Thoughts on The CALTY ROX J250 Land Cruiser Bumper?

Hey guys, if you are looking for the battery on the 2025 Toyota Land Cruiser and cannot find it under the hood, you are not alone. That was the first place I looked too, and I was pretty confused at first. On the new Land Cruiser, the battery is actually located in the rear of the vehicle, not under the hood like most people would expect. This is due to the hybrid components under the hood. I figured I would make this quick post to help save someone else the time and confusion. If you came here looking for the proper jumping points under the hood, check out my other forum here --> Where to Jump a 2025 Toyota Land Cruiser Below are the pictures showing where the battery is located.

J250 CALTY ROX Bumper

One of the biggest letdowns at SEMA this year was the front armor on both the CALTY ROX and the new 4Runner SURF concept. Both bumpers felt like an afterthought on each build. The CALTY ROX bumper at least somewhat complemented the Land Cruiser’s body lines, though not by much. It's big, bulky, and feels like a transformer add-on. I understand why TOYOTA does this though. They don't like cutting into factory plastics and "destroying" a perfectly built concept body. As for the bumper on the 4Runner SURF... it’s honestly pretty bad. It would be best to just cut it off and start over. What do you think of both bumpers?
