Howdy everyone - I wanted to introduce you to my 2008 Lexus LX570. I got my start on Expedition Portal in the Domestic / Full Size forums with my 2004 Chevy Z71. It was a great truck for as long as I owned but ultimately it lived up to it's reputation and ate it's own 4L60e. After that I moved on and bought my LX.
I bought my LX bone stock, mom-certified with 96K miles. It does not have the "premium" package so no Mark Levinson, no DVD screens, no power 3rd row. It had clearly never left pavement. I promptly rectified that—ignoring the fact that it still wore 20" wheels and p-metric Bridgestone Duellers.
3 years later, here's how I've modified the truck to suite my needs:

3 years later, here's how I've modified the truck to suite my needs:
- "Full size" Toyota Land Cruiser 200 roof rack with 4 custom 8020 extruded aluminum cross bars
- 18" Toyota Tundra SR5 wheels, rattle-canned with VHT wheel paint
- 25mm/1" billet aluminum wheel spacers
- 275/70/18 Cooper STT Pro tires (previously had Falken AT/3Ws)
- Slee LX570 sliders
- Baja Squadron SAE fog lights with Tundra fit kit
- Trail Tailor front and rear recovery points
- ARB dual compressor mounted on a Slee bracket
- X2 Power 27F AGM battery
- Hard-mounted Noco 4A trickle charger (it's not a daily driver)
- DIY cargo drawers with a Dometic fridge slide
- ARB 50l refrigerator
- Goal Zero lithium battery
- Blue sea Marine panel in the cargo area
