My first LX470...(maybe)

[85badger]

I just found a 1998 pristine black lx with 100k on the clock, timing belt changed with no lockers. I have visions of bumpers, sliders, lift and locker in the future! However, I currently have a 95 LC all loaded up, 200k, 35's, lockers, bumpers that I DD and once in a while use in Colorado. I'm torn....get the lx with the V8 (great for pulling my boat or a camper), sell the 80, keep the 80?? WTH....what are the pros and cons of owning the 100 and what should I expect to pay?

If keeping 80 is an option then do it. Add 100. Pimp life?

I recently added a 100 to the fold. My wife drives it. We have 4 kids. No Desire to lift the 100, we aren't even going to get rid of the running boards. The biggest difference for me is acceleration. The 80 is on 33's with stock gearing. The 100 is on 31's and a rocketship in comparison. I don't want to lose that. I love them both for different reasons. I can't really tell you what is best for your scenario.

Totally agree, I've had several 100's since I traded my FZJ80 and still wish I had kept it and got the 100's.
