We’ve recently shared several high-end rigs to our classifieds, which are very cool but unattainable for the vast majority. This LX470 is a reminder that overlanding is not reserved for the wealthy and that you can purchase a well-maintained go-anywhere vehicle that’s also a great daily driver for just $16,500.
From the Seller:
“Great vehicle for overland camping, or just a fun truck to drive around town daily. If you know anything about the LX470, then you’ll know at 173,000 miles, it’s just getting broken in. The motor and drivetrain are excellent.”
