Perfect stance
Perfect stance![]()
Great looking vehicle![]()
That's awesome. It'll make more than a few die hard Land Cruiser guys nod their heads in approval!
Wow. Would love to see details on the lift.

I really need to stay out of the 200 section
The 570s are calling my name

Just exploring my new hometown. Hulls Gulch area above Boise.
Nice pictures, where did you get the LC roof rack?
The road up to where I took the photos above had tons of washboards, exposed rocks, ruts, dips, etc. I had a screaming hot cup of coffee in my hand, just set the suspension to Comfort and float on through. I was on a chill Sunday drive, exploring, trying not to burn my lap, not doing my Ivan Stewart impression. Caught up to a Jeep (First gen 2dr Rubi) zig zagging all over the road trying to avoid the obstacles (mostly the washboards, Jeep started rotating real quick when he hit them with any speed). They stopped at the top where the trails and obstacles branch out, driver jumps out and says "HOLY s*** YOU WERE MOVING!"
Couple kids from WV attending Boise State, cool guys, showed me around the area and tried a few obstacles and climbs, I was able to take some steeper lines that were a little too tippy for the Rubi but he was able to squeeze through some areas with ease that took some finesse to clear without body damage in the LX. They were heading out to camp for the night so I found a hiking trail head and went running for a couple hours. Came back and enjoyed a beer overlooking the valley then cruised home out the other side of the road making a big loop back home enjoying the fantastic Mark Levinson sound system windows down on a nice brisk day, seat heaters crankin'.
My previous rig was a fully built FJ cruiser, 35's, fully locked, Kings, bumpers, winch, etc etc. it was definitely a more capable off road rig at the extreme but the trail difficulty level where it surpasses the LX is also beyond what I am going to take my kiddos on. (My kids have been on Black Bear Pass, RedCone, Hell's Revenge, Schofield Pass, Kokopelli trail, etc the LX will happily eat up some pretty solid trails.) And the LX is VASTLY superior in all other vehicular aspects. Obviously no vehicle is perfect for everyone but it strikes the right balance for our family.
