When she decides to make her move she will claim he threatened her and get a restraining order barring him from the residence. During the 6 weeks or so it will take for him to get a hearing to argue against the restraining order she will have sold off his hooptie fleet and anything else she can and he will have no recourse for it because legally she can do so. His so called friends will buy his fire sale hoopties and one or two will be banging his wife. As smart as he is at accumulating wealth his stupidest decision ever was to get married.

Man, this meme is everywhere...
*Should read* - If you wanna go into the bush take a Land Rover... If you wanna come back take a Land Cruiser. ;-)
Except the aussies that have owned 200 series Landcruisers. They say never again will I buy a Toyota.

My friends mom bought a land cruiser back when I was in 4th grade and she still drives it...I'm 23 now and It still looks new. Those things are incredible.
I love this, perfect first-hand knowledge of longevity. My rig is the same age and I bought it from the original owner last year, people are shocked when they learn its not new and has a quarter of a million miles on the odometer.
Thats not even 15 years

The fact you found a land cruiser for $2100 bucks is simply a miracle. Where I live people usually don’t sell under $10k, no matter how many miles are on them.

My wife was set on a new car
Finally talked her into a quality used car,
She fell in love with the LX470
Win!
Currently attempting the same thing with my wife. Did you let her test drive? I'm thinking to just buy it, bring it home and surprise her.
bperbs. What could possibly go wrong with that idea?
Your videos are so helpful, they are a perfect guide of what not to do
You had us for the first part
I agree. I learned to never let Porker drive your car.
WTF DID I JUST WATCH? This was one of those let's just repeat what I did before to just get a video out videos.
The best thing I learned not to do from Hoovie is buy a BMW. He had quite a few and all of them were a huge money pit or had major issues.
Watch a Hoovie's video.
"Ok, now i know what NOT to do."
A FEW MOMENTS LATER.
Buys a 2000 Honda Civic to change the engine, and swap to a engine from a Honda model that wasn't sold here in Brazil...
I work for Toyota at one of their factories. I must say you’ve got their science down to tee. “just in time”
We bought a 95 Land cruiser new. Been driving it for the past 24 years. It has never left us stranded. What a great car.
Don't tell people to run out and buy these. Prices are going to sky rocket and you're going to mess it up for those of us looking for one to buy. ;)
His first Cruiser video came out right in the middle of my search last year and I was worried, but there's already so much competition for these things, especially the Land Cruiser version, that if its a good one it will be gone within a couple of days of listing. People on the forums have cash in hand and are ready to buy plane tickets to go view some rigs. I personally took 4-months to find a good one because they either all had rusty undercarriages (ALWAYS check this in pics first) or simply disappeared by the time I got on the phone. It will be the best decision you will ever make however.
@@luxcruisers7870 I've been on the hunt for an LC/470 for about a month now and I'm finding a lot issues with frame rust. If it's a southern car there's not rust but that want all the money for it. The search continues but need Hoovie to talk some trash about these for another few weeks. That would be a big help. :)
Get a fj80 instead unless you are wanting a slightly better daily. Both are amazing just one will be worth more value in a few years and more capable
@@brm98 Pacific Northwest cars don't rust either if they have lived their whole life here, but I also kept finding rusty East Coast cars shipped in to take advantage of the high resell prices here. Be ready to jump when you find one!
@@fizzyman1224 You would have loved the dead-ass-perfect 80 I saw earlier, deep blue and looked like they just built the damned thing. I see about 3-5 80-series a day here in Portland and this one stood out.
in London we call them Chelsea Tractors. Off road capable luxury vehicles that just get used to go shopping in expensive west end stores
In Australia we have a similar term: Toorak Tractors.
Chelsea/Toorak tractors are more specifically Range Rover Vogues.
@@timfreeman2603 Yup. Or Evoques and especially those ridiculous convertible Evoques.

