Buy from a real dealer.. Pay a bit more but know it's safe, tires good, brakes good, frame good, uniboby perfect.. Buy a car from the auction and it's yours,, bad tranny, bad brakes, etc... you guys need to do real world research. put your wife or kid in a car that you bought from the auction without the knowlage of what to look for and?... Just a thought.. I have seen and bought over 5000 vehicles that's all I can say without the MOD getting his underwear all bunched up

Hey Rick,

I was told that there is a Toyota-Lexus only auction in Riverside. Is this true?

True... blown 5.7L makes good power and backed my factory warranty.

Believe it or not, I want the Toyota since I know I can't really go too crazy with mods.

I'll send you an email to follow up with you.

thanks,

Mod fever? I don't know what besides and ECU you could mod on the GL that you couldn't on the LC? Plus the LC has the whole TRD catalog as others have pointed out...

The GL, with the KD box, has more torque the LC but the fuel economy of a V6 Camry... if not better. It's a way nicer truck on the inside and the CDI engine is tried and tested. Airmatic suspension is way better on these trucks than the traditional coil on spring setup. Can easily tow the E or C on a trailer... I can go on and on. We looked at the LC and had a QX56. GL is a better truck.

Just my $.02
