Best vehicle I have ever owned.

I have owned this for 157k miles to date, we have driven cross country multiple times and it has given us ZERO issues. Been the most reliable vehicle I have ever owned, and is better in every single way than our previous 2003 Land Cruiser. I love this thing. Only complain is the cheap steering wheel leather that flakes off. I have zero plans to sell our family hauler.

Extreme off-road Capability. Not a highway cruiser

I bought this vehicle for it's reliability and its snow and off-road capability. I wanted a vehicle I could take on fire roads but nothing extreme. The vehicle is so capable that I never had to use low range or its various off-road modes. What I found is that most of my driving was on the freeway to get to skiing and backroads in the Rocky Mountains. The vehicle is not a great highway cruiser constantly shifting up grades, fuel mileage was at best 18 MPG on road trips, the constant body motions (left, right, fore and aft) and road noise. For my mostly highway driving the Land Cruiser was a bit taxing. Decibel readings on various road surfaces with new Michelins was 80-82 versus my new ram truck at 70-72 db. That's a significant difference. In the end, if you're using this vehicle most at lower speeds and don't care about gas mileage this vehicle is one of the best. For me, it was a bit too much.

Beautiful SUV

I love it but wish the console area had more space for personal items! Jack it up and put some nice rims on it! 😉
