All of our other LC run K02. Debating on trying something else.

I've heard great things about the Nitto Terra Grapplers. They're well mannered for highway use ,and are plenty capable off road, and for most trails here in Socal. My $0.02 vs the cookie cutter KO2s.

Anyway, grats on the new whip.

Yeah I would like to get away from the cookie cutter for a change in my life!


Interestingly the Ridge Grappler XL is 47lb. The Terra Grappler G2 XL is 52 lbs.

Great score! I love these early 200 series. I think they are the best looking ones of them all. How's the one on the farm holding up to farming abuse?
I actually think the 08-11 are the worst loooking and the 16+ are the best looking. Hehe.

The farm one we have had since new. It was leased by wife, then bought by the LLC and lives on the farm. Very hard life (towing), abused (interior), but mechanically holding up fantastic.

HA funny how that works. Glad to hear it's holding up well. Excited to see what you do with this one.
 
What a find and what a price…congrats! And a local Los Angeles member to boot!

I’m much newer to Lexus/Toyota but it still makes me pause when I see you guys casually list mileage like 240k, 375k, 730k(!). How long into cruiser ownership should I expect to stop doing a double take? 🤣

I've got the Ridge Grappler on mine and am very happy with them.

Could you share details on the cargo cover?
Sure. I did a bunch of late night research. Seems like Husky or the OEM was the most recommended. After going back and forth between them (how it tucks in the front the 3rd row), I ended up going with the OEM one. I am debating getting the Husky for the front and the middle.

Currently car has all OEM carpet.

EDIT: I should not have said "cover" but the mat (one that goes on the floor, not one that hides the cargo)

Ahh thought it was the one that hides the cargo. Looking for some sort of solution for a cargo cover and I don’t like any of the solutions in the handful of threads on here.

But I ended up going with the OEM cargo mat too and its served me well.
