  • Nice SUV - 2008 Toyota Land Cruiser
    By -

    Stable on road and off with plenty of power and braking. Would like to see front console cup holder lighting for night time driving and overhead spotlight buttons lit also. I am getting 17.2 mpg city/hwy combined using premium. exterior sheet metal seems to be a little thin. I started to notice a clunk from the rear when starting from a dead stop and also when coming to a stop. I went to my Toyota dealer and found out a (TSB) Technical Service Bulletin was issued on this problem. The fix was to replace the drive shaft under drivetrain warranty at no cost. After replacement of shaft i have had no further problem. Overall the new Land Cruiser is solid and performs well!

    This is my 3rd Land Cruiser in 9 years. The 08 feels very heavy and solid. It is a great drive and looks great too. It feels a little truck like but overall Im happy to drive it.

    I was overwhelmed with smoothness and quietness of the vehicle. My family was overjoyed with it. My previous vehicle was 2004 Totoyo Sequoia which was also great, but the Land Cruiser is the better one.

    This is my 5th land cruiser and the very best. I will not let it go. My wife will get it once in a blue moon.

  • Literally Rock Solid - 2008 Toyota Land Cruiser
    By -

    I now understand the reviewers that describe this SUV as being carved out of a single slab of granite. You have to drive one to experience it. Every handle, button, lever feels precise, solid, and overengineered to perfection. The powertrain makes this land crusher incredibly fun to drive. The vehicle just oozes quality and has all the latest electronic gizmos to boot. Its not for everyone but if you can appreciate quality over quality and your know what this vehicle is made to do then you cannot go wrong with the TLC.

    Has enough room for all of us. Plenty of luxury for the kids.

  • Best SUV I ever had - 2008 Toyota Land Cruiser
    By -

    This is my 3rd LC and so far this is the best and most powerful of the three.its fun to drive and my wife approves it to be the best of the LC I have own. I had an 05, 06 . It is well built and solid. I will go on a long trip anytime with this vehicle.

  • No personality - 2008 Toyota Land Cruiser
    By -

    This vehicle is not what we were hoping for. No personality, no character, very poor instrumentation design, exterior styling that is non-existent. It is a carbon copy of a Highlander, and you can buy two of those for one of these. Wait for the next redesign.

  • A true "Flagship" - 2008 Toyota Land Cruiser
    By -

    My experience with this vehicle is limited (500 miles), however what a great, powerful, solid, comfortable, well-built, technologicially superior, cutting edge, handsome "BEAST". Toyota improved on not only the previous generation, but other leading all-wheel drive brands that I examined. Im very satisfied with the vehicle so far.

  • Impressive - 2008 Toyota Land Cruiser
    By -

    All I can hope is to have the time to experience all the capability of this truck. Within a day of the purchase, I found myself planning trips that I hadnt been on since I sold my Tacoma 4x4 in 2001. This is a huge truck that drives impeccably. The fit and finish is superb. The kids love the rear seat entertainment system.
