This is a pretty cool article and story, This Man Has Been Driving Around The World For 19 Years And He’s Got Some Wisdom To Share,

But looking at the photos, I am not sure it is not fake or made up (like the lunar landings). He has the wrong tires, missing the right rear bumper, not enough stuff and equipment on this truck, no sliders, no front bumper, light bar, antennas.... And the door swings in different directions too in 2 photos...maybe because he was in Australia the doors are backwards...yeah.

If you read the article, there's a funny Toyota line "Your vehicle WILL break down sooner or later (sooner if you have a Land Rover, later if you drive a Toyota)"

I believe one of the photos was printed reverse, look for the missing steering wheel in the lower photo

Yep rear door is opening the opposite way also

He is not vaping, so he is not hip. And the reverse door and steering wheel happens when you move a vehicle to Australia. Its physics, as Rice.

Not related to the bearded wonder above but....

What kind of floor mats is everyone using? I had Weathertech in my 4Runner and loved them but I have read reviews saying that they did not for a LC very well. Any lower price options that work well? They don't have to be molded....just something that looks nice and works well.

Walmart

But not kidding. Under 20 bux. Fit great. Hold water. Works for me

 

[sleepycruiser]

Yeah, I saw some of the Goodyear there and they looked fine.

The freebee ruber mats that came with my VW Touareg, for some German engineering in my truck.

Love my weather tech in the 80

Do you have the digital liners or the mats? I might get the cut to fit Weathertechs.

I had the weathertech most expensive 'custom fit floorliners' in my Suburban. Never again. They slip and slide and moved about. Gave a homeless lady and her kid a ride one time, she almost fell on her ass when the weathertech floor liner slipped out of place. Never again.

Rubber mats only. I do have the weathertech ones, because they're a family/made in the usa type company, but not I bought the "cut to fit" universal rubber floormats, not the plastic "floor liners" or whatever...

 

[lt1fire]

every weathertech mat I've ever seen and rode with has been a perfect fit. Weird
