Last week, Roman and André went to the Chicago Auto Show where they found all three Toyota off-road SUVs in one spot for the first time. First, up the 2024 Toyota 4Runner TRD Pro, the top-of-the-line 4Runner that’s likely going to be replaced by a new version by this time next year. But it’s still a legendary off-roader, one of the best in the business straight from the factory. Next up: the 2024 Toyota Land Cruiser, all new this year with new chassis, new engine, and a price that’s almost half what Land Cruiser’s used to cost in the U.S. Finally, there’s the Lexus GX 550, which shares its distinctive body style with the new Land Cruiser, and replaces the venerable GX 460.
