This is basically a toyota prado not a 4Runner check the toyota prado 2003-2008 they are the exact same its a prado in Australia,europe and asia in asia they have both GX and prado and you can get tv in the back and front and 3.4l petrol v6 or 2.8l diesel or 5.0l petrol v8 or a 3.0l v6 petrol are available in both GX and prado also prado and gx are still the same like LX and Land Cruiser

My family bought one in 2007 brand new. It currently has 267,000 miles and it’s been flawless. Only issues have been air suspension - was changed to a coil kit, and timing belt and water pump. This is the most durable car you can buy.

I bought a 03 Lexus GX470. I wanted to work on a project and after spending thousands of dollars, I don’t regret it at all. I converted my GX from a city look to a mean, off road look. It has close to 300,000 miles but runs like it came out of the dealer!

@@idkwhtimduin My advice, just do basic tune up. Record its service history so you know what was done. Run the vin # just to make sure there isn’t any recalls. One important thing! If you look at the manual, for the 03 fuel recommendations, it states regular. Your not required to put 93 unless if you want to. Lot of folks say 93 is the best gas but since gas prices are skyrocketing, go based off from what the manual says because the engineers built that bullletproof engine to run on regular. Notice from 05-09 it mentions 93 haha!

We bought one in 2003 when they first came out, and then traded it for a 2008, which we still own. These are extremely well engineered trucks which are made for the long haul, and even with higher mileage everything just works. I call these the Rolex Submariners of the SUV world - they are ultra reliable, built like tanks, and hold their value better than almost anything else on the market.

Driving an 04 with 330 k. Everything still works as new. Solid as a tank , beautifully quiet and smooth. It drinks premium , indeed , but a small price to pay for an absolutely enjoyable driving experience. Carries all gear for camping for two , and a golden retriever in absolute comfort. Hits the trails then drives 4 hours home without missing a beat. Cant wait to see it roll 500 k !

After abusing my 370z i traded it with this GX, this car is PERFECT, i didnt want to buy a pickup cause in NYC there just annoying to deal with. This car fits both worlds, great vehicle for construction work and is such a smooth ride for inner cities. Get rid of the seats and u have a ton of space for Materials, and if u ruin the car its only 8k to get a new one

Traded in my 2010 V6 RAV4 for it which was also fantastic, but the luxury and capability of the GX are just what I wanted to enjoy the PNW even more. Thankfully I don’t drive much so fuel economy isn’t a big concern, but it’s honestly not that bad for a truck like this.

I just bought a Silver 2008 GX470 with 144,000 on it. Out of State from the kind of dealer I normally avoid. I'm about 60 so I gave it a good look over , checking fumes, cooling and oil buildup. All was good and we test drove it. These guys on KZbin are right, I have seen cars with 3 times less miles not feel this good. Now my wife hates her Rouge with 65,000 miles ..Bad! And this is my beater to save miles on the F150 with 150,000 on that. Lifted Jeeps don't fit the Grand Dad life . This is getting some beach overlanding upgrades for sure!

Hey KEvin... i love these older GX SUV’s. Amazing quality for a 12 year old vehicle ! Like any SUV’s their aerodynamics suck and gas mileage suffers especially with this V-8.. if you have unlimited empty pockets and gas costs weren’t an issue this would be a great vehicle. But overall, this is solid SUV and would love to drive it to sample it... That looks like the same Starfire Pearl (triple coated) metallic white exterior as my 2013 ES350... absolutely love this color .. out of 20 cars ive owned this is only my 2nd white car ( I had a white BMW X5 which was a piece of crap) and in fact traded it in for my ES350. The X5 was solid white and doesn’t compare to this Starfire Pearl white... The way it glistens in the sunshine is amazing.

Only things I dislike are the older engine (pre-2005) has less HP so it’s sluggish since it’s lifted and I got bigger tires on, and it really is lacking in storage compartments but I’ve made mods to help with that. I plan to get many more miles out of it.

Oh yea Im still scared of the S class even with a warranty haha My Brake Actuator was potentially going bad and that unfortunately is very expensive like $3-5k and thats like 1/3 of what I paid for the car. I heard some people were able to change it themselves but people who had a warranty got that part replaced under warranty. And warranties only cost like $2k for a Japanese car and its perfect to sleep well at night. Just make sure the warranty you get is prorated so if you ever wanted to cancel or sell the vehicle you can get a portion if the unused warranty refunded back to you.
