- This truck is going to unlock a whole new world of adventure... I found my DREAM truck for sale and flew halfway across the country to buy it, sight unseen. I take you on that trip with me, and share why this is my dream truck, and what the heck I plan to do with it. Big and fun plans ahead!

Just found your channel last night, and you kept me up all dang night watching..The fact that you already figured out life by living in a bus,having a great dog, and knowing that Toyotas are the most dependable vehicle out there make you even cooler! I pretty much embarked on the same journey in spring 2020. My Mom died of stage 4 cancer just weeks before her planned retirement of traveling the country. That inspired me to put off work and see the places she never go to. I bought a little Toyota RV and boy did i drive, 65K in three summers seeing 45 states. Theres something so visceral about seeing the country all by yourself, makes you realize whats really important in life. Anyways you do amazing work! Maybe someday i can meet someone like you!
Glad to see you pursuing and achieving your dreams. I just bought my first new sport bike. There’s something magical that happens when you start seeing dreams become reality.
That was perfectly said Rick. Thank you, and congrats on your bike!! Vehicles like these offer much more than transport, it’s an adventure.

I am so very happy that you said that.
Hearing your talk about the technical specs of the engines available in the Land Cruiser shows just how deep your enthusiasm is for this truck. You've obviously done your homework! My big sister had one of these back in the day and she LOVED it - bet you will too!

Welcome to the LC community! You just gained a follower. Great quality production, entertaining video, FZJ80, dogs and amazing views.
Wise choice of a truck! I also own a 1994 Land Cruiser and a 1998 4Runner. I would never ask for anything else! Yours should last a long time given the proper maintenance. Have a safe travel and adventure. And continue your passion...I love your videos!
As a long time Toyota (4-Runner, Tacoma) owner, your cool factor just jumped 110%. Congrats on the new rig!!! Awesome choice.
Great 4x4 choice ... toyota landcruiser 80 along with patrol Y61 are the best SUV ever made for real overlanding, cheers from Brazil
The 80 series landcruiser is a very popular vehicle here in New Zealand 🇳🇿 ( mainly the diesel version )
They are very capable and parts are very easily found
You have chosen an awesome vehicle
Happy 4wding 👍😎

Awesome!! I'm an overland guy and have been watching your channel for a couple years. So cool you're giving this a go. Yes, great vehicle. Make sure you change all fluids in the differentials and transfer case and check their breather tunes. If the previous owner did water crossings, your likely to find water in the diffs.
Anyway, excited for you. 😊
And get that winch line checked.😏❤
So glad you excited for this! And great suggestion, will do :)

Best truck ever! I recently sold my 1995 Toyota Tacoma 4 x 4. I owned it for over 20 years and it never needed any replacement parts except for one starter! During all those years I pulled kayak trailers full of kayaks, remodeled my house, hauled literally tons of rocks, three to five cords of wood every year and the thing ran like a top, handled like a sports car on the highway. I operated snow removal equipment in the Tahoe winters and that little truck got me to work, over the summits in 3 to 5 foot snow storms every time! I now have a 2500 sprinter van 4 x 4 and have just toured Alaska, Canada and now the US but I will purchase another Toyota someday. Good luck with yours, it’s awesome, great choice!
Alyssa, As soon as you said you mentioned that you were going to do a conversion, build out - the idea hit me! I'll put some of my ideas out there and use whatever you like, if any of it at all. I would look into one of those aluminum truck bed pull-outs. Or build your own to fit your needs. This would be where you place your mattress. You can then sleep inside or use the pull out bed during the nice weather days and make a custom fabric tent to attach to the rear hatch to keep you away from those nasty mosquitos, flies and whatnot and still keep you dry should it rain while you are sleeping. I have more ideas to go along with the pull-out bed idea - to make it all work. Ideas that would provide you with plenty of useful storage and other amenities, like one of those refrigerator freezer combos with dual lid compartments that run on 12v DC or 120v AC. (I happen to have and use the F40C4TMP 56Qt model myself. Not sure if it is still available.) Feel free to reach out to me or the MRS if you would like to hear any more ideas. She watches you on Instagram. I'm on here and FB only. All the best, Tony
Good for you Alyssa for pursuing your dream!!!!.I hope you have a blessed 30th birthday and may you have many, many more blessed days!!!

