very appealing to me. It would look good next to my 200.

    '13-'15 LC and '16+ LX - Who owns both?

    Answer: The 13-15 LC is great and the newer LX isn’t that much of an improvement based on your needs. I drive other luxury cars so I’m under no illusion my LX is too nice to get dirty. It’s an LC with some nicer leather, goodies, and dealer network.

    2013 144K sorted and mild mods vs. 2021 44K bone stock

    It's an emotional decision, is this the color and spec you want or do you just like the condition? The poster above makes sense in terms of fleet additions. I'd only replace if this is the exact one you want. I do understand the itch when you find a good condition SUV. Because they're used as...

    2013 144K sorted and mild mods vs. 2021 44K bone stock

    I’d get that 2021. They don’t make em anymore. What the hell are you waiting for? You’re asking this question as if Toyota is never stopping production on 200s. Why not get the best and the latest? The 8 speed transmission is awesome. You can slowly do your mods on the perfect platform.

    200 - Last of a Great Breed

    To be fair, I did the dumbest thing many years ago in my BMW. I curbed my rear wheel by cutting a turn too short...in a Starbucks drive thru. 🙈

    200 - Last of a Great Breed

    I’m already seeing more of the hybrid Landcruisers driving around than I ever saw 200s during its whole lifecycle. We all know it’s about the money. Theres another thing too, in America we have plenty of financing and leasing options. So it encourages consumerism and disposable cars. Toyota...

    200 - Last of a Great Breed

    I sat in a 300 at the dealer after I dropped mine for service. It felt as well built as mine, just with lighter components. I know it goes against what we all love. To be fair to Toyota, I have felt the same thing in every new Porsche model. The new Cayenne's materials even 5 feet away with the...

    200 - Last of a Great Breed

    Everybody has different tastes. I do think the Tesla Model 3 is a marvel though the versatility of that car is just astonishing. Once I build the rest of the fleet out I’m sure I’ll add an electric car. And the role of it will be: the car I drive when I’m stupendously hungover lol, silent...

    200 - Last of a Great Breed

    It’s cyclical, I think in a way there will be more car enthusiasts as we’re going through a similar thing that happened in watches decades ago. I see kids in the future asking us “you let them phase out these incredible machines!? What were you thinking!?”

    200 - Last of a Great Breed

    I think just steering a 200 implies the majority of the hefty feeling.
