It's 10 years old. 150k miles, paid 24k. Put 5k down. Trying to have it paid off in a year, to avoid the interest. I was going to trade my Maxima in for a Lexus LS500. But test drove this beast and fell in love with it. I've never had a truck and i've always wanted a land cruiser, since back whenCash Money and No Limit were rapper about Land Cruisers. And the reliability.

Pros:
Drives like a dream. So smooth.
Just a Beast, almost 400hp
Just capable, hills, curves, offroad, i can tow up to 700lbs
Now I used what it means to feel in command of the road.
Mark Levinson sound systems isn't as clear as Bose, but bangs harder.
Love the split tailgate and power outlet in the rear. Just was chilling eating at the crib.

Cons:
Horrible on Gas (not as bad as I thought tho) Drove from DC to Louisiana and back over the weekend (2500 miles) $450.
Not as many compartments and storage as I would like.


It's basically this one,, plus I have bigger meaner tires.

HOW THE fukk WAS I NOT TAGGED HERE IVE BEEN DRAGGED IN NUMEROUS THREADS TALKIN GX LX...

I got 171 on my 04 and it still runs like a new truck. I'd get the iridium plugs for your next change I get about 20 mpg pricey but worth it

Also every oil change please lube driveshaft as 4 time 4 wheel will dry that bad boy out. Also you are at about the time where you will be looking at cvs get the extended boot

Mines lifted with sliders and 33s...goes fukkin anywhere. I'm in CO tho so it's.necessary

These idiots don't realize their piece of shyt car is built to a ten year service interval while the 120/150/200 series are built to a TWENTY FIVE year service interval.

Also to put you on...common areas where you gonna have a problem is the radiator support where it tends to rust if leaking and again you're getting there in mileage.

Also in regards to the Levinson...NEVER go to max because the tweeters are a consumable component. I have that setup in mine granted older and it's kinda too expensive to replace to factory.

Lastly if you are towing make sure you have the class iv instead of the shorty which is class ii

nice scoop OP. I'm about to take my 4th gen CRV (just about 345k on the clock) off the road so I can do some work on it, and I've been looking at these, gas Highlanders, ES's and Avalons.

Thanks a lot bruh. I'm going to look into those spark plugs. Looking at the carfax, i saw that the radiator was replaced at 140k.

I bet you have all types of fun in CO. I'm in DC :beli: Moving back to Louisiana i next month, I 'll definitely have more fun with it there.

Nice. I have a 2004 Toyota Sienna, I use for djing and creeping. Bought it from an auction 3/4 years ago for 2k with 213k miles. I have about 240k on it now. Toyota is the truth.

Those joints hold their value pretty well, and it's one of best vehicles when it comes to reliability.
These clowns haven't looked at used car market. Lexus is a luxury brand that holds it value unlike Mercedes and BMW because unlike those 2 it'll run for another 200K miles without much major maintenance
