PS....few more weaknesses to add to my last post...more missing features that are beginning to wear on its value proposition....some I knew of others making themselves known now.....

Lots more.....

JBL sounds system horrible, no third row heat vent, interior lighting poor and cannot be controled by driver, climate control system struggles to maintain selected temp, no one touch intermittent wiper feature, excessive road noise from rear wheel wells especially in rain and slushy conditions, "floats" at highway speeds and hard to hold road in windy conditions, lots of body roll even in gentle turns....

2006 Land Cruiser

Summary:
Overall very pleased.

A bit disappointed though in the lack of some features one would expect in a luxury vehicle (one in the $50K plus range)

Strengths:
Smooth shifting, powerful with the 275 hp 332 torque drivetrain, rides beautifully, solid and quiet. Good reliability record.

Weaknesses:
No memory driver seat, no rain sensing wipers, interior lighting poor, outside rear view mirrors not auto fold in (for parking in tight spots with its large size), heated seat bottom only heats (not lumbar/seat back), no high intensity headlights. Supension needs some work...but sloppy in slippery conditions
