Parts falling off a Land Rover is a design feature. It is there so you can find your way back by following the trail from the middle of nowhere to civilisation.
I sold my hooptie fleet and bought the cheapest cruise ship in the country, the SS United States. She's floating on the river in Philadelphia, so now I just have to figure out how to get her delivered here to Wichita and have the Wizard take a look.
Because he is British and he would never swallow that but he tried to kill the toyota hilux 4x4 and didn't succeed and now it's the main car of the show top gear
Can we just appreciate that Hoovie went out of the car at those high altitudes, ran out of breath a couple of times just to get external shots of the car? Loving the video man!
Land cruiser is the best combination of comfort and reliability. . . Better than land rover, jeep, or any other SUV anything more comfortable is wayyyy less reliable (land rover) and its pretty good looking, compared to some other SUVs. . .
I love land rovers, i am a former land rover technician. They are great cars but they do require maintenance just like any other car. I have owned everything from series to range rovers and i absolutely love them.
Couple tips. Throttle application is key with these trucks because they weigh so much. You don't have to be timid with it, giver' hell. Also, airing your tires down really helps the truck climb up that loose gnar stuff. But i'm stoked to see you using your 100 as it was intended
I found his "channel" on Pelican Parts (Mercedes shop.com) when he was in High School. Tyler is a true Renaissance man; one of a kind thinker and go getter. Tyler is one of my heroes even though I am much, much older than him.
I mot'ed a land cruiser last week with 746000 miles on the clock in the uk amd it has only had 3 clutches, a turbo rebuild once and thats it. Full origanal running gear
I was off-roading my 2005 Toyota Land Cruiser practically all day long a few days ago. It has 262,000 miles on it and it’s completely stock. It’s got the optional chrome rims, still has the running boards on it and it stills has amazing clearance. All day long, this thing gave me no problems. I was only in 2 wheel drive for most of the time, even I’m really steep trails. I only put it in low gear when I was going down those really steep trails.
Another Hoovie's Garage impressive Land Cruiser episode of *Clothed And Afraid.* The funny comments, the cleverness, the hilarity, the wardrobes, the wit... Man, I love this channel!
When you switch to low gear, try lifting off the clutch just a bit if the shiter is stuck. Some bits on the inside move and your leaver will slide into place. Old tractors need this approach many times..
Love it when you recognise the beauty you find yourself in. That makes the video. Too many folks would miss that in their own self worry etc. LCs rule.
Can't be a top gear episode, doesn't fit some sort of PA system to annoy Hammond, or fit some ridiculous gadget to the outside, like a BBQ grill, also in reality Clarkson's waaay fatter, and funnier.
Thats a good achievement bro.. If it makes u feel any better.. We finally sold our 100,000 mile 2004 cayenne turbo for 3000 dollars.. Engine and turbo failure was one of the main problems.. Glad to see u doing well in ur lexus which is almost a dexade older and 300000 miles!! Pure japanese reliability! Keep it up!
I only come to see Hoovie when he uploads a video about Land Cruiser.. Really love those cars shame i can't buy one even an old one (too poor) hope Hoovie sees this and may makes my dream come true :(
my landcruiser hasn't even had its low range used for 8 years.... i tested it out recently and it goes straight into low range without a hassle. though for me it was stuck in low range. had to use so much force to put it back into high.
i really appreciate all the extra work you must have done to get all the different camera angles it makes it a whole lot more interesting to watch than most car videos on youtube
A few supertips: If you are at a stop, in neutral and your low range won't engage, let off the brake for a second and let the car move a few inches. It's usually because the points of the gear teeth are touching and it won't let them move into place with the lever. For water crossings of any depth, if you don't know what's under the water, slow down. It may only be a few inches deep, but there may be a log, rock or pothole which could catch you out and bump the steering wheel, damage a tire or wheel, or in the case of a log, get lodged in the drivetrain. I've seen people put holes in their floorboards because they took a crossing too fast and whipped a tree limb up into the cab. Don't be that guy! With the rooftop tent, rather than pushing it open as you did in the video, remove the cover, reach up to the base of the ladder, extend it out a foot or two. Holding the bottom rung, simply walk backwards and use the ladder as a lever until it folds open. This puts less stress on the hinges (the tent doesn't fall open), doesn't require shot-putting the whole tent from the bottom, and eliminates the possibility of the ladder swinging back into the vehicle. To fold it back in, just do the reverse. Retract the ladder up to mostly closed, lift up against the tent and let it fold up and forward as you walk towards the vehicle. Also, nearly all RTTs have enough space on the inside to pack some blankets/bedding on the inside. Bring a full size pillow or add a second layer of memory foam and I think you'll have a much better night. :)
As I remember ،For the Land Cruiser, I expect you to : 1- put The gear on the natural. 2- pull The second gear “up“ and move it while it is up for a low, *other ways you will break it !