My company had them in the Sahara desert. 4.2 Liter engine 120 horsepower. The engines were unbreakable if you do regular oil change. The roads were so bad and the people driving like crazy, so the cars were gone after only 500.000 km. On asphalt they would surely last more than a million.
Nice parking job!
Heidi and Franny's Garage after all hoovie is a bmw driver originally
BE CAREFUL HOOVIE - That concrete may not be designed to handle that weight. A crack or break in those poured steps would be a nightmare down the road.
@@ImGigantor He said in the house intro video that they're going to demo those steps and build new ones. So, I don't think he cares.
@@72dodge340 Ah, must have missed that video. Thanks!
Hoovie! Your videos make my day! I have a 2000 LX470 with 300K miles on it and still going strong! Keep up the great work my friend!
How many years did your car warranty expire? Is it ok for driving a car without warranty?
I got one. Best vehicle I've ever owned.
Hoovie owns a car for one year: it lasts forever!!!
When 90% of the cars u buy break in a week, a year will start to seem like an eternity.
354k miles......
haha exactly buys a low k example thats been trashed. seems like he has no idea why us aussies love em.
by the way I'll never understand those roof top tents whose idea was it that you had to climb a ladder when drunk to make it to bed?
have to actually seen what he did to the car?
Also only puts on a couple thousand miles.
That is one stunning house you got there, Tyler. Wouldn't mind living in Kansas! Here in the Netherlands a house like that would cost many, many millions of euro's. The annual taxes would make a grown man puke on the spot.
Love your channel, keep up the great work. Always fun to tune into your endeavours!
as a fellow Dutch person i can confirm that
Yes. Houses are really expensive in the Netherlands.
All fake. None of it real. All of a simulation. Wake up.
Not only in the Netherlands! I live near Washington, D.C. and oh my would a home like that be pricey!!
It's the cheapest nice home in north America.
Tyler I have to agree with you on your experience with your 2003 BMW X5. I have one with 175,000 miles and it is eating my lunch. Over the last 2 years I've sunk close to $12 K on repairs with the transfer case being the most expensive at $5K. I cry when I write the checks to pay the bills but I gotta tell you to me it's worth it. It's drives and rides great and doesn't look like a 16 year old car. Early on when the repairs started adding up I should have unloaded this baby and got a Land Cruiser. Great video!
Yeah you should get rid of it ...
I’m currently driving a leased Audi Q5, but absolutely don’t want to own it long term - have spent the last few weeks looking at a highlander as its eventual replacement. My previous car was an 07 Camry that has 300k on the clock and is still being driven around the neighborhood - Toyota’s are amazing vehicles.
If you're looking on the used market, definitely check out the first gen Highlander. Not too sure about the longevity of 2019 model, but its due for a refresh soon. My parents gave me the old family 04 Highlander as my first car, still going strong with over 310,000km and my mom upgraded to a 2017 Volvo XC90, and boy does she regret that. Less than 30,000km on the Volvo and its been in the shop almost as many times as the Highlander has had over the years for routine maintenance.
Ryan C I’ve got 18mo on the Audi, so it’ll be a 2020 or 2021, or maybe a certified pre-owned - not looking for older I don’t believe, but not ruling it out
@@peeceejay The current Highlander is outdated compared to the competition, but they're still flying off the lots and year over year sales continue to grow. I can't imagine the sales it'll get after a redesign. Chances are, you'll probably pay well over MSRP.
From second gen on I believe production of the Highlander was brought over to Indiana compared to the first gen which was produced in Japan preaching lean manufacturing to a tee with its Kaizen quality.
My dad owns a 1999 Land Cruiser GX.R with straight 6 engine. It have done more than 200,000 KM's and it's been pretty reliable. More reliable than my 2002 RAV4 which's saying something.
Land Cruisers are one of my favorite SUV's IMO.
I have about 370,000km on my 99 4Runner before rust ate away at it. Everything else was perfect. Your Cruiser will last another 200,000 no sweat.
@@DavidELD 600,000km here :D
I have a ford explorer 2007 looks good and the size is perfect but shitty reliability with ONLY 188 thousand km
Currently have my mom's old first gen 2004 Highlander with over 310,000km as my first car. No major problems and a capable soft-roader. Would love to upgrade to a land cruiser one day but those things are much more expensive, hard to find second hand (especially in Canada) and don't get as good fuel economy as the Highlander.
Great vehicles - for the past 15 years, I've only bought pre-owned vehicles and that's when I quickly learned to stick with Lexus/Toyota. They hold their value very well, are highly capable and extremely reliable. Currently I've got an LX 570 as my daily driver - plenty of room for the kids and their friends or their sports gear - very comfortable, good tech features and in a few years when I've got an empty nest, I'll probably get a used RCF as a daily driver and keep the LX for weekend fun and do all the stupid things like rock sliders, bull bumper, winch, etc.
Perfect plan man, LX 470 owner here, and I love the RCF too! An LC would be my dream car in that Structural Blue color.
@@luxcruisers7870 - Oh yeah - that LC is nice. I had an ISF, but it was too small for my kids' hockey bags. Unfortunately my 2014 LX was destroyed in a pileup accident on the freeway - (nobody injured), so I picked up another 2014 that only had 25k miles on it - for not much more than what the insurance company gave me for the wrecked one with 65k miles on it.