I had a Subaru Crosstrek 2020, and I love my car! I remember one of my siblings had one Toyota Land Cruiser, about the same year, the sound of that engine when you turn it on is a symphony!
We match! I have a white 97 and hope to get from Georgia all the way to the Pacific Northwest one of these days. I highly recommend you replace all fluids, get the upper intake manifold pulled and all carbon buildup removed. Replace all your vacuum lines and pull the EGR valve and clean it. Very important, get someone to inspect your main wire harness where it comes in close proximity to the EGR valve and then get it wrapped with a heat resistant tape. Enjoy and I look forward to seeing your adventures in the 80!
hi Lyss, the next phase has begun ... that truck is just what you need to carry it forward. Will be awesome to see where you go in your travels. 😄
Aw thanks David!! I’m so glad to hear you’re looking forward to the next phase too :)

Nice rig! Your taste in vehicles is 👌Can't wait for the off road content! One of the reason I bought a Tacoma is probably because of the reputation that the Land Cruiser built for Toyota.

Best 4x4 vehicle ever built, IMO. A literal tank with license plates
Few tips: I have had 3. I’m on my third and best one. It’s a tripple locked LX450 (97 Land Cruiser with Lexus badging and cladding). So, first thing, get manuals. They aren’t cheap. It’s a two books. I think Absolute Wits End sells them now. That’s a good sight for accessories, parts, etc for 80s. Also, lot of fake China parts out there, from big deal stuff, to belts. Get genuine. Order from a reputable site or just go to Toyota dealership parts center. Two common things with these, is the seal on the oil pump leaks. This is an easy fix, but you have to take stuff off. Then the big thing is head gasket. If this truck has and old or original head gasket, just get it replaced. If it goes, it tends to hydrolock the engine, which is catastrophic failure. Use Toyota fluids, like coolant. If you maintain it, it will last last and last. ARB bumpers are the best, super strong. Keep it. I know these aren’t cheap anymore. I sold my last one for 10 grand and picked up the LX450 for 7 grand. These days my LX450 in stock form would be 15 grand. A lot of people are catching on to these trucks. Nice truck. Hope you give us a little more of what’s been done to it. Suspension. Etc.
Looks like an awesome overlanding truck! That will let you explore a whole other section of the country deep in the woods. I am curious to see how you fit with Rio, Koji, and some basic camp stuff. I hope you have been practicing your Tetris moves! 🙂🏕🏜🏞😀
Oh my gosh I know! I’m still figuring it out 😂. Next week though, we’ll see how it goes. We’re getting out there! Exactly, I’ll be able to see parts of the country I never could in the bus.

The 90's really was a golden age for Toyota 4WDs. I have a 93 Hilux Surf (what you guys would call a 4Runner but with a manual gear box and turbo diesel). All the mods done to your 80 so far are top of the line stuff too. Who ever built that truck wasn't cutting corners. If you're going to use that snorkel to get wet, make sure the airbox is sealed and you've added diff breather extensions, two things a lot of people don't know they have to do alongside the snorkel for river crossings.
Congratulations! Great choice and looks like the previous owner had some fun with it and made some great additions. Never knew about the spare tank possibility. Awesome truck.

