I drove a old Land Cruiser Prado in Iraq while on deployment there. There were a ton of them there. It ran, the ac worked, and it NEVER broke down. Best of all, it allowed us to "blend in" while traveling amongst the natives.

My parents had a 2001 Land Cruiser prado when they were stationed in Africa it was our favorite car, we took it off road and through Safaris the only complaint was it was under powered.

We had two 2004 Land Cruiser diesels with manual transmissions issued to our teams while I was there 2005-2007. Those things were bullet proof, and the A/C was nice. I didn't think much of it at the time, but it would be nice owning that Land Cruiser diesel today.

James gotta say I’m really enjoying your auto content man. Full speed ahead! I had a ‘92 Previa for years and the 90s Toyota interior brought back so many wild memories

Thank you! I'm really enjoying making it. More to come.

First the Kei Van, now this? Truly a man of culture I would love to see you in Japan with gun show interview vibes

I've owned the very same Land cruiser prado LJ78 16 years ago. We only had few of them imported models in India so mine was the only one in the whole city. I've driven a lot of other vehicles since then but I still miss it today.

70 Series has been on the bucket list for some time. I always knew you were a man of culture.

It's cool but not using such a vehicle as intended sucks...

James is a great writer. I will watch most anything he makes, I'm just lucky that we have similar interests.

Some trivia: In the original novel by Michael Crichton, Toyota Land Cruisers were used as the tour vehicles in _Jurassic Park._ While they were replaced with Ford Explorers in the movie, the game _Jurassic Park: Operation Genesis_ retains them.

In all seriousness, I know I'm going to like a random action movie when somebody pulls up in a Land Cruiser. It's my genre.

The best part about this car-review video is that it doesn't have Doug DeMuro in it.

WTF, JR is evolving into the best Car youtuber online!

As an owner of a KZJ71G-PET myself, I can tell you that the KZJ78 is in absolutely impeccable condition. I didn't skip any part of the video, and believe me when I say I know this car inside and out, as I've had to rebuild mine almost completely. You have every OEM part, sticker, and every little part of the interior looks great, even those that tend to break easily, which most would just let pass if they were missing or broken. I loved your video. Finding someone who appreciates the exact same things about this car is an absolute gem. I really hope you make a series about it or feature it regularly in your videos. Well-deserved like and subscribe.

My dad had a50s series. The hand crank backup starter was cool. That was my favorite part about it.

I wish they still made em like this. The less computers in my vehicle the better.

Depending on your country you can still buy brand new 70 series land cruisers. No computers or anything to break. Just a simple and reliable truck but with that new car smell 👌

Yes they do. The 70 series platform has never died just been updates every year. Just tweaks here and there. It’s pretty much the same car since they first built it

You can import 70's from Australia, they have a diesel manual that's perfect and has zero infotainment or bullshit. Austalian 70 series quite literally hasn't change since they came out in 83. You can thank the mining industry there for that, pricy though since not many outside of the mining corps still buy them

That's the beauty. They don't have to. They did, so you can still get them for a fraction of the price of a new car. With all of the money you save, you can drop a motor in when the time comes and save that much more by driving it forever.

Finally somebody says something about the Prado during 90s . This Prado is something special. The Prado changed similar to the New Tacoma and 4Runner after 1995. Note : in our region they call it (Landcruiser II)Thank you

I had a LJ78 Manual I drove it 17 yrs I loved it.!! The Best Truck ever! Great Video!

James J. Reeves Esq. This is a refreshing change of pace. I could see this channel becoming a "Lifestyle" channel. TFB for all things that go BOOM, and this channel for the rest of the stuff.

Is The Car Care Nut doing gun reviews now too?!

More of this please

What an absolute beauty and, lucky to find one in such good shape.

Hi James, I've had a KZJ78 for around 6 months here in New Zealand. Love it. A few worthwhile things to do to get better power from the 1KZ is: Better dump pipe (Downpipe) from the Turbo and a 3 inch exhaust, it improves the power greatly and helps keep temperatures lower in the engine. Next for me will be a Front Mount Intercooler, these two mods add around 30 to 50 HP, without any tuning. As soon as I drove the truck after the 3 inch exhaust was fitted, I could tell the difference. Much more power and better high speed cruising. There's a company here in New Zealand that makes the custom Dump pipes - KRAE 4x4 - they ship internationally. Enjoy.

