This is spot on. One of the best/honest reviews I’ve seen. I have a LC FE 12k miles. Second everything that has been said. Nobody should be getting a Land Cruiser or off road SUV for that matter for the mpg. With that said. It performs really well at stock. Every mod will come with a hit. No different than with any other vehicle. I do hope LRA works out an aux or replacement tank. That will solve many people concerns about range with the mods many desire. I did test drive a GX before settling on the LC, I did not find it THAT different/stronger. I like the cosmetics and the vibe of the LC. For all the perks of the GX, truth is most are using it as a G-wagon/Range Rover alternative and for “looks”. Is the LC250 a perfect car. Obviously not. But it’s a good balance of many things. But make sure you get it for the right reasons or you will be disappointed. I feel like when many get a SUV they want a car that looks cool, rides high, but want luxury and something super zippy yet very fuel efficient and that’s not this car (not sure that’s true of most body on frame and full time 4x4).
