    Scotty is right - these things do last forever! I have and daily drive a 1994 80’s Series Land Cruiser. It has the 1FZFE 4.5L 6 cylinder. It has 230k miles on it and runs like a top. In the years I’ve had it I’ve only had to replace the heater core. It’s a 27yr old vehicle and EVERYTHING works. (Well, everything except the cigarette lighter plug). I will drive this thing until the engine dies - then will rebuild the engine and drive it until it dies again. It bums me out to hear that Toyota is stopping selling Cruisers in the States. They’re my favorite vehicle ever.

    • @KalOrtPor
      @KalOrtPor 3 года назад

      Lately when manufacturers have brought back beloved nameplates, they were the same in name but not in spirit, or much else. Part of the Land Cruiser's appeal is the 25-year parts life and being a rugged and stable platform that has changed little over the years (also: still made in Japan). I'd be afraid to see too clean-sheet a model, they just don't engineer new products from scratch that way any more. I don't think even Toyota could resist building in some modern design practices geared towards cost-cutting and production efficiencies that shouldn't affect the final product on paper, but like the hydraulic motor mounts that Scotty just talked about, we all know it happens (like hearing "We've changed our classic X recipe, but rest assured they're the same X you know and love!" When PR comes out and says this, hint: They're not).
      The inertia of the Land Cruiser being what it is from all those years ago is a big part of why they're still made so good today. As good as Toyota's other offerings are, they're no Land Cruiser. Hopefully Toyota recognizes this and stays true to the name if they bring it back, but I am not optimistic considering it will still be sold for the rest of the world and they could've kept it going here. I worry that an all-new or US-centric Land Cruiser would no longer be a true offroader, or (shudder) a unibody crossover.

    Hey Scotty loving the videos. I had a 1997 land cruiser that had 330,000 miles on it before I had to let it go. The reason was because my gas strapped that held the gas tank up broke and the only place that sold the gas strapped was in Japan. I needed two gas strapped but they only sent me 1 which they told me it would take time to get the second strap. Well I couldn't wait cause the gas strapped that was still on my cruiser was dragging on the ground while I drove it which was dangerous so I got rid of it in 2017. Man do I miss my land cruiser!

    Perfect timing with your video about this model, Scotty! We have a LC100 with 300k mile 4.2 diesel engine and manual transmission. An excellent off-roader, it always feels like driving a truck. Recently an issue came up in the suspension. It has this oil suspension system that can lower the car or make it higher with a press of a button. But the rear end doesn't raise up to normal ride height anymore and it bounces awfully during driving, it doesn't feel safe at all to drive, especially now in the winter. The shocks do not seem to be leaking and there is no loss of fluid in the reservoir. I'm thinking somewhere there is a valve that stops the fluid from going back and forth that has gone bad. What is your opinion in this matter, what could be wrong? Anything else I should look out for? Thanks

    Scotty, had a question. I have a 02 wrx wagon, the other day I had a rear passenger tire replaced new under warranty due to a unfixable tire slice. My three other tires have 60% tread should I leave as is, replace other three or have the new one shaved down? I only drive a few times a week less then 3/4 miles a trip. I was curious if it would effect my drive drain or anything else since my car is older.
    Thanks again

    I own a 2007 land cruiser and never have I ever gotten close to 20 mpg on the highway. Even going 65 downhill from yellowstone to pocatello idaho thats the best mileage I have ever gotten and it was only 17.1 my highway average is usually between 13-15. And mine has an extra gear in the transmission compared to the one you are talking about. I mostly agree with you that the land cruiser is incredible and I will maintain and keep mine forever I truly love it! Just make sure you are right about the mileage when you are gonna tell thousands of people what it gets. And if the owner really does get 20 mpg please tell me how because I would spend some good money on anything that can help me get that out of my 07.

He loses money on every Land Cruiser due to lack of sales. For every Land Cruiser he sells, he sells 200 Toyota Sequoia’s. It’s cheaper, reliable, powerful, and nearly 99% as capable as the Land Cruiser for what their customers use them for. Not only is he not concerned about losing the Land Cruiser, he’s excited about it.
