Toyota will sell enough of these things under both names to make it worth their time. Why do you guys keep questioning their decision making? It seems to be working to me, but my only evidence is they continue to sell more vehicles every year and turn huge profits.
Good god. The RR is a 5-seat POC. You can't compare a 8-seater to a 5.
Your RR specs are also in 4-low range (not Toys).
Good lord.
Because the Seq rides and drives like a POC. Upscale owners would never settle for a Seq and Toyota knows it.
Screw the lockers and diesel. There will be a lift and ARB locker soon for this and we get all the improvements not found on a Seq or other SUV. WIN WIN for Toyota.
More pics Zart! More pics! 
I laugh at the comparisons of this Cruiser to the 80-series. My god.....it's not the stone age.
As far as the constant negatives.....cost. Some cannot afford one and therefore SOME trash it.
Hell, I can probably get a sweet deal on an '07 LX !! Once I drive an '08 LC/LX I'll most likely like it. And remember....When you are driving it, you can't see how ugly it is !!!
Unfortunately for me the nearest LR dealership is 150 miles away. Having to take a car out of town for service is a pain. That's the only reason I ever considered a LC over the RR in the first place. If I had a local LR dealership I wouldn't give the LC a second thought. I have had 3 RR's and they have all been very good. Bash LR all you want, LC's cannot touch a RR for panache. You can't beat me in this ..I own LR's and LC's and I like them both but Toyotas are not in the same "class" as LR's. And a Lexus is just a dolled up Toyota. RR's are a higher end vehicle than a LC...Period !!Until I own a LR that is unreliable I'm not going to change my views on this.
In a perfect world Toyota would sell a modern solid axle vehicle without all the "comforts". Oh wait, they do, just not in this country!
I'll be buying mine used
Maybe 4 years of depreciation and I can have one too
I never thought I would see a Sienna off roading! 
Thanks for the pics!
Thanks for the pics!
To better state my point......for example, the rediculous Sienna comments.....
If those postees had this new Cruiser sitting in their driveways they'd shut up. But when you can't (or don't) make it happen....it's easy to put the thing down.
That might be true for some, but not all.
sorry for the rant but all you have to do is looks a basic economics and you'll see it.
We're based on the stock market T.M.C CAN NOT make less money annually
something(I forgot) would DEvalue.
sorry for the rant...GO TEAM!!!

We are so smart!

cost what they do........VALUE we go through ca...SUV's like babies do diapers,,,throw them away like disposable razors, is that other countries habits as well? GD! ask any foreigner they will tell you how EASY it is to travel in this country (its all under pavement!), and you cant keep a car or make it last 1-200,000mi?
Workers
Shippers
dealers
salesmen
insurers
parts
mechanics..........................money is circular, goes in comes out, round and round like a snow ball!

who the hell buys to keep?.......po folks!
But then again stock value and making money in a Hawaiian shirt sipping on a drink with an umbrella is more important!

Well, I take that personally...
As a matter of fact, if that thing was in my driveway, I would sell it and use the money for a NICE 60 series. Why? Cuz I'm old school. I could care less how much it costs, I would not buy it.
Anything else you want to say about the "postees?'

:shotts:
ok i might get laughed at for this especially from the hardcore off roaders here but hey when you go to a parking lot I can pick out a lc or and lx in a minute same goes for the range rover and from any side of the vehicle with this new one except for the size it does look like a sienna or a rav 4. and if you are spending 70K on a vihicle you dont want it to look like everything else
and Toyota reliability trumps everything the RR has to offer.
That much money for a SUV? Everything had better work perfectly for the amount of money being spent. Toyota reliability all the way.
"Half the Land Rovers made are still on the road today...the rest made it home"
Whatever, you are putting Toyota on a pedestal where there is only one way it can go. Some of you would buy a turd if it said Toyota on it !!