YES!! The legendary FZJ80 Land Cruiser!! Congrats! Its a beast!! Welcome to the club and I look forward to watching your build!
I would advise you to buy some NEW ball joints and have them ready...and possibly a new U-joint too-- just to have as spares-- because off-roading those are your weakest spots nad most likely to break if anything ever does- and if you have them WITH you- will save you a fortune in the long run. I would suggest a belt or two- and some other BASIC spare parts for emergencies.. GREAT VEHICLE.... glad you got it-- and good luck to you-- and again- LOVE that gorgeous smile of the joy your feeling!!! Stay safe. and Bless you.
It looks like Lyss is ready for the Australian Outback and river crossings, with her snorkel and winch at the ready.
Jim!! I’ve been thinking about you lately, and also thinking about my old videos, where I gave myself more space to talk about my inner world instead of the projects. I can’t wait to get back into the wild with this truck and dive into more life philosophy. I’m always most inspired when I’m in nature. 🤍 I hope you enjoy the adventures to come Jim.
I think* that is the same family of trucks as was used by Parker on Parkers trail in the Gold Rush Series last season when they were in New Zealand. Made me what one bad!

This type of Toyota is undestructible ! The best and from far !!! Your choice is PERFECT !
Awesome rig & choice 👍 you can’t beat the LC for durability & quality. I have a 1995 80 series LC with 235,000 Miles & going strong 💪. Many offers to sell but I’ll never give it up , can be expensive to repair & maintain but worth it in the long run. Good luck & safe travels wherever they may take you . 👍⚾️🧢😘
Congratulations on the Cruiser!! With manual hubs your transfer case might have been modded, so you may not have AWD/full time 4WD. Also 2 things that are great to have, a Full Service Manual (FSM) and a parts source... I use Back40Imports (Montana) and Francisco Perez from Tampa Florida.
Congrats on the new truck. Just a word of caution If you use that jack all jack mounted on your front bumper be careful they have been known to break arms or worse take out teeth from slipping or lose of control when letting the jack down or pressure off the jack. Your to good looking to be hurt or become tooth less.
Never stand over the handle of a high lift Jack. They can be lifesavers. And they can be killers too.

okay, I love all things 4x4, overlanding, yotas, nature, but I had to stop to video abruptly to say that this girl is gorgeously beautiful! she has got an amazing smile, dazzling eyes, is very articulate. i love the way she speaks, i felt like i was having a personal conversation with her and communication is a talent many don't have.
Congrats on the 80 series! Fantastic vehicles. I have had many over the years and still love them!
What an absolute beast! I can't imagine something in this shape was cheap but it's worth every penny for the soul. I hope to see some awesome slide-out builtins!

Hi Lyss Glad you brought an 80 series, just a friendly, the fix you did is only dealing with a symptom, not the cause and having the breathing hoses open in the engine bay is a fire hazard, in my experience a charcoal canister which deals with fumes and recycles them thru the intake won't cause an issue, there is a set of pipes on the fuel tank for breathing and equalising that will need to be checked and cleaned, part of the emission controls you have in the states. Enjoy your truck, your future adventures sound great Kia ora from NZ (Landrover the best 4X4 by far)

