New to Group - I just picked up this 2004 with 75K Miles. It's in near perfect condition... I would say a 9.5 out of 10. Front seat covers have been on since day one, I was told the rear seat was used 15-20 times and the 3rd row fold-downs have never been used. Don't plan any mods just going to add roof rack / kayak rack... I have a place up in Truckee CA so this truck is going to get some use in the backcountry. Had a 99 LC for a few years... Happy to be back in a 100 Series.

Definitely clean and condition those front seats, the covers don't allow the leather to breath and eventually cause cardboard like leather.

Great LX by the way!

They are going ..... Never liked them. I have a friend who was left a mid 1950's SL190 by his grandfather. They had lambs wool seat covers from day one. When he removed them in the early 90's they were perfect so I'm not sure about the non-breathing leather.
 
Super nice find. Any mention of the timing belt being replaced?
At 75k? That's a tad overkill/early. I picked up my 03 with about the same mileage. One owner and super clean. I looked every day for almost 6 months before I found the one I wanted. Good find.

It's 7 yr or 90k recommended. I'd probably gamble and just replace at 90k if it were mine, but it's way overdue according to Toyota if never changed. Just throwing it out there in case OP didn't know and wants to maintain by the book.
 
Wow - that looks super clean.

Congrats and welcome to the addiction.

I'm going to talk to my mechanic next week ... Super good guy and just happens to be Toyota Certified.
 
OK first off, I am surely not the only one that thought you were a man of wealth and taste, from that thread title?

Secondly, those seat covers are LOL, but if you are willing to throw them in a box box and ship them to me, I would buy them off you.
Your wife does not need it, you have seat heaters....

Third: that thing is mint.
 
Only 100K more until broken-in. Congratulations on a supper find.
 
That's a great looking LX! Congrats!

I thought he was going to say that he rode a tank, and held a General's rank...
