My 98 LC that i gave to my son was noticeably responsive than my 2000 LX and my former 99 LC. The 0 to 60 times that you provided makes sense. My wife can even tell the difference
Be sure and post pictures of what you buy so I can keep a look out and avoid you if see you on the road.
Yep. And they park in the left lane making me wish I had a turret with a .50 cal on it. I mean, I drive a tank so might as well have it armed! 'MERICA!!!
Interesting some say they don't notice a difference between the early 100 vs the 06-07 but do notice difference between a 100 and 200.
0-60 difference between early 100 and 06 is 1 second whereas difference between 06 and 200 is 1.5 seconds.
Speed difference between early 100 and 200 is almost 3 seconds.
You know what I'm talking about.
I got rammed from behind in FT Collins a few weeks ago while just sitting in traffic so speed is not the only problem.
I was in a rental Dodge Promaster that had 29 miles o it when I picked it up in Mo. and was hit by a Ram PU and then he was rammed by a Kenworth Dump Truck!
Good Times.
I have noticed that people just do not seem to grasp what the left lane is supposed to be about?
The way the lanes are marked there sure does little to help either and on the way back I tried stay on I-70 east but literally could not make sense of the Express lanes and the normal lanes at the I-25 split?
Either way though people were just loafing along in the hammer lane oblivious and/or cocky about anyone else on the road with them.

I love land cruisers myself, and have two. But I don't know if that statement is that accurate. A Ford F-150 would tow more, get there faster, has higher ground clearance stock, and have been known to go a million miles. Which part is unstoppable about the Land Cruiser? Asking because I want to know.
If you own two land cruisers and still don't understand why they are more "unstoppable" than an f-150, I'm not sure you ever will, even with a most descriptive and specific answer as to why.
Stock ground clearance and towing capacity would not be major factors in this comparison.
Why not answer if you know? I have my reasons for owning them. Don’t look deeper into my question that it needs. Just curious to hear what your reasons are for that statement.
These numbers are too far apart for me to take them seriously. There's no way you're losing 2.8 seconds in a 1/4mile, let alone in 0-60. These are slow vehicles, no doubt. 11.4 seconds 0-60 is "can't merge into traffic properly" slow though.
Back to your original post, the differences in accelleration is all about Gearing. 98 & 02 had 4.30 rear end. 98 & 99 didnt have Atrac euther. This may have had an effect on early models with better off the line acceleration.
If you really want performance- the 100 is not the right selection. You could install part time 4wd kit and regear for more lively acceleration but we’re limited to an under horsepowered heavyweight truck.
If you want sport performance 4wd- buy a supercharged range rover or supercharged LR4.
