Not the fastest SUV, but plenty fast (0-60 4.6sec) and fun to drive. I really enjoy driving it and coming from a CRV, it’s a big change Image

Interesting comparison on engine bay layout between the lc and tundra. The tundra has so much more room to spread everything out. Same 5.7 liter V8 in both.

That's great that they're available with a NA V8, instead of the force-fed V6s that are commonplace these days.

The Sequoia/Tundra is an excellent platform. My buddy put around 300k miles on his 2001 Sequoia with only routine maintenance.

Congratulations, those are two very nice trucks.

This is the last model year the V8 will be used on both the tundra and land cruiser. It’s one of the reasons we went ahead and got both!

Love the LC, congrats! Hope Toyota doesn't screw up the new model.

I've had my '21 Ridgeline for about 3 weeks. It's the entry Sport trim but still way more tech than my old Xterra had!

Gotta say, I’ve never been a Ridgeline fan but this new facelift makes me reconsider. I’ve always been a Ford truck guy and while my 150 isn’t going anywhere I’d consider the Ridgeline over a Colorado or Ranger. Congrats.

Yo Paul! Good to see you still clicking around in here :salute:

I love this truck. But I’m so impressed with the Land Cruiser. We did a 2 day offroad training course last weekend. Most of our time was spent in this beat up 100 series but then we took our 200 series out on some trails too and they’re just unflappable. Here are some more pics.

Oh, and re: the price, we got both from Mcgeorge toyota in Richmond and paid msrp for both. I know some dealers out west are trying to charge 5-10k premiums for any trd pros and some land cruisers. Inventory is tight everywhere. I traded in my 2018 Accord (still owed about 18k on it) and our 2010 F-150 for the Tundra.

I would love to do that one day. There are 3 different locations for the Land Rover one, and none of them are really close.

It’s worth it if you can make it happen! Conveniently, the NC location of OEX is only a little over an hour away from where we live.

Sup D! I was in Richmond a few days ago - have family there

I just bought a new Tacoma today, coincidentally, and it was 3K OVER MSRP - ridiculous. The global chip issue, other covid effects and people going insane buying everything in sight are causing prices on most big ticket items to go through the roof.

I bought now because they had the exact package I’ve been looking for and it would prly be another six months if I passed on the deal...

Anyway, congrats on your beasts!! You will have years of fun on the trails :cheers:

Nice! yeah, at McGeorge, they usually have like 600 cars on the lot and when we picked up my Tundra they had about 40 available for sale. It's pretty much the same across most dealerships and most brands! Insane. The LC sat in customs in California for a week before even clearing there. There have been tons of ships backed up at the major ports everywhere.

We've already got over 2,000 miles on the LC! I still haven't broken the Tundra in yet. I've only got about 230 miles on it so far. Emily really wants to put a bull bar on the front of the LC for "deer mitigation" mostly, but of course it adds options for recovery too! We'll probably go ahead and do the front bumper and get a hi-lift jack. If we keep seeking out trails (which we probably will) then we will add rock sliders and a winch. :)
