Default Luxury and 4x4

I bought for luxury and four wheel capability. Snow in Tahoe, slippery boat ramp, getting out to the desert bar.... Four Wheel Magazine rated the GX 470 highly from what I read.
My Dad's Land Cruiser 2004 weighs 600+ lbs more. We have been wondering where that weight comes from? Bigger/stronger axles?

Bigger truck, your Dad's LC has got to be 6+ inches longer than your GX.