My mom started joining me watching James channel: I asked her: also a firearm fan? She says: No…

Damn fine vehicle bro! 🤙🏻

You should talk to Skid Factory or something, I guarantee you could turn up the boost on that a little and it would still be dead reliable. It might even be better for it because you won't have to be going foot to the floor all the time just to keep up with traffic. If you can cut your acceleration times that means you're back to lighter throttle cruising sooner. Skid Factory can tell you what would be a safe level to go too and what you need. Aussies know their stuff.

I lived in Tanzania for two years 2005-2007 and bought a used Land Cruiser Prado 1992 years model from Japan (delivered to Tanzania). I really loved that veichle, but had to sell it when I left Tanzania. :(

I grew up in the 90s and this has to be my ultimate dream 4x4. Excellent video review, Mr. Reeves. I really enjoyed it. Thank you for sharing this.

What an incredible video! You've gained a lifelong fan from Pakistan. I happen to own the same model of J78 as well. You can imagine the smile on my face while watching your video and seeing your car. Looking forward to seeing more of your videos in the near future. Once again, keep rocking !!! and thank you!

You guys out in the east have done a damn good job keeping all your cruisers and pajeros in such good working order all of these years. This gear head salutes you and your people's unending love for these beautiful machines

That's a lot more tasteful than any new monstrosity of an Escalade or Denali/King Ranch/Platinum pickup that yukky new money people would drive. That SUV screams 23rd generation Landed Gentry.

Nice cruiser James, keep these cool videos coming

Great video. Enjoying this series, and it’s good to note that we all have other interests outside of the 2A/firearms community. One day, I’ll be making lawn makeover videos with a side hustle of tractor maintenance videos. LOL

Love the vehicle reviews man!! Excellent content!!

loving the cars reviews, just the way James speaks is great, I could watch him review a tv stand lmao

Really enjoy the content James

I’m liking the car reviews definitely carry on with them

Great Video James 😎 Thank you for sharing this Landcruiser with us 🙏 God Bless

Man this thing is such a vibe, excellent taste james!

Really dig this kinda content from you. Now I need one.

Finally get to see this LC after all the peeks in your other vids. Solid f-ing choice, James. Im a big fan of older SUVs especially the JDM ones. And now that the imports are coming in due to the 25 year rule, I'm also on the hunt for my own. Hopefully i can snag a nice 2 door Pajero

James nails this video. Well done. 😊

James that is one gorgeous and classic LC...best color i can imagine. Still kick myself for selling my '78 FJ40 back in the early 90's. Enjoy!

Very nice James!

Love land cruisers. I have a 30 year old 80 and I’m in love with it

Great video and epic Land Cruiser! You always have all the great info and ideas keep killing it fine sir.

Really enjoy this content, would love to see more!

Just lovely. Thank you.

I'm diggin' the car content James, and I do say, You have exquisite, albeit, very eclectic taste in vehicles.

Great video, nice change of pace. Though I’m not a car guy always pleasant to see gun guys share their hobbies outside of guns.

Gotta say I like it. I hate that I like it. But I still like it.

Great content James. Keep it up.

who doesn't love a LawMan who drives left handed Japanese Relics as well as being Full of Knowledge of things that go bang

Make more contents like this. More informative plus its totally diffrent. Kudos james...

These are on my wish list 😍

I love your classic car as well. I have always been a fan of the LandCruiser family. Looking forward to owning one someday.

Sweet ride. I'm really liking your car reviews

Lawyers, guns and cars. Love it.

You’ve mastered the product review, I could watch you review paint colors and I’d still be intrigued.

