I love how everytime Andrea steps on the gas, Zack goes through G-Force as if he is in a fighter jet 😆

I got a 1983 Land Cruiser. Had it since brand new

Thank you guys for showing what it's like ON ROAD, where most folks(like me) will drive 99% of the time. Great review as always!

For car thefts in Toronto (or the GTA) - this is going to be at the TOP of the list. Anyone buying this in Canada better know what they're doing. This vehicle is in huge demand in the middle east and africa.

WOW!! $69, 000 for the base Land Cruiser in Canada😭. Then $90, 000 for the First Edition in CAD. The US not much better $75, 000 🥴 Those are some high prices !! Poor Zach holding on for dear life lol. Another informative and great review 👍👍

HE says " Get the Lexus GX" but the gas mileage isn't even close. GX from reports is getting 16mpg combined, and the Landcruiser is getting around 23-25 hard to beat. But if you're buying these vehicles maybe gas price isn't a concern...

Thanks for pointing out the subtle differences between the different versions.

You guys are awesome. I am with Zack, I like the rectangular headlights.

[Ed_On_The_Pedal]

The instant I saw this I wanted the rectangular, round looks odd to me because I like angular modern design. I am sure there’s a big market for retro round, but I am rectangular modern. However, the GX Overland I would take over it all in a heartbeat, and yes the price of either makes me skip a few….

[cablebrain]

I noticed that Zack didn’t comment on its ride quality and handling, other than mentioning its “truckiness.” I would have liked more descriptive comments on that aspect of the vehicle.

Silly expensive for something that’s not luxurious.

Like the Land Cruiser with option package and the fact you can use regular gas. In the U.S., premium gas is $0.80 more which gives me heartburn.
That meme was spot on!😅

That new Landcruiser is going to look AMAZING in my local grocery store parking lot!!

[Xpvideolover]

I am with Zack. Landcruiser edition. However, GX has some good features in the base trim plus the Lexus badge (if that means anything). Plus GX probably will have better dealership experience. For Landcruiser Fuel economy will be better, I guess!

[slighwentwalking]

I like the round lights but could live
with either. Glad to see that body style
revived....its a good look.

[NOTSoGoodHikers]

Love the rectangular lights.... great review!

[MTBJonnie]

Favorite reviewers right here. Thanks for making it quick, simple and clear to understand!

[oszyyte]

Car thieves in Canada are drooling over this

[steph]

Dang these Toyotas are getting really expensive 🥵. I have 3 newer-ish Toyotas and would love to move into a new generation LC/GX but the prices are just too high to justify..

[Marc-ncyv]

The look on his face and holding on to the oh shit handle on the road was priceless!!

[Jonathan-iofx]

Thanks for the thorough review. Our house likes the rectangular headlights and LC trim with Premium package. And yes over the new 4runner. Good to hear the LC behaves well on road. We also like the look of the LC over the Lexus GX. Is the Lexus GX that much better, and in what areas, than the LC to justify the significant difference in fuel economy?
