    Having driven one for three years in Africa, I'll pass extremely uncomfortable to drive, bouncy as shit, and way too much money. That being said you can load the crap out of these with a lot if gear/materials in the bed and they are just mechanical without all the fancy electronics. They will go anywhere though.

    We gravitated to the suv versions (this I would do), more comfy, better equipped( they cost us 80k each if I remember), we bought 70 at once for the mine, but Jesus they could go through nearly anything. Although we nearly lost one in a river, I fished it out with an excavator and tow rope in 5 feet of water. Wonder if I still have that video, see if I can find it. Might be on my HD in storage.

    Only pic I have on my phone of the land cruisers suv's is on the side of the mtn we worked on. My job was building/maintains the roads for the mining concession. These were our old ones.

    This is what I drove on daily for three years. If you saw what the roads looked like before I got there you would understand why, I would not use the ute, unless you do like the Aussies and put a camper on the back to take the spring out if the insane leaf pack on the Utes. The roads were literally 30 yrs old never maintained and built in iron ore. Ie dust, washed out, giant rocks and we had to explore them all. Was a lot of fun.

    Perhaps I should have posted this in the off-road.

    He told me closest match was 35%, not sure what brand film or if that makes a difference though. Definite improvement though, even if it could stand to be a little darker.

    Off topic but I can post a few more up from my adventures. If it's an issue mods take it down.

    Yeah it was a magical spot! I loved working there it is probably the best job I've had ever. I'd love to back, mining has died off though, and I kind of like being on North American soils

    It fit perfectly. I posted a picture of the finished product earlier in this thread.

    It's a 2016 skid plate from Bullet Proof Fabricating.

    Don't remind me :rofl:
    I just couldn't bring myself to plasti dip them. Sure I'll do the badges with dip, but I would gladly pay for a permanent OEM solution for something like that.

    Had Toyota Dealership install Leveling Kit. No rubbing with P265/70-17 with stock. Just wanted more clearance and higher stance. Very little off road or heavy hauling! Had dealer do it for warranty purposes.
