The reason they didn't update the 4runner is because they can keep selling it as an old V6 and 4runner diehards love to overpay for old technology because "simpler tech easier to fix", so why not keep selling it, while bring in a "Landcruiser" to satisfy people who want new tech.

I like the base Cruiser. You get the platform, and the rear locker, all the off road goodies and actual buttons inside for $55k. If you want the rear locker in the GX you have to go for the Overtrail which will be around $75k. I don’t think the V6 and the premium interior is worth $20k to me. Would I rather have the V6? Sure. But not for that premium. Plus I like having physical buttons, I really dig those fabric seats, and the more heritage look of the 1958 model. And honestly, I don’t tow, or really have any need for all that extra power. It’s just nice to have, and less complicated than the hybrid system. That being said Toyota is the best in the biz when it comes to hybrid tech so prolly a nonissue. Great vid as always. For GX price I’d get a Grenadier.

It should be noted that there's no direct correlation between the last V8 LC200 and this LC250 called LC Prado in other markets. The LX600 and the d/c for US LC300 share the same platform and are the direct successors. This new LC is not going to get the turbo 6 because it's already in the GX to justify the additional premium. The same turbo 4 will also be in the next 4-Runner, which will undercut the LC in price and be more off road focused (perhaps more TRD influence).

Yes, the top-of-the-line over trail is in the mid 70s, but you can buy the base over trail, add a few options in you’re at $70,900. For that value, and what it offers, both liability, resale, and capability, it certainly gives the defender a real challenge. If you look throughout the world, these products are going to do very well and have a fantastic reputation.

Defender is absolutely better looking, but their quality is still no where near as bulletproof as Toyota. Know two people with Defenders and each have had minor problems (unstable infotainment, A/C compressor) within first year of ownership.

For me, it would come down to the sound system. If the Land Cruiser gets a JBL system and it's really satisfying, that would be the way I'd prefer to go due to lower cost of ownership. The Mark Levinson system available in the GX I am sure is on another level, but that requires an additional 20k in spending to even option the sound system. Not to mention, the GX most likely requires premium fuel and is at 17 MPG combined, where as the LC should take 87, at, allegedly, 27 MPG combined - that saves over $1,600 in fuel over 15,000 miles/year

LWB 250-Series would have 8 seats (seven if there are two Captain's Chairs in the 2nd row) while the GX550L would have 7 (6 if there are two Captain's Chairs in the middle row). Might they accommodate to Americans and others who missed out on the old 3-row Land Cruiser? We'll see.

They both look good, but I like the looks of the Lexus just a bit more. And the V6 is the icing on the cake. Downside is I need a small mortgage for it.
