I think I saw you, got gas at the same TA station in Sweetwater yesterday?
Not me. I came back 287 to Decator, 380 to McKinney this (sat) am.
Merus was empty, they were getting ready for NYE run.
The 200 is my favorite road trip vehicle so far.
Fuel stop in Wichita

Manual 200 Series do exist, but are not nearly as common as the automatics.

2019 LC200 GX w/ 5 speed manual & barn doors.
Hi from Doha. I recently picked up a 2019 200 series base model GX. It has the v6 engine and a 5 speed manual transmission. This is considered the lowest spec land cruiser 200 available in my local market. No rear locker but it does have active traction control. Large fuel tank (93+45), cruise...

Yes, I'm aware of manuals being available in the 200 outside the U.S., and have a friend who travels to Africa occasionally who has driven them.
But specifically, can anyone verify if there was a manual transmission offered with the 5.7L V8?
If there was, I'd love to order the parts and make the change to my U.S. Spec 200-series.
You can browse all the trims available worldwide at partsouq. It'll take some clicking but you could determine this in 15 or 20 min, maybe less.
My dad took his Cruiser out to Big Bend this past week, sounds pretty cool!
NYE on the border
Overnight in West Texas to break up the drive:
Overnight in West Texas to break up the drive:
Whenever there's a nice Saturday, I take whichever one of my sons wants to go clear some of the fire-hazard underbrush (by hand, only what's necessary). It's great one-on-one time with lots of manual labor (not to mention Buccee's lunch on the tailgate). Each time, the cruiser is able to get further in the property from what was cleared out the previous time.
In the spring beware the Timber Rattlers in that area, Copperheads as well.
Yes, I have a friend who has his own venom extraction business, and he's going to come out this spring to teach me how to safely capture snakes. If they're big enough, he wants them.
We use snake boots or snake leg coverings whenever we're working there, just in case. Although it sounds like they're seldom seen at this spot.
I have friends outside of Paige just to the north of Bastrop and they kill them often. Snake boots are mandatory but gotta also be looking where you reach as well. I only mentioned it because you said you had the kids doing brush removal by hand.
I was there for the week of Christmas my parents live there. 2 inches of snow and a little ice and the tourists are bowling themselves down the hills into each other and into ditches. I had to get out in the 200 to pick up 10 family members stranded in town. The cruiser was sure footed and up to the task it was getting around the traffic and accidents that was the challenge. 1st time cramming that many people in the 200.

Was supposed to be a quick day of wheeling... Someone I became the leaders for triple locked 80s on 37s too.
What’s the story behind that wadded up tire? Too much skinny pedal?

Ripped the valve stem off in a bad spot and had to drive a bit to get to a somewhat okay spot. Having the wheel up against the rock is what mangled it off the rim
