Yes, I’m in Durango!
Cool, I'll keep my eyes open for you so I can check it out. Did you get it form Durango Motor Co?

Thanks! I don’t think it’s possible without cutting some brackets on either side of the spare. Even with that you’d be close to the panhard bar. I’ve seen one on IG with the new KO3 in LT275/70R18 - 33.2” according to BFG. They said it fit with not mods. I’m not sure a 34 would fit. I’ll try to drop the spare later this week and dig a little deeper.

Thank you for the response and pics. Based on the pics, I wouldn’t go much larger under there. Looks like it would get to close to the exhaust. Thanks again, it’s a beauty.
 
Fill 'er up. Fortunately they had premium ;)

With all due respect to Lexus, in this case, those fuel pumps steal the show. 😊

Agreed. The 'station' is actually an AirBNB and one of many rad little spots in this town (Helper).

Better pics (not mine) from Google

One of our club members took a peak at the window sticker and noticed the price for the cool Toyota light.
Only $469.00. 😁 ( I know, you really can’t put a price on cool)

Saw my first GX550 OT in person yesterday. Wife and I were checking out an open house and the 550 drove past going the other way through the neighborhood heading towards the golf course (goes without saying, really). I've been a fan based on the pictures but it looks fantastic in person.
 
Pros:
The whole enchilada.

Cons:
1. Stupid VSC etc system unavailable message that won’t stay away in 4Lo. Maybe there’s a setting but haven’t found it yet. Bloody hell, I want to see my tire pressure or my trans temp instead of that message. Pain to clear every 10 seconds.

2. Downshifting doesn’t do much to hold her back. Be it 4Lo or on the highway. 1st in low range doesn’t slow it down much on a moderate slope.

3. Ground clearance. I know I can fix this and will, but come on Toyota. 9” stock would’ve been nice.

That "back arrow" makes me think you should be able to clear or acknowledge that message?

The ground clearance on the 1958 is almost certainly less than the Toyota spec, given the 1958 has smaller tires than the LC Edition or the FE.

I do think it's cool how the shape of the 250 is a throw-back to the 90 series Prado. Just a bit sharper lines.

Yes, it clears but pops up again after 10 seconds or so.
This is should be something they can resolve with a software update. There is probably some legal mandate from either a govt or Toyota's internal lawyers that says they have to tell the driver when that stuff is turned off, but they've picked the most annoying way to do it. In my 460, switching to 4Low will show the TCS Off message on the gauge cluster center screen for a few seconds and then just turn on the TCS light on the dash.
