Why I don't see many lc100 on the road?

.. I mean it is a pretty decent car, there should be more people own it...

Decent? They're awesome, like any Cruiser. Over kill for most people though, and not many sold in U.S. They are quite rare around here too. Car of choice is the practical 4WD Subaru.

Go to the Middle East to see an abundance. Those oil wealthy Arabs love them.
 
as @JunkCrzr89 said - there just aren't many 100s in the U.S. Period. Sales data is clear. Now, the fact that most are still on the road throws it off a bit, but still... there are very few 100s on the road compared to other cars/trucks.

What we are experiencing is sort of like the "Cocktail Party Effect" - picking out your name or something of interest from the noise. If I'm at a party and hear "Steelers" or "Branding" it's the same as hearing my name. I swear there are more Steelers fans in Atlanta than any other NFL team other than the Falcons - because I see them. The reality is, I'm not "seeing" the Packers, Patriots, Panthers gear. My brain is conditioned to see black and yellow.

Same for cars and trucks. We're now conditioned to subconsciously notice Land Cruisers.
It took me a while to talk the wife and daughter out of a Jeep Wrangler and into a FJ...they claimed they didn't see them on the road as much as the Jeeps. I wanted reliability and Toyota proves that in spades. I suggested they were not looking as @Manhattan has just pointed out... 🤔
Once they conditioned their peepers :geek:, they started seeing them all over the place and the the mighty river's flow began to change. :jawdrop: She and her mother are now thinking it's going to be cool having the only FJ in the HS parking lot :cool:, if the :censor: Socialists ever let our kids go back to school here in Northern Virginia...:rofl:
 
I know. Need “Noise” or “Static” forum tho: lacking in movement, action, or change. Which apparently I have become a primary contributor to 😬