In Africa we had a saying, "If you want to get into the bush get a Land Rover but if want a guarantee that you will get out of the bush again get a Land Cruiser.
How can a guy be brave and girlie at the same time. Hoovie you always take us to unexplored territory. Well done and the mountains are wonderful to visit and see only
It was no tough track that’s for sure. I’ve got a friend who has one of these and shit always needs doing. Last was the abs module because it was leaking. It always stinks of gas fumes, air con is intermittent, AC compressor has been replaced twice, it has rod knock, goes through cv joints, has terrible range/economy among other things. It’s comfortable but could do with a locker in the rear, gets stuck often on the axle twisters. It sounds good and has decent power but they aren’t as good as what many make out. The older landcruiser and hilux were more reliable, mainly because they had no power to break shit and they had very few complexities.
all motor Ya we all know that. Nobody expects him to actually do some super gnarly stuff in a near stock cruiser. He doesnt have the offroad experience to do much more than that too.
@@scottwatson2808 That's what I like keeping it real. If you're a noobie there's no shame in saying so. Just when you are and try to throwing up words to make it sound like you've been doing it for 10-15 years that's when you get in trouble. Know your limits be smart and most importantly get back home safely.
@@hazemgiballi Going to pick up the same year/ model tomorrow..... Wish me luck its a 4hr drive and will be daily for wife. 220K miles Also selling the Honda Pilot with 65k
I endedup buying it, the guy bought from original owner and put 30k miles on it. Only thing is it came from PA area. Skid plates are missing prob from rust. I have over 8k in bills from fixing the air suspension including new lines and shocks, new brakes/rotors and brake lines. New fuel tank/pump. He wanted 6k I got it for 4k. Hoovie would you be proud? Also it has 220k on it. The manifold has a small oil leak, the namacuchi stereo cranks and the seat heaters and leather are heaven. Sell it or ride till the end?
The low range gear stick do stick if you don't use them for a couple of years. It has a rubber boot under it, it that splits or gets damaged they can rust the mechanism. If you have a LandCruiiser, select low range every 3 or 4 months just to stop it sticking.
Awesome LX470! My sister lives in Breckenridge, Colorado. That place is beautiful! I also own a Land Cruiser 120, GX470, and there's nothing like it. They're amazing go everywhere vehicles! Love your videos about overloading with the LX470!
Glad you made it up, and apparently, back. Your Land Cruiser is, indeed a great off-road vehicle. But you need to take it somewhere really challenging, meaning, off road. I live in Colorado, and have done some really rough off roading, a lot rougher than that. Get some experience, and you’ll be amazed where you can go!
Umm, the Land Cruiser is indeed a great SUV. However an old Ford truck probably made it up that trail to deliver the building supplies for the cabin. Not to mention the trucks used to build the weather station. And a garbage truck likely comes a couple of times a week to empty that dumpster. Not exactly adventure camping eh? If you're worried about bears don't camp next to a dumpster. If you want a nice camping experience, don't camp in a campground that even has one. No wonder you don't like camping.
This is new best video in your channel. From quality perspective. I love it. And I have to say, that I want LC/LX so badly right now... Not that I'm going offroad a lot, but just knowing that this car is so capable and reliable...
