That truck spent its life in the rust belt. That said, 21k is a heck of a deal.
Thanks for sharing. The market for these things is just all over the place. Sounds like the dealer that appraised mine is playing by the book but when you go look at Heritage Editions for sale nationwide right now with less than 20k miles the lowest ask is this one at $95k which is built out and we all know built trucks bring less than stock ones. 2020 Toyota Land Cruiser Heritage Edition - https://www.503motoringsales.com/vehicle-details/2020-toyota-land-cruiser-heritage-edition-suv-25cd6e70a5054f7fba0ecfdb737c1e30
One word for you - RUST. Did you see that door sill? ugh...
Sometimes I wonder who (probably) overpays for a HE, dumps that amount of aftermarket offroad crap, drives for 10kmiles and cashes a huge financial loss selling to a dealer that probably nailed them with a lowball offer. Man, and that auto-retractable sidestep? WTH! Perfect for mall-crawling adventures and zero rocker panel protection.

Based on my observations from CarGuru for the last 4 months, HEs with less than 20k miles have sold for 87k-93k. Most with 12-18k miles sell within 24 hours when priced 87-89k. I missed out on one in Georgia that had 7k miles for 92.5k that sold the same day it was listed. Carmax has a 2021 HE with 22k miles they have had at 92k for several months. What are the specs on the one you are trying to sell?
*Considering to sell* It’s a ‘21, 2 row in silver. Completely stock. Nearing 16k miles.
Did you have a price in mind? I’m still in the market for a low mileage HE

Plus I feel like some of these are "written-off" as shop promo vehicles, so a certain subset doesn't really care about the loss. I am not an accountant and I still think it economically does not make sense, but it is thought process.
A lot of folks buying a LC 200 new can afford to lose $20k cash in a year on a vehicle.
It would be for me, yes. I'd ask for loads of undercarriage photos or stick my head under there myself.
This 100%. @chubster reach out to the dealer and get undercarriage pics, and then also ask to do a video chat for more assurance.
Looks like you are from Atlanta. I’d say focus your search in the south for a southern car. If you were up north a bit of rust might be acceptable, it will happen eventually no matter how much fluidfilm or equivalent you apply. Being from the south though the worst thing you can do is buy a rusty one and bring it here, unless the discount in price is substantial. Plenty of HEs in Texas and Arizona, Cali, etc. not saying they are cheap, but deals are out there. Patience is the name of the game.
The rust is minimal IMO. I would definitely hit with some fluid film or like product as soon as possible and the annually. I have found living in a road salt state, it helps but requires frequent undercarriage cleanings and reapplications of film