80 series LC!! You picked a beauty! Congrats and enjoy your new Overlanding community!
Welcome to the community!Toyota trucks are the best,but 80’s are the pinnacle!Now,now need a fridge,drawers,and a rooftop tent!
How can you afford everything ? I worked very hard since I was a teenager.Your bus,a house,furniture,vehicles,etc I don't understand. You must get a lot of money from people who watch you. How do you do? I'm just asks, not a bad thing . I just wanted to learn how you can afford so much. Congratulations on everything
She works as a marketing/tech pro, if I remember right
Daddys money.
Not daddy's money at all.
Looks like gas is going up to over 4 USD a gallon, so happy I moved to Colombia. What a train wreck the USA has become now. The current clown administration will soon ban this type of truck. You must buy Electric?
Honey you don’t have to tell me about gas, I lived in a diesel bus for 5 years 😂
Gas is $4.59 here in Honolulu it’s not been under $4 since November 2021
C 0 C A I N E. Columbia??
You are the sweetest woman I have ever seen.
Yeah because Columbia's is in a much better position than the US sit down and do your line of cocaine and zip it
I loved my FJ80. Had it for years, put in many adventurist miles. At that time I lived in Topanga Canyon and Specter Off Road is straight down 27 in Canogo Park. If you ever have trouble finding a part check them out. In the back county steeps it's the closest thing to a snow cat on 4 tires. (That can also be a daily driver). It didn't go fast up Loveland pass but it really is more of a tractor.
P.s. If you ever have problems with power steering replace the fluid reservoir before the pump. Keep grease in those knuckles and they will never fail. Enjoy!
Hi Alyssa I wanted to drop a piece of advice on using the winch that you never seem to see on TV or in Videos.
When you are winching (or towstrapping) something heavy enough where the cable has any chance of breaking;
put a coat or a blanket or similar item over the center of the cable when ready to pull. This way if it breaks the item
will act a sail and dissipate some of the energy, and can prevent damage and injury. I don't know why you don't see
this (on TV or vids) as it was the first bit of advice from my 4x4 club upon getting a winch. And it makes great sense.
Remembering to do that, and learning how to spool are key to safety. I'm sure you have many good advisors so I'm
just throwing out that one.
BTW my jeep club is represented on the moon. There is a sticker from our club(s) on the moon rover. It was developed
in Goleta (Santa Barabara) Where I grew up, so club members worked on it. Si if you ever go wheelin' on the moon.... 🌛
I was just thinking the same thing. Throw a coat over your winch line. And stay low if in the drivers seat while winching yourself out. They are seriously dangerous if the cable breaks.
Congratulations you did great. You cant go wrong with a 80 series. Have one for over 12 years and still running great. You wont look back nor change your mind. All the best in your adventure travels :-;
Our 1fze80 was the first real thing my wife and I bought when we got together. Still have it, and it’ll still go anywhere albeit not without plenty of fuel.
Don't forget to change the oil in all parts where the oil is (transmission, differential, and motor oil)
A true beauty (both ;) ). TLC 80 reliability is beyond anything, when I was living in Siberia 80s proved that it can survive everything (winter time is like -55 -60 for couple of months, -45 is normal winter weather; summer time +40), my pals have TLC with over 300k miles on it, some even went over 500k without any major repairs.
I’m personally drive TLC 80 96 though no hardcore as mountains or forest, just a plain road though I have it as a soul car so it wasn’t been driven in winter time and have mileage of 57k km (35k miles).
Congrats an awesome choice, I recall my series 80 fondly I had a 1995 Blue Marlin edition that came with an extended fuel tank and a few extras, loved driving it although it was heavy on fuel.
Funny how a girl on her own still needs another reason to be independent.......I've spent the last 12 years on my own and I can say unequivocally it's so much more when shared and witnessed, especially the feel, smell, sound and taste of it all.
I Love Your New Overland Rig, And Only wanted to Offer 2 Suggestions For It
1/ Look Into A Dual Battery System That'll Isolate To Keep One For Your Accessories And Can Double Up Automatically For Winching And Starting...
2/ If Your Winch Line Needs Replacing You Would Be Truly Happy To Look At Yankum Winch Ropes and A Matching Fairlead That Doesn't Leave Any Hook Out Front To Snag Or Catch On.....
All The Best With Your Great New Rig !!
Congratulations! Ive had every Land Cruiser model, even a 87’ JDM BJ74, and my 97 FZJ 80 is a dream to own. My 4 dogs love the sliding rear windows as much as I do!
Good job!❤️
I owned an 80's series landcruiser she was the best, the one I had was top of the range having all the bells and whistles and drove like a dream. I even had a guy off to clean swop me his brand new off the show room floor model 4x4 back in 2010 and I thanked him but said no as I loved my baby. Her name was La,la lol. Sadly I no longer have her but sure do miss her.
Welcome to the wonderful world of off roading and overlanding!! We need more strong educated women in this community! We are a family of Toyotas, 5 currently and always adding more. We are on the hunt for a west coast 80 series Land Cruiser, I say it will complete our collection. We have a 4 runner with all Land Cruiser running gear aka the Land Runner 😂 but it’s our dream to have the 80 series for camping with enough room for us and our 3 dogs. This truck is truly a find! Can’t wait to see what you make her!!
LOVE to see that gorgeous happy smile!!! YOur eyes are lit up like a christmas tree-- bright and gorgeous.. shows the real happiness in you. Be careful young lady- and take care-- glad to see you happy and see that you got what you DREAMED of-. THAT will make everything better. more enjoyable.
Welcome to the 80 party! Already looks well kitted externally, but make sure to have your wallet handy at all times and get acquainted with iH8Mud 😜
Excellent choice, and even their best color. For a vehicle only 16ft long, I love how much space they have. Removing all rear seats was one of the first things I did to mine.
Wow I got almost the same truck 96 LX450 same bumper and extended gas tank same lift and color :) you will love it !!!!! Best ever made ...took it all over Utah / Idaho / Ozarks / Michigan .....beast of a truck.
I have had that dream before too but glad I woke up & got some advise from a friend who races off road. I took jis advice & bought the SUV to build up & happy I did. A full size Bronco it is or was old it is maybe or close the originnal full sixe 4x4 SUV wit Twin Traction beam independent front suspension It built by me mostly in my grage. Now it is what they call a luxury prerunner the super truck/SUV for off road gears & lockers get where you want in large tires with a built drivetrain & internal ballenced big V8 motor 75 MPH over 3 foot whoops without spilling your cofee & landing smooth as you could imagine after over a surprise at higer speed 6-8 feet in the air is what I dream of & happy to have permagrin on King shozks ever time I am off Road.