You have it so lucky out where you are in terms of finding relatively rust free cars. I have an '05 Land Cruiser with 265,000 miles on it (same color, actually), and while it has never had a serious problem or left me stranded, or had any kind of engine or transmission problems, the New England rust is beginning to take it's toll on the body and suspension components. It's going to be a very sad day when we sell this beast soon. :(
As long as the rust hasn’t taken over the underneath of the truck u should be fine. I bought a rusty 2000 Land Crusier that lived in New England its whole life and i was surprised to see that the underneath was not that bad. Just my fenders and rear lift gate. Check you’re brake lines tho! A tank like the land Crusier would sure be tough to stop with bad brake lines.
I agree with you, and the truck is never going to stop running, but it's approaching a critical point where the rust is going to cause more damage than would be worth investing to fix, especially with the ride quality and fenders and tailgate as you said.
Well when he bought it he had to replace the entire rear tailgate, which was difficult to come by and considerably expensive, there could be more rust on it than he knows!
Agreed. I was thinking if a weather tower is up there, then it must be maintained, and maintenance trucks are bone stock, and they make it. The worst part was the puddle.
Land cruiser is a type of car that you buy and almost forget about it They doesn't need excessive maintenance , these things keep going whatever happens
The low range was probably hard to activate because the previous owner/s probably barley or never used it so it probably seized a little bit, same thing happens with switched 4wd/2wd vehicles. See if you can get some of those mechanical parts cleaned, tuned and lubed up.
This video perfectly demonstrates why I hate cars like the Urus and the X6. THIS is what an SUV is built to do, not pose and take the kids to school, but to conquer mountains!
i hate such videos-some fake guy comes on here with an old suv and then says its the best car in the world.Maybe i should also take out my 2004 range rover and proclaim it as the best car ever ever
I drove a 1999 Toyota 4Runner Limited across 16 countries from Oregon to Argentina. It's crossed Peru's Cañón del Pato, Chile's Atacama desert, the Bolivian lagunas, and the Andes 6 times. The throttle control sensor died in New Mexico, I replaced brake pads 3 times, and I only lost one Wrangler A/T tire. That was it. Then I shipped it from Buenos Aires to Florida, drove it across the country, and it's still my daily driver today. If you manage to kill a 1FZ-FE in a Colorado ski resort you're just aiming for TH-cam drama.
Hoovie, keep up the awesome work! This is one of your best videos so far and I’ve seen them all. If you filmed this one all by yourself, major props. Had some great scenic shots, intense music to add, and that aerial view was absolute butter 👊🏻👍
People who are not true off-roaders should not try to make off-roading videos. Had he installed the proper size gears after putting on larger tires, then low gear would not be necessary for a gravel road. Quit being a wuss and try a trail out by Moab! We can tell that is some really rugged camping, with those RVs in the background, fire rings, and charcoal grills.... and dumpster. sheesh.
This episode was impressive in every way!! The car, the route, the premise and all. Congratulations, a new standard for you! Really cool. I wouldn't have dared drive up there and I don't think you've had too much experience with it either so it was gutsy of you.
When changing to low range one must be in neutral or Park (the Disco 2 I have must be in Neutral) or just roll back or forward a touch, this is how I get my Defender though the ratios to align the gear teeth (they are straight cut) and it helps massively.
I had Jeeps, Land Rovers, and a Nissan Pathfinder. I now have two Land Cruisers (FJ62 and 100 Series) the Land Cruisers are by far the best I have had and the ones with least issues. Never again going back to the others, I hate wasting cash and having problems. lol
Hoovie... with the rooftop tent, you actually flip it open from the ladder side. Slide the ladder out and use it as a lever to pull the tent open toward you. Don't push from the driver's side
4:30 my 2001 hyundai accent would make that hill in second gear...(the first bit - the green bit) having said that i love the land cruiser range and hope to own one before i die. i wish there was tracks like that where i live... EXCELLENT VIDEO thank you : )
Parts falling off a Land Rover is a design feature. It is there so you can find your way back by following the trail from the middle of nowhere to civilisation.
70 years of Land rover. And cars made in Australia gone bust
Andy DUNNE how are the Nissan Patrols in Australia??
Hahaha! One of the best comments I've seen in a while
*civilization
It's the British English spelling you fucking grammar Nazi.
I don't know what's more impressive, the Lexus or the fact that he did all the videoing shots of himself going up the mountain.
palakaman I was thinking that too it must of took him for ever to record this
I'm wondering how he did the drone shots while driving!
