Everything I Love About My 100 Series Toyota Land Cruiser

I'll be selling my 1999 100 Series Toyota Land Cruiser soon, so I wanted to make this video highlighting some of the things I love most about it. The 100 Series Land Cruiser, sold from 1998 through 2007, came with a lot of unique features that you won't find in the 80 Series that preceded it, or the 200 Series generation that followed. In the video, I say I'm going to highlight 5 things, but I actually end up highlighting 6, and while editing, I thought of another handful of things I should've mentioned, but didn't. The 100 Series Toyota Land Cruiser is that cool.

New owner of a 2007 LC. I just learned like 10 things I never knew. Now I'm even more excited about my rig. Thank you!

Nice job! I’ve owned a 40, 62, 80, and 200. Just picked up an ‘06 100. I have a couple of things to fix, but she’s going to be a great one! Thanks for pointing out your favorite features. 👍

I love my 99 LC too! Great idea on using the tailgate as a step to access to roof.

The third row AC system also supplies the second row head liner vents, They’re just kind of small.

Old video but appreciated. Sold an FJ and buying a 100 series this week.

6:24 i would not fall asleep in the wilderness with your feet hanging out your rear hatch tailgate... id be paranoid that a sasquatch would see that as a sign that i wanna be taken lol. Awesome video btw. Very informative. Im currently looking at a 99 LC with 215k miles for $2700 and yes the frmae is great for a maine vehicle. Runs great drives great.. was listed just yesterday.

Legendary build quality. Thanks for the video

Thanks for the pro tips, especially the tailgate step :) The LC 100 and 105 are also very popular here in South Africa. Such comfortable beasts.

At a previous job (rental vehicles) we had the 105 series Land Cruiser base camper model. Apparently the model had the solid front axel unlike the 100, though looked identical. Bench front seat, vinyl upholstery and antique steel wheels. They sold quickly at disposal time.

Nice video: thank you.
Just thought I would mention that the rear a/c controls are located where they are (in the roof, above the backrest of the second row seats) so that they can be operated from both the second and third row seats.

[greydog]

the long storage compartment in the rear right where the floppy elastic is, should hold a tool kit and a extendable pole to wind down the spare wheel from under the car

Have to say it fits beautifully in your driveway. You should see these things in the UK, they look comically large

[ladweeb]

Thanks for the tailgate step tip! I never thought to use it for that. I have a 2006 LC.

I bought my 2002 new - now have 298, 700 miles on it and it is ROCK SOLID. Also never replaced my rear tailgate shocks. This is a vehicle I would get in and go across country with 5 minutes notice and KNOW that I'll make it without a breakdown.

The rear ceiling vents only blow AC. Heat only comes from the lower 2nd row console vents controlled from the front. But it really doesn't need the rear heat as it heats up pretty quick inside. But the AC comes from both 2nd and 3rd row ceiling vents controlled front or rear. It is much appreciated by passengers as it takes much longer to cool down, especially the third row if you use it.

Used to see this all the time parked by the capitol. The TRD sticker always caught my eye. Nice rig for sure. Noticed it had been missing for a while. Hopefully I’ll get to see the new one soon.

[noctilucent]

This is why I'm afraid of buying a LC it means I'd probably sell my beloved 4runner

Hey brother you are incorrect about the overhead a/c and heat control. It actually works the vents in 2nd and 3rd row. The placement is strange and would lead you to think it was only for the 3rd row.
