I originally had ordered the HT with Sunrider and was going to splurge on the XR with 35's. Then I realized you can't get the XR with 6MT. Bummer, so I rerouted those funds to the SOT and I'm really glad I did. While I love the look of the XR, realistically my use case is 99% on road, 1% off...

Wow, 45 days is ridiculous. I've seen that thread but so far mine hasn't had that issue (fingers crossed at 5k miles). Mine is blessed with the slight hesitation issue common to the 2024 Pentastar. Latest thinking on JLforum is faulty knock sensors. Not bad enough to really bother me, but I...

I loved my 100. I got in line for a new LC 250, but I'm just not a fan of 4 cylinder turbos and the hybrid adds another layer of complexity I was looking to avoid. Not to mention all the dealers around me were adding stupid ADM so it was going to be $70K+ for the mid tier edition - no thx. The...

Been in the LC section for the past 10 yrs. Really enjoyed that rig, but living in the salt belt the rust was really starting to spread like cancer. So I ordered my first Jeep. A '24 Willys V6 6MT w/ 33's, rear locker, and SOT. Loving it so far - let the new adventures begin!

As you may already know, Stellantis CEO was given the boot recently. He simultaneously raised prices and cut costs across the board to the point where people voted with their wallet. My buddy has a 2020 Sahara that he bought used in 2022 for $40K. He loved it so much he gave to his daughter...

I've heard mixed reviews on the 6MT. Some say the clutch is too soft and has no feel. Others say it's fine once you get used to it. I've already ordered a new pedal spring for ACT which is supposed to dramatically affect the feel. We'll see but I'm not too worried about it. Yea, I splurged...

Yes, in 2024 they made some really nice upgrades to the Willys including the rear locker, 4.10 rear, Dana 44 axle, 33" KO2's, Rubicon fenders, etc. It was the perfect combination of features and price which is why I chose it as the LC replacement.

I like the simplicity of the Pentastar and it had plenty of torque (to me). Drove both engines back to back and I much preferred the feel and sound of the V6 (especially coming from a V8).

New to Jeep. Current DD is a 2003 Toyota LC with 210k miles. Picked it up from the original owner a decade ago with 88k miles. I've appreciated it's legendary reliability and bank vault like quality. I've been looking for a replacement vehicle for a while now. Ended up ordering a 2024...

The GX550 pricing is out - starts at $63k up to $79k with the overtrail at $67k (33" AT's, rear locker, etc). LX600 starts at $93k up to $133k with no Overtrail type option. Since you're on this forum is it safe to assume you're looking for something to overland in? If so, I'd wait for the...

After watching loads of videos and hearing LC fans comment about the LC250 in person, I think it's going to be closer in feel to a 4runner than a 200. If that's the case I don't think it's a bargain at 55 if a Willys is 46. The Willys is a throwback in time - solid axle, 33" BFG KO2's, 4.10...

I think the new LC looks great. However, Toyota said the lowest trim will start at $55K, not $50K. Even without any dealer markup, it will likely be $60K with a few options. I was strongly considering ordering one as a replacement for my 100 series that I love. I wish they could pipe in 5.7L...

Bringing this thread back up to see how you've made out with your Hundy? I too have an '03 that I've been working hard to keep the tin worm at bay up here in the salt belt. I'm just getting a little bit of rust on the body above the rear driver side tire and corner of the driver side fender...

I believe 2019 and 2020 were only available in Black and White w 2 rows. In 2021, the HE was offered in Gray and Silver in addition to Black and White with an available 3rd row. I wasn't aware of any 2022 LCs? Would be interesting to see the sold by color break down.

$45K for an FJ Cruiser seems insane. Can't you find a mint 80 series diesel there for that money?

Yes, I'm sure that will be the case. The largest volume LC dealer in the US is Ed Martin Toyota in Indiana where their GM is a regular contributor over on IH8MUD. He was advertising a while ago that he could get anyone a 2020 LC for $80K. Not HE. They are currently offering $5K off msrp for...

If it wasn't $90K, I'd order one of the last HE's - in Silver please :D

Assuming you have an LX470, I wouldn't be concerned about 200k miles as long as you've kept up on the maintenance? Should be on it's 2nd timing belt by now, steering rack known to need replacement about now ($$$$), and AHC are likely the big issues with your rig. If you're rig has no rust...

Congrats on the new rig and nice pics of your fleet - which ones do you still own?

You've already discovered why we own and love our Land Cruisers: "I have now owned the vehicle for 30,000 trouble free miles. The vehicle is tight, AC cold, heat is hot and no squeaks or rattles after 20 years on the road - all the things I heard were true!" If you want to make your LX less...