Paul Sengupta there are modes on the drone where you can ask it to follow an object or move in a certain way
Probably a Phanton 4. It does most of the job alone.
Tyler's filming skills are awesome! Look at the little clip he filmed on his "I fixed a big Mistake on my Porsche 911" video
If Tyler has like 40 cars at 32 what is his midlife crisis going to be?
A cruise ship maybe?
I sold my hooptie fleet and bought the cheapest cruise ship in the country, the SS United States. She's floating on the river in Philadelphia, so now I just have to figure out how to get her delivered here to Wichita and have the Wizard take a look.
He needs a train
An M1 Abrams tank
LA ferret or BMP armoured car
Pffft, get a pilot's licence, and buy a ex combat jet, you Americans love that sh*t, and it's more cheaper than 40 cars
You got appreciate how much time you spend thinking about the cinematography of this video
Tyler uses hand gestures like characters from gta San Andreas
Not many rolls Royce owners sleep on top of their Lexus Landcruisers
lol
Hoovie your front passenger side foglight is out.
Joeys Cleaning Lady thats actually the least of his problems 😂
Daytime driving light...
He keeps one thing broken on every car.
That’s actually not the fog light.
Mr. Cairo it's both daytime driving light and high beam but the daytime filament is broken.
The work that must've gone into this is phenomenal. Thank you and well done!
Safety tip: never go off-roading alone
I agree but if Hoovie can do it in a Land Cruiser then anyone can. ( In a land cruiser anyway)
I do go offroading all the time by myself, I would have a very successful TH-cam channel if I recorded it...its hilarious...
Unless you're in a Land Cruiser
You're not saying it right. To get the full Clarkson effect you need a pause! "The best SUV..... In the world!"
Awm Joeyjoejoe and some viagra too remember?
Because he is British and he would never swallow that but he tried to kill the toyota hilux 4x4 and didn't succeed and now it's the main car of the show top gear
At least he said "what a machine!!!"
They last forever, low depreciation, great for all terrains, practical,, etc. I would say yes.
They chug gas though
These are some high quality shots man. Great job!
Can we just appreciate that Hoovie went out of the car at those high altitudes, ran out of breath a couple of times just to get external shots of the car? Loving the video man!
Hi Hoovey, I took my Landcruiser over 18,000 feet in the Himalaya :)
And that was the old BJ45 model, an old 4 cilinder diesel without turbo!
Land cruiser is the best combination of comfort and reliability. . . Better than land rover, jeep, or any other SUV anything more comfortable is wayyyy less reliable (land rover) and its pretty good looking, compared to some other SUVs. . .
Never better than a Land Rover (;
All depends on how there maintained all depends on how time and money your willing to put into them
Landy man_96 A landrover is better... WHEN EVERYTHING IS WORKING!
I love land rovers, i am a former land rover technician. They are great cars but they do require maintenance just like any other car. I have owned everything from series to range rovers and i absolutely love them.
So a landrover is never better? Proving yourself wrong there 😀
U should do a poll a week before the event and have us vote on which car we want u to take! Everyone like so he sees and agrees
agreee....
Can you teach Doug how to make videos?!
he talks like doug lol
That Doug guy surely knows how to explain different features of a vehicle but knows little about driving.
Forget Doug. Hoovie is much more entertaining, yet interesting. PS: hope he never sells this car. It fits him.
Brett Goodhew can you get a life
Just teach him to not spittle all the time would be a achievement.
Couple tips. Throttle application is key with these trucks because they weigh so much. You don't have to be timid with it, giver' hell.
Also, airing your tires down really helps the truck climb up that loose gnar stuff. But i'm stoked to see you using your 100 as it was intended
Just found your channel a couple days ago and I love it!
...
Hey Yey i found this channel 6 months ago and I'm still loving it
I found his "channel" on Pelican Parts (Mercedes shop.com) when he was in High School. Tyler is a true Renaissance man; one of a kind thinker and go getter. Tyler is one of my heroes even though I am much, much older than him.
Same! I subbed.

I was off-roading my 2005 Toyota Land Cruiser practically all day long a few days ago. It has 262,000 miles on it and it’s completely stock.

