    2017 Land Cruiser LC200

    Nice I have been considering the Goal Zero stuff as an option, good to see it works in this context. Is that the 400 lithium version? Do you use the stock battery in your LX or have you gone to AGM? Great looking dog!

    Hello from Grand Junction, CO

    Thanks for the reply. I test drove a Jeep last night. I think with the ages and number of my kids that a larger vehicle is the way to go. I love our Land Cruiser and have always been a Toyota fan. Really leaning toward older LC. Any advice on specific year/model of older Land Cruiser in regard...
