This Modified Lexus LX 'Lux Cruiser' Can Tackle the Toughest Off-Road Trails! Dude, I Love My Ride

Love the license plate 👍

I don't know which is more head turning... The lovely rig, the funny license plate or the man's magnificent hair and mustache. Great video. Lol

Legit build! Dude seems extremely knowledgeable too.

Trying to buy one in this insane market, and now TFL is blowing them up arrgggg Edit: still a nice build and cool guy, respect ✊ Edit2: Picked up a 2017 GX 460 later on the day of this comment 😂. Merry Xmas to me

[@frankmagana1408]

In june I was looking to buy one and they hovered to 36-37k. Then in July it spiked to $40k and I was debating on buting the bullet or giving up. Came up on a 14 for $35,500 in the white/tan fully loaded like i wanted, and now im seeing similar ones go for 41-42k. Markets insane

Glad people are actually using these things to go off road! My parents owned a few of the 100 series lx’s; purely just mall crawlers 😂

[@ShowemRight]

Mall crawlers, and I will say Road Chariots. We just bought a 2017 with 15,700 miles on it, I mean driving this vehicle, and knowing its capability, puts a smile on I and wifeys faces thats for sure.

[@ShowemRight]

We have an 02 Sequoia, and I'm thinking about doing some off- road mods. The Sequoia has about 178,000 miles on it, and I tell you know lie, the engine and transmission sounds and performs like (day one) when we drove it off the lot over 20 years ago. I gotta find her a new drivers seat, replace the exhaust, fix the ABS, and find out whats causing that check engine light to stay on. Speaking of the check engine light, that things been on for 10 years or so and she still runs like a beast.

[@schlexpeditionsreviews4703]

I LOVE my lx470! Would definitely consider a 200 series or 570 in the future. But hopefully my 470 with 245k lasts a long long time still for me (just a matter of outliving rust in MI 😭)

[@edwardpeters4700]

Very well done. Smart move dubbing the voice in post to allow use of a better location.

[@pwatom22]

Very helpful video. Thanks very much. I'm a land rover guy but thinking about Lexus replacement. I love the quality of the GX 460 but not a good ride. Sounds like LX 570 might also be an issue. Looks way more useful with less lower front and rear plastic panels.

Very cool build, classy and capable. I'd be interested to see what the curb weight is on it with all that steel.

[@marcusc9026]

Going to take it to the scales soon. Back of napkin estimate is right about 7000 lbs.

[@namha4]

I would bet that the cost of all those mods is about in the same range as the vehicle. Just sick! Just gone to sweet dream! Toyota/Lexus should be looking at this vid and thinking about modding it themselves. I'd buy it OEM pronto.

Awesome build. Love when people actually beat on their Lexus. Only thing missing imo (and maybe I missed it) would be some reservoir suspension.

[@noahi23]

This thing is sweet!!!

[@jordantrudeau-adams4213]

im suprized that vehicles have not come up rollers that fit just under the bumpers to allow the vehicle to roll off the hang ups instead of scraping coming off or going up steep inclines [departure and approach ]

Never heard anyone say the LX has “bad side lines” before

[@Malc664]

Nice rig. Have you thought of trying a softer suspension to improve the ride? Or maybe the tyres solved the problem.

The tires and extra weight really helped the on road ride.

Not quite. FJ is closer to a 4 runner. LX470 is a true land cruiser 100 series.

[@mustafamayahi8577]

Does Lexus LX 570 Offer Diesel Engine 4.5L In USA , I Wanna Know Because In Africa And Australia They Have It , Heavy SUV Like This Must Be Diesel ,

[@damilolaakanni]

Last time I checked the only engine you can have in this is the 5.7 V8 with the same 8 speed automatic transmission from the Land Cruiser.

[@andyham6094]

A vehicle like this must be diesel? Definitly not must. It’s not a heavy super duty truck that has a ton of tow capacity or anything. It’d be cool to have that option for some people who want it for better mpg but the regulations here are much stricter. Theres so many Tacoma’s wranglers 4runners and other off road rigs that have a lot of armour and extra mods on them here in the US that run on gas. The v8 in this Lexus has plenty of power.

[@marcusc9026]

Unfortunately we don't get the diesel variant in the US. That would be cool.

[@buzzpedrotti5401]

How much for the mods? How many hours in the build? Can do it for $20k?

[@marcusc9026]

It really depends on how much of the work you can do yourself. The labor is the most expensive part.
