- Automotive Engineer David Chao provides 10 reasons why you should buy the current generation 2022 Lexus GX 460 instead of waiting for the new generation 2024 Lexus GX 550. The current GX 460 is rock-solid reliable, built in Japan, and has that silky smooth 4.6L V-8 engine. It has many merits that may go away when the new 2024 GX debuts in about a year with a 3.5L turbocharged V-6 engine. Do you agree or disagree? Let us know in the comment section below. David, by the way, has owned 2 Lexus GXs previously including a 2015 and a 2017 and currently owns a Lexus IS 500, Toyota 4Runner, and soon, a 2022 Tundra TRD Pro.

I was a Lexus Service Consultant at one of the largest and busiest dealerships in the U.S. for over 15 years, and the Lexus GX460 was consistently one of the most trouble-free vehicles produced. In a world where every customer involuntarily say”I love my Lexus “
Transfer case leak issues. Not a cheap fix. Also the brakes are terrible.
@@gabrieldegomez2271 Not true and no they are not
@@gabrieldegomez2271 They do not have transfer case leak issues. If you look it up, you will find some people complaining about it but it’s extremely rare. Toyota transfer cases and differentials just do not leak. And the brakes work great.
@@andybub45 I own a GX, my transfer case has a leak. The mechanic says this is normal for the GX and the 4runner. Do an online search and you will see people complaining about the issue. The brakes work yes but the pedal and the feel of the brakes are the worst of any vehicle I have ever driven. At stop lights, the vehicle will creep forward unless you apply a lot of pressure. Look that up as well.
Needs a input shaft seal. Big deal. I have a 21 and tow 5k boat/trailer with no brakes on it. The brakes are strong, trust me. Panic braking is actually scary sensitive due to PCS.
This review was the most concise and easy to follow videos I’ve ever seen. No annoying music in the background, great editing, and all valid points 1 through 10 were made. Job well done, sir!!
Thank you so much! I'm glad it was helpful!
Just bought a 2022 GX460 about a month and I love it so far. I don’t drive it much but when I do, it does feel good to be behind the wheel. I’m not a truck/SUV guy but I love the GX thus far.
The most well-educated review I’ve seen on the Lexus GX 460. A friend of mine had a chance to work with Lexus engineers back in 2017, and they said the same things about the GX even back then.
Hello David, your videos on the GX (along with AMD @ The car care Nut) have been very helpful. For all of the reasons you spell out, I have a deposit on a 2022. Can’t wait to get it. Keep up the excellent work!
I purchased 2022 GX two months ago and I have a good feeling that I will be driving this for a very long time.
I have a 2004 GX 470 and I absolutely love it. From the paint to the powertrain, it has withstood the test of time. Reliable and smooth. I plan to pick up the current Gen GX when the opportunity presents itself.
I have a 2008 GX470. It only has 148,000 miles on it. That’s nothing for a Lexus. We definitely want to buy a new one this year, but I’m torn between the GX460 (I feel like it’s just a little smaller inside) and the 2023 Toyota Sequoia. Decisions, decisions..or do I put new tires, fix the back up camera and the radio on our GX470 and keep it another 5-7 years? Tough choice!
yes the GX460 mpgs hurt in the feelz 😥
I have a 2004 with 63K miles on it, i guess I'll keep it forever.
@@tomgarifalos866 I just wish they made the Sequoia in Japan 🤬. I’m in the exact same situation. I need that extra space, but that GX is just built so well.
@@Dacoldest23 if you need the space the GX 460 will disappoint. Don’t get me wrong I love mine, but we don’t travel much anymore, our son is all grown up and doesn’t live with us, my husband has an rv for his adventures, and if I go somewhere it’s just my son and I on a snowboard trip or bike trip. It really is a4 person vehicle. I’m thinking that even going on a beach trip to Florida this year it will be a problem. Four adults , one dog and everything we need for a beach trip will also require a car top carrier. My Escalade could handle all that, but it had mechanical issues. So I guess the gist of it is, if you need the space the GX will be lacking. Third row is useless, that’s my personal opinion I never have it up.
I ordered my wife a 2022 luxury model. It was worth the 4 month wait. Zero mark up. Love it
My wife and I are in our early 60’s and purchased two ‘21 models last year. We plan to keep them for the rest of our driving lives. We have always had at least one Lexus since 1994.