That they're built so well and are such capable vehicles is the only way we can make plans for a vehicle more than just a couple years out.
Buying a used Lexus is the way to go, reliability isn’t a concern so buying brand new or needing a warranty isn’t really a concern, let it depreciate and buy when it’s a couple years old. I’m on my third and have never had car problems ever. And I have coworkers having car problems with half as many miles
Why on earth did u buy a tent? Huge car, plenty sleeping room in car! 🤦🏼♂️
My parent's 1999 LX has 75,000 miles on it and has been to the shop for any issue whatsoever besides routine maintenance. It is a tank and I can not think of a better suv.
It has 75,000 miles. They don’t drive it... I would expect it to be like that lmao where were you trying to go with that?
CPARK5511. Type O !!!
I did that in 1 year with a BMW 3 series, nothing special. If you add a 0 to that number that would be special
Hands down Toyota makes the most reliable cars in the world. I'm saving up to get their Lexus super sports car.
Which car are you saving up for?
I pray you never get tht money!
Might want to rule out late 90s to early 2000s Rav4s, and Corollas...motors in both were known to be crap,trans in Rav4s were garbage. Also I'll throw in the one time use valve cover bolts on v6 Camrys and solaras of same era
@@brianobrian9334 try 4runner very solid
Just don't use their airbags
Hoovie please raffle off the roof TENT!!! You mentioned it in a previous video, we would love it!! :)
Hands down, my 2000 TLC was the best vehicle I have ever owned - paid $50k in Oct 2000, paid it off in 48 months, owned it as my DD for 12 yrs (125k miles), and sold it for $18k in late 2012... outside of tires, brakes pads and normal scheduled maintenance items, never had an issue.... wasn’t ever seriously off-roaded, but did do suburban-country chores such as tow my SO’s horses to regional show jumping events, towed trailered snowmobiles and ATVs and on rare occasions, was called upon to perform trail-recovery duty for various neighbors and acquaintances who were the unfortunate owners of non-TLC 4x4 vehicles
Both my landcruiser 80 series had over 500k miles before I sold them , both are still running strong from what I hear ! Most reliable toughest vehicles ever !!
i had a 2.7 toyota motor it run for 840,000 miles before it fell to pieces
my benz is at about 500k,hope it still has many left to go
Sauna Boy what model
Wow!!
Bubba J more than likely the toyota hilux
The 3RZ? I own a 90 Series with the 3RZ engine, and I have seen some up to 400.000km
Now dad can pick me up from school anywhere in the world
Lol
The best security is an ADT sign and a camera that doesn't work by your front door
I got an ADT sign, but idk if I got a security system or not. "I got a gun and a switchblade. TEST ME B__CH!!!"
A sign without subscription can actually get you in hot water? I have a sign but it came with the house :)
Excellent! I bought a 00' LX470 last summer, and it's been the best car I've owned even though it's one of the oldest. Funny enough, my only regret is paying a relative premium to buy one with low miles of 115k. Really not as necessary here as with other cars.
Bumper, Rock Sliders, and Rear Bumper are next.
I got mine last summer at 249,000 miles!
Avoid the "Toyota Tax"!
A new Land Cruiser is $76K while an Escalade is $64K on cars.com. While a 2009 with less than150,000 miles the LC is $26K and a Escalade is $17K. A new LX570 3-row is $92K while a 2009 is $27K.
So the LC drops $50K and the Escalade only drops $48K. Toyota LC is not luxurious and should not have that depreciation compared to another luxury marque.the LX is more like a luxury vehicle in it’s high depreciation of $65 in the last decade.
@@luxcruisers7870 probably over paid too?!
@@normt5463 I got a fair deal but prices here in the PNW are higher for these than most other places aside from maybe Texas since we don't salt the roads here and it never gets too hot so cars stay pristine. I was prepared to pay about $4,000 more in this condition. Owning and driving a 100-series has little to do with money and everything to do with the experience. My 11.3 mpg average does sip some more cash from the wallet however. I use it as my daily.
I used to travel from city to city taking pictures for Bing.com and I drove a 99' Beetle TDI and I also had a roof tent. I slept at Walmart, Lowes and Home Depot at night. Best time I had in my life, except getting harassed by cops every other night. I Loved that tent!
3 things to clear up:
1. a Land Cruiser is a 4wd (or 4x4) not an SUV
2. a snorkel doesn't just raise the air intake level so you get cleaner air, a properly fitted snorkel also prevents water ingress into your engine when driving through deeper water, does not stop water from getting into the cabin.
3. That big thing on the front is actually not called a bumper bar, that is infact called a bull bar.
300,000 mile on a petrol is really good but is just being run in on a diesel engine
This one purchase is why you haven't been hauled away in a straight jacket.
Mall Crawlers: people who own SUVs or giant 4x4 vehicles then “crawl” over the speed bumps at the mall.
that's us, sometimes unlucky can't find a parking at CBD as parking space are so small just enough to fit a tiny car, and we have to remove the giant roof rack just to fit the limited height at mall parking.
I thought I was alone in thinking this was strange and I'd be driving 70 mph over those speed bumps if I had an SUV!!
That's a Lexus Tank you got. It simply won't die on you. nice neighbourhood by the way and great video
I pulled my friends 2017 TRD Pro tacoma out of a mud pit that my rusty, stock, 97 lx450 with 27 inch street tires drove right through lol. 278xxx miles and still runs like a champ
I need more land cruiser updates every 2 weeks please
It's so hard to believe that this particular generation LX came out in 1998.... Certainly doesn't look like it!
