1 year anniversary of ownership on this girl. 2018 LX570 Luxury w/29k miles when I bought her last April, 63k OTD.
Thanks to crypto, she's completely paid off (I'm just lucky, I have no investment skills).
I've only added a Beat-Sonic and Fumoto oil drain valve. Thinking about the newer 2021 grill but this one has really grown one me. What are your guys opinion on doing a new grill?
I think I want to go smaller on the wheels too, not sure. But high up on my list is an auxiliary gas tank. This car is a parking lot queen with family roads trips about twice a year. Would love the extra range when driving to Canada to visit family.
What I don't like is that absolute monstrosity of a mouse controller thing for the infotainment, ugh. But not a big deal. The dvd screens are cool and my little kids enjoy it right now but they are outdated and I'm thinking about just getting rid of them completely since the kids have ipads.
Overall, I just love this vehicle. I'm very lucky to be a poor dude or at least recognize that the LX is out of my financial league. I got lucky with some crypto and found this at the time I did last year. This is one of my dream cars. I also own a 2002 LX470 w/135k miles. It was my dad's car he bought brand new and I bought it off him many years ago. My wife loves the 100, and I'm starting to love my 200 over the 100. She daily drives the 100 and I daily the 200.
Next "mods" are gonna be a storage tray for the cool box and some storage things for the center console. What are your must do's?

Looks great! I bought my ‘18 at almost the same time and kind of wish I’d gotten white over silver, but I’d been looking for like six months and a white with black interior hadn’t come up anywhere.
As for the newer grill, sadly you need to add the lower fascia from the black series to make them fit. If you find one that’s a direct drop in to what you have now, I’d definitely want one too.
Oh, and highly recommend the beat sonic. Was one of my first mods and I love it. The only complaint I have is it disconnects from my phone kind of often, but I think that’s a phone problem and not a BS problem.
I love Beat-Sonic, I have it, it was my first mod. I've not had any issues with it dropping connection or anything.
Had a fun time out in Citrus WMA this weekend.
Nice! Those 275/60's have a good amount of sidewall for a 20" tire. Looks great!
They are fantastic. Rides incredible with 30 psi. I was surprised they rubbed some. I removed the front and rear front mudflaps. I think falken makes a taller than average tire.
Also, this:
Good grief, the range on this thing. God forbid you gotta drive into a headwind…
I would caution using that pressure. Some self described experts on these boards are not what it appears and has been bamboozling people for years despite feedback from users applying "RCTIP" with issues.
I would recommend no lower than door placard for any tire, and in your case 33 PSI as a starting point. Inflation pressures are not just about tire carcass load handling. You might find in actual emergency handling, that still may not be enough.
As a cross check, use a chalk test to see how much the tire is actually rolling over onto the sidewall. You may also find in real life cornering, how stability and traction is compromised so trust your own judgement with real life feedback on how to adjust the pressure. Don't want a Firestone rollover type risk.
Nice, I'm thinking of getting rid of my 21s too. I'm thinking about taking my 18" tundra Trd pro wheels off my 470 and putting on the 570 and put back the stock 16s. Tire replacements are coming up this year too
I'm gonna eventually get an axillary tank. I'd really love a little more range.
got off the pavement today
+25 methods are giving me rubbing issues. I used the heat gun and massaged the wheel liners a bit. No more rubbing for this pavement princess.
That said, if I had to do it over again, I would have bought trd tundra takeoffs in the 18 inch flavor. All said, I’m into new wheels and tires for $1600 and change, and the truck rides way better.

@Patrick82570 yes, with 65" bars. The 65" bars are the longest that can be installed on a 200 without modifying the bars.
