Curb weight is almost identical, wheelbase is only 2" different (GX is longer), third row seats work exactly the same, and much more. I was shocked at how similar they were in overall layout when I got the GX. The GX seems very much like an updated and improved 80 series. However, the 80 series wins with the front axle instead of independent fronts (in my opinion). You got a decent price on that truck.

The only thing that has kept me from buying one of these in the past is they require premium fuel, which now in 2024 in some places costs a full $1/gallon more than regular unleaded. I bought an '08 Volvo XC90 AWD V8 instead which only "recommends" premium but doesn't require it. I add a bottle of Lucas fuel treatment about ever 3 or 4 tanks of gas and it runs great, in addition to getting decent mileage @ ~17mpg city/23mpg highway. Inside it compares well in terms of capacity & leg room as well. I'd definitely look at the GX470 much harder if not for the fuel requirement.

Does your car still have the stock engine? I still have the same model 2006 but only have 98k miles on it and was serviced by the dealer. Mark Levinson speakers on the front side doors are blown so I look forward to how you replaced them.

Down shift when going down hills, too. Great review.

FWIW - ABS and transfer case issues are rare. DO OIL SERVICES - every 50k. Common issues: wheel bearings and CVs (front). SAIS system *will* die - and you do the starter same time as it sits under that bullsh*t. Yes, big service every 90k, but whatever. Rear sir suspension WILL die. You replace w/ coils (and helper bags if you tow) - no big deal. Everything else is bulletproof.

Can you clarify the one touch start. I can’t hear your engine at all?! Is that just with yours? Or am I just confused 🤷♀️ I have to turn key all the way to start not click, click..

How much the cost of changing the timing belt etc. ?
@ZentRose2 жыл бұрын
Depends on your local mechanic rates. The Lexus came with a receipt for $900 for the timing belt job with OEM parts (but that is probably on the expensive side)

Love the GX! What made you choose a GX over other vehicles? Is it your daily driver?
@jmleon923 жыл бұрын
You live in orange county right? i delivered uber eats at your apartment complex a few months ago and saw your GX and also saw another one of your neighbors has one too with a similarly built up setup
