I purchased this vehicle in Chicago from a dealer who had it for sale for about 30 mins. When i purchased it it had a CEL for emissions. I drove it across country to SoCal where construction of this project would take place.
- The front bumper is 1.75" .120 wall tubing and houses a smittybuilt 8K winch, the bumper is bolted to the frame so it can be removed for service.
- There are 11 forward facing lights on the LX
- the suspension was done in house and has a 3.5" OME lift (medium spring rate) with OME shocks (it rides beautifully)
- The rear bumper with dual swing-a-ways house the full size spare, hi-lift and the kolpin fuel cans and maxtrax
- there are two LED rear facing lights that go on in reverse and have a bypass switch to aid on setting up camp or trailside repairs
- there is a $900 rearview mirror with backup camera built into it. the camera is mounted to aid in backing up and hitching a trailer alone.
- the rear bumper has an additional pair of LED stop/turn/tail lights because the tire partially obscures the factory tail lights.
- the fuel carrier has a "euro" light in it, when the lights are turned on the red light stays on at all times (it is very bright)
- The LX has a set of bestop power boards which we custom fabricated mounts for so when a door is opened full length steps drop down to aid in entry
- the quad headlights have been converted to HID
- PHH done 1K miles ago
- I replaced the factory head unit so you can listen to a cd or any USB input device
- the driver seat leather is so-so
- the rest of the leather is in great shape
- the third row seats look BRAND NEW
- i installed a 1,000 wat inverter under the drivers seat
- the custom made roof basket can carry over 1,000 lbs. it is built from .095 tubing and fully welded (it is painted not powder coated) it needs a touch up
- all lights are on relays
- the 33" ProComp AT's are new and have roughly 3K miles on them. the wheels are factory FJ Cruiser and have been painted with outdoor furniture texture paint to match the factory paint (the lower plastic on the vehicle has also been painted with it). it has been on wheels and vehicle for 3 years, it looks great but could use a touchup.
- all decals can be removed
- i had the windows tinted
- there is a cobra all in one CB radio
- there are husky liner floor mats in the front and rear not the very rear.
- there is damage to the carpet in the very rear, it looks like someone transported a battery and acid got on the carpet.
- the paint is great shape for its age and while there are no dents there are various scratches indicative of a 16 year old off road SUV
- It has a safari snorkel and a K&N filter in the housing
- it has a scangauge that monitors fuel mileage, temps and gives an accurate speed
- on the freeway at 70MPH it gets 13-17MPG
- it has been on every trail in SoCal rated 5 or harder and does it with ease (pulling a trailer)
- I will miss this vehicle

2018 Lexus RX 450hL hybrid will start just over $50,000
Wed, Feb 7 2018Lexus has announced pricing on its 2018 RX 450hL, saying that its new three-row, all-wheel-drive hybrid crossover will carry a starting MSRP just $1,550 higher than the non-hybrid AWD RX 350L when it goes on sale starting in April. The RX 450hL will start at $51,615, positioning it right in-between luxury crossover competitors like the Mercedes-Benz GLE 350 and Infiniti QX60. The Luxury package, which adds features like semi-aniline trimmed seats, interior LED ambient lighting, laser-cut wood trim and 20-inch machine-finished alloy wheels, bumps the price up to $55,550. Prices include a $995 delivery, processing and handling fee. Lexus says the 450hL will get new features like second-row captain's chairs, leather-trimmed seats and complimentary Lexus Inform Safety Connect and Service Connect membership for the first 10 years of ownership. Standard safety features include a pre-collision system with pedestrian detection, lane-keep assistance, intelligent high beam headlights and all-speed dynamic radar cruise control. The RX 450hL combines a 3.5-liter V6 engine with two high-torque electric drive motor-generators to produce 308 in combined horsepower, with an EV mode allowing it to run on pure electric power at lower speeds for short periods. Lexus hasn't yet released fuel-economy figures for the hybrid, but the conventional RX 450h is rated at a combined 30 mpg by fueleconomy.gov. Lexus has added 4.3 inches to the rear body length of the 450hL and added more room for third-row occupants by incorporating a steeper tailgate. We've previously covered the introduction of the three-row RX 450hL and the 2018 RX 350L, which is powered by a 290-hp 3.5-liter V6 and is available in both front- and all-wheel-drive. The latter starts at $48,665 and goes up to $55,080. The RX line has been Lexus' best-selling model, with sales of 108,307 units in 2017.Related Video:
Lexus LF-1 Limitless looks like a curvy crossover concept
Tue, Dec 5 2017Lexus released a teaser for a new concept that will make its debut at the 2018 Detroit Auto Show, and it has quite the name. The company calls it the LF-1 Limitless, a name that wouldn't sound out of place on a battleship. According to Lexus, the name was chosen because this concept "is a flagship crossover that redefines the boundaries of luxury." Frankly, the boundaries that make up the high-dollar crossover segment are definitely well-tread by now. What we can tell is that the concept's heavily raked D-pillar suggests it will have a coupe-inspired look similar to the BMW X6 and Mercedes-Benz GLC Coupe. The bodywork features many curvy lines and exaggerated wheel arches. It will be interesting if this LF-1 has flagship size to go with its flagship description, which would put it in competition with the upcoming Audi Q8. This concept is well-worth keeping an eye on, since Lexus has a history of previewing future production models with the LF moniker. Examples include 2009's LF-Ch that became the CT 200h, 2012's LF-LC coupe that became the LC 500, 2013's LF-NX that became the Lexus NX crossover, and 2015's LF-FC that became the new LS sedan. Not everything makes it to production, such as the LF-SA mini car, and the LF-C2 that suggested an RC convertible. But there's a strong enough history of production cars coming from LF concepts that this LF-1 could be the preview of a new production model. Related Video:
This one-off Lexus RC F takes a page out of an NBA playbook
Sat, Apr 2 2016We talk about one automaker taking a page out of another's playbook – following a lead to keep up with the competition. But this one-of-a-kind Lexus actually does take a page out of a playbook. Specifically that of the Los Angeles Clippers. The unique Lexus RC F coupe features a livery inspired by the team colors and emblazoned in tone-on-tone Xs and squiggles that look like strategic doodles from the coach's notebook. The stock horn has been replaced by a shot buzzer, the dashboard clock with a game timer, basketball-patterned speaker grilles, and Clippers logos throughout. The navigation system is voiced by the team's coach Doc Rivers, and there's a makeshift locker room in the trunk packed with memorabilia. As far as special editions go, this one's actually pretty convincing. Of course it doesn't hurt to pack a 5.0-liter V8 engine good for 467 horsepower under the hood. The vehicle was created to raise funds for the Clippers Foundation, a charity associated with the basketball team that works with children in the Los Angeles area. For $100, fans can buy raffle tickets for the chance to take it home. Toyota has long been a sponsor of the team, briefly suspending its involvement in the wake of then-owner Donald Sterling's racist remarks a couple of years ago. Related Video:
