Need a fancier Land Cruiser? Lexus’s got you covered with the LX 570. The luxury off-roader comes with the same power as the iconic Toyota, too, in the form of the 3UR-FE. The 5.7-liter V8 delivers 381 horses and 401 lb-ft of torque to wherever it’s needed, good for climbing over most obstacles in your path.
If you need speed, Magnuson builds a supercharger kit for the V8, resulting in a 550 horse-torque square of amazingness. Toyota once offered such a thing with Eaton, though only 504 horses and 550 lb-ft of torque tumbled down to the ground.
Cameron Aubernon's path to automotive journalism began in the early New '10s. Back then, a friend of hers thought she was an independent fashion blogger.
Aubernon wasn't, so she became one, covering fashion in her own way for the next few years.
From there, she's written for: Louisville.com/Louisville Magazine, Insider Louisville, The Voice-Tribune/The Voice, TOPS Louisville, Jeffersontown Magazine, Dispatches Europe, The Truth About Cars, Automotive News, Yahoo Autos, RideApart, Hagerty, and Street Trucks.
Aubernon also served as the editor-in-chief of a short-lived online society publication in Louisville, Kentucky, interned at the city's NPR affiliate, WFPL-FM, and was the de facto publicist-in-residence for a communal art space near the University of Louisville.
Where do you go for answers when you have a Lexus with a gorgeous leather interior but are not sure about how to maintain that luxurious look? The "Club Lexus" forums, of course.
