    TBH, I'm not too concerned about the ability off road - the LC has always been a daily driver so we've been doing trails that don't put it at too much risk, nothing an AEV Ram can't handle. The big concern, really the only concern, is the lack of a 3rd row and the comfort of the kids. I'm torn...

    For anyone curious, I got an email this morning from the Lovells distributor: “Good Morning...My apologies for the delay...it was a holiday weekend in Australia. Unfortunately Lovells doesnt have the product on the shelf at this time. The kit should be available to ship Early June. The Kit...

    I've pretty much decided to sell the LC and buy a Ram 2500 with the Cummins. The AEV 3" lift lets you go up to 40" tires and retain stock geometry. Payload lets you throw in bikes, canoe, kitchen sink...

    Thanks! It’s so perfect for how/where we camp. Honestly, it’s the only thing that would make me consider getting rid of the LC.

    Well, it’s a 1200 lb Equl-izer 4-point hitch. The GVWR is what it is.

    Went to a certified scale today. I got there with 10 minutes left before they closed so I was rushing and probably missed a few measurements. I had gone to this scale a few months ago to weigh the LC with me and a full tank of gas in it (6,260 lbs.). Scale numbers below - LC with me in it and...

    I stopped at a Ford dealership this afternoon to look at the F150. It really hits all the spots: comfortable 2nd row, 36 gallon tank, max hitch weight of 1,222 lbs., turbo... Here’s a question though: LC max tow = 8,500 lbs LC max hitch = 850 lbs F150 max tow = 12,220 lbs F150 max hitch =...

    Toyota USA emailed me to say 850 for both dead and wdh. "Thank you for contacting Toyota Motor Sales, U.S.A., Inc. We appreciate your inquiry concerning capacity of the different hitches. Per our product specialist, there are no differences based on which hitch is used. The capacities will...

    I guess I'll reserve my decision till I can get it on a scale for true weights. Maybe that scale is off. The addition of propane, batteries, etc. would have increased the tw, but you're right, 1,200 lbs. seems like a lot. I got the exact weights for my unit from an ORV engineer who looked up the...

    I have considered that as well...seems logical but pricey considering insurance, registration, etc. Ugh. I seriously wish the RAM 2500/3500 with the Cummins had the F-150 interior. I would then sell the LC and get one of those. That stupid cutout on the RAM Crew Cab in the middle of the 2nd row...

    Thanks for your input...I keep waffling between trying to turn the LC into a more tow worthy vehicle and just getting a truck specifically designed to tow. Part of the problem is that either option has to be my daily driver and I'd rather not tool around Southern California traffic and parking...

    I don't get how the max hitch weight can be 850 with or without WDH...isn't that the point of a wdh?? Other manufacturers list two maximums, one with WDH and one dead weight.

    I haven't had a chance to take it to a certified scale yet to verify, but I did measure tongue weight with a Sherline scale designed to do so. It read 1,200 lbs. That's not a reflection of gross weight necessarily as I made the decision to put 4 batteries on the tongue (that's close to 250 lbs.)...

    I don't have a pic and the trailer is currently back at the dealership as they screwed up the placement of the hitch latches on the frame. I have a 4 battery box (hence the excessive tongue weight) and the way it's positioned interfered with the required 29" back of hitch ball. Instead of...
