FIRST DRIVE: 2024 Lexus GX 550 OVERTRAIL

[@FreedomLover170]

Only problem Lexus has with this vehicle is they can't produce enough of them.

Saw a Black Land Cruiser looked really nice! So I know my profile is a Ford Explorer ST but I just purchased a 2024 Lunar Rock Tundra Platinum w/ TRD package. I’m in love with this truck! The guys at Toyota Turnersville,NJ not only got this truck from another dealership but held it in their back secured lot for a month. Huge discounts on it as well. My salesman was Dan Bitner. Sales Manager Anthony and Finance Manager were extremely helpful great to work with as well! Definitely recommend this dealership!

My next vehicle will be the Lexus LC 500. I think it would look amazing parked next to my 21 LR TRD PRO Tundra

Im happy for you getting to review these products. Great work!

[@TundraDude34]

Thank you!

[@T-Dubb]

Yup that's a super nice ride. If I were in the market for a luxury SUV a Lexus would by my pick. i Definitely don't like the European ones. Enjoy your week with the Lexus

Bought my wife a 2016 rx350 and thing is like a spaceship compared to what I’m used to. This Lexus would be crazy for me! Love the color!

[@nateg4559]

GX550 looks great! Think I’d lean towards the GX over the Land Cruiser because of the Twin Turbo V6. Seems like a better engine for an SUV that size.

Got the OT+ and put 34’s on her. Looks and drives great. Definitely gets a lot of attention

[@AUav8r05]

On a waitlist for 25MY overtrail. Can’t wait excellent design. They fixed all my complaints (few) about my older GX460. I thought I wanted a LC, but a quick test drive I walked about feeling like the powerplant was cheap and not premium feeling compared to the GX drive back to back. Power in the LC was fine, but the 2.4 was just very buzzy, rough, unrefined compared to the 3.4TT. Surprising considering the two are very closely priced. In my head makes no sense not to get the Lexus.

[@rayandolina11]

Love my OT+ Looking forward to getting it off-road in the near future.

[@vietn803]

what are you getting as far as MPG and range from a full tank?

[@rayandolina11]

@ drove NY to FL and back and averaged 20.1 mpgs driving 70-90 mph. 315-325 per tank. Around town, basically my daily driving I average about 16-17 mpgs, which is about 295 per tank. Not counting “reserves” Toyota seems to allow for.

2024 4runner is my last vehicle purchase. Luckily for me, wifey wants to have this as her next and hopefully final vehicle purchase.😊

[@scottherman6000]

I drove a new land cruiser and not in the market but if I was the Lexus is the way I’d go. Because it’s a v6 and not hybrid and looks a lot better. I did like the land cruiser though

[@kottendo]

Lexus had me the second they got rid of the barn door. Overtrail + in earth is mine

[@GeauxTe]

I believe the Lexus is a better buy for those who want to keep it for a while. No battery drama to worry about in the latter years of ownership. I hope lexus keeps the battery out of the GX or alllows the option to those who only keep a vehicle for a short time and like the 4 cylindar engine. I would be more interested in the LandCruiser if it was offered in the 6 cylindar version. My heart calls out to the GX more.

[@bubba4072]

Not gonna lie. They look really good!👍

[@NurseDrew32]

That’s a dream car for me in the luxury model

[@elleninalaska]

So are you getting one for your wife?❤. Seriously, I love my Land Cruiser 1958. I upgraded the seats with Katzkin leather seat covers, which are so nice. I hope you are loving your 1794.

[@Davidami48]

Nice ride. How does it work when you test drive these vehicles with insurance? Hope it never happens, but what if you have a fender bender?

[@TundraDude34]

The vehicle is fully insured by Toyota

[@jimf5699]

Nice!!!

[@1GulFF]

Lexus OT with earth color best of them all wouldn’t even look at Prado 😂

[@mikedavis-gz5fk]

God I wish I could buy that but we already have new vehicles

[@chrisjmiller6]

$71,000 seems like a bargain when you compare it to other options in that price range. How does it compare to your Tundra-road/wind noise, quality of interior materials?

[@TundraDude34]

This and the 1794 are on par with each other. I was actually surprised by it lol

[@patbromwell8701]

So how long before she who must be obeyed gets 🤔 her new Lexus 😅

[@TundraDude34]

Hahahaha. I’m working on something for her currently, but its no Lexus!

[@George-on3zm]

Looks nice But 71 k. 😮but thats about right.

[@mlee6136]

Not sure why Toyota calls the new version a Land Cruiser when it’s actually a Prado. The real Land Cruiser J300 is bigger and looks more the part.
