:siren:NEW PROJECT:siren:
Replacement LX 470 found on page 7 of my thread


Current/getting better:

A growth has developed on the backside in April

:siren: after three great years I have sold it and moved on to a 2013 LX570:siren:

I also decided to try my hand at importing things from Glorious Nippon after watching KakerMix have all the fun.


A 1996 Land Cruiser Prado and 1994 Hilux Surf. Both with diesel power.

New money sink

2013 LX 570 with 130K miles. Will be largely maintenance with a few key upgrades for off-road and towing/camping duties. Relatively minor as far as "projects" go but detail for car camping adventures.
