5 Things Toyota Got Wrong With The All-new 2024 Land Cruiser

I think the best news from this vehicle is that it excites me that the new 4Runner will be cheaper: which is what more people will buy.

Gotta hand it to Ford for opening manufacturer's eyes by proving people want smaller, cheaper, utilitarian trucks with the Maverick and making the old school boxy design relevant again with the Bronco. I was sick of seeing trucks/SUVS get bigger, curvier, more expensive, and luxurious every year. Powertrain aside (curse those EPA regulators) I think the trunk/SUV industry is heading in the right direction

Good video Jon. The 2023 4Runner is the last of the greats!!! It seems like all auto makers are making cheaper vehicles and asking for more money.

So far the Prado has never disappoints, cousin just sold his 2001 this last November after 21 years of trouble free driving.

Nice video and instructions Jon.What model is the best for land cruiser?

I think you’re spot on with your analysis. It really is a fantastic looking vehicle, very clean lines. I do wish we could of at least seen a V6.

Great list. I agree with what you said about the base model. I do think the engine is actually genius and do think people chuck their wheels and or tires right away anyway, so I don’t really care much about the tires being small. Honestly I love the return to what the Land Cruiser was, and never should have left. Leave the huge size, super fancy suspension, and ultra luxury to the Lexus. At least now the LC and the Lexus have a reason to both exist, and this is a return to a vehicle that is actually drivable around town in an easier fashion, and is actually affordable to a few of us

So glad you called out the lack of a flat space in the back... I like to off road and sleep in the back of the completely flat space in my 2001 Nissan Pathfinder. It is now leaking oil and I'm looking for the perfect replacement, this comes close but the lack of a flat space to sleep in is a dealbreaker...

Seems like a good vehicle. I will never buy the first year of any vehicle. Even Toyota has issues and comes out with improvements the 2nd year. I also want to see what the 4Runner looks like. Having a 5th gen 4Runner, I'm not in a big hurry to jump into a new model. Mine is already modified how I like it...I guess we'll see...

Good pro and con review. Thanks for taking the time to dissect what you saw and present it. 💯agree on the hood prop. No need to bring that back.

what I'd like to see 1. split tailgate like they've had on US Landcruisers for ages. 2. front locker 3. 4.7:1 transfer case or at least a single crawler gear 4. fold flat rear 5. on board air

The new Land Cruiser looked interesting for about a few minutes. Then I decided to keep my 5th gen 4Runner.

Thanks Jon! My wife is keeping GX, but I will decide between the LC and the 6th Gen 4runner, patiently waiting.

Great content as always, Jon. Keep it up!

Good video JON !! Now u have me changing colors 😀

To me the yellow pops more and i like it more then the other colors

I feel the same about that last dislike. No V6, even as NA premium option ... not even for the 1958, is a miss for Toyota.

Good perspective. A big thumbs up.

You know what the most under the radar miss is? Not having a shelf above the glove box on the passenger side like the Tacoma has. My older rav4 has one and it’s such a convenient place to put things. Every vehicle should have one.

No reason for tumble second row seats unless there is a third row. Otherwise use the 4Runner setup where the seat bottom flips forward and the back of the second row folds flat.
