"I have now decided to invest in building a G Wagon based rig. I looked long and hard at the Land Cruisers (100/ 200 / Lexus GX) but somehow they didn’t tug on my heart strings.." As a Rover guy, have you ruled out an LR4? All the offroad competency you would want; great over the road manners...

Bingo! I owned a Gen5 T4R, but did not like it. Great truck, but not a great truck for me. I'm shopping for an LC200, which I should have bought instead of the 4Runner to begin with.

Looks fantastic in white with the cloth Recaros. How are these turbodiesel powerplants over the paved roads? Can the truck comfortably run 65mph on the highway? Is the interior noise manageable?

Easy there, Zimm !! I don't see an LC200 losing quite that much in five years. Still, point taken. The GWagen is a brilliant play from a depreciation standpoint, even if they do reportedly eat window regulators like candy. In particular, the G500 Europas seem to be holding their value like...

Dalko43- Greetings to another Upstater. I agree with you that the low end of used LC200 purchase pricing starts around $25,000 (probably not many decent ones at that price, but I do believe that some are out there if one is patient, picky with pre-purchase inspection, and willing to look...

BigRogers, The fit was excellent. The truck was a 2006 Dodge Ram 2500 Ram Quad Cam Cummins 4x4. With Marathon (probably others?), you order the main front seat covers: a separate piece for each seat back and each seat bottom. Then, you can accessorize with headrest covers (I recommend the...

You might also take a look at www.marathonseatcovers.com . Custom fit (They have fitment for an LC100 on their website, but not an LC200). Made from Cordura. I ordered a set for a 2006 Dodge Ram 2500 Cummins years ago, and was extremely pleased with them. They saw heavy field and DIY project...

Awkragt, Thank you very much for posting the graphic. It is amazing how well the LC100s have held their value. It looks like you are driving yours in the near zero depreciation zone for awhile: a great place to be. The LC200s are still on a steepish decline, but, at least in my opinion...

MSTN: I don't think I was "extremely misleading". You didn't read my post in context, which was to provide prospective purchasers with some data points. Furthermore, I edited the post to correct a typo the morning after, not anything substantial. In any case, I continue to disagree with you...

("Not sure where you're finding LC 200's for $15k.") - I never said I found an LC 200 for $15k. $15k was the arbitrary low end of the price range I used in the search I ran on cars.com. ("Also, I'm curious as to why you didn't "bond" with the 4Runner but feel that a LC will be more to your...

Thanks for the replies, folks. I ran some nationwide searches on cars.com and came up with some data points that may be of use to someone. 200 Series: 2008-2011 LC 200s, any mileage, priced between $15,000 and $30,000. There are currently 16 of them for sale on cars.com in the U.S. Based on...

Patrick, that is a beautiful truck, modded up on the lighter side just the way I hope to do mine. (I recently posted up a query re: 100 v 200 Series, but love this GX of yours.) If I may, I will utter the "B" word. How are you finding the barn door style rear door? Was that door style off...

Folks, New member Mawgie here. I have been a longtime lurker on this Forum, and appreciate all the great information. I would appreciate some input. I am a two vehicle guy (a daily driver car plus an SUV or pickup), and am considering the purchase of a used Landcruiser to replace my current...
