I'm an FJ60 over FJ62 guy, but I actually prefer the rectangle headlights on the LC250. I'm nearsighted and when I see a round headlight LC250 approaching I'm like "is that a defender? jeep compass?" I know that's something the 200 snobs say (which I am not), but with my mediocre distance vision, it actually happens to me. I will say after seeing them all on the roads lately, I think the Lexus is the looker of the bunch. Just seems a little more coherent in design. Something about the square plastic panels on the bumper wings of the LC250 rubs me the wrong way.

Congrats @r.swany on the new whip!

Little update from the Yukon. 4000 km into the trip and this tiny fuel tank is really bringing the suck. It’s becoming increasingly difficult to bridge the gaps between fuel sources. I’ve got 20 gallons on the trailer so I’m not going to get stranded. But I’m having to use them in order to avoid resort fuel sources that are priced at a premium. I get about 320 km per tank towing. You’ll have to do the conversion math. I’m fully assimilated not the metric system until crossing into AK later this week.

On a positive note, I’ve never felt short on power.

I know this is a 250 thread but I saw a gx550 in the nightfall mica today and it is one of the best vehicle colors I have ever seen. If I had seen it a year ago the 60 might have gone to that color.

When I tow (and other times), I am really glad I have an Aux fuel tank on my 200. I have the same small tank issue in the Tacoma. This is the biggest suck about this new generation of Toyotas in my opinion.

I believe I found the appropriate sized fuel tank to support my towing needs. Not sure how to install it.
