[@toyotaoforlando]

Great video! the details really showcase how nice these cars are!

[@OtzleeExplains]

Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you!!

[@jancker06]

Looks awesome! That’s the tire and wheel setup I would go with too.

[@OtzleeExplains]

Right on!

[@321thach]

That wheel and tires look great can’t wait to see how it look after you lifted. My ideal mods is this same TRD wheel or the Volk Racing TE37 large PCD or TE37XT with a 2inch front lift and a 1inch rear lift. I just want a better stance and clearance

[@OceansideCreations]

Those wheels are perfect! Congratulations

[@OtzleeExplains]

Glad you like them!

[@Mahdah1955]

Youre tires just perfect , I really like it

[@OtzleeExplains]

Thank you! We love it too. Just missing a lift to really set it

[@rupertgumban9251]

Congratulations! Can wait for the mods,3” lift big tires, steel bumpers,all the overlanding gears

[@OtzleeExplains]

You and me both! Thanks for watching

[@alfagtv1098]

My FE is stuck in the big QC hold. Crickets from Toyota. Does anyone have any updated information on when these vehicles will be released.

[@NOTSoGoodHikers]

Great comprehensive video. Those 35s look like they're gonna rub a little off-road. Keep us updated on this and another video would be nice.

[@OtzleeExplains]

Thanks! Will do! I'm sure a lift will be done in the near future.

[@Ttya-bm4gk]

By the way it looks so nice . Love that cruiser and those rims are tough

[@OtzleeExplains]

Thank you! Appreciate you checking out the video.

[@JeffChangExperience]

Legg Lake. Nice! Let me know if you have room for another 4runner if you hit a local trail this month. Haven't been in the dirt for a while.

[@OtzleeExplains]

Sounds good. Got an ig?

[@JeffChangExperience]

@@OtzleeExplains @thejeffchangexperience

[@Ttya-bm4gk]

Huge difference in power between the 5th gen inverter 400 watts compared to 2400 watts for the hybrid landcruiser . U can power things that take more power than 400 watts . Like power tools and cooking stoves ect . One question I have is can the AC be ran with the gas engine off for a period of time ? If so when hybrid battery gets low does it automatic start the gas engine when running ac? These are good traits for anyone camping , overlanding ect

[@markquach4124]

Ac won’t be cold with engine off, it’ll kick the engine on when the battery gets low.

[@rationalmoderate]

Great video! I am undecided between the 2025 4runner and a Land Cruiser. I was surprised it required premium fuel, my wife's 2024 Crown Platinum with the hybrid max does not. Keep us updated on the lift, the way this LC looks would be exactly what I would love to own.

[@OtzleeExplains]

Yeah same here, didn’t expect the premium. You’ll have some time to decide before the new runner hits the dealers. Stay tuned for future videos as well as the lift!

[@studio3686]

Those TRD rims look perfect... what is the offset?

[@markquach4124]

+47

[@ktm250xcw]

D@mn, that is gorgeous. Honestly, that’s what the new Runner should have looked like. The Runner looks too busy for me.

[@OtzleeExplains]

Thank you!🙏

[@4runner510]

I like the wheels and tires, but I would have stuck with the original tire size for better clearance when off-road

[@OtzleeExplains]

Lift coming soon! Appreciate your outloook

[@009Raines]

Love that front build of the Land Cruiser it definitely reminds me of the FJ cruiser but I agree those sliders or the rock rails are badly designed, imo they look dangerously easy to slide your shoes off and fall. Other than that it looks like Toyota expanded their compartments features with more storage options for the standard price of $60K

[@OtzleeExplains]

Totally agree! Nice sliders incoming soon! Just waiting on some brands to release them.

[@321thach]

Do you know what offset is that Tundra wheel?

[@OtzleeExplains]

+47

[@dCoosh]

"Amber fog lights, good for those conditions when you need the amber" ... Thanks genius.

[@OtzleeExplains]

I’m sure you can figure it out. You’re welcome g

[@Maxime-ho9iv]

Nice. But you can’t have all those features on the 1958 if you don’t want or miss the first edition, right? I feel like those circular headlights are the best but if you’re stuck with base base model that’s a bit of a shame.

[@Maxime-ho9iv]

Also: I want to see this offroad.

[@OtzleeExplains]

As of now yes those extra nice features are only available on the first edition. We'll see if they roll out different lines in the future.

[@OtzleeExplains]

Yes, we'll be taking it out on an offroading trip mid August so stay tuned to see how it performs.

[@theeconomist100]

whats the mpg

[@OtzleeExplains]

The 2024 Toyota Land Cruiser First Edition has an estimated fuel economy of 22 miles per gallon (mpg) in the city, 25 mpg on the highway, and 23 mpg combined.

