    2017 LC windows fogging up, dealer can't find the problem. *****UPDATE*************

    Took an hour to put in this morning (I was moving slow). Video for repair was helpful - just a few differences due to newer model (an extra footwell light and lighted sill plates). I'm anxious for some humid, cool weather to enjoy my fog free windows! Thank again to the forum and to...

    Got the piece in the mail today. Thank you, ONEngineering! Color is green now! Looking forward to getting it in this evening after a fogged up commute this morning! Seth '21 LC200

    2017 LC windows fogging up, dealer can't find the problem. *****UPDATE*************

    Had this exact problem (high level of condensation on interior windows). Read this thread yesterday - took a look at the flap. Sure enough, the door is flopping around and 'cracked' on the passenger side hinge. Pisses me off since all service has been done at the dealer and they are the only...

    200 series best highway tires

    Appreciate this topic string - pushed me over the decision line. Ordered Defender LTX MS2 275/65/18 and having them installed on Saturday. I'm sure I could squeeze another 10-15k miles out of the OEM Dunlops but I really dislike them (loud, squeely and slippery). I'm looking forward to my new...

    Quick comparison to rental '23 Denali

    Don't know if these are really direct competitors (since the LC200 isn't on sale anymore), but I rented a '23 Denali so thought I would share my thoughts: - when approached, the 'push the small button on the handle' way to lock/unlock the Denali feels cheap compared to the 'grab handle and it...

    LC200 Out of its element!

    The Tail of the Dragon has photographers perched along the route who take pictures of everything coming by. Then, you can go to their website and buy copies (in better resolution and without the watermarks on these). Seth

    LC200 Out of its element!

    So, heading back from Georgia, Google Maps routed us down the Tail of the Dragon. The big girl wallowed thru the curves OK. Yes, I know I'm riding the center line too closely - like I said, she handled OK, not scary but not exactly confidence inspiring. There is some lesson here about using the...

    How bad is your gas mileage?

    At 20k miles in my '21 LC200 - my mpg results are fairly consistent 14-15 mpg around town (driving like i have somewhere to be and keeping up with traffic flow) 16-17 mpg on highway at 75 mph (probably the happy spot for this vehicle from air flow noise and road feel perspective) 15-16 mpg on...

    Fairing-mounted LED lightbar for full-length roof rack, or not?

    i love my high mounted light bar - i have a few miles of very dark road to get back to my house and it lights everything up. mine is just the light bar across the front of the standard roof rack and it is mounted almost flush with the roof. it's fine in light rain, useless in fog as...

    Great HWY mpg…

    I consistently get 15 around town and 16-17 on the highway (16 at 80mph, 17 at 70mph). The mpgs are so consistent that I hardly even look at it anymore - just make sure the range pops up to 310-330 miles when I refill. Seth '21 LC200

    $87k tradein value for an '21 LC?

    Followup detail - written offer of $83k from dealer on trade ('21 LC, blk/brown, 11k miles). Maybe could have squeezed another $1 or 2, but I'm keeping the LC. What would I replace it with that isn't overpriced (as others have pointed out)? Seth '21 LC

    $87k tradein value for an '21 LC?

    So, just for grins, I put in my '21 LC into Kelley Blue Book to see what the trade in value is. It came back with $87-90k! I leased this vehicle in November of last year and my lease buy out is $77k. These are really weird times if I have $10k 'equity' in a vehicle lease after 9 months. Is...
