The factory 20's for the LC are unobtanium, been keeping an eye out but not having much luck.

Even if you don’t keep the truck, it is often worth buying the lease out lately just to immediately resell the vehicle. A friend did the same with her 4Runner, was offered $7K by the original leasing dealer over her buyout and thought she was getting a good deal. I told her to check CarMax, they paid her $14K over…

Allow real factory orders instead of being beholden to a dealer’s decision to give you part of their allocation that may not be what you actually want.

Selling these things is hard because who wants a yacht that’s been seized? It’s kryptonite for buyers.

I think our good doctor friend here might not realize that what he really needs is something of a road-going overlanding setup.

There’s no fine print.

“This is about doing what is right. Mr. Clagett lived up to his end of the deal when he got the hole-in-one and now Morrilton Country Club and Jay Hodge Ford of Morrilton want to crawfish out of the deal,” Clagett’s lawyer, who is suing both businesses, said in a statement.

An 86 with the Camry V6 on a premium gas tune (i.e. the engine in every Lexus XX350) would be a fun car. Still less horsepower than the Supra from almost 30 years ago, but fun.

86 is a Subaru built in a Subaru factory.

They sold ~12-13K of them a year for the last 4-5 years of the run (2010-2014).

The shame is that if Toyota ever did bring the MR2 back, there’s a big chance that they wouldn’t build it themselves.  Considering that the 86 and Supra are both outsourced.

saved you like $50k

You can regularly find off-lease GX’s under 30K miles / $40K. LX’s also depreciate to less than their Land Cruiser cousins after 4-5 years.

Section 3A of the FJCruiserForums buy/sell guide for FJs is “you should probably be looking at a Lexus GX instead”.

It’s “good not great” because Honda never includes a drivetrain upgrade in any of these special editions.

Every time I pass trailhead parking and the lots are full of these, I think “I wonder how many of them have the piston ring issue”.

I wrote the buy/sell guide on FJCruiserForums, and have helped more people find / evaluate FJs for purchase or sale than I can easily count:

The funny part is that it was more work for them to paint the roof white. So the Trail Teams trucks with the color-matched roof was less work for them...and they charged us more.

Akio Toyoda’s big EV press event was kinda lumped into all the other automakers “we’re going to EVs!”, but the characterization of that announcement was (I think) incorrect.