A new Land Cruiser is $76K while an Escalade is $64K on cars.com. While a 2009 with less than150,000 miles the LC is $26K and a Escalade is $17K. A new LX570 3-row is $92K while a 2009 is $27K.
So the LC drops $50K and the Escalade only drops $48K. Toyota LC is not luxurious and should not have that depreciation compared to another luxury marque.the LX is more like a luxury vehicle in it’s high depreciation of $65 in the last decade.
@@normt5463 actually the LC starts at $85,000. Gauging car value by a seller on cars.com isn't how you judge a value of a vehicle. People find awesome deals for high priced cars all the time, doesn't mean that's what its worth. A Cadillac Escalade is a plastic abortion and doesn't compare to other luxury vehicles very well. Doug Demuro did a video a few months ago demonstrating how crappy the build quality is with it creaking and rattling. Nobody cross shops a Land Cruiser and an Escalade. One is a high quality offroad tank, the other is an expensive chevy tahoe in a tuxedo.
@@normt5463 Toyota Land cruiser vx limited diesel is more expensive than the basic one. Ours, if we buy this brand new 2018/2019 model it will cost us NZ$126,000 plus on road charge.
This and the 3rd 4runner are timeless. Toyota hit it out of the park with the design of these two
@@normt5463 your kidding right? Escalades value drops faster than my grades. The reason why the LX and Landcruiser hold their value better is because of the notorious reliability they are known for.
Congrats Hoovie! Still love that LC, I remember when you posted a year ago when you just got her. Landcruiser's are the best, my 96 LX450 has needed next to nothing over our last 12 years of ownership! Let me know if you need a place to dump that rooftop tent...my LX wouldn't mind carrying it around the trails, lol! Best of luck in the new house and congrats again. Stay warm :)
Still lovin my 2005 Land Cruiser with 270,000 miles. Just got back from hunting trip with it in jawbone Canyon , north of Mojave. Superb car for literally everything.
4 yrs of owning a landcruiser 280000 miles and never did that kind of parking job
TOYOTA IS THE BEST IN ALL VEHICLES.
no, really just reliability and mass production. they’re not really that luxurious compared to lincoln, cadillac, and german brands. and they aren’t really that focused on fast cars
Remy Fagerstrom they do luxury but on their secondary brand...lexus
Tigerz still not that close to other brands
Remy Fagerstrom
Bullshit, Lexus are just as luxurious as the European makes, and even the current models of Camrys and Corollas are very luxurious.
European cars are overpriced, unreliable shitboxes that cost a bomb to buy and own.
@@masteryoda498 grapes are sour😂🤣😀😜😅📣🍇 since u can't afford so u r stupid enough to condemn them .
What failure did you expect?! You got yourself a Toyota!😁
Late to the vid on this one but, Landcruisers (and Patrols) are one of the few vehicles I have seen in Australia really handle the extreme conditions well, no I am not talking about driving around town, I am talking about some of the harsher off road tracks. They do break, and each model has different weaknesses (1HZ, expect to rebuilding your power steering pump alot, early V8 diesels....enjoy replacing that starter motor....newer V8 diesels.....yeah emissions controls), point is they aren't indestructible but they are a damn reliable and good car. Just don't blow that motor at least here in Aus, they cost a fortune.
That stuff you said about the snorkel is the standard mall crawler excuse for it looking awesome.
This is the opposite of my CL55 AMG.
Does that have a V8?
Kamal Q yessir.
But its soooo sexy. I had cls 55 10 years ago ;)
nikita novikov damn you must’ve had it back when they were almost new. Must’ve been nice
I got an E55 AMG and two Land Cruisers and a VW Jetta wagon. They are like your kids, you love them in different ways.
That “just in time” production has been around since the 1970s
1:17 to skip the ad
thank you
Or just make ads relevant for yourself so you actually bother watching them.
Already paying youtube premium and ublock origin, if you're the kind of person who you know what you want already ads are just irrelevant and won't make you buy stuff you don't need/want so it's pointless but at least hoovies get something out of it which helps make the video etc
@@jansen7640 This was a Hoovie produced ad, not a TH-cam inserted ad, hence the timestamp.
@@kevindavis5966 oh I did not notice that tbh
Also, I liked the honesty of admitting that putting snorkel and roof tent was a mistake or not for everyone. Of course it is your money, do what you wish, but if you wanna be realistic, buy what you are actually gonna need.
These 99 lexus/land cruisers still sell for 20-30k dollars in my country. Holds value like a king and is super reliable. Oh and we have the diesel version which is more geared for off road. Ive seen a kia rear end one and that thing was a total wreck, the land cruiser just needed a new bumber and some adjustment and trim for the rear bumber
Talking about warped rotors, that's the only problem I have with my lx470. 😂
I love my cruiser. Look after them and they will literally last a lifetime
my dad bought a land cruiser when I was in 3rd grade and now i’m in my 2nd year of college and he still has it driving strong
Thank you for parking your 4x4 on your front steps. Love it.
The first gen Toyota Highlander is also another reliable SUV that will get you better mpg. For most people, it'll get the job done and it's a decent soft-roader. The Highlander ranked the highest in terms of original owners keeping their car for more than 15 years. 18.3% of Highlanders 15 years or older are still being driven by their original owners! The Land Cruiser surprisingly isn't on the list, probably due to the low number they sell in the US and its thriving second-hand and export market.

