I chose the GX Overtrail and never looked back. Last week I added a Westcott roof rack and Westcott lift and fitted it with 35s and 17 inch method bead grip wheels. I also had Westcott remove the runningboards and install the land cruiser rock rails. After 2200 miles I was averaging 19.1 MPG. It’s been a week since the Westcott build and the MPG has dropped to 18.1, and I expect it to go lower. I love the V6 and would never want to give up cargo space for the battery packs. I bought it at the MSRP of $71,474. You can easily spend that much money or more on the LC, so I think the GX is a better truck and a better value. I absolutely love my GX!

For me, as for loving the 4runnner for so many years, this time round, it could be a game changer. I'm so disappointed with the new look. Looks like an older revamped Dodge Durango or the Tacoma.

I am in disbelief they gave the GX550 the V6 but chose to give the LC the 4-cylinder. If the 4-cylinder was so good why not also put it in the GX? Also, the DISHONEST smoke and mirrors Width measurements on the 250 to make people think it basically the same size as a 200 in total crap. I drive a 200 series and dealer put me in a 2024 4RUNNER for a MONTH while mine was in the shop (mechanic had a serious injury and others on vacation had them backed up). There's a HUGE DIFFERENCE in comfort, space-wise, between a LC 200 and a 4RUNNER (the LC 250 has very similar interior dimensions as the 24 4RUNNER).

Great video Jon!! We had a deposit on a first edition land cruiser, then after watching a number of reviews, including the one when you first bought yours, decided to switch to the GX overtrail+ arriving next week. Your fantastic real-world comparison mostly confirms what we listed as pros and cons of GX OT+ vs LC FE: pros: v6 dual-turbo w/ more power, v6 = less engine whine/drone than 4cyl, acoustic glass = quieter at highway speed, e-KDSS more capable offroad and on, more towing capacity, better stock tires, full use of rear storage (more capacity too?) without battery, massaging seats, heated rear seats, additional driving modes, turning light, Mark Levinson sound, longer stock warranty. cons: more expensive, lower mpg, no digital mirror, no 3-zone climate and vents low vs. high, 3" longer without much to show for it, worse approach angle when offroading, hvac touchscreen vs manual controls, rear AC outlet less power, and shorter included service. wash: looks (both look great, so personal preference), range (more mpg on LC, but smaller tank), both take premium fuel, both will likely be extremely reliable despite what "the internet says", resale also likely a wash as a percentage of purchase price, and availability sucks for both right now - look out of market for best deals at MSRP. Either is a great choice, which is why you both like the ones you bought.

Nice review. I was originally going to get the base GX overtrail. But I liked the front of the LC more, gas mileage, and screen / push button ventilation. Also Toyota is a little more incognito than Lexus. Even though these things are getting more looks than a Ferrari currently 🫨

I'd just get a LC 1958 and then either paint or wrap the roof a contrasting color. $82K for the Lexus versus $58K for the LC 1958. Thats the comparison I do. The Lexus is almost 50% more money.

Solid choice

I like both and I want to buy one of them. But I don’t have time to have bearings, engines, etc replaced at around 30K miles. As a Toyota fanboy I’m so disappointed with the the reliability of their newer vehicles.

GX probably premium gas only and that luxury vehicle insurance on top…

Landcruiser is Premium fuel as well...unfortunately.

Specs say the rear legroom in the GX is 36.7 in, but the LC is only 26.7. Is this right?

No. Toyota has messed up the LC specs

21 mpg on a Land Cruiser is incredible 😮 From a FZJ80 owner 😂

Both require premium fuel. Might as well go with the sleeker GX

I like the front of LC and back of GX..

The blue paint w white top and black accents is a winner on the outside although I don’t like the round headlights. Everything else GX wins

Great review and comparison as always. I’m curious with the cool box where do you put your normal stuff that you would have in a center console? Is there enough storage elsewhere?

Honestly not really. The glovebox is ok but not huge.