May I offer congratulations for your sound judgment. In my neighbourhood the best we can do is a husband and wife with a pair of Hyundai Elantra Tourings and another couple with a set of VW Golf wagons. 🙁
@@rightlanehog3151 - In the long run, a Lexus is the less expensive choice. 320K miles out of my first LX and sold the second LX with 280K. The only thing I did for repairs was the driver seat cushion foam replacement on the first and a fuel pump on the second. Otherwise, oil / filter changes, transmission and transaxle fluid changes and tires.
Totally agreed. I own 2010 GX460 and 2014 Land Cruiser. Both black in color. The GX is 4 years older but the quality is much better the LC. The ride quality ,paint , body structure. So easy to dent my LC, but not as much as for GX.
My partner just purchased one of these to upgrade from her 2013 RX350 after wanting on for a very long time and I never really understood why she lusted after it so much. But in the past month of her owning it, I totally get it. What a solidly built vehicle. I have no doubt that it's going to be with us for a decades!
Very informative, great video! I have a 2021 and want to get the 2022 just for the updates but now watching your video I really want to update! Thank you!
I have a GX, LX, and Avalon. I love Toyota. You can't beat the quality. Very enlightening review.
Engineer, producer, director and actor…thank you for such an informative video.
Great video David, your next video should be what you think the next GX will be like. Changes to power train, will the next GX have a panoramic sunroof and perhaps a slit tailgate? Looking forward to it.
I could not agree more with you and your video. Thank you for making and sharing this video
I have a 2020 GX460 and when there are big snowstorms in my area, i am happy to drive that beast. This SUV is ready for every weather.
Ready for anywhere in the world… it’s on every continent and will always get you home
I second this. My 2015 did great this winter in New England
Hi David!
This is probably one of the best videos I’ve seen you do and I’ve been waiting for this patiently and as usual you exceed everybody’s expectations; I definitely am going to purchase a 2022 but I have to see at the end of the year if the 2023 is going to have the same properties…same engine etc. etc. again, I thank you so much for your passion and your relentless pursuit of perfection, you truly are the best, of the best, of the best… Stay well and hope to meet you sometime in 2022 or 2023 in Florida with Kirk…
Respectfully Submitted,
Jimmy USAF🇺🇸✈️😇👍✝️🙏💜🇨🇦🇯🇵🇨🇮
Thank you so much for your kind words Jimmy!
Don’t wait too long with delays etc , if you see it I’d grab it . My 2017 has been a great purchase the suspension etc is amazing .With the tech upgrades I’d love the 2022. Pretty sure it’ll be the v6 in 2023 ,that’s in the new tundra ( turbo) .And it may be a long wait. Yes better gas mileage but reliable? And if one pushes a turbo there goes the gas mileage . PS Toyotas production lines are going very slow now. Who knows with future pricing also .
Definitely buy this year, as the other commenter says they're moving to a turbo v6 in 2023. I have a buddy who works at the Lexus manufacturing plant and he confirmed it. Gas mileage won't be much better than the v8 and turbo engines don't last nearly as long as naturally aspirated ones. The current engine can last for 300k easily, 500k or more with good maintenance. Anything with this engine including Land Cruisers are basically this eras "old volvo that lasts for a million miles". Heck if you want you'll be able to pass this rig down to your kids 20-30 years after you buy it.
I’m not sure which part of Florida you are in but I’m a sales consultant at a Lexus dealer in Jacksonville Florida, we have some available if you were interested!
Traded in my 2020 Lexus RX350 F-Sport for brand new 2023 GX Premium. 3,200 miles on it & its the best vehicle I have ever owned! Absolutely love this behemoth of a vehicle!
Just bought mine :)
2023 premium plus sport package!
Thank you for a great video. You have answered most of my questions.
I just ordered my new 2022 GX 450!
I was questioning my decision bc there wasn’t one to test drive. But your video has given me the reassurance I needed! Thanks!
The drive will be fantastic- silky smooth!
I finally pulled the trigger and purchased a '13 a few months ago. I absolutely love it (even with gas prices right now)! At 160k, it had more miles than I wanted, but it still looks and drives like new. Amazing build quality (and it was obviously well cared for).
2013 was the last year with the more attractive grill. Awesome!
How does it drive today? How many miles you at now?
@@jamo_montana1628 Drives great! Slow compared to my other cars, but super smooth on the highway. Also remarkable offroad.
