2001 Toyota Land Cruiser SUV 4WD 4dr SUV (4.7L 8cyl 4A)
my 4th Land Cruiser
 I bought my first Landcruiser in 1978 with 10k miles on it. I have owned a 1984 Cruiser, a 1992 Cruiser and now a 2001 Cruiser. The best vehicle was the 1978 with no electronics, manual transmission, and tough as nails. After the 1984 model, they have gone down hill. I don't want an automatic transmission! I don't want all this electronic crap! When I drive in wilderness situations, I am not listening to the radio or a CD; I am not watching a damn movie. I don't need GPS to tell me where I am going. Someday if the US is hit with warfare that decimates all electronic systems, I will wish I had my old stripped down no-frills 4x4. I don't want my vehicle thinking for me or making decisions for me. Even today, I have never used many features because the symbols are incomprehensible and I don;t want to refer to the manual to tell me something that should be obvious. BUT it is still the best 4x4 made, will beat any US made 4x4. A sales rep told me that Toyota is discontinuing the Cruiser and it will be made by Lexus.
