Got quite the compliment …

[TimHerald]

Was unloading to go to our neighborhood pool yesterday, and a guy in a navy GX pulled to the stop sign, backed up and pulled over and parked. He started asking me all about my LC and the mods and told me he and his wife had seen my truck around for the last week or two, and they both loved it and were “jealous” because they liked it way better than their GX. That’s the third stranger this week who has come up out of the blue and asked about my truck. It’s cool that people are so interested in our vehicles.

It is pretty interesting. I’ve gotten more compliments in the LC than all of my previous cars combined.

People love these things!

Agreed. I have the traildust LC premium with 275AT3s, CBI rock sliders, and ceramic tinted front windows as only mods but everywhere we go someone is staring and striking up a conversation. Drives my wife crazy because she got sick of it when I had my lifted lunar rock 4runner.

Are you sure you’re not in denial and really what you heard was;

“That’s not a real Land Cruiser”

“Too bad it’s not a v8!”

“Too bad it’s not a diesel”

“Should have gotten the Lexus”

“That 4 banger must really struggle just getting up the driveway”

Funny how that’s only on Facebook and a few threads on the ih8mud forum

I brought the LC home on Wednesday and I’ve had four conversations with strangers about how much they love it.

Have also seen two other LCs with temp tags in our small town in that same timeframe. I think we were all waiting on the June delivery.

It's odd but despite the sales figures, I rarely see a LC, but I see at least 3-4 Lexuses for every LC I see.

And I do get lots of compliments and people wanting to stop and talk about the LC.

I’ve had several people at work go, “Nice car. What is it?”

 

[BreezTrd]

Pretty interesting

It’s funny in our mid 50’s the wife gets complements on her looks and I get them on my LC. I’ll take what I can get

Ditto - maybe LC's are more common in some areas of the country than here in the east...

We were shopping used nationwide for a few years before getting the new LC and Lexus was high on the list. What we saw was there was tons of Lexus’ that were lease returns with more availability based on population… We see new LC’s all day everyday in the northwest.

Sad, but I herd all that comment. I always just reply, "I love my prado"

Get used to it…
