Toyota Land Cruiser

While it might be due for a round of modernization, the Toyota Land Cruiser is one of those vehicles that has stood the test of time when it comes to durability. But until we get a new Land Cruiser (hopefully in the next couple of years), we’re happy to enjoy what we’ve got.

There are some vehicles that you know will be awesome off-road without having to worry. Rides like the Jeep Wrangler and Toyota Land Cruiser are two that come to mind. Toyota has a 2020 Land Cruiser Heritage Edition it will be debuting at the 2019 Chicago Auto Show to celebrate 60 years of the vehicle.

The Toyota Land Cruiser has been around since the 1950s in one form or another, but it’s a decidedly different vehicle from when it first burst onto the scene as a rugged, 2-door off-roader. The first real ancestor of today’s comfy, yet capable SUV came on the scene as the Land Cruiser J50 in 1967, but much has changed in these last 50 years in the realm of full-size SUVs.

Huge swaths of land in Australia are without mobile signals of any sort. In fact, over 65% of the country has no cell phone service. That means if you break down or get injured in these areas, you are unable to call for help unless you have a satellite phone.

I’ve rather got a hankering to move to Colorado and start living the outdoor life away from the brutal Texas summer heat that locks all but the most outdoorsy inside for months at a time. To make this move, I want a truck that can take me off-roading.