Hi from South Africa and congratulations on your new truck. It is probably one of the most reliable and capable off road user friendly vehicles ever built. Here is South Africa we have a company called Front Runner and they make custom fit accessories for your your LC. They export to the US and you can find their products in some of the shops there. They make a great drawer system and many other useful and very robust products for the LC. Happy travels and enjoy your LC.
Congratulations, i got my new 4x4 as well. Enjoy your Offroad journeys🎉
I got my dream ride a few years back. 06 Hummer h3. 5.3 swapping it soon and turning it into a bulletproof set up for nomad life. Glad to see you getting your ride you always wanted, it’s a great feeling ✌️
A lot of work went into installing those manual front hubs. No 80 series came with manual hubs...because they're all full time 4WD. Now, if your manual hubs are installed correctly, you no longer have a locking diff in your transfercase. Your center diff lock button will function as your part time to full time 4WD engagement.
Vow . 🥰🥰. What a nice 80. I just flew 2 weeks ago to San Jose CA , Picked up a Stock Rust Free White 96 LX450 with 230K miles from a private party and drove back to Philly. What a drive that was. 3000 miles. No Hiccups. It's a Legend. I am guessing you paid a nice chunk 💰 for the 80. It's built with purpose. You will definitely enjoy the 80.
I love hearing you talking about every detail of this LC, we can feel your passion and love for it. What a great machine you got there! Enjoy it and live it!
Great choice! Get a steering lock, hide a fuel pump or ignition kill switch somewhere to help keep it from getting stolen. Get a vehicle tracker, but not one that plugs into the OBD port. Don't tell anyone about any of it. Also, hide an Apple Air Tag.

Hey Alyssa. The LandCruiser seems pretty minty. Nice score. I recently bought my first 98 Toyota Hilux Surf with the nicely torquey 3.0L diesel 1KZ-TE. So I can empathize with your comment about "soul"...
That is one BadAss vehicle! I am green with envy! Hope you have a lot of great journeys with it. Happy # 30! Stay safe!
FZJ80 is the best I have a 93 FZJ80 with factory lockers also I love it!!!
I'm impressed by your knowledge of vehicles. Both this truck and your bus...you knew exactly what year/motor you wanted! You really know how to research and find what you are looking for. She is a beauty!! You are going to have so much fun!!

