LC 250 & GX550 Picture Thread (60 Viewers)

I suspect that the GX550 will have cupholders in the cargo area, whether you buy a 2-row or a 3-row. Plastic molds are expensive. Having two molds, one with cupholders and one without, plus having to inventory two different parts, would be a needless expense.

I'm not quite sure why you would care, though.

You say that, but the GX460 has two different depth cupholders available for the third row, depending on whether or not you have the ML audio package.

Went to the North Texas Auto Show today and happened upon one of these while parking. Definitely close in size to the 200 but looks slightly smaller in person, at least IMO. Definitely smaller than the 200 inside with interior space being more akin to a 150 or 4Runner. Current 4R has better cargo capacity with second row folded down for sure.

Very helpful comparison of the 250 and 200

Seems like a miss that the 1958 doesn’t come with steelies (even if alloy for weight). Would fit the ethos of the trim much better IMHO. Any good 18” Toyota OEM options other than the old tundra wheels? Can you import the wheels from other markets reasonably easily? Looks like the Middle East is getting steelies per the photo thread.

I have a steelies thread

lets talk TNGA-F OEM steel wheel options

This could be of shared interest between J250 and J300 owners and other possible current and future TNGA-F products. So I know some people like base steel wheels, especially those looking for narrower tires. Toyota has made plenty of 6 lug steel wheels in the past but for now I am focusing on...

I'll update it with the 250 18 inch steelie part number soon.

Good call. They could at least make them optional like the Defender.

Saw this on another site…the Gx550h. Come on TMC, the battery pack layout is the best you can come up with?

Is that 4 or 6 cylinders?

Now we know why they removed the ability for the 2nd row seats to slide back

Looks like the 4 cylinder?

That’s a picture of an LC250, not the GX 550. Look at the grille.

Looks like the 4cyl to me - the GX and LC250 layout is identical as far as I can tell. Note that there's only one intake and air box. All of the TTv6s I've seen have twin air cleaners and intakes.

@vantage78 posted that photo to compare the LC250 to the GX550h posted above.

Yes that’s why it posted it as a comparison to the GX550h engine bay pic. It looks like the LC250’s engine to me, sans the engine cover.

What's the big deal? The family can still fit soccer balls and roller skates back there.

Beach balls — beach ball payload.

This is all so comical. Their packaging folks are terrible. How can this seriously be real?

We've devolved.

Would prefer to have the storage compartments like in the LC250, with a larger flat floor. That 550h could be a pre-production vehicle mind you.

clearly someone DGAF

Dont you start that again..

I believe even the first prototype 250s had the compartments. Seems very odd to me to skip that and have oddly shaped space like the above.
