Air Down Gear Up
Supporting Vendor
Hello!
My name is Kyle Bell and I am the Co-Founder of Air Down Gear Up. I recently joined the 200 community with a 2016 LX570 and wanted to share my build!
The Purchase:
I knew I wanted a post-face lift 570 and was able to locate a vehicle with the right list of features, price, mileage, color etc. in Ogden Utah. This happens to be one of my old stomping grounds from when I was racing Xterra triathlons, so I was excited about flying out to pick it up.
I never had any complaints about the 100LC off-road so the upgrade to the 570 was almost exclusively motivated by improved highway performance, power, 8speed transmission, a heavy sprinkling of luxury and the upgraded suite of safety features. Starting my time in the 570 with a highway road trip was great, felt like I was piloting a spaceship for the first few miles. I achieved what is almost certainly some sort of land speed record from Ogden Utah to Erie CO, but since i'm unclear what the statue of limitations for speeding is, I won't get into specific times. haha.
A few pics from when I got the 570 home. Had to introduce her to the fleet!
Coming up! The plan:
