Here's Why This Toyota Land Cruiser Costs $150,000! 

Excellent presentation, you leveled up.

Expensive but at least it’s not just another dealership bolting on cosmetic accessories and calling it an overland build.

*Range Rover* has left the chat.

That's nearly classed as stock in Australia 🤣

I’ll take this baby! Over Tom Brady's 300,000$ Escalade ....any day

Proud owner of 2008 LC2008, yes expensive when I bought it new in 2008 but really happy it still drive like new even with 450K miles 👌👌

Easily one of the best vehicles that's been on the channel.

Christo was great to work with back in '12 when I built my 80 series Lexus. Slee knows what works off-road.

We get the twin turbo 4.5L V8 Diesel in Australia

Impressive attention to detail, what a rig.

I have a 2009, looks like the one you're showing. At 11 years old, it drives like the first day I got it. I added a 180 L that 50 US gal. Aux tank . It needed it. ARB front and rear lockers. It goes every were out of the city with me for my work in renewable energy in East Africa.

I admit that I'm a Datsun and Toyota fanboy but there is no way I would ever buy a pre-customized vehicle, especially one with a price tag of $150,000. Half the fun is customizing it myself. That Land Cruiser looks heavy as Hell.

I'd like to buy this from you.. Best I can do is $5000 and I'm really taking all of the risk here. -Rick

Awesome video, great insights and presentation, keep them coming 🙂

Cant go wrong with the land cruiser. It's a legend, worth every penny!!! Bula from the Fiji Islands🇫🇯🍺🍺🍺🍺

My new dream rig!! WOW

That's a legit Overlander right there. 🇺🇸

These things are units, super common here in Australia. The twin turbo V8 diesels go so well.

I just drove my 2021 Land Cruiser Heritage Edition off the lot 2 days ago. In less than 24 hours (yesterday) I put new tires on it and I ordered the rock sliders today. I'm not at $146,000 yet; I'm going to wait at least a year before I do the big stuff. They only did black and white for 2020 but they added silver and Magnetic Gray Metallic for 2021. Mine is Magnetic Grey Matallic. I heard they only made 100 in my color. They also added the option for a third row in 2021 (which is standard on the base model; with a third row delete being standard on the 2020 Heritage Edition). Mine has the third row. Assuming it's a 50/50 split on two or three rows in my color, mine is one of 50 in the country.

Does it have a massive dent in the front left quarter panel along the wheel arch, or is that just something odd about the reflection? @10:08

Did they have to do anything to the KDSS system when installing new shocks?

Nice work guys as usual!!

Thanks for all the great content

That rig will look great driving to the mall.

cool truck however I would probably spend 150K elsewhere

Great job, Tommy! I'd love to have one of these. I think the only thing I'd have them change is put some BFG's on instead. I've just never had a puncture on any set of them I've ever had. This is a beautiful Land Cruiser.

Top video man! This is a profissonal documentary level! by the way what is the sound track name?

Never thought this would be my dream car

Interesting. Thanks TFL for showing your viewers these modification businesses. They do excellent work. And are honest. At points I was going to say.. but... however, he confessed about the quality and why they changed over some things. Legit honesty I can respect. Those sliders for example I thought.. nice but not true rock rail sliders. And he admitted that someone probably would wind up bending them. :)

wow this is awesome. thank you!

The common theme of the Land Cruiser is it price most of can’t afford it 😮😮 one of my dream cars!!!

I had a problem with my Toyota and took it to Christo when he was in some small shop with little room in it. They looked at my truck for over an hr and I mean they looked at everything. They even had it up on the lift and took some things apart and put back together. They couldn’t find anything wrong with it. I wasn’t really sure there was something wrong with either but felt it wasn’t right. So when I asked for the bill Christo said No Charge! I was Stunned and asked why. He said I didn’t fix anything so no charge. When I left that shop I felt guilty like I had stolen from him. Who does that?That truck is still on the road with nothing wrong with it. I can see why he’s gotten as big as they have. Best service ever.

About time you got Cristo Slee on here. Great bunch of guys, great work, great products, and great insight. Their shop was under construction last I was there. Good to see what it looks like now. I'd never be in the market for a 200. But if I were, I'd certainly trust one built by Slee Offroad.

Hold the phone. For that price I was expecting either a Magnuson supercharger or a harrop performance supercharger under the hood. And no king or icon suspension either????That is some crazy money for that SUV!

30 year mortgage for a .... Toyota.

Beautiful, definitely out of my league!

I purchased the tfl pro cruiser in Jan and I’m planning to bring it to slee to get the bp51s raised so I can run 275-75s instead of the 275 70s I have now got

What are you guys doing in Hoosierland? (Displaced Hoosier in CO) :)

here in indiana, we have a ed martin toyota dealership ( the same name ) and there is a land cruiser painted in black that looks identical to that!

My dad has a 99 Land cruiser that was bought for a family vehicle. I was only like 11 years old when my parents bought it. Originally my moms. It’s been the best vehicle they could’ve ever hoped for. It’s knocking on 500,000 miles and I wish my dad would sell it to me. When I turned 16 I tired to talk them into it but I ended up with a Ford Ranger. Looking back I wish I would’ve pushed harder 😂 even old land cruisers are the bomb 💣

You mentioned Namibia!!.. Funny considering that this year, my husband and I are doing a cross country overland expedition across Namibia to Botswana... We will have the choice from several great Toyota's to choose from that are all modded for the journey, from Land Cruisers to Hilux etc.. My vote was a 200 Series!

