Toyota’s revealed the Land Cruiser Commercial, and it’s a no-nonsense beast for the off-road purist. Rear seats? Gone. Side windows? Replaced with steel. What you get is all function, no fluff. ✅ 2.8L turbodiesel with up to 500 Nm of torque ✅ Full-time 4WD with low-range and locking center diff ✅ Up to 7,500 lbs towing capacity – bring the trailer, the toys, or the whole camp ✅ Payload up to 1,665 lbs and over 2,200 liters of flat cargo space (LWB) ✅ Ground clearance, 31° approach angle, and 700mm wading depth – it’s built to crawl This is the Cruiser reimagined for the trailhead, the job site, and the long haul to nowhere. Who else would daily this into the wilderness? Full cargo area with middle seat delete Still gets leather...

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?