Love it when you recognise the beauty you find yourself in. That makes the video. Too many folks would miss that in their own self worry etc. LCs rule.
It feels like this could be a Top Gear Episode
Especially the part where he cries "what a machine!".
Can't be a top gear episode, doesn't fit some sort of PA system to annoy Hammond, or fit some ridiculous gadget to the outside, like a BBQ grill, also in reality Clarkson's waaay fatter, and funnier.

Wish you kept this thing. I'm still watching in 2019. This is great content.
Low range is amazing. Mine sticks sometimes too in my Cherokee--- but once it is in, it makes a huge difference.
Use it is more frequently. Things start to stick when they aren't used. I put my ZJ in low ever few weeks. Since starting that, it has gotten easier.
my landcruiser hasn't even had its low range used for 8 years.... i tested it out recently and it goes straight into low range without a hassle. though for me it was stuck in low range. had to use so much force to put it back into high.
I just attended the Mid Atlantic Overland Festival here in central PA..... lots of amazing rigs..that actually get used.
It’s called a Bullbar in Australia, not a ‘big bumper’
alexaescht , it USUALLY is here in the US as well. 🤣

Idk how to make the basic gear go natural? Is this some special hippie/vegan option?
i fixed it, :)
No, do not shift into low range while moving...the issue is driveline-bind, simply run in reverse a little bit, and then stop and shift.
RabidBandit North Idaho i didn't say that
Awesome drone shoots and all ! Very much apreciated work on this video !
When you smash into a deer you'll be grateful for that bumper
Just gonna put this here, camera work was exceptional. Can't imagine all the work getting out and moving all the cameras around. Great work!!
Scotty kilmer would be proud
Ugh. You had to bring up that guy.
In Africa we had a saying, "If you want to get into the bush get a Land Rover but if want a guarantee that you will get out of the bush again get a Land Cruiser.
When will your online car series be out?????
I grew up with a land cruiser and those 4wd gears get stuck alot but it's is the best SUV. It can go for decades without big problems.
Hey nice video
Im from the Netherlands and i have never heard of altitude and mountains can somebody explain what these are

You want to try some of the magic mushrooms
How can a guy be brave and girlie at the same time. Hoovie you always take us to unexplored territory. Well done and the mountains are wonderful to visit and see only
that's a maintenance trail any normal truck can run up.. they use basic pickups on the mountain crews.

Never mind can’t afford that 😅 but invite you for a beer if that’s up your alley and maybe even connect you with a 500E Benz
The event got changed, and prices dropped. Its a karting event now, so we can race Tyler!
You can’t kill them they are amazing blocks and drive trains. Keep the good stuff coming.
I think a honda civic could do this trail
Alex Zander right lol
It would VTEC all the way through, yo.
Alex Zander talk about my mons prius 😂
Marc Schrewe hahaha no shit bro after all it has very tall engine coolant
Agreed. I was thinking if a weather tower is up there, then it must be maintained, and maintenance trucks are bone stock, and they make it. The worst part was the puddle.
Land cruiser is a type of car that you buy and almost forget about it
They doesn't need excessive maintenance , these things keep going whatever happens
That was so, entertaining ☺
The low range was probably hard to activate because the previous owner/s probably barley or never used it so it probably seized a little bit, same thing happens with switched 4wd/2wd vehicles. See if you can get some of those mechanical parts cleaned, tuned and lubed up.
Update on the rolls royce
This video perfectly demonstrates why I hate cars like the Urus and the X6. THIS is what an SUV is built to do, not pose and take the kids to school, but to conquer mountains!
Light bar next?
YES! BLIND EVERYONE!
No. Not every 4 wheeled vehicle on this planet needs a shitty chinese light bar. Stop it.
Lockers before lightbars!
Only if he gets lockers, there's an order to these things
It's absolutely amazing how you do these shoots by yourself, looks great.
i hate such videos-some fake guy comes on here with an old suv and then says its the best car in the world.Maybe i should also take out my 2004 range rover and proclaim it as the best car ever ever
Hoovie this video is commendable. These drone shots and the music paring are epic!
