Here we go again -- it's 200 o'clock. :deadhorse::deadhorse::deadhorse: Maybe just bump one of the old threads instead of contaminating yet another one?

Looks like a fine adventure. You’re winning this thread. Have you needed auxiliary fuel?

Sun visors would be useful in the Southwest. I have a lazy and reluctant lobbying effort for others to maybe mock one up.

Interestingly, LC 250 is outselling 4runner (by a hair). 2025 sales through May: 24,451 Land Cruisers 24,358 4Runners https://carbuzz.com/toyota-land-cruiser-outselling-4runner-may-2025/

The hybrid Traveler is compelling. Off road chops (but we'll see about flex). 2000 lb payload. 500 miles of range. Decent cargo volume. Nice configuration (tailgate, hatch). Reliability is of course unknowable, but those are top-of-class off-road touring wagon capacities and specs. A...

Good question. I’ve been wondering the same. The second generation, as I understand, corrected a few initial problems and is now (so far) reliable, powerful, and very efficient.

I think you can get one fabricated for that much too.

Beautiful day for a little photo excursion in the backyard with Mrs. Twilly and @kelly saad.

I’ve got a 25 gallon sub tank (50 total) on one of my 80s and have gotten deep into its capacity on trips in Mexico, Nevada, and Utah. If you’re working, living, or touring in remote areas, multi-hour detours or round trips just to buy gas are wasteful of time, money, and fuel. I used nearly a...

That's the list except payload. He forgot payload. I'm curious to see if Toyota makes mechanical changes next year. The 80 series saw major mechanical changes at two year intervals, in 1993 (engine, transmission, transfer case, rear disc brakes) and 1995 (transmission, exhaust, supercharger)...

Exactly. Thanks for the replies, guys. Appreciate it. Perhaps see you this evening to discuss more, @peacesells63.
