Believe it or not, you can trace the Toyota Land Cruiser's heritage back to the 1950s. Does that make it "iconic"? You tell me. Does it still make sense in the modern world? For some people, absolutely, yes.
It's a big car these days. And I mean really, big, if you opt for the more popular five-door long-wheelbase version. It also has seven seats, and more mud-plugging tech than most of the latest SUVs.
It's one of the original go-anywhere workhorses, and it still looks every bit the rugged Tonka Toy, but the latest incarnations, one of which I've spent a week getting to know, have more than a few creature comforts.
