Anyone here interested in tough, long-lasting vehicles?

Mainly the kind that can handle any harsh driving conditions and where maintenance can be delayed but the machine keeps on ticking. Any new vehicles? I'm talking mainly about the old Land Cruisers, 4runners and Lexus LX.

All the new vehicles have hybrid and turbo engines and not sure how they'll handle it. The new 2024 Toyota Land Cruiser has a hybrid powertrain, but I hope Toyota has built it well and it can go to 300k miles.

 
I would sure hesitate to buy a turbo anything, given the reliability issues of air pumps spinning that fast. On the other hand, it works for the M1.

I know, I'm with you. But in like 3-5 years when I need another car, it will be so hard to find a vehicle that does NOT use a turbo! Nissan is always slow to change, I wonder if the Pathfinder and the Frontier will continue using their good ol 6-cylinder NA.
