About this episode
Roman and Kase discuss the reliability of Toyota vehicles and compare off-road legends in a rugged adventure.
( https://www.alltfl.com/ ) Check out our new spot to find ALL our content, from news to videos and our podcasts! Recording from the middle of nowhere (literally 40 miles outside of Moab, Utah), Roman and Kase dive into a 3-day rugged adventure that pits two off-road legends from the same era against each other. Is the Land Rover LR3 actually as unreliable as the internet says, or is it a $4,500 bargain? And does the legendary 100 Series Land Cruiser still live up to the "million-mile" hype when you're dragging its stock sidesteps over slickrock? We’re breaking down the pros and cons of these 20-year-old rigs, from the LR3's surprisingly sturdy air suspension to the Land Cruiser's "Achilles heel" front differential. Plus, we address the elephant in the room: Modern Toyota Reliability. Are the new hybrid and turbo powertrains in the Tacoma and Land Cruiser 250 failing because of tech, or because people are "off-roading them wrong"? We discuss why "Low Range Recommended" needs to be more than just a suggestion. ( http://www.patreon.com/tflcar ) Visit our Patreon page to support the TFL team!
