Hey brother, good to see you make vids again 👍 these Landcruisers are very common here in Aus cause they pretty much cover every aspect everyone needs in a car (except good fuel consumption 🤪) but I never knew how people could afford them, most are upwards of $100k
Thanks for this goal video. We got one of these in 2009. It’s a GX R with a V8 4.6 L, almost 280 hp, but it has been very reliable over a decade and we never think to sell it.
Please never delete this, This is the most relatable videos I have ever watched, I have been watching your other videos, but after getting my first car in highschool. I just appreciate my older 2005 Toyota Camry even more.
I’m a fellow 2013 owner, white with tan interior. I’ve got 185k miles on it and it runs like a dream. Nothing more than basic maintenance. I took out the third row, lifted it 2”, and have 275/75R18s on the stock wheels. Other than that, it does all its duties without fail. It’s the best daily driver I've ever owned.
Hell yeah. White was my first choice. That's all I'm planning on doing as well: rubber mats, delete 3rd row, and all-terrains. I've been on the fence with a small lift - how has that impacted ride quality?
The 100 series has another model that wasn't released in USA, the 105 series. There are a lot of differences between the 2, the main 1 being the 105 has a solid front axle and coil sprung, and different chassis and wheel offsets. Also the 105 only had basic petrol and diesel N/A engines. No factory turbo or V8 options. offsets.
@@dominicscaliseoh that’s just the beginning. Australia has just about every numbered land cruiser you can think of, 70, 76, 79, 80, 100, 105, 120… They even get a land cruiser pickup 😅
Hey Nick! This was fun to watch. I’m going to take at least partial credit for your driving skills since you spent so much time playing Mario Kart at my house with my son Jonathan when you were a kid !!
Great review, enjoyed that. Agreed, the greatest SUV of all time. If I didn't buy my Lexus ISF and decided to go down a different route, I would've bought a Land Cruiser.
Holy crap, it's a treat to come across an underrated channel. You've got such an entertaining style I was genuinely surprised to notice you only have 5k followers!
This is the Lionel Messi of SUVs and vehicles. Sounds corny, but I’ll say it. This is the greatest vehicle ever made. It is the most iconic, legendary, reliable, durable, and special car in the world. That’s it there’s nothing more to it than that. One more time, Lionel, Messi and Land Cruiser , the two greatest of all time.
I think terrorist groups have known that for a very long time...... ask Hezbollah, ISIS, Taliban, al Qaeda, Hamas, etc why they only attack the USA military using the Toyota Landcruiser and Toyota Hilux truck...... so tough that the UN made it its official vehicle since the 80s..
Solid review. Own the same truck and continue to search for folks that enjoy it as much as I do. Built like a tank - looks like a toaster. While I appreciate the overlanding mods many do, keeping it stock obviously preserves the stealth... Love it
Thank you! I've been on the fence about doing ~ 2' lift + All Terrains (that's all I'd do) but I don't want to take away from the stealth/ride quality.
It is actually desirable overseas because of its powerfull twin turbo V8 4.5L Turbo Diesel engine. Average price for that model was always around $120k USD, yet, you find it expensive for $80k, thats actually the price of the smaller PRADO, which will now be available next year as the "new Land Cruiser" in the states.
sound system not goog, did you adjust that JBL ? bose or Harman Kardon are similar to that, very good indeed. i have that in mine LC200 and comparing to Burmester on S class i dont feel the diference. the only thing that i really dont like are the brakes, very bad ( resistance and durability of pads )
Solid. As a fellow LC 200 owner, I may be biased, but this was a joy to watch. You’re my people. Editing and commentary are 🤌🏻 Excited to watch your channel grow, unless you’re actively working to keep it in that same IYKYK vein.
Thank you! The 100 series is my favorite looking Land Cruiser; I find them so classy. The 06-07s in particular have some upgraded parts the make it a bit more special, including a motor that puts out some extra power from previous years. Those two years carry a premium but will always be sought after because of their rarity.
Thank you! It's good to be back. You got that right! In town gas mileage is laughable, but on the highway it's actually eeked out some decent MPG, at least compared to some other cars I've had. I had an 80 series too! It was a champ.
Landcruisuers are so good because the customisation is endless. My friend has a 2013 200 series with a set of drawers in the boot and a pull out kitchen top, on top of the drawers. Progaurd bull bar LED system belly plates with winch. Big batwing 270 awning with a rooftop tent. Running 33’s with a 3 inch lift. It’s an absolute beast 💪🏼
My first was a 2014 one that i had for two years, last year bought a newish 2021 model and its still a beauty. They call this the last car in our country. As in, the last car you will need to buy! Greetings from 🇿🇦
@@waldorph2000 upgrading to the final facelift of the 200 series is likely my next car. Any notable differences in ride quality or anything else that’s a standout upgrade from your 2014?
@@dominicscalise yes! Surprisingly it is much more powerful and faster especially when you press the power button. Seat ventilation also works better. There are speakers in the rear boot lid which means you can hear your music better when sitting on the split tail gate. But you also learn that all 200’s regardless of year are pretty amazing and you cant go wrong to buy one :)
I can’t wait to buy a 2016+. I have an 06 100 series and it’s perfect (AHC still works perfect even). I test drove a 200 series and it’s really just another level of comfort and capability. You are lucky to own one!
Maybe you have driven the wrong spec non ahc 100 series. You should check out 2007 land cruiser amazon UK spec with rear infotainment and orginal headphones. It has all the bells and whistles. 98k miles for 24 grand. Its also in rare blue color.
I had an 05 LX470 and it was an amazing ride, smooth, quiet, super comfortable. Didn’t think it could get better then I got a 14 LX570 and it was so much better. Then we got a 17 LX but that doesn’t ride as nice as the 2014, most likely because of the bigger wheels and tires it has.
I'm selling my e92 M3 and need to upgrade to a family SUV. I'm looking at a '14 LC with 94k miles for $39K (good condition). Do you still recommend, should I pull the trigger??
I went from an e46 M3 -> G500 -> 2013 LC. Man, I’m over the moon with the LC. I love M3s, and BMW is so considerate with their design choices, but the 200 series Land Cruiser is capable, comfortable, and reliable. The fact that they hold their value so well means you can’t lose.
Great video! Love your sense of of humor, deserve more subs for sure. I was going to comment on your boots, and just found out you have it all in the channel, and I though it was a car channel only.
Thanks, Miguel! I’m a general good thing enthusiast - so if you dig those boots, I’d bet you’d like the other items on my channel. I’ve noticed these things are all strangely tied together.
i have the same car (diesel version - gen 2). I have exactly the same opinion on this car. I just love it. Even more than the 100 i had before. The only downside is that maintenance is expensive.
Gonna be traveling through Kansas City soon (in a 4runner not a Land Cruiser unfortunately) and was told Majestic was one of the best steak houses in town. Is this a IYKYK spot?

