I'm planning on selling mine in the next few months. This will be a decent barometer for me.

This one does not look to have the timing chain guides done, though. And it's a year older than mine. Similar mileage, though.

I hope this doesn't mean you're leaving us? Us newbies need you

Maybe. I dunno. I've had mine since early January of 2016. Just ready for something different. Just at that point in my life where I don't have as much time to maintain vehicles and enough money to buy something new.

Local Toyota dealer has an unclaimed 1958 edition Land Cruiser coming in a month or two. May put $1000 down and see if I like it.

Eager to hear your impression of the land cruiser!

Still not 100% that's the way I'm going just yet. If you asked me a few weeks ago, I was eyeing the new Defenders.

There is some Land Cruiser hype right now and a lot of dealers are seizing the opportunity to pocket a $10k markup. The dealers who aren't marking them way up have their first allocation already spoken for, save the one 1958 edition that I found.

I like the idea of the 1958 one, but I have a dog that rides with me a lot and I worry about cloth seats soaking up a lot of hair and dog smell. That said, my LR4 rolls with seat covers most of the time, so not sure putting seat covers on cloth seats really makes a difference for me.
