The LX470 was never available with a diff locker in the US. Only the 98-99 had an available rear diff locker in the US, but all 100s have a center diff lock just like the Sequioa. The main selling point between the 2 is more space and probably mpg in the Sequioa, but maneuverability and off road...

That looks like a great deal.

It really depends on your long term plans and usage for it, but I think that's a very decent price and would drive it as a DD without hesitation. I personally wouldn't buy it as a platform to build for an around the world expo platform, but for an every day truck that you use occasionally off...

Where in Colorado are you?

Are you referring to mine? Close they're 285/75/17 and measure a true 34" which is what a lot of 35s measure height wise. They're only 11" wide though so they fit great and are lighter than a typical 35.

That looks really good on the 200.

Wow that's a bit strong if not a bit misguided. Unfortunately if you get in a wreck and you're trying to make an insurance claim, they are ultimately the ones with the power. Fixing a decades old truck with significant damage is not usually a winning bet for an insurance company for obvious...

That would be great, but that's not how it works. They cut him a check for $5k and THEY take ownership of the truck.

$5k is a lot more than I would have expected for a first offer from an insurance company, but I do think you would have been able to get more for it if you still had it pre-wreck and listed it for sale on the open market. Value varies quite a bit based on region, but I'd expect around $7k maybe...

I should have clarified that I was referring to US spec vehicles only.

AHC is standard on all LX570s, but they did not get KDSS. KDSS was standard on all 200 series LCs, but they did not get AHC.

Any idea how these fit on the 200?

It kind of is like that I guess. I don't discriminate on vehicles - I've owned and loved everything from a 1991 Toyota pickup to my loaded 2014 Land Cruiser (with a lot of Jeeps in between including a JKUR on 37s recently), but to try to compare a 4Runner to a new 200 on a spreadsheet is totally...

LOL it's clear you don't get it.

Nice! I really dig this truck and tried to justify it a few times even though I have absolutely no need for another vehicle :)

You can be defensive if you'd like, but that's not helping anyone. Some of us have looked at dozens of 200s for sale for years in person and driven them and know first hand that most lower priced ones have been trashed and/or totally rusted out. You should provide links to those low priced ones...

I think you edited your post from what it said earlier, but either way this wording is extremely misleading. I highly doubt you're seeing any 200s for less than about $25k, and I would bet money you're not finding any for $15k unless they have a salvage title even then it's extremely unlikely...

I waited for a couple years for the 200 series to drop in value thinking it would be easy to find a nice clean early one in the low $20s. I looked at probably 8-10 that were absolutely trashed with high miles and ended up selling for somewhere in the $30s and gave up for a while. I ended up...

You traded a Liberty for a Touareg in search of better reliability?! :Wow1: No offense but neither is good in that department, and if anything the VW will likely be worse than the Jeep.