For the love of god, Tyler. Calm your fake off road hard on
I drove a 1999 Toyota 4Runner Limited across 16 countries from Oregon to Argentina. It's crossed Peru's Cañón del Pato, Chile's Atacama desert, the Bolivian lagunas, and the Andes 6 times. The throttle control sensor died in New Mexico, I replaced brake pads 3 times, and I only lost one Wrangler A/T tire. That was it. Then I shipped it from Buenos Aires to Florida, drove it across the country, and it's still my daily driver today. If you manage to kill a 1FZ-FE in a Colorado ski resort you're just aiming for TH-cam drama.
Why would you park next to a dumpster?🤦♂️
He wanted to discreetly throw out the broken bottle of Grey Poupon.
Paul Archer I thought, it is spelled „grey poop on“... But I agree, that must be the reason. LOL
My 2 favorite things, car videos and abandoned videos all in one!
In a Land Rover you don't even get to lose things on the way, you wouldn't get to start your journey at all. It's a shit box.
Mr BrightSide ooooh yeah
Buy the right ones Series 2 never die or the old range rovers (pre vogue) the new ones sure but a series 2 I can fix with baling wire if needs be.
lol no
László let me guess another land cruiser fetishist whose never owned anything pre disco?
My Range Rover has took so much abuse compared to these shit boxes, so ugly and slow and they do brake down quite alot
Your quality of video shots and edit tings keeps getting better and better!
Why does it have Lexus badge on it?, can anyone explain me?
Farhaan Ali he bought the lexus version (lexus lx)
Lexus is Toyota's brand so basically this car is just a fancier/nicer version of the Land Cruiser
Thank you
Lexus is a Toyota brand
Cause it is a Lexus.
Hoovie, keep up the awesome work! This is one of your best videos so far and I’ve seen them all. If you filmed this one all by yourself, major props. Had some great scenic shots, intense music to add, and that aerial view was absolute butter 👊🏻👍
Soo...... Clickbait tumbnail?
Nope he was referencing the cabin
Thumbs up to all of the really good camerawork in this video. It was beautiful!
People who are not true off-roaders should not try to make off-roading videos. Had he installed the proper size gears after putting on larger tires, then low gear would not be necessary for a gravel road.
Quit being a wuss and try a trail out by Moab!
We can tell that is some really rugged camping, with those RVs in the background, fire rings, and charcoal grills.... and dumpster. sheesh.
Your videography has improved immensely over the past little while. Keep up the good work my friend
This was your best yet! Awesome cinematography and the LX is my favorite in the garage.
This episode was impressive in every way!! The car, the route, the premise and all. Congratulations, a new standard for you! Really cool. I wouldn't have dared drive up there and I don't think you've had too much experience with it either so it was gutsy of you.
When changing to low range one must be in neutral or Park (the Disco 2 I have must be in Neutral) or just roll back or forward a touch, this is how I get my Defender though the ratios to align the gear teeth (they are straight cut) and it helps massively.
I had Jeeps, Land Rovers, and a Nissan Pathfinder. I now have two Land Cruisers (FJ62 and 100 Series) the Land Cruisers are by far the best I have had and the ones with least issues. Never again going back to the others, I hate wasting cash and having problems. lol
This one took a lot of extra work from you, thanks for all your hard work Tyler. Great video!
Gotta love Hoovie. Doug should've come with in his Defender. That would've been a pretty cool collaboration!
Wow every episode gets better and better thank you love your videos
I've been a fan of your channel, and I actually recently bought one of these 100 series lx470s. This was a really good video!
Low range is not stuck Hoovie. You have to put it in park and take your foot off the brake. If you hold the brake it'll be very hard.
Hoovie... with the rooftop tent, you actually flip it open from the ladder side. Slide the ladder out and use it as a lever to pull the tent open toward you. Don't push from the driver's side
I wish I owned a rooftop tent for my Xterra. Wish i owned one but my kids take all the money. 😁
Some awesome camera shots!! Content quality is getting better and better.
4:30 my 2001 hyundai accent would make that hill in second gear...(the first bit - the green bit) having said that i love the land cruiser range and hope to own one before i die. i wish there was tracks like that where i live... EXCELLENT VIDEO thank you : )
