Back in the saddle. 2018 LX (1 Viewer)

Having owned numerous trucks from Mr. Toyoda, I have always been fond on the size, power, and comfort of the 200. I had an 08 that had 200k on it when I sold. A 13 with 114 I really liked and considered keeping. Then the marketing goons started pumping out the info on the GX 550. I sold the LX and bought a new GX to tide me over until the 550 was available. Once the critical real world reviews started piling up, I cooled my jets. SO much so now that I am out on that plan for the foreseeable future.

So I would wait for a local LX to show up and go try to deal the GX and some cash. After missing on a CPO 19 with 33k, I was more determined than ever to get back into an LX. I missed on 3 and finally a 2018 with 65k on it CPO and a 10 year platinum warranty showed up and I jumped.

Now I have always had the luxury packages on the Gas and LXs. It is nice not having a 3rd row, 21 inch wheels, and other stuff I would not use. It has been maintained every 5000 and is ultra clean. I am a very happy cowboy.

Now for tires and wheels. Maybe that is all I do... And make sure the AHC fluid is clean.

Thanks. I think the one thing I'll miss is the Mark Levinson sound that the lux has. My poverty pack sound's just OK. I'm not that into blasting tunes anymore, but I want tit to sound better. I'll have to go down that rabbit hole with research. My future engineer son has never had to go without rear heated seats. I hope he can manage...
He has an FJ- the most stripped down vehicle out there. He can just pretend he's in it.

I am trying to rack my brain as to what tire/wheel combo I did with the 08 and 13. I think one I put almost 34s on the factory 20s, and one I did the 285/70/17 on a set of 17s. Time for the search button again and the 300 page threads.
