    I grew up with a 2004 100 series. The 2UZ-FE V8 always put a smile to my face. We owned it for over 310K miles before we decided to donate to charity due to the repair bills getting too expensive (rust belt state) someone bought it at auction for 10 grand back in 2016! Allegedly, it gets to live offroad up in Maine!

    I was lucky enough to have an '85 Diesel BJ60. Adored it, and it's bullet-proof 4 cyl engine and rock n' roll attitude, but unfortunately the frame rusted out. This week I've returned to the family with a gorgeous black beauty 2000 LX470, with a rocket fueled V-8. Thank-you Toyota for creating one of the best lines of cars ever made.

      Kiddomike Can someone please tell me the difference between a 200 series and the regular land cruiser? I own a 2002 4.7L Land cruiser, is it a 200 or just a regular one?

    • @Kiddomike
      @Kiddomike 9 лет назад +6

      Nekson smith Well, it's not a 'regular one'. If I'm not mistaken you have the 100 series Land Cruiser, a predecessor to the current model of Land Cruiser. The 200-series Land Cruiser has a similar platform with Lexus's LX570. Toyota also claims that the suspension is more heavy duty than the previous model Land Cruisers. All models of the 200 series (except the GX model in some countries) have the Kinetic Dynamic Suspension System (KDSS), which allows the 200 series to be more adaptive to the terrain it drives on. The new model also introduced some comfort conveniences like Keyless entry, push-button start engine and 4-zone climate control. Toyota also claims that the new 200 series has a lighter and stronger frame. Features differ by region. In my country they only have the 4.5 Liter Twin-turbo diesel engine, which is a really powerful workhorse and has a respectable gas-mileage. The previous generation Land Cruisers are still one of the best out there. It just so happens that with innovations in the automative industry, they incorporate that to their newer car models. I'm sure it would be the same story with the next generation Land Cruiser.