Love Land Cruiser recognized the interior right away. Since that vehicles coming from Sacramento, and it is going to Colorado where they salt the roads, recommend a good under coating as soon as possible and maintain the frame, body, doors, so that it doesn't start rusting.
I think you did GREAT--- the NEWER vehicles don't hold up like those do... it will prove to be a VERY worthy investment.. Makes me feel better knowing you have that.. I've never met you- but I worry about you out there alone---but now feel BETTER -- you're a wise young lady-- and gorgeous too!!! STAY SAFE..
I always knew Land Cruisers were super capable and renowned world wide but I never knew some of them came with triple lockers?! That is beyond cool! About as capable as you can get unless ya put tank tracks on it! Lol 😍🤘🏼
Hi all good morning happy Monday morning and I hope you having amazing weekend and I loved your vlogs and you all amazing Supporter
So happy to see this v.s. some kinda Jeep. Landcruisers are the real deal, so much more soul and crazy reliable. Enjoy!
Treat it like a plane, replace parts BEFORE they go out. Do a 100% service, replace the thermostat etc before it goes out at an inconvenient time like the charcoal canister did.
I was crying the whole video.... You are living my dream life... Camper with Dog, amazing house and Dog, 4runner, two Dogs, winter, beautiful landscapes and amazing Land Cruiser... I wish this was my life... In my opinion the only thing what's missing is A Man. The company to share all this great great experience. Wish You all the best and staying with my dreams and how to make them reality.

GREAT choice! I've got a 1996 Landcruiser and I freaking love it. congratulations.
A roof tent will give you all that your bus offered and the cruiser gives you the option to see more....great choice
If you get up near Cody, Wyo sometime in the future hit me up and I’ll show you Kirwin. I have a ‘96 Dodge 12 valve that I love to take up in the mountains. And enjoy 30! What a wonderful time in life!
The Landcruiser would be the number 1 selling 4x4 in Australia, we have a Toyota Rav 4 which is 23 years old 340000 kilometres on the clock and he’s still chugging along, Toyotas are fantastic vehicles especially the older ones, they were built to LAST, nice buy❣️
oh yes! triple locked! the holy grail of the factory built FZJ80! Good for you!!!
You are correct on all the logic & reasons as to why to purchase this particular truck Lyss. In essence you went sort of "old school" which does allow you to do more of the needed work and such yourself! This will certainly w/no doubt provide you w/many new adventures-videos to come! 👍👍👍

You got my truck! Crap! Those trucks are definitely the best 4x4s out there ever made.... congrats and Happy Birthday!
Awesome 80!! Looking at one just like it right now. Had an fj40 and always wanted another. But the 80 is big enough for family adventures. And ALL trucks have issue son the trail!! No matter the year there is always something that comes up.
Daaaaaaamn 🎉❤ You got the Millennium Falcon right there! 🤙🏽 Nice!!!
This is so cool 😮looks so much fun to go 4x4ing like this. Please make more videos like this 🤩🤩🤩🤩
This girl just rose a few notches in my book for her truck knowledge
Keep up the good work
I’m on a similar journey, just got myself an LX 450
Amazing purchase of the Toyota. Glad to see you are still exploring different aspects of travel. Safe travels on your new adventure and chapter in life.
Hi from Australia
I just gone across your comment and thought you might like to look at my set up, Australian 🇦🇺locations and camp cook ups,

Ooooooo I see a straight front axle!
I recently (Nov 2022) bought a 2003 4Runner 4wd V8 Limited to full fill my dreams of 4 wheeling again. Straight axle front end models are extremely expensive these days. I looked for four months before buying. Most of the first ones were complete rust buckets underneath.
You bought the best offroad vehicle ever created on the planet...congratulations..🤘🏻
If you’re keen on LandCruisers come to Australia and check out the 70 series.
