👋 Welcome to the new Land Cruiser Forum - Please post an introduction thread!

Hello from Walnut Creek, California!

I am currently driving a Polestar 2 and an eGolf, but with two children under 2yrs old in car seats and a golden retriever, I need a bit more space. I would also like my next car to stay with us for a long time and support a more adventurous lifestyle. Enter the LC!

I am in no hurry to get a new car, but after test driving LC, 4Runner (6th gen) and Honda Passport, I have fallen in love with the Land Cruiser, so I am now looking for a deal below MSRP or a gently used specimen.

Last week I test drove a beautiful, gently used trail dust LC Premium that unfortunately got away at the last second

The search continues…

Welcome to the asylum floppy!

Don’t give up.

Hello from northern Michigan! I’m currently driving an 23 4Runner OR, but I’m curious about the new landcruisers, and may make one my next ride. My wife and I enjoy cruising the back roads and trails nearby with my 4Runner but I’d like a better mannered, better appointed road vehicle at some point, that is off road capable as the 4Runner for our adventures.

Welcome to the asylum.

It’s difficult to compare apples to oranges, but my sense is that those who switched from a 4Runner to a Land Cruiser did not regret doing so.

New here, and purchased a new 2025 250 Land Cruiser about 2 months ago. Color is Heritage Blue, and so far, I’m very pleased with this SUV. Previous owner of a 2019 4Runner Limited and a 2024 Tundra TRD PRO.

How does your Land Cruiser compared to your forerunner?

Greetings from Northern Ontario. I recently had a dealer place a factory order for a 1958 to replace my 2011 Ridgeline. Now the long wait begins (2-3 months)!
I have been watching this forum for a very long time while deciding on my next vehicle purchase, which had to be the new Land Cruiser 1958. Very excited and happy to join this community.

About the same time you were submitting this entry with cool video and awesome Landcruiser, I was driving on interstate in VA next to an almost identical looking LC and admiring it big time. License plate was '3XLCKD" which was icing on the cake.
You have a very cool truck, and 400+K miles is incredible. I hope the 250 series can get high numbers too. Time will tell. Welcome.

@98 SNAKE EATER - no, it was a Virginia plate. Driving in Hampton Roads area looking like towards Chesapeake. So there are more of these 3xlocked plates out there!
I will say as a 250 owner, there was some serious admiration going on of this 80 Series (I think). The thing also sounded like it had a jet engine in it or something. Maybe a diesel, but sure sounded big and rumbly even with all the highway noise around. Just a total beast!

Hello All, new to the forum. Landcruiser fan, the LC is the last good jeep left in Ireland to do a bit of work. Had a 150 until its untimely demise in a head on collision late last year (not my fault). Only for its tough build we walked away from it, so couldnt turn my back on Landcruiser. Anyway been waiting since then for the new 250 to arrive in Ireland. Finally got it the other day so I'm on here for advice to make some mods to it.

got a 2025 LC250 myself what tyres did you upgrade to? they look different to the stock tyres.

Hi All, new to forum. I've owned my 2003 4 litre petrol 3 door VXE for 20 years now. It has been a wonderful workhorse and general transport for us over those years. I know it's quite a rare car ( who would be dumb enough to buy a 3-door automatic PETROL VXE in 2005! ) . Apart from killing a battery ( my fault), I cannot think of anything major to have gone wrong yet -- or maybe I have rose-tinted glasses.
