Inline 6 4.2 diesel is also one of the most reliable engines. Its successor the 4.5 v8 diesel also hands down one of the most powerful diesel engine which is downtuned in land cruiser 200 to make it even more reliable.
Great video! The 100 is a fantastic vehicle, but as you pointed out, they’re getting old and are entering the realm of being an enthusiast vehicle. If you don’t enjoy wrenching or have deep enough pockets to pay someone else, something newer is probably a better choice. Worth nothing and perhaps the #1 thing to check and replace on 100 are the heater T’s between the engine and firewall. They become very brittle with age and a failure can cook the engine and leave you stranded. The good news is they are cheap and easy to replace with OEM parts and are very long lasting. #2 is checking/ replacing the spark plugs. The plugs have a bit of a reputation for backing out on the 2UZ and if not caught it time can blow out and cause serious damage to the head.
My 06 LX has 247k miles. It requires a lot of maintenance but nothing has broke on it except the cv boot on one side, and the driver seat up and down button. It’s such a good vehicle, amazing for long haul trips, and equally amazing for going right up the side of a mountain on a ATV trail.
I've never understood why folks just don't buy the OEM parts, especially in Japanese cars...yeah they cost more initially, but buy once cry once. I've had 3 Land Cruisers over the years, HDJ81 JDM 80 series and 2 100s. We have a Prius and an 01 Camry, always buy OEM parts folks...even my Ram 2500 gets OEM parts. None of that Rock Auto knock off crap which basically means I'll be replacing the part again soon.
I have an 04, my alternator went out at roughly 170k miles. Replaced with OEM. I’m currently at 185k miles and that’s the most major failure I’ve had, cost of ownership is cheaper than anything on the road and I drive HARD. It’s my daily, lots of city miles but we off road monthly. Best automobile ever built.
I would challenge your rating for rock crawling. We took our 100 series through the Rubicon, and Fordyce trails in NorCal last fall, and it did tremendously well.
I think that is probably more a testament to the driver then... then the vehicle... I tip my hat to you... Rubicon is easy enough... but Fordyce is no Joke. For the community can you list your mods?
@@OutdoorAuto of course! Front and rear Valleytech High clearance bumpers, front and rear ARB air lockers with 4.88 Nitro gears, and 37x12.5x17 Nitto Trail Grapplers on Beadlocks Even still running factory AHC as well 🤘 Shout out to Kelli too, she’s got my old sliders and rear bumper on her rig!
As a Toyota owner, I'd say you're wrong and he's right. No modern US spec toyota is designed to crawl like a Jeep Rubicon, Ram Prospector or SxS. You had to add all these mods plus beat the crap out of pinch welds and fenders to get 37s to fit. Rubicons fit 37s without rub with flat fenders or fender deletes. And have sway bar disconnects, 4.10 (4.56 option), F&R locker, better water fording, high clearance bumpers and sliders from factory, plus the option now for a Warn winch from factory. No cutting, bending, aftermarket work, etc. Sure, a modern US spec Toyota will rock crawl if you beat it or throw money at it. But so will every civic by that logic.
I’ve had my 2002 Land Cruiser for 3 years now, it has 245k miles on it. I have to say the biggest thing I hate about this car are how weak the exhaust manifolds are. I bought the car with both manifolds cracked and making terrible noise. Had them both replaced a year ago, already have another one cracked and making popping noise lol, I highly recommend the Doug Thorly headers to anyone reading this lol
I have had 8 80's and 2 100's Glad to see it getting some love on your channel. The Electric brake accumulator is one area that can go bad as well, but these seem to stop so much better than the 80's when they are working right.
Honda CRV or Toyota RAV4. With a focus on mild trail driving/forestry roads. With a strong focus that majority of the overland experience people are dealing with are on standard highway and road conditions.
This honestly needs more. So many "expeditions" can be done in a crossover with AWD and some A/Ts. Most rally cars and Baja buggies see more dirt in a season than an overlander ever will. Get your Subie, HRV, Cherokee, or Passat out there with some camping gear and enjoy the travel.
99 LX470 293k miles and no rust and incredible shape. Had 20 years of Lexus records and I learned to work on it myself last year but it is incredible shape. Dealer mechanics and other mechanics who saw it last year were shocked how clean it is. Tested all fluids with a lab and came back in great shape. I will continue to do oil changes myself every 6 months. I still get 20-21mpg on highway it as it is stock! That is 5-6mpg higher than rated. I've measured 3 different ways, via tech stream laptop, obd readers, and hand math and yup I get 20-21mpg and I use 91 or 93 octane and it is still on original fuel injectors because it has remained cleaned inside. Alternator I did replace at 24 year mark, like you! But 24 years?! My radiator changed at 22 year mark. My AHC hydraulic all suspension parts are still the original with date stamped from factory of 12/1998! All original parts still and almost 300k miles? Come on. What other car companies can do that. Just did my coolant change with toyota coolant at 3 year mark. Cost $40 and 45 mins of labour. Will keep maintaining it myself. So much fun! Drives better than my much newer RX350.
my 3rd gen 4R's alternator died an hour from home. fortunately we made it home, but the battery had to be changed as well. The alternator was surprisingly easy to change tho. I had it swapped in less than 30 minutes.
I’ve had a 2000 for 9 years now. Got it around 167,000 and it’s got 250k now. Lot of oem replacement parts but its definitely something I can hand down to my kids for when they start driving and know it’ll last.
Thank you, keen to see this progress. I’ve a 2005 1HD-FTE 100 series Cruiser slowly being converted 😢to a round-the-world traveller. Fortunately it has more standard capabilities than the US versions (factory rear locker for example) and the turbo diesel mated to the 5spd auto box delivers 22mpg or better, even fully kitted. Joy 😊. It’s a delight on long roads and capable off road, having ditched AHC in favour of a 40mm lift. Following with interest….
I'd love to see a 2nd gen explorer (95-01). It's just an enclosed ford ranger, often with upgrades (V8 option, better gears, disc brakes, and limited slip diffs), can fit 265/70R16 with no lifts. You can fit a full size mattress in the back with a 4D with the seats folded down
I was looking for this Gen LC, ive owned LC's/4Runner first gen/several SR5 trucks. They kinda got out of my price range but I kept looking for them. Last year my GF found a 88FJ62, 12 miles south of me I bought it, Hadn't run since 1998, its running now, gone thru it brakes, cooling, paint, tires etc im still shaking it down slowly. And then wouldn't you know it a buddy of mine from Afg called me. In 2012 home from a deployment I found a troopy RHD diesel I couldn't afford it he bought it. Frame off resto been working on it since 2013 and now want's to sell it. I've always like Toyotas now seems im back into them. I enjoyed this video I subbed,
I would like to see your rating for the Nissan Xterra. I’ve been looking into them and reading some threads. But would really like to hear your opinions on them.
Far better if you get the diesel HDT-FTE. Best motor Toyota have ever made …. I only upgraded to the 300 because I needed to get an automatic…. 1100 kilometres per tank no problems and over 800 towing an off-road trailer.🇦🇺🍺🍺
F150? It is the most popular truck in America, can fit 35's leveled and 37's with a lift and trimming, the 3.5 ecoboost makes gobs of power and gets decent MPG; and spec'd right has a great payload. I have a '21 supercrew 6.5' bed w/HDPP which comes with 2500lbs of payload (and HD 3/4 float rear axles and 3.73 rear gear).
I am curious what the actual payload stick on your door says... I am pretty certain it will not be 2500... well I know for a fact it wont be 2500 exactly... but my hunch is it is decent amount lower.
@@OutdoorAuto you can search “2021 f150 HDPP door sticker” shows 1273kg or 2808lbs. Mine is a tiny bit lower because it was modified by Ford with lift and tires. Keep in mind this is only heavy duty payload package the standard F150 is 1500ish depending on options and 2 wheel vs 4wheel.
@@sgtrosenfield that is an awesome payload… thanks for checking a lot of times when people quote me round numbers (2500) I find it from a commercial and they have never checked their actual truck as configured.

