Is the 2020 Lexus LX570 a luxury SUV that's WORTH it?

[@wrzl1675]

They keep it “ dated “ for a reason. LX 570/ Landcruisers are built for a minimum of 25 yrs of service according to Toyota and many owners have proven that over the decades.

[@RaitisRides]

Very good point my friend!

[@xmochix604]

Exactly .. reliability

but even then its not that dated lmao

[@committed2thecore]

I bought a 2013 LX and I will always own one from now on. Just a wonderful truck and it's built like a tank!!

[@razvandobos9759]

Oh this is worth it alright! WAYYYY more reliable than a Range Rover, and it has just about the same MSRP as a full size Range Rover. More solid, more durable, won't die for 25 years, and gets you anywhere in the world. Range rover will only get you across but not back to base.

I just bought a 2020 LX in nightfall mica a few days ago. 54k miles. I love it.

[@mw4180]

New or used it is totally worth it. Compare it to the MSRP of a Range Rover, Mercedes-Benz GLS, BMW X7, Lincoln Navigator, Cadillac Escalade, INFINITI QX80, etc. It’s either more reasonable/competitive. Standard it’s well equipped and extremely capable for the size. While the styling is controversial, and could use a redesign, no other vehicle can come close with reliability. I’d take a car that can get to 250k miles with regular maintenance, often with the ORIGINAL air suspension, over something with arguably better design. My Lincoln Navigator at 60k miles started air suspension issues and the engine was shot at 120k miles. If I bought the LX 8 years ago, it would still be running like a dream.

[@perrywiggins6567]

Only the QX80 is the better value with Japanese reliability and the V-8 power and 4*4 capability.

[@marcopazorell7770]

Entertaining review...but make sure the deets are accurate: the third row is manual to pull the back of the seat up (the only part aside from headrest that is manual), but the button you were pushing in the the folded position with no response is the automatic fold the back down onto seat, next button will automatically fold them back to storage position. Also the active height control is automatic when you reach 18 mph, the speed at which it becomes smarter than most of its drivers. After 18 mph, it automatically adjusts for aerodynamics and speed. The only reason(s) to manually raise/lower is for entering low clearance garages, off roading, exiting/entering the vehicle (which there’s also a button to set for automatic lowering when the engine is turned off), and lowering to hitch up trailers. The other big miss which is a great feature, is the reclining and forward/back movement of the second row...for when you remove the leather condoms to watch a movie while snacking on a cold Twinkie. 2 years ago I bought an ‘08 with 70k miles to pull my 2 horse trailer, best purchase I’ve ever made.

The 1UR-FE V8 in the GX460 with 301 HP and 329 lb-ft (446 nm) is also my favorite too. And last but not least, the 1GR-FE V6 found in the 2005-2014 Tacoma and 2007-2015 FJ Cruiser is also my favorite. Well done with this video, Joe!

[@trevorsutherland5263]

I had a 13 year old LX 470 with 140K miles and not one rubber strip, chrome trim, leather surface, button, switch or stalk was broken or inoperable or showed any sign of wear. It honestly was so reliable it was boring, and life is too short to spend 20 years driving the same car. I now drive a Jag F-Pace S and I don't care if it only lasts 10 years; ONE day carving through life in this thing is more fun than a MONTH of driving a LX. If you are 75 or older, the LX 570 is for you.