[@theeconomist100]

@@OtzleeExplains thanks

[@josephchiarello11]

Good luck with that 4 banger turbo - you do know that truck has the same engine as the new taco - I predict a total main bearing/engine fail -

[@markquach4124]

The current recall are for tundras, sequoias, and lx600s. They’re 6 banger, not the same engine bud.

[@OtzleeExplains]

Its the tundra with the 6 bangers that are having the engine issues with the bad machining of the engines. Haven't heard anything but good things about the tacos so far.

[@ofwoodsandwords4424]

Your wrong, 6k towing not 8k

[@OtzleeExplains]

Yes I stated in my precious comment that I was wrong about the tow. Thanks for pointing it out

[@marvinjacobs2955]

Tire size is barely ok for a Mall Crawler

[@OtzleeExplains]

Yes for now until we lift it. Stay tuned, we barely filled up the first tank.

[@jarrettmitchell]

Towing capacity is 6,000 lbs.

[@OtzleeExplains]

You are right, my notes were incorrect. Thanks for catching that Jarrett!

[@baoly9550]

Mall Crawler testing an off-road SuV. LoL

[@OtzleeExplains]

Its a brand new rig, haven't had a chance to take it out of the mall yet. First fill up even. Stay tuned for that video tho.

[@baoly9550]

@@OtzleeExplains , no offense bro I’m just messing with you. Great looking LC

[@kevinchambers4219]

Premium gas only. I'm out.😢

[@OtzleeExplains]

Premium but it still has overall better mpg than my 4Runner that takes 87

[@KT-ty3uh]

Great vehicle but at $76K it’s a rip off.

[@OtzleeExplains]

Lots of vehicles are pricey these days. You got the Cybertruck at 90-100k, sequoias at 85+, unfortunately it’s the way the first edition is priced.

[@americapride]

@@OtzleeExplainswhat the lowest price we can get this 1st edition in South Cal ? How much did dealer mark price up over $ 76K? Would you share…I am seriously finding one in OC

[@woodledoodle]

@@americapride first edition here in georgia is currently 95k out the door. they added a 10k of "features" which was paint protection and ceramic coating

[@paperthinpizza]

Not a fan of unnecessary modifications. This First Edition Land Cruiser came stock with 265/70R18 tires. If that's not big enough for you than I'm starting to think that some of your modifications are trying to overcompensate for shortcomings elsewhere in your life? I mean in 2024, these new Land Cruisers are pretty darn capable right out of the box. I can't see lifting a brand new 80K vehicle and expiring the manufactures warrantee right out of the box by hey, you do you.

[@michaelgiles2561]

A large part of automotive culture is to make your vehicle your own. I don’t really understand how putting bigger tires on the vehicle that the person purchases relates to shortcomings?

[@OtzleeExplains]

Yup I agree with you. To each their own. There's no right or wrong way to do what you want with your own car unless you buy autozone mods.

[@paperthinpizza]

@@OtzleeExplains I guess that's true if you don't care about money.

[@OtzleeExplains]

Bottom line is people have different preferences. To each their own. You like thin pizzas, I like mines stacked, at the end of the day we both love pizza.

[@paperthinpizza]

Good point, as long as the thick pizza doesn't rub against the sides of my oven I can deel with it I guess.

[@jackbauer9347]

Bullshit...that doesn't clear...try going down a driveway at lock. kids.

[@OtzleeExplains]

What do we get out of it by saying it doesn’t clear? If you’re not the one driving it then you wouldn’t know. I’m not trying to sell you the Land Cruiser nor the wheels.

[@markquach4124]

after 1000 miles on the clock and many driveways at lock im happy to report that it clears

[@jackbauer9347]

@@OtzleeExplains becuase I've been around lifted rigs for over 20 years and you just plain do not have the clearance for 35's to not rub at all on the street. Off road will be even worse, but you said a lift is coming. If these were BFG's well then maybe no rub on street.

[@jackbauer9347]

@@markquach4124 dude...there are witness marks on the liner.

[@OtzleeExplains]

We have bmc on all our rigs with bigger tires. We’re simply saying this “current” setup with these wheels are not rubbing on the street or reversing at full lock. I know it will definitely rub when off-roading but as mentioned, a lift Is in the near future. This video was taken a few days out of the dealership and we just tried the wheels to see if it fits, a lot of people would appreciate us taking the time to try things so you don’t have to. I do appreciate your comment and experience but you don’t have to get nasty with your comments. Calling us kids, ok old fart. Maybe you should buy one of these newer models and see for yourself instead of being hard headed with your 20 years of experience. It’s folks like you that are stuck in the past with your stubbornness and ego.

[@alfagtv1098]

My FE is stuck in the big QC hold. Crickets from Toyota. Does anyone have any information on when these vehicles will be released?

[@markquach4124]

Be patient, theyre starting to arrive and available at dealer lots.
