Welcome to the asylum TimRichter.
Welcome! And I think you'll love it! I'm also in CO and have only had mine just shy of a month. Took it on a mild trail a couple of weeks ago and it's so capable and was really comfortable, but you probably already know that. Which dealer did you order it through? Got mine through Greeley and they've been fine but Stevinson West is closer to me and I like their service department. Going to get new tires this weekend and I can't wait!
I'm in Colorado Springs and working with Corwin. Looks like I'm getting the same LC you have.
Then I'm sure you're going to love it! I recommend tinting the side front windows right away. We took it on a road trip the first weekend and both of us got more sun than we wanted through the untreated glass. It shouldn't have, but it surprised me.
Hope to see you out on the trails this summer!

Hello from sunny Santa Cruz, CA you All,
Giving up on sports cars--for now. After a recent accident in my Porsche 911 Carrera S, where someone hit me and totaled my car, I've decided to go back to my roots and a larger vehicle.
We are essentially a long time Toyota enthusiast family. It was my first 1987 4Runner (purchased new) that got me hooked on the capability, practicality, and reliability of Toyota Trucks and SUVs. I've owned two different 80 series Land Cruisers since then, then moved on to the Sequoia when the other two kids came along. Mrs wanted a small crossover so we opted for the RAV4. My oldest son owns a 2010 FJ Cruiser, and I gifted my daughter a super clean 2008 FJ Cruiser for her high school graduation.
As much as I wish I would have kept all of my prior Toyotas (4Runner and the two 80 Series LCs) I have been eyeballing the new LC250 and Gen 6 4Runner for a bit now. I've watched endless YouTube reviews and videos, and so I finally pulled the trigger on a lightly used, Toyota Certified 2024 LC250 First Edition just last Saturday. It's a super nice rig and I am hoping for the best! Can't wait to get it dirty!

Welcome to the Jungle!
Hey all — I’ve been lurking and doing some lite posting, been waiting on my LC to arrive.
My wife drove by the dealer this morning and it’s in! Can’t wait to take possession. Already have an OEM 3/4 rack, OEM rock sliders, and an OEM dash cam to install.
Edit: I’m in Oregon. Hope to see some of you at the Expo in Redmond.

Check your tire pressure, before leaving the dealers lot. They seem to always leave them inflated to 50 PSI (for the long boat ride over here, I guess).
Thanks for the tip!
And when you find 50 PSI in your tires, ask them, “Is this the kind of attention to detail that I can expect form you?”
