I realize that for some people, this is a pet peeve. Who cares whether it's air or hydraulic? Well, for Toyota quality matters, and they don't do things that have poor quality. I have a pretty old LX570, with 120,000 miles it's working perfectly. When you say air suspension, you infer a system that breaks often. People think of Land Rovers, European vehicles like Mercedes and BMW, they have countless air suspension troubles. I think it's important that people realize that Toyota knew that air suspicions were a problem, and decided to do it differently, in a way that it's dependable. Incorrectly saying that it was an air suspension inferred that it had the same quality as these European brands, and that's a problem.

I take my LX 570 regularly off-road. But of course, not with the stock 21" wheels. I use 18" wheels from Land Cruiser :-) It's a nonsense to take LX for offroad tests on 21" wheels. You should change the wheels/tires first. BTW, at the beginning of the video you mentioned that LX 570 is actually Land Cruiser and GX is Prado. It would be much better to say, that both are Land Cruisers. LX is Land Cruiser 200 and GX is Land Cruiser 150 or Land Cruiser Prado. Toyota use name "Prado" without words "Land Cruiser" just on a very few markets. Please, also note that LX DOES NOT have an air suspension! It uses hydraulic suspension.

yes they could've just swapped out the 21" with the 18" since there was a LC200 there. but the reality is very few LX owners will take her off road enough to justify getting a second set of wheels/tires. personally i traded in the 21s for the 18s and put on all terrain tires. then I got a set of the base 20s and put on nice all season tires.

Every situation is different. I own both for almost a decade so here is my subjective opinion and may differ from yours... GX is not great if you haul a family of 6+ on overland adventures or have the need to tow more payload than 5500#. I know the GX is rated to tow 6500# but honestly I would never tow at my max rating. 3rd row access on the GX sucks. At least the LX's 2nd row center console folds down to allow access to the third row. My family prefer to ride the LX over my GX because it is more spacious inside and has a much more useful tailgate (changing table, sitting area, access roof). If I solo, I will take the GX for its nimbleness and size. Engine is much more powerful on the LX even though it drives like a boat. With heavier duty OME/Icon springs to assist the AHC suspension, you can safely tow 8100# just like the Land Cruiser despite LX's tow rating of 7000#. There is more sound insulation compared to my GX. The entire underbody on the LX is flat and tucked up, unlike the GX and 4Runner which have the front diff dip down. The stock suspension (AHC) setup is much better and reliable than the rear only air suspension on the GX. Plus my rear air bag leaked during one of my family overland trips. However, you can upgrade the GX's suspension with aftermarket ones and coil springs. You can fit 34in tires without extensive modification. You can fit a 34in tire in the spare location without a fuss whereas the GX's spare location max out at 32in (33in if you deflate the tire a lot). You can easily swap out the stock 20in wheels with 17in/18in Land Cruiser or Tundra wheels. The standard stock transmission cooler is twice the size of the one on the GXs that come with the towing package option. I (not a mechanic by trade) work on both cars myself and have spent many hours underneath both (preventive maintenance) as well as a 4Runner to know each platforms' built quality. The GX is well built, but the LX/LC is built even better. The LX/LC is worth the money if it fits your specific needs.

You can do a sensor lift on the LX with its hydraulic AHC and clear 35's, the GX is a 150 Series so it's essentially a 4Runner with KDSS and all 5th Gen lifts work with it.

The sports design on the GX hurts the approach angle if I’m not mistaken. But my wife doesn’t take her 2017 off road so it doesn’t matter.

Never crossed my mind but that would be pretty sick actually. Just make it a super luxury pick up but I doubt they will with the new tundra coming out. They will have a super luxurious trim for those customers but it would be cool to see a super slick Lexus pickup.

Its's a little frustrating to see some of the world's best off road systems put into luxury vehicles where few people will use them off-roading. I'm not saying nobody will, but having a vehicle like a Lexus, Land Cruiser, Land Rover, G Wagons, etc, etc. lessens the probability that someone will because of the cost, and they hinder their potential by putting on low bumpers and big wheels/small tires.

Honestly I'd rather have the LX, the only thing that makes me want the Land Cruiser is the Toyota LC badging and it's heritage.

Enjoy these videos, but want to point something out. Yes I am a Toyota freak. It’s sort of annoying in every GX or LX video that you guys are skeptical or sort of surprised they perform well. Um duh… and yes people who buy these do take them off road, there are also people who buy Jeep’s and never take them off road. People buy what they can afford or what they like. The facts are that they both are over built Toyota / Lexus body on frame beasts. Put a bumper, some tires, and a lift and they are unstoppable.

Go for the LX you might aswell go big or go home, so yep at that money you just bite the bullet and get the low spec LX instead of the highest spec GX. I have off-roaded a V8 Prado for many years and it never let me down and hardly ever got me stuck enough to need to get the winch out or a mate in a Discovery to give a tug and did it with style and when sold I did not lose any money on it.Andre where is the UAZ looking forward to seeing what you make of it, I used one in the Ukraine while helping the charity Cheynabol dogs a worthy cause.

I think you guys do a great job. But everyone needs a break (just like all ICE/EV cars and trucks need a fuel/charge-stop). I can obviously be wrong but noticed your fatigue also in the last Nathan's Mercedes vs Genesis review.