Would LOVE to see your opinion on the R51 Pathfinder. It has the bones of a true 4x4 but doesn't have a rear locker or solid rear axle. A small number came with the v8 but the v6 is no slouch and both are very reliable. However, since it has terrible resale, you can pick one up for less than 10k easily and have plenty of leftover money for mods/maintenance.
Thank you for this video. Being relatively new to overlanding, its really great to get other views and perspectives on what else is out there. As for "other platforms", could we possibly see a vid on the Ford Excursion? Thank you again for the video and hard work.
Oh man, a friend of mine had a diesel Ford Excursion that I feel could meet some overlanding needs well... I dont trust almost any of their Gas engines for the last 15 years.... but that diesel was pretty cool.
Shame you didn’t get the 100 series with the 4.2L Turbo Diesel 1HDFTE engine in the US. Legendary for its reliability in Australia - some consider it the finest engine Toyota ever built. Much preferred over the 4.7L V8 mainly for fuel economy
Id love to get a diesel but it is a pretty unrelatable vehicle over here in the US... on top of that it would probably have to be RIght hand drive... or you pay a fortune to get one from the desert countries... I already did that with a 70 sereis.

Yeah, youtube had a bug that made me have to re-publish this video... which is a bummer because now it will do really bad... but it is what it is... I am a huge fan of the 70 series, I was going to do an expedition build on mine but I had a kid instead... so now I need to sell this one. I got at least 10 years before I am going to probably do South America and 10 years from now I will probably start with a newer 70 series. So I need to button mine up and then sell it.
Yeah, Starters in Toyotas are annoyingly hard to get to... if you do the labor yourself it is fine... but if you pay someone it is going to be expensive.
@@OutdoorAuto the list of common failures. My 100 series is over 300k miles and still the quietest, most comfortable vehicle we own. Fuel economy does suck though.
that is a good guess to... at 223K miles the break booster on this LC is still super strong and showing no signs of wear... but I assume I will be replacing that sometime in the next 70K miles
Well… can’t afford to make videos without them… so kinda can’t do much about it, takes anywhere from 40-60 hours a week right now just to run this channel. 🤷♂️
30 seconds in and I can already tell you the answer to your question is a resounding NO! If you're on the US, just get a Jeep. Save yourself the headache. Cheap parts are everywhere. Dealers are everywhere. Lexus/Land cruisers nickel and dime you to death with maintenance costs.

30 seconds in and I can already tell you the answer to your question is a resounding NO! If you're on the US, just get a Jeep. Save yourself the headache. Cheap parts are everywhere. Dealers are everywhere. Lexus/Land cruisers nickel and dime you to death with maintenance costs.
Thank you 👍
