Love how you park like a baby of the family

Nice video. I'd love to take the family on an overland adventure in my 2001 100 series. Thanks for the gear reviews and descriptions.

Awesome looks just like my set up with the cooler and portable battery with solar panel. 😃. I have a lx470 and do the exact same thing as you. Very cool.

I would recommend running a 10AWG wire to the back charger to reduce voltage drop. I also added a Anderson plug next to the DC plug to charge my DIY solar generator.

I regret having sold our 1999 LC 100 series six years. Now after watching your video, I want another newer LC 100. By the way, after doing the math on your road trip gasoline cost/mpg, ($700.00/4, 000 miles = 17.5 mpg) 17.5 mpg is not bad at all for a 6, 000 lbs on a lifted suv, with all-terrain, off-roady tires, loaded down with passengers and cargo and traveling through mountainous roads. Thank you for sharing your info and video!

Yota cruiser is always never fail to amaze offroad and touring world... Btw, awesome rig U have broo...

[Randomgearhead]

If ur switching to synthetic oil check ur Dip stick after every 1k miles and make sure it don't start burning it. Nice looking rig. We are looking for a sequoia for same kinda thing.

So much good info in this video as with the rest of yours. a 2004 LC is my dream OL build. Perfect year for the perfect rig. You're doing it right. Kids here too.

Nice video.
Yeah Diesel is maybe cheaper on the trip. But in the maintenance is the Benzin in the long therm cheaper

Just bought a 2000 100 series in very good condition 263k mi runs amazing, an i had many 4x4s a 87 samurai 05 dodge ram 90chevy 89dakota 08 G-Cherokee an recent a 09 wrangler, an by far for the age im at now this landcruiser is the best 4x4 ive owned took it to the beach following week an did perfect for its size an what i needed it to do. Even out did my friends 24'4runner in my opinion, lol sure did in price comparsion thats for sure 😂

Look at the Rocky Road bolt on sliders. Don't require welding. Do a good job installing them, get them tight and in the right spot and they won't make any noise when you get off road. Really good powder coat finish. You will need two people to install them and a lift makes it a lot easier. They have one set with a 45 and one pair that are flat. I put them on my 98 and they worked out really well.

White knuckle off road for sliders recommendation

Hello my friend
7:37 I own a 2003 Land Cruiser GXR. It has an internal refrigerator that is located in the middle next to the driver.
It is enough for hunting trips
Easy and reliable, I recommend it if it is not available in your model

Hi Great video Pickett. Your ideas are very similar to mine but I am still planning. I see in your profile pic the LC is towing a good size trailer. How does the LC do towing? How does the engine do in the inclines with the trailer?

[greysonbarefoot]

Check out white knuckle off-road sliders

[journeyneverends_]

I like how your LC looks!
Good old 4x4 style!

Is yours diesel?

[edwinalexander]

Why you didnt buy the one with the 1HDT FTE 4.2 L turbo diesel engine?

[noctilucent]

I recently purchased a 2006 100 Series Land Cruiser with 159k miles, and your video made me feel much more confident about my decision. Have you had to replace the heater T's or encountered any issues with the master brake assembly? Also, is this your daily driver? Thanks again for the great content!

Sliders are White Castle in my opinion!
