    First Gen Toyota Sequoia 4wd Limited is also very similar to the 470. Same engine and 4wd system with also center diff lock. However 01 to 04 are the best option since they had a manual gear shift selector from High to Low gear for the 4wd. My parents own one and is at 300 K plus miles, runs like a dream still.

Im partial to Lexus from 2005-2010......some of the beat made vehicles ever made no regardless the model.

    Solid review. In comparison, I know a lot of American 4x4s that routinely pass 300k miles without major repairs, but I'm not sure if the same can be said about the peripherals. Referring specifically to HD Suburbans, pickups and Avalanches, if anyone has direct experience please chime in.

    • @reviewedbytim
      @reviewedbytim  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks for commenting Nicholas! I know that you can get 300k miles out of the heavy duty series American trucks (Duramax, PowerStrokes, Cummins) but I don't think that the 5.3's can make it to that point without having the notorious valve tick, or burning oil! The gaoline fords, and dodges definitely can't. With that being said the "bulletproof" setup to me would be a Chevy 6.0 and the 4l80. If you maintenance those like you should and don't beat the bricks off of it I'm sure it'll last! Again, thanks for commenting. I like comments that make us think!

    My grandpa gave me his 01 LX470 with 310k on the odometer for my 16th birthday. Now I’m 23 and an RN and still drive it. It’s been in the shop once since I got it for the suspension. 430k on the odometer and it still drives and feels better than my girlfriend’s 2023 Explorer.
    My grandpa told me last year he regretted giving it to me but my grandma made him. He was mostly joking of course; told him I’ll sell it to him for $15k. Only downside to the car is that it drinks gas; but not having a car payment makes up for it.

These drive better than new cars, it’s incredible. Take car of it and it will get you to 1,000,000 miles. I did a video of a 530k mile original drivetrain ‘01 LX470.

    I agree completely, had my lx470 for a few years now and still love it. But ditch the hydraulic suspension, it's the only unreliable part on the car and it's much better off without it. Standard springs with a 2in lift allows for good 33in chunky tires.

    • @reviewedbytim
      @reviewedbytim  ปีที่แล้ว

      Glad you're loving your LX! I found out that if you change the fluid in within the hydraulic suspension it's going to last 300k+ mile. It's oil and is constantly being used.... so you have to change it. I did a review on an lx with 500k miles..original engine and transmission, it had the proper maintenance and the hydraulic ride lasted to 400k miles. But the changed all the fluid religiously!

    These are amazing vehicles, but fyi - full time “4WD” systems are not AWD systems. Some people think that if a vehicle is always in 4WD or can the manually switched between RWD and 4WD, that is what makes it AWD. That is a misconception. 4WD vehicles are based on RWD platforms. AWD vehicles are based on FWD platforms. You can see the differences if you look under the vehicle at how the transfer case is set up. The way the transmission distributes power to the wheels in a 4WD is different than how an AWD vehicle does it. The linkages are connected differently. Transfer case is what 4WD vehicles have, and power transfer units are what AWD vehicles have. Both distribute power to the wheels, but are a little differen. Furthermore, only 4WD can have a true torque-multiplying low range gear. Some AWD vehicles have “LO” mode, but all that does is try to simulate a true low mode by limiting the gears to the first 1 - 2 gears, which is handy, but again, mechanically different.

    One thing too note is that these are 20+ years old now and OEM Lexus are Service are extremely expensive. I bought a 2014 GX460 with 97k miles on it last February and I spent 6k at the stealership bringing it back up to speed. If you don't buy oem Lexus Parts it will ride and perform like shit. All Lexus 4x4 Trucks are expensive to maintain. Every single suspension component starts to wear out underneath and if you don't have a lift in your garage then it's a pain to work on. These have hydraulic suspension and is extremely complex and expensive to fix when things go wrong. The Gx460 has KDSS and there are certain hydraulic pumps and tools you need to work on these that only the dealerships have. They are way better than Range Rover aor suspension that constantly fails but they are still expensive maintain and buy parts for. It's only going to get worse as they age. Land Cruiser prices are expensive for a reason.....There is nothing complex about them and are not expensive to maintain.

    • @reviewedbytim
      @reviewedbytim  11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      You're right about that. They're not cheap but for the money you're going to spend and the reliability/ quality it's worth it. When you're driving a Toyota you know that it's not going to leave you stranded and it's going to ride better than most new vehicles on the market. I have a lx470 with the original hydraulic suspension. It's so butter and smooth! Cost to maintain..but I don't mind. Plus they hold excellent value!

    Considering I drive a 2000 Camry with 454 K miles on her I couldn't agree more that there's nothing better built than a Toyota/Lexus product. I bought my Camry slightly used with just over 700 miles back back in 10/99 as a broke college kid who had better credit than since but I was determined to keep the car going for at least 200 K but by the time 200 K hit I figured I bet I could double that and soh I'm quickly on my way to 600 k. Other than routine maintenand and 44 or 5 sets of motor mounts and 3 sets of rear struthe car has been complethe trouble-free and in fact I still have never even serviced the AC And it's still blows cold. That's pretty amazing considering the car has spent its life with me here in Miami Beach. I would be kind of nervous to have all that weird weird electronic suspension crap but considering that is basically a Toyota Land Cruiser and I've seen at least 3 land cruisers with North of 700 KI guess it's better to have it in one of those than anything else.

      The 470 and 460 are great, but when driving them they feel like a 4runner. The LX and Landcruiser feel like a tank! They are built a bit better. Also, the factory hydraulic suspension on the LX is sooooo nice! It makes the truck float over bumps! Full tank gets you around 400 miles I believe. Not 100%. Depends on how you drive it.

    • @iamchaunceman

      The GX is the Land Cruiser Prado, the 4Runner and FJ are based of it. The GX is superior due to the front coil suspension. The LX/LC changed back to the coil over suspension in 2008. The GX is not based on the 4Runner but rather the other way around. The GX/LC Prado is the only Land Cruiser sold in many countries. We just get the big one, and the GX. In Australia they have them all, and Africa I believe, most folks here think there’s only one Land Cruiser because we only have one. But we actually have two.

If you get one that's an '03 and up you're going to have a 5 speed transmission instead of the 4 speed. Both are great... just the 5 speed has a better 1st gear. More pep when taking off. If you get it make sure the timing belt was changed and it it hasn't been make sure you change it!
