New 2021 Heritage inbound

[FLGT]

Just recently discovered this forum. Active on several other car forums.
We have a fabulous 2007 and 2018 Landcruiser (original owner of both, with only 115k and 21k miles respectively), and now have a 2021 Heritage edition inbound.

Enjoying reading the various mods and upgrades that are possible, as our first 2 are bone stock.
Already found a Naviplus unit from someone here, to try to add Carplay to our inbound 2021.
Hopefully the install isn't too daunting, as from what I've read here, looks a little intimdating.

Will probably put the 2018 up for sale shortly, when the 2021 arrives in next few days

Looks good!
Ernie Palmer dealership? How are they to deal with?

No tax credit for trade in in FL?

Good eye ! Bought my last 2 LC from Ernie Palmer- both times dealt directly with their general manager - both experiences were great. Honest, no bs, no surprises etc... Also, been very happy with their service department over the years. Both my 2007 and 2018 are normally maintained there. Have never needed a 'repair' fortunately (they are landcruisers after all) - just routine maintenance - all done there without an issue.

Didnt take long for the mod madness to start - Day 2 with new 2021 LC - had it apart for Naviplus carplay install. Fortunately, my master mechanic friend did 99 pcnt of it, as it would have been tricky for a novice...Several folks here were most helpful! Thank you!

Now just thinking of some running boards, as it definitely sits higher than our 2018, and my wife is petite.
Anyone have take offs they would part with?

Also wondering about remote start, as would be nice in the hot summers...

Satisfied with the Navi install?

If you haven’t seen this issue yet, dealers are very bad about breaking the recirculate flap when checking or changing the cabin filter. It is very expensive to fix and often not caught for years, making it impossible to prove they did it. I know you trust them but all it takes is one new tech in the quick service line.

The best way we’ve found to prevent this is any time you bring your cruiser in for service, lock the glove box and keep the physical key blade with you.

Either way, congrats on that new ride.. I’m quite partial to blizzard pearl!

So far seems good. Tricky install and setup. Need to be pretty mechanically/tech inclined to do it IMHO. Thus far works well, but havent gone thru that much testing yet. Essentially once setup, I found to operate,, just need to do 2 easy steps to have it work (users manual not great).

After connect phone:
1. Select Aux as audio source
2. hold Nav button down for 2 sec

Nice Blizzard Heritage! I'm also partial to white as I bought the exact same truck!
