we dont have that prado here in US...we have the other one...the toyota land cruiser, i guess you call it land cruiser 100 something like that there in the philippines. our land cruiser here cost around including tax and all cost $65,000 and the lexus counter part the LX 470 cost around $75,000, all gas engine though no diesels and i believe a little bit more advanced i guess. i was surprised with the price of it 5.1 million pesos and i said wow...that's a great deal of money...well just want to share how i feel

thanks a lot and have a great day guys
peace out ya all

Cale- the new prado, the newly crowned 4x4 of the year by four wheeler mag Lexus GX470, and the newest generation 4runner are of the same family. so it might be possible to say that it is available there, in different trimmings but same underchassis and basic body design, only difference is they are offered in v8's there whereas the prado here is powered by a v6 and diesel only.

Mas marami akong nakakasalubong na mga Prado LC120, kaysa 2003 Ford XP sa QC. Hindi naman seguro test drive lang dahil, yong iba naka park talaga sa mga malls.

Nasa Jan 2003 issue ng 4x4 mag ang graphical comparison ng LC 90 at LC 120.

Tama po si sir ARB. Yung Toyota Surf SSR-X sold in the US has the same underchassis with LC120 series. While the SSR-G version is sold in Japan. Ofcourse may inalis na mga addons like X-REAS, H-TEMS, DAC, and other complicated electronic control units in the Prados.

Just one question though, when was it crowned 4X4 of the year? Is it for 2003?

yes the Lexus GX470 was crowned 4X4 of the year by 4Wheel & Off Road mag pala not 4wheeler. sorry guys. it won over the wrangler rubicon, hummer h2, ranger, kia sedona, super duty, 4runner among others.

when the series 90 came out in australia i think it was also voted 4x4 of year by one publication.

yeah i do agree that the prado is very similar to the lexus GX...but for the 4 runner naah i dont think so, they have a different physical apperance and engine choices...but i dont know if they share the same flatform though....i guess they are somewhat available with different badging, configuration and all sort of stuff, the car makers love to switch and confuse consumers you know...like in asia the name is Jose while in US the name is John,,you got what i mean but any how thanks for that comments guys..its tru that we learn things every single day of our life.
have a great day to all and peace out ya all