I like your video all the work you put behind it , I wish more car people, could do what you just did, and the tone of your voice was just right 👍

Cool vehicle. Here in Aus, I’m running a 2020 79 series dual cab V8 diesel with portal axles and a 300mm chassis extension. Nothing can stop it and it makes all the big American trucks look like toys😊😊😊

I wish they still made em like this

Love your passion.

I really like the steering wheel...and that it's rugged enough to handle abandoned tennis courts.

I love this take on "The Best Land Cruiser" and why it's more about what's the best Land Cruiser for you. I have a 2006 100 series Land Cruiser that's halfway build and for me it's the perfect Land Cruiser. It can breeze through 1000 mile road trips getting to cool places, then do days to weeks off-road pounding on rocks and dirt trails, easy to camp and live out of, and even though I've put a ton of money into it. It's still cheaper than a 200 which makes me not hate myself for every scratch that gets put on it, and for a lot of what I'm actually driving most of the time, it's way more comfortable, quieter, roomier for my sleeping platform and much more powerful than an 80. I love pretty much every cruiser for what it's the best at, and there is a Cruiser for most people depending on your use and build. Pick what works for you and your budget and join the cult. It's by far the best car community I've ever been a part of.

Holy cow, that's a great looking Toyota!

Love this truck and this video. Enjoyed seeing all the familiar Pensacola Beach locations.

Love this vid James, might have to investigate this as I hate all the intrusive electronics and excessive plastics on the current offerings here in Aus. Rock on Mr Booty Shorts!

There's just something so aesthetically pleasing about this vehicle.

absolutely beautiful LC

Gorgeous!

Love this. Watching this in my 300,000 mile Toyota Sequoia, and ive been eyeballing 80 series Landcruisers, this is also on my list. I figured being a Glock guy, you had no taste... this is a gem! Awesome video as always! Looking forward to more content on this.

I enjoy these videos.

I like where this channel is going.

I just bought a 97 fzj80 and couldn't be happier.

Watching the video from Burundi Africa.these lc's are common my dad used to have one of these.i enjoyed the videos it brought so much childhood memories.the third row seats were my favorite

Beautiful

Great video

I love this car series you have been doing! Strangely, I agree with your car taste more than your gun taste.

A man after my own heart… Ive had a 70 series on the list for a while now.

Lovely car, I’m excited for your Kei Car technical episode

That thing is gorgeous.

What a beautiful land cruiser

The shot outside the pony goes mad hard. More car content!!

James, I'm looking forward to your upcoming Mega Cruiser video. 😉🤞

I never would have taken james for an obscure jdm fan such as myself. One of us one of us one of us one of us

Nice ride ,am you got a good one, hope keep doing the car reviews.

Thanks for all the effort to educate us on the history. Like watching a little documentary. Love the niche stuff. We don't need more "Initial Look" of 2024 vehicle videos. (that is already pretty well covered)

That's a good looking Prado. I didn't realize they had that many off road features

I always wanted a 1970’s FJ40. Very Cool!

I really like these cool, obscure but also rad, vehicle videos you’re doing! Micro bus, Land Cruiser….maybe a Hilux? Or 70’s Datsun pickup next??

bad ass LC! congrats enjoy it

Gawt damn I didn’t know I needed one of these but now I know. Lord that’s a beautiful vehicle.

I want to be James Reeves when I grow up.

That's a handsome vehicle. Paint color and the chrome accents are very nice looking.

Love the cruiser James! My 97’ 90 series, has the same color combo as yours, my interior has a bit more purple in it I believe. Mine also has the sun/moon roof and an intercooler for the turbo. Really enjoyed the video.

In my country they use these to take kids to school, one them has 500k km that's 300k miles for Americans reading this, and they're dirt cheap and really reliable

The Toyota Prado J78 has got to be one of the coolest looking SUVs of its generation. So it's surprising how there's barely any videos of it on KZread.

Man, keep it coming! At this point I'd watch you review cooking utensils. 😂❤

Love me, my old toyotas. I'm the 2nd owner of a 90 supra targa, and I've had it since high school. I'm really glad I talked myself out of selling it multiple times over the years. 🤘🤙✌️

Agreee ... Prado J70 ... is the best handsome land cruiser ever ...
