Overland Classifieds :: 2011 Lexus LX570

If you’re looking for a rig that combines sumptuous luxury with excellent all-terrain capability, then a Lexus 4WD is hard to beat. Sure, there are a wide array of luxury 4WDs on the market, but very few, if any, offer the same longevity. We’ve featured a number of these plush overland rigs recently, including a 2005 GX470, a 1997 LX450, and a 2018 GX460. The LX570 is another model well-suited to overlanding; based on Toyota’s legendary 200 series, it offers the same capability and durability you expect from a Land Cruiser, but with the added benefit of uprated comfort and tech. If you’d like a better idea of how this platform performs when the tarmac ends, check out this 2009 LX570 tackling rugged terrain on the Overland Trail Guides YouTube channel. Today’s example has covered just 114,3xx miles, incorporates premium modifications, and is priced at $59,000.
