I typically work all the time... like 5 days a week and sometimes 6 to 7 days a week. My wife is a Registered Nurse that works a rotating schedule giving here every other weekend off. We basically have four 80 Series Land Cruisers.

The 94 we call the "Doggie Mobile" dedicated to our two German Shepherds as a troop transport for them and is also the cargo van for transporting stuff. Gobi Ranger Rack and ARB front bull bar bumper and everything else is stock. Planning to do a 2.5 - 3 inch lift on it soon and replace all the bushings. It's basically my day off vehicle with the dogs around town and maybe up in the hills a little bit, but at 320k on it and the year, we keep it close to home, but it runs like a top.

The 1995 LC is a parts rig with a blown engine that still runs that I am really toying with putting an Chevy LS in and turning it into a snow rig. Might actually turn it into a pickup, but not a priority. Definitely pulling the engine out and rebuilding it as a spare for the other three.

The 1996 LC is the one I currently overland with the Grey (Moon Glow Pearl) exterior with the grey interior (hard to find). It has a very solid engine that has had a lot of work done to it, but will probably be pulled and reworked with a turbo. The paint job on it is done! It will have to be redone, but probably going with a Matte Grey paint (not a liner) . The upper interior is pretty much ripped out and getting refelted. Factory roof rack has been taken off and going to fill in the holes. It is a three seater with the two front seats and back driver-side seat as a backup jump seat. No lift on it yet, but going to put Dobinson 3 inch heavy 400 lbs+ in the back and a little lighter in the front and probably Kings everything else. Have a PullKitchen in the back and also a Bush Company Alpha tent on the roof with a four bar Rhino rack (low profile). Focusing all my attention on this vehicle. It is being used as an overlander and not a showpiece that never goes off road.

The 97 LX-450 is my wife's winter vehicle. The nicest one we have. Completely stock and a garage find we found in our town. Dang near perfect:)
