Good afternoon!

Purchased my 200 last March with 106k and currently have 114k

We have a baby on the way in February, so trying to knock out any upcoming maintenance to avoid any bs :) ….In the last year have had the following addressed, some proactively

-water pump, starter, radiator, thermostat, fan clutch, fan bracket, trans fluid, lubricate driveshaft and retorque
(all done by the car care nut at TCCN, I’m lucky to live an hour away)

-all rotors and pads done by my local mechanic, along with ALL fresh fluids all around
-2 new oxygen sensors
-air filter, cabin filter, drive belt

-prior to my ownership the Toyota was a certified car, had some things like the drivers door lock done, trans reflash, along with routine oil changes and maintenance
-2023/2024 had the spark plugs done as well as the battery

Pretty sure I’ve covered majority of things and have gotten ahead. Let me know if there’s anything I may have missed :)! Only thing I wish I could get is better mileage lol 😉

Getting ready for a baby...you need seat covers to protect the leather! Toyota Land Cruiser 2nd Row Seat Full Coverage - https://www.canvasback.com/toyota-land-cruiser-2nd-seat-full-coverage.html
 
Rest up now 😂
 
Head gasket, car seat, diaper change pad...
 
Congrats! We did the baby mod too about 6mo ago. The tailgate makes for a fantastic changing table when out and about. These are pretty reliable rigs, I wouldn't worry.
 
Starter + TCCN? I guess you stuffed a load of cash between his arms
