5000 Mile Report

[Moretruck]

I have 5000 miles on my 2020 LC and my summery would be: Anybody who can afford one should buy one.

Love:
Ride and body stiffness/composure
5.7 smoothness and performance
The tailgate...its the best particularly with covid - pick up the food and picnic on the back with a view
Quietness...amazing
Build quality - of course no issues

Not so great:
The seats...wondering if I should have purchased the Lexus. I haven't compared them, but assume they are better - thoughts appreciated here.
Nav screen - pretty out dated

I installed the Escape Gear seat covers which work really well, else, its stock. Its stored now for the winter and I miss driving it.

Whats not great about the seats?

I am assuming that you stored it for winter cause you don't want to mess it up as in rust, accidents, etc... as opposed to you do not trust it for winter driving. Any way glad you are happy with your purchase.

Whoa, be careful, if you badmouth the Nav/Infotainment here you will get beat up. When I mentioned it was outdated on my LX I was met with "Why do you even own one, you should sell it" and told I "didn't understand the target audience for these vehicles"

Just a word of warning, some members here have their entire personality tied into these trucks and dissent will not be tolerated.......

The LX seats are better and, I know they officially don't according to the specs between the LC and LX, but I feel like there is more leg room in the LX also.

Reminds me of the time I said I preferred lockers to CRAWL control... good times.
@Moretruck Good summary, glad you're enjoying your vehicle. They're not perfect, but they are a unique combination of attributes that doesn't really exist elsewhere in the market.

Lockers!?

That's even more blasphemous then pointing out the infotainment is woefully outdated.

Where in Michigan? There are getting to be a few of us 200 owners in the Great Lakes State.

Seat comfort is too individual to comment on. I've thoroughly enjoyed mine for 10 times your miles at 50,000.

I cover my nav screen with an iPad Pro when on trips, which is most of the time.

Why garage it in the winter? It's not a 40.

We are lucky enough to spend winters in the south, so I leave it up North and don't have to drive it in the salt. I sure miss it now though. Just yesterday, I had got breakfast to go and ate it standing beside my car thinking...man it should would be nice to have my LC now with the tailgate down.

Sounds like you need two LCs!

The truth in this statement is at 11. This comment should be posted as a sticky...

Here is the thread if anyone is interested. Lots of gatekeeping going om.

My wife is ready for a newer car as her Yukon XL is 14 years old. It has been a great family car and I would buy one again but the bad press on the newer Yukon’s are not promising with transmission, electrical, and even frame issues. I’m a Toyota/Lexus guy at heart so I am pulling for a 200...