What I see is a business owner having a hard time selling a $150k rig so he pays a RU-vid channel to advertise for him.

Awesome vid and truck but I think that is way overpriced! For full skid plates, lift, new wheels and tires, suspension, roof rack, storage, and front and rear bumpers... shouldn’t cost anymore than 15,000-20,000. I don’t see how all this adds 50k to the price tag😬

Why so amazed? In my country the base price for that model is 150k and there's a lot of them, even the Lexus LX570... And we got the V8 diesel engine for both of them.

Not the biggest Toyota fan, but the way the Slee company designed those bumpers , they did a hell of a job ..👍

What’s the name of the killer track at the beginning of the video?

Anybody know who makes the hatch lights @ 6:15 ? I can't find them on Slee's site.

Anyone know what kinda wheels that thing is sitting on?

This is a hot truck. Do you have any videos on the Jeep commander 5.7 L?

What's the towing capacity on these T.L.C. ?

I cant think on any thing better to role with my family in .. Land Cruiser is a statement Built almost bullet proof

Awesome rig!

I'm late to seeing this, but oh man... this is glorious.

Are they pretty firm on pricing or is there some wiggle room ?? 😜

Try to sell it back to them or any Dealer, their offer will exclude all Mods lol 🤣,

Thanks! I always wondered what their builds cost. If you think this SUV is built to last at least twice as long (often times more) as a regular car/SUV, then the base MSRP isn’t so bad in my opinion.

Kool tks, wish they made extra tank for a tundra...Tks Tommy

Man what a rig. I fell in love again ! Let's not let my wife find out lol

6:14 anyone know who makes these LED lights?

MUCH LOVE FOR THE LAND CRUISERS.

Please,what's the capacity of the fuel tank?

Hi Tommy 🙂. Hopefully the all new Mercedes GLS 550 will be on TFL soon.

Very cool truck and Iove the Slee stuff. The price is the same as a stock 200 from Toyota here i Norway :-( All the best :-)

Take my money! Here! Lol Gosh that rig is beautifully built and thought through.

Needs an ARB winch bar!

In Cambodia this series around 170,000 US$

My dream SUV

What's the name of that song at the beginning?

These Landcruisers are as common as a dead 'roo on the side of a country road in Australia. Maybe the US needs the range we have in Australia. Four trim levels starting with what I call the "poverty pack". Retails for $59k US, and commonly used by police and other government departments as well as companies that need vehicles for the outback. Unlike the US model, ours have a diesel engine.

The beloved TLC 😍

That 200 looks great, and I love Slee Offroad but that “Sleebuilt” emblem is too much. Toyota built this. In Japan. Slee bolted some stuff onto it. Also, you don’t run an OME lift for that kind of money. Should be Icon, King or another premium suspension setup.

*REPO* business is one business that has no end in sight.

And it is a show car. With all that equipment, it will barely or NEVER see dirt. Stay beautiful, Garage Queen!

This still doesn't explain the $150K price tag. $60,000 in extras?!

The 1 kilometer dirt road ride to the cabin I go too won’t stand a chance.

Many people dislike the price for a Toyota but it's a proven SUB around the world. It's not a luxury SUV like a range but I've known many people who have reliability issues with those. I live in London in the UK and there are so many European car brands everywhere but a Land Cruiser would be my choice if I was not in a city and required such a vehicle.

My 80 series cost 10k and could out perform that offroad . That leaves me with 140k for holidays . Whoooot !

Wew!!! .this car is freaking huge..👏👏👏

@TFLoffroad can we do a “Where is it Now” in 2 years? :)

150k Aud maybe, not USD. Great truck, main thing it's missing is a GVM upgrade. That will be right on it's limit with a passenger and full tank of fuel. No towing no nothing

best Toyota

That is LEGIT !!!

You guys missed out big time In Australia we get the 4.5 litre twin turbo diesel Approx 200 kw and heaps of torque which is upgradable heaps in the after market domain And they sound GREAT And use heaps less fuel than the big gas 5.7 Awesome vehicle

Update it is now $175,000. Wonder where the extra $25,000 in parts are. When there isn’t $50,000 worth of parts on it at the $150,000 price.

Maybe sixty years ago a brand new FJ-40 Land Cruiser cost about $3,000, add fractional banking and a large root beer has gone from five cents to two dollars in the same time?

will forever be mad at Toyota for turning the legendary landcruiser into a beverly hills cruiser

Great rig but if I had to guess the MPG'S on a truck with all that extra weight I would say you'd be lucky to get 12 mpg on the highway and 8 or 9 around town. But if you can afford the sticker price it doesn't really matter.

these setups are ridiculously expensive and meant for rich old people that are not gonna use it to half its intended use, they're selling a dream, an idea for the bohemian side in all of us, only this dream will cost you a house... it just looks good, its a status, nothing else lol

Great!... but no snorkel?!?!

I live in Africa where these are quite common. And yes they do rock crawl them. They are incredible vehicles.

Clearly Slee is a talented designer and fabricator. I wonder how much of that cruiser's payload remains after all the weight added. At a certain point, braking performance will be affected.

What a clean machine. 😍

Omg where is the other video about the Gladiator part 2 of the overland build ? It’s driving me nuts why didn’t you make it yet you had all the parts and it was already in process at the dealership ???

Good job

Whats better this LC200 or the MB G550?

I need this to go to the mall !

Somehow I get the feeling that the only off-road this vehicle will experience is the mall parking lot.

Cool rear bumper

"extremely gas hogs" in Scotty Kilmer's voice.

What's the intro song?
