So I might be getting an office promotion which means I will have to give up my work truck and get my own reliable wheels. It has been a decade or so since I had to commute to work under my own financial means and all I have is a fairly built fj55 to drive right now. Work is less than 30 miles so mph is not an issue.
So, I got the Mrs on board with (another land cruiser?) as she says. I was looking at 80s and lx450s. I found a 96 lx450 at a dealership in my price range and It has 146k miles. Don't know about lockers but It's not a deal breaker at this time. Is there anything I should be looking for in terms of problematic items or indicators of future problems? I know they are reliable but every truck has an Achilles heal. Also is there any advantage one has over the other, 80 or lx450?
Thanks in advance.
