    Those things are super nice. If I could afford it I would have done the same.

    Very cool - don't see those often! Any intentions on mods? I meeeeeeean it is close to a 100k vehicle so doubtful but it's worth an ask!

    The 200 series is pretty sweet, but out of my budget

    On another note.... Grants Pass oregon? Grew up down in Gold Beach and have family still up there. Roll through every once in a while visiting them up there.

    LMAO. If you say so. I'm sure that's relative.

    To bad they don't give those more style, the older ones are "Bad Ass". I think Toyota dropped the ball on these. I looked at them, the 12" screen on the back of the front seats are a complete turn off. Park that rig in the wrong part of town and you're just asking to get broken into.

    Park in the wrong part of town? With a rig like that you tell the chauffeur to park it in the right part of town when he drops you off at the yacht club.

    Not trying to be mean, but Toyota had some killer Land Cruisers back in the day. They were so popular, they never made it to the lot. Now, I see 4 or 5 at each dealer.

    I would have waited for the 4Runner and put the other $45k in the Bank.

    And to your point about the "Chauffeur" come on man, it's a Toyota!

    I would love the 4runner, but waiting for it is killing me! Since I bought LC I have no money left for any mods. Maybe in couple years I will pay off then I will do the mods.

    hell no man. I doubt any Soccer Mom's ride has the ROI of this beast. Congratulations!!! I would've done the same if my wallet was that deep. :)