Losing the split tailgate and not having a split tailgate option on the new lx600 and newer Land Cruisers before they were no longer available was a terrible decision on Toyota's part in my opinion.
I’ve owned a 2013 200LC and the JBL Sound System was quite impressive, not as bright as the ML from the 200LX. There’s honestly nothing better than these, no GM product, Ford, Nissan, etc.
@@dominicscalise it's a great compliment if you've watched Quentin tarantino movies, they describe things in unique ways and that's what u were doing if you don't realise it, I'm amazed , and impressed, keep it up,
Although I’ve never over a Landcruiser, I have owned three Lexus LX’s. Currently daily driving a ‘19 LX570 and it’s just unreal. The Lexus LX is definitely one of those “ if you know you know “ type vehicles. When I tell people it’s relatively the same thing as a Landcruiser some don’t know what to say and others just don’t care 😂 Check out my ownership reviews in my channel of my lx570s.
I work in oil & gas, travel a lot and guess what is the ultimate luxury car in 75% of the world. 3/4 of the world is full of potholes and the roads are not as good as we think. Having one of these either in EU or the US is definetely having the most overengineered car in the market.
I have a lot of cars including 3 SUVs - Supercharged 2009 Range Rover, 2013 G550, and 13 TLC.... on paper TLC is the best one of them all, but after owning it for 2 years I can also say it's the most boring of the 3 and the one I drive the least. It simply has no character. Breaks are aweful, laser guided cruise control always forces the car to downshift whenever I go up the hill or pass someone. Seating position is ok, but the materials are very questionable. IDK, I still have mine, but don't think I will keep it for too long...

A subscriber recommended that I turn off all the stereo system “enhancers” which really helped
i appreciate your sense of humor very much😂
Thank you!
This is the Land Cruiser review we didn’t know we needed, but here we are. Sold. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Haha Thank you!
you should review cars more often
It's like I was watching John travolta describing his cheese burger, this is a very nice way of showcasing, arigato gozaimasu
I'm not sure if this is a compliment or not
@@dominicscalise it's a great compliment if you've watched Quentin tarantino movies, they describe things in unique ways and that's what u were doing if you don't realise it, I'm amazed , and impressed, keep it up,
@@luqmxnyonkou5650 Thanks!
What a cripsy, cruncy & nice review :)

Although I’ve never over a Landcruiser, I have owned three Lexus LX’s. Currently daily driving a ‘19 LX570 and it’s just unreal. The Lexus LX is definitely one of those “ if you know you know “ type vehicles. When I tell people it’s relatively the same thing as a Landcruiser some don’t know what to say and others just don’t care 😂
Check out my ownership reviews in my channel of my lx570s.
Yeah basically the same thing! They are such great trucks. Can't get over how enjoyable it is to daily.
I work in oil & gas, travel a lot and guess what is the ultimate luxury car in 75% of the world. 3/4 of the world is full of potholes and the roads are not as good as we think. Having one of these either in EU or the US is definetely having the most overengineered car in the market.
Great review! Got yourself a subscriber
Thanks for the love! Means a lot.
As soon as you flipped me off I already knew I was gonna like the video
Haha love that
I have a lot of cars including 3 SUVs - Supercharged 2009 Range Rover, 2013 G550, and 13 TLC.... on paper TLC is the best one of them all, but after owning it for 2 years I can also say it's the most boring of the 3 and the one I drive the least. It simply has no character. Breaks are aweful, laser guided cruise control always forces the car to downshift whenever I go up the hill or pass someone. Seating position is ok, but the materials are very questionable. IDK, I still have mine, but don't think I will keep it for too long...
@ the 8:34 mark is the kind of guy that becomes obsessed with LCs, among other reasons…ask me how I know 😅
you should put the facelift bodykits
I’m gonna keep this one basically stock.
Bro you have good taste. Went from one good suv to the next
Thank you!
I love the LX series, it's still the V8 but not a new age luxury. It has the stock lift, but still the soccer mom with a attitude look.
Totally. Such a great truck.
Heyy that's me ! 😀
Return of the King

awesome review man!
Thank you!
