Excited to start my build thread on my new to me Lexus LX470.
Backstory: We like to explore in the mountains and used to off road frequently on atvs and rzr's. After selling our rzr a few years back since we were expecting a child. Wanting offroad in a milder manner and camp we took the wife's car, a 2004 Tahoe 4wd. It worked well but wasn't perfect and was aging since we owned if for close to 8 years. I wanted to get my wife into something newer, safer, and in something that shouldnt break down. We debated on what our final car stable would be for a while weather it be older suv and newer truck or older truck and newer suv. One vehicle that wasnt going away any time soon was my fun toy car, a 2005 Cadilllac CTS-V. In the end we decided buy my wife a newer truck, a 2016 Chevrolet Silverado crew cab 4wd back in December. During the research i fell back in love with teh LC100's, and knew i would ahve to have one as my daily and trail rig. We decided to sell the tahoe and get a LC100, more reliable and better suited to exploring off road. I wanted a 2005+ in red, green, or blue with an extensive serive history without rust. I found a few i liked jsut not at the right price point. Searched for months and found a few here and there, I would save them and beofre commiting they would sell. Finally a push to buy one, my frined calls one day and asks for me to join him teh following day to trade in his wifes lexus. I pulled up my saved LC's and there was one near where he was going. We set off to come back with two, new to us Lexi.
I picked up my LX470 on 3/14/2018 in Raleigh, NC.
