I want one

Ideal car for this part of the world, go anywhere in the national parks, good for beach fishing, tow a good sized boat, comfortable and safe, and plenty fast enough if you get the V8 or the 4.2 turbodiesel

I don't pay much attention to new cars, so I have no idea.

 

[Demon-Xanth]

Yes. They're also known as the Lexus LX470 iirc.

 

[Demon-Xanth]

Btw, they're $56k. And there is only one engine option, a 235HP V8.

Silver or White i think...

I never liked 4Runners or Land Cruisers myself. Then again, I don't much like SUV's in general.

 

[amol]

Yes, Toyota LandCruiser and Lexus LX470

 

[QuitBanningMe]

Yes

and screw the new ones. I had an FJ40 I wish I would have kept.

Yeah, it's all about the old-school Land Cruisers

They are indeed sold in the US as such. And yes, one engine option, the 4.7L iForce V8... no more diesels in the US since the EPA and CA hate diesels for some odd reason. Thankfully NJ still lets you buy diesels.

Quite nice cars but I hated working on them because they are so friggin big and heavy. Then again, Sequoias were even worse for that. Fuel economy is piss poor but if you can afford one or have been driving an SUV, you probably don't give a crap.

Are you speaking of the original FJ-40 Land Cruiser or the newer wussified version?

 

[toant103]

are you going to take a $60k suv off roading?

Isn't that the only way to justify a 60K suv?

One of my AYSO soccer coaches had one. I approved
