Hello fellow mudders! I am happy to announce I have a new addition to my land cruiser fleet. I picked up a new to me lx470 with 199k miles yesterday from a friend's auction. This is my first land cruiser newer than a 60! Wow, what a nice vehicle! We went to the auction specifically for this vehicle and luckily I was able to pick it up at my max bid after a good bidding war with another gentleman. My friends also had an fj60 up for auction that I was interested in, but it ended up going for a bit more than I wanted to spend, luckily the guy bidding against me on the Lexus ended up with it, so at least he went home with 1 cruiser!
Since I am new to this vehicle and as with any new to me vehicle I like to go through and check everything and fix/repair/maintenance anything i need to. I am wondering what you all suggest I take a look at and what maintenance I should do on the rig at this mileage.
I am going to have to familiarize myself with all the new buttons and gadgets that this vehicle has as I have never owned a vehicle with this many options and do-dads haha.
I appreciate any quick insight you LX Veterans can pass along. I look forward to getting to know this vehicle and for many years of fun ahead!