I wouldn't mind owning the new one. They look real nice. Even the new rav4 looks good.
But does SimpliSafe work protecting your Movement watches?
Adore every gen Land Cruiser/LX they’re so special. Only SUV i want!!!!

I purchased my Landcruiser new in 1998 and have only 94,322 miles so far.Aside from regular fluid changes and brakes, literally the only thing that has broken on the truck was the D bulb by the stick shift indicator for drive.It doesn’t light up anymore .Thats it.Its one incredible vehicle.....
I'm thinking about getting a 100 series Land Cruiser for a DD. A 2004 specifically. I don't do a lot of off-roading, it would be more of a grocery getter and something to haul my 3yr old around in. The reliability of this beast is one of the man reasons I'm looking at one. Thoughts, comments and concerns are welcomed!
It’s -65 in Minnesota today😛
And my Lexus fired right up 😁
It is 130 degrees warmer in Las Vegas where I am lol

@@brandondannys-menary3678 Yea..Around 65 here in CA..Those back east people are NUTS!! hahahaha!
Dude I am amazed and so happy at how fast you’re steadily growing! Congrats hoovie! Getting closer to 1 MIL! 🙌🏼
I use a 1983 FJ40 Cruiser as my work van, she gets everywhere, and never misses a beat. Most people ou there use Cruisers. They're just brilliant work horses and off-roaders.
No, a snorkel is used for water. Partially the reason why it's called snorkel. It's just when you go in water Crossings are supposed to do it fluently and surely. Newer landcruisers like those aren't really meant to be seeing heavy off-road terrains. They have too much to electronic gizmos and gadgets that are really expensive to replace. Suggest getting an older vehicle with manual labor.
PS. From someone who's done water crossing before I highly do not recommend it because it's a pain in the butt to maintenance parts. Water will get into almost everything. I had water squirting out of my manual transmission stick and my 4 wheel drive transfer case
huh
This dude is so clueless it’s cute
How so? I’m genuinely interested, as I’m looking into an 01 LX470.
Notice how quiet it is on the video? No rattles neither. My ‘98 has 233k, and I’ve had no issues! Great vehicle!
Seriously, in Budapest, in the summer of 2018, I saw this generation Land Cruiser tow a 1st gen Mercedes ML. Too bad I couldn’t take any photos because it was in full city traffic, but I wish someone captured that moment.
Simply safe helped the criminal steal my stuff by letting them know when police will arrive.
Hoovie I’ll take that tent off your hands ;)
Good old Toyota not enough HP to wear anything out.
We still got our 1991 Toyota Land cruiser vx limited, imagine for 28 years in service and this car won't die. We use it everyday and doing hard work as towing as we renovate our house ourselves. Still as bad ass, although the outside cosmetics is not as great to look at as it sue to but the reliability and dependability is second to none.
Good to know which security system you use... beyond that, simply refer to your "collection" on you front doot. That should drive away most thieves :-)
But why it's having lexus badge on the grill?
Lexus is owned by Toyota and it makes high end models of the regural Toyotas.
I have a 2002 one and it’s still running perfect to this day, I wouldn’t swap it for anything!
This video series actually sold me on the LX470. I bought one just like this and I regret nothing! (except at the gas pump)
My dad still has his 2003 manual 3.0i X5 from factory and hasn't had any real major issues but then again in the space of 16 years we've only done 73,000 miles...
I never considered a Land Cruiser but now I want one! I’ll have my Porsche for the weekend and the Cruiser for daily travels
If guns are legal in the United States.
Why do you need a robot to protect your house?
Security is not a 1 prong approach.
Better yet, arm your security robots with your guns for full 'murica experience
@@Muserschmitt Exactly. I give the squirrels guns.
To protect the guns when you're not home of course! Despite rumors to the contrary they won't just get up and shoot on their own
Hey my 02 X5 has 250K on it with pretty much no major issues, however its been babied and garaged by my family since new! Wouldn't trade it for the world! Great video hoovie!
I hit a Black Bear at 60mph and the only damage was at the area behind the front left tire, which was cosmetic. It was a big BOOM, and the car barely moved. The only issue I had was the rear brakes. This was a 2002 Land Cruiser with 170,000 miles I got for $9,000.

