I don't care enough to build one, likely have to get close to 6 digits to get something cool looking but it was pretty boring / disappointing in person.
I don't have a problem with hard plastics. I think the media has gotten everyone brainwashed where everything needs to be soft touch plastic. As long as it doesn't snap, crackle, pop it's good plastic. Most of the interior cubbies and doors are hard plastics in anything below the a midsize luxury car. Especially on a offroader, I think hard plastics make more sense.

Not that I am the target market for it. RZD is right, the market is gonna choose a R1T over a LC. I think the NA LC looks great but the size is a miss when it's effectively the same size as the T4R. Toyota has their segments way too crowded.
