YOU NEED A LEXUS LX 470 AS A DAILY DRIVER 

The magic number was 247,020! Our winner guessed 246,683! Thank you to everyone who guessed!

My wife's got one with about 240k miles on it, and I liked it so much that I have a 100-series LC with 252k on it. Mine is built. Hers is closer to OEM but we added a bumper. Absolute tanks.

Those 4.7s last forever!

Dude, beautiful. Previous owner had some good taste

Great truck, theres a few weak links specifically the heater core tees and radiator degrading due to time. Otherwise pretty buletproof motor! Looks clean. Im planning on putting a 2 inch lift and 33 inch tires on mine. Good vid

At 9 min you mention you wish it had cup holders in the arm rest. However it should be in the center console near the floor. It’s a pullout rectangle and that’s where the cup holders are for the back seats are.

You should look into attending Cruisers On The Rocks 4 coming in autumn, it’s held at Windrock ORP would love to see that clean SOB in person. 🤙🏾

I love how much you love your old truck

Have had my 05 LX for almost a year and it nice. Figure out how to properly use the 4WD, get off the pavement, and test out the CDL and 4L just to make sure it is working properly. I had to change a switch on the CDL because it would not properly unlock and the A-TRAC was not kicking in. Do keep in mind they are old and some things will start to fail of just need to be replaced. My alternator failed on me and that was not cheap. I did swap out some of the door weather stripping because they would cause so much noise. Parts are expensive so just be aware of that. But I do like it and when my daily got totaled recently the LX is now my main ride.

Love this video! Great purchase. Welcome to the LX fam! So for 100 series. Only the very early model land cruisers had a rear locker with the center locker. 98-07 LX470s never got a locker option I believe. The 80 series land cruisers were the ones that you could get “triple locked.” A center locker really isn’t anything crazy, it just puts it in true 4hi as opposed to being in awd. You can also buy the “part time kit” from cruiser outfitters which allows you to have manual hubs and make the truck 2wd (rwd) which can help with fuel economy and be useful on the trails. Definitely a solid find dude. Stoked to see the progress on this

My 06 LX just crossed 245k. With gas being as expensive as it is, I cannot daily it but I do go out to the mountains up 4x4 trails a fair amount with it. My personal advice: the load leveling hydraulic height control is much better than what you can replace it with. It’s the best of both worlds. Good highway performance and 2” lift when needed (2.5” if t case is in low range). You are going to want to follow YotaMDs video on doing a AHC health check. I got replacement accumulators from Japan for much cheaper than you can get in the US. Now it rides like new again. The ride quality on the AHC system is hard to beat for something that size. Maybe a Range Rover? By the way mine has grey interior too. I love it. Also - setting the t case in low automatically locks the center differential and turns off VSC. Since yours is a non vvti, it might not sound great but mine when the vtec kicks in yo - it sounds gnarly. Also watch out for heater t leaks and every 90k miles do the timing belt, pulleys, tensioners, water pump, drive belt and bobs your uncle, the engine will far outlast the body. Oh and there are cup holders in the back at the rear of the center console. None of the 98-07 100 series were triple locked. The 98/99 models had optional rear diff locker but it was all replaced by A trac which is pretty good.

200,001 miles awesome daily man i hope it will be a good daily for you. As always have fun

You could stick those fogs in the slits in the bumper right above em, why not?

236,584 🙌🏼 Nice daily man 💪🏼

I think a gen1 f150 Raptor would be a good candidate for DD off-roader as well

Your rear cup holders are in the center console

I have lx470 as my daily driver but sometimes I get only 8mpg in the city , the max I get on highway is 16mpg.

Where did you find this Lexus in such nice condition?!?! It is in great shape; my guess is that it spent most of the time down South! I am jealous.

DT headers make these 4.7 Toyotas sound amazing
