  • Great Car for Family and Work - 2003 Toyota Land Cruiser
    By -

    Great DEPENDABLE suv. When we just had our first child....we needed something BIGGER and wanted a safe car that we knew wouldnt let us down. We have an 97 Land Cruiser and a 99 four runner......so we knew a 2003 Land Cruiser would be perfect for our NEW family.

    I enjoy owning and driving my LandCruiser. The only downturn is gallon of gas per milage. I guess most of SUVs do the same.

    Good performance and reliability. Fun to drive. Only major problem was the transmission had to be replaced at 85,000 miles. Regular maintenance is a bit pricey but necessary for optimum performance.

  • Love My Land Cruiser - 2003 Toyota Land Cruiser

    This is my second Land Cruiser. I love the reliability, performance and protection. I was in a very bad accident with my three small children last winter, on a dark and snowy blizzard night. The only thing that saved my children and their mother was the weight and build of my Land Cruiser. Having been a Land Cruiser owner for over five years, I can attest to the fact that I have not once experienced mechanical problems nor do I expect any. Its just a very well built car with a lot of room and good features.

    This is my 2nd landcruiser. The first one was a V6 and my 2nd one is a V8. I thought the 1st one was jewel but after driving the V8 and all the comfort that comes along with it, just one word. Outstanding, Quality, Performence, Dependable and good lucks. It has it ALL.

  • The Landcruiser Rocks! - 2003 Toyota Land Cruiser
    By -

    When we were looking for our next truck we like at several vehicles including the Lincoln Navigator, Cadillac Esclade, Hummer H2, and the Land Rover Range Rover. The Landcruiser offered the best of everything and is the most depend and reliable vehicle we have ever owned. This truck gives you an abosoulte sense of security. I have driven down streets with 3ft of snow (unplowed) without have to use any of the differentials or low-range settings of the Landcruiser. This is the best vehicle you could own, its almost like a Japanese Hummer!

  • Always wanted one - 2003 Toyota Land Cruiser
    By -

    I traded every 12 to 18 months trying to be happy with something less than a Land Cruiser. Finally I bought one new, a big chunk of cash for us. But we love the truck. Had it 5 years now and look to trade, but cant give it up. I fell so secure when I put my family in her. I have blizzacks for the 18 wheels and have drive through blizzards, never spinning a wheel. We love our gray Cruiser.

  • Its no Range Rover thank goodness - 2003 Toyota Land Cruiser

    The hightech drivetrain is outstanding. It has plenty of power and goes anywhere - I live in NW Montana and this is the car to keep you safe and secure in all weather.

  • Too Much $ for a Toyota - 2003 Toyota Land Cruiser
    By -

    Dont get me wrong, toyota makes a hell of a car but I believe paying $60,000 for 235 HP is not too great of an idea. I would reccomend buying a Land Rover Range Rover because you get more power and comfort in approximately the same price range, and best of all BMW makes it. Whatever you do, dont buy a Lexus LX 470 because it is the same as the land cruiser, except the keyless entry system opens the rear hatch automatically for $10,000 extra!

  • Hot SUV - 2003 Toyota Land Cruiser
    By -

    MOST RELIABLE , STABLE SUV. RESALE IS BETTER THAN ALL THE REST. HAD OLDER MODEL WITH OVER 250,ook mis, try that on any other SUV. LANDCRUISER ARE WHAT YOU WILL SEE OFF ROAD IN OTHER COUNTRIES WITH THE EXCEPTION OF MAYBE LAND ROVER....
