What’s so Special About the Toyota Land Cruiser?

There are few vehicles as beloved as the Toyota Land Cruiser. Over the years, the Toyota SUV has gone from the bare-bones FJ40 to a luxurious Range Rover rival.

The Toyota Land Cruiser is Going Hybrid–Will That Make It Less Reliable?

Although it doesn’t sell in massive numbers, the Toyota Land Cruiser is an amazingly reliable and well-regarded SUV.
