Probably a good situation to be in since I can afford it but still a hard choice. I have a well maintained 2003 LC with 220K miles and zero rust. I'm the original owner. It has Slee step sliders, Bora spacers. It's my daily driver and I still love driving it.
So now that Toyota will no longer sell LC's in the US after 2021 and stock is dwindling I'm thinking I should jump on a new one while I can. Probably go for a Heritage Edition if I can find one to have a 5-seat model. Any fender bender would probably total my 100 and I would not be able to get a new one at that time. And sorry if I offend anyone, but I find the Lexus grill one of the ugliest things I have ever seen on a large vehicle so I would not be getting one of those.
I have driven a friends 2018 LC so I know how they drive and I doubt the 2021 is really any different. They aren't sold in my area so I need to go a couple hours away (Sacramento) to test drive one.
If I got a new one, I would likely keep the 100 and start building it more for off-roading.
Opinions? What are others doing with this situation?
Thanks,
Chris