Hoovies back up plan: selling home security systems. You’re like a pro already.
Mine is a 1982 FJ40, with 250K +. Still going strong.
Love the humor and self-deprecation! Quality and reliability are paramount … the FJs have both in spades. (Rover and Jeep owners will never get it … gadgets are fun, for the mall-run).
Even though I'm not a truck guy, this made me feel good. My Lexuc SC400 has essentially this same engine, and only 140,000 miles on it. "Designed to last for generations." Yup!
I only found this channel from my love of land cruisers and now that he's sold it I have no further use here. Have a thumbs down for your trouble. Cheers.
Turn The intake for the Snorkel towards the rear of the car it will make it more efficient and less wind noise
Toyota does make great vehicles. I'm surprised Tyler Hoover doesn't dealw ith more toyotas. Mercedes and BMW's are such money pits. great video!
Toyota 👌👌👌
They have timing chains not belts. Dont forget to change the heater hose plastic T couplers behind the block between it and the firewall with stainless steel ones, you won't regret it.

Too soon to know if I love him, as you do. But he shows clear signs of being, as we say in Texas, a genuine, card-carrying, smartass, which we know to be an extremely good sign.
I always suspected Texans were closet Aussies with a lot less landmass.
My dad owned his last Land Cruiser for 16 years. Bought when it was 4 or 5, it was great! One of the batteries lasted until it was about 18 years and around 120-140k miles and the other not much less.
4.2 litre though, so it was a guzzler and not needed when we moved to city, sadly.
He sold it with ease and at a decent price too, because the purchaser was a fan of that model.
We also used it off-road and often towing 1+ tons of logs.

Nice one :D
Here in the Scandinavia, probably only engines are left of these. Nearly all of the older ones (pre-2000) have succumbed to rust, and these which are still on the roads have been welded, patched and repatched up many times over. Rust was the arch-nemesis of old Toyotas.
i have a 2001 model GXR in Qatar. 465 Km done, engine overhauled once in 430 KM . Still i like it as a new car. other than the 4.5km/L issue, its a super car for ever.
Always check differential, t-case, transmission fluids for water contamination after a deep water excursion...
I appreciate your honesty and general candor, glad you enjoy your Toyota!
