2025 LC 1958, color is whatever Toyota calls this same bound-to-peel white this year Kevin @ovʀʟxnᴅ Purchased in December of 2024. Previous Prado-based rigs were a 2006 Lexus GX470 and a 2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser. It had 9 miles when I took it for a test drive, 27 miles when I left with it, and...

Titan parts are great for building Xterras.

I've had too many lowballs on Marketplace, so if you see it on Facebook, it's listed at $2,000 more than it is here.

If it ever stops raining here, I'll get it up on the lift and take some pics. Virginia Beach doesn't get much snow. Minor surface rust in a few places, but excellent overall.

Most recent exterior pics below. I'm trying to show it as honestly as possible. There's some peeling paint, a couple minor dents, and some trail pinstriping. I have used and enjoyed this truck, but have taken good care of it. The original owner had it serviced at a local dealership. [VIN...

There are lots of options, but I have been very happy with my Jackery 100w foldable panel.

I always put a tarp under the tent to keep the tent bottom clean. Tarps are easy to roll up dirt to dirt and to rinse off at home. Tents are better preserved being protected this way.

I bought a 2025 in December of 2024. It gets ~22 mpg well loaded, but stock. I don't yet know the longevity of anything. The only problems I heard from the first model year were wind noise from the mirrors and roof racks, although the recurring gauge cluster notifications are widely despised.

Go read the article. It's practically misinformation. In my fleet, I have a 2012 Ford Escape. It's a FWD unibody SUV like the rest, but it is technically capable of a 50/50 torque split, so it is 4WD. Compared to a Honda CRV or Toyota Rav4, will that minor detail matter to the trail? Not a...