It's at around 171k now. I did have to replace the radiator a few months ago, and did the waterpump, thermostat, idler pully, and tensioner while I was in there.
I have the GX460 Lexus 2022 and I love it I ordered it in November 2021 and finally received a call in March my truck came in the Atomic Silver with Off White interior and Black trim it drive and ride so smooth so glad I bought 1.
Very informative about the GX..absolutely right the best SUV on the road..your 10 reasons are on spot..thx
Thank you so much for confirmation that I have chosen the perfect and the best out there and yes I bought the 2022 GX460 and love everything you have mentioned in this video! I ♥️ my GX 460💯 no doubt!! Thank you for the perfect 10 reasons!
Christina Chung enjoy it excellent vehicle.
Very thorough review sir
Very nicely done. Have always liked the GX model.
I just picked up a low milage -17 GX460 Luxury this week. Perfectly refined enough of me!!!!
Good review!
couldn't agree with you more. This has hands down been one of my favorite SUV's. I just bought a 2022 model a few months back and I absolutely love it. I thought about going with the new LX, but for most of the reasons you listed here was the reason I went with the GX. No regrets here.
That was a great review and so much on point. I bought this model year thinking that if I waited I would not get the V8 engine which was a must have for me. Plus it has the infotainment update.
And your wife will love it. My 2017 seems like we bought it yesterday. Yes it’s premium fuel but even the driving responsibly we get better mileage than some pick-ups and this is a frame on frame . We feel very safe in the case of any mishap . Just change the fluids and zero problems . In traffic I simply relax , no rush listen to the amazing radio .
Had an 05 470, best vehicle I have ever owned but at 17mpg, it is now someone else's favorite vehicle.
I just bought a cpo gx460 and it's so good.. yeah it's not super tech filled.. but it's actually just amazing. i love this thing
Currently own a ‘22 GX460 in nori green and it’s a dream. Drove it from NC to CA with zero issues. Totally acknowledge the gas consumption but not once did I worry about a singe mechanical or electrical failure throughout the 2800 mile trip. There is something to be said about the reliability of a Toyota/ Lexus product. We also own a 100 series LC which we drove across country as well with zero issues or worries. Just smooth miles. If you’re looking for a vehicle that you don’t want to worry about for anything and also ride in comfort the ‘22 GX460 is an easy choice. Really just depends on what you want and if you truly believe in a product. Would buy a GX460 or 470 in a heartbeat.
Thank You very much for this information again .
Thx Dave..I concur with you 10 reasons..everytime I drive my '22 gx it feels like I'm floating on the interstates..I'm going to keep this one..
I just traded in my IS350 F Sport and got brand new, 2023 GX460 premium $7k off of sticker price. In Eminent Pearl, this car is a beauty. Refined, smooth, powerful, and safe. I am planing on doing 1000 miles oil change and tint all windows. Dealers are discounting them severely now to move the stock - like David said - last time to get V8. Thank you for informative video and your perspective!
03 GX still running. About to go for a week in the wilderness in it and another one.
What's wild is that it can be repaired with relative ease with hand tools in any person's garage
We are trying to decide between ‘21 vs ‘22.
Awesome video.
Dear Sir feist I want to thank you so much for your video and the for all the efforts you've spent in doing this video
Second as an owner of this beautiful monster i had my 2022 after owning 2017 I really enjoyed this car so much as you mentioned it's fun to drive and very reliable vehicle
Recently I have installed Gibson single exhaust which comes especially for the 4runner and after checking all the available videos relating to th the exhaust on the 4runner I've noticed so much difference in the sound as well as performance.
Thank you so much
Fawaz
Excellent video
Just traded my 2010 GX for a 2023 Caviar black interior and premium plus package and Levinson. I cannot get over how amazing it is. They perfected it with infotainment.
How has the truck been
Great video.
I own 2004 GX 470, still running strong 🎉
I just bought my first Lexus GX 460 brand new. It is a 2023 model. I love it so far and bought it for longevity.
Having driven my 2016 GX460 for years, never ever had any trouble, such a smooth silk-like drive experience, with the top reliability and big enough space and V8.
.
Killing the V8 may be the demise of the GX
You were pretty spot on your prediction for the new gx
Awesome Auto vlog! Presentation was excellent. I am a new subscriber to your channel. Greetings from Plano, Texas, United States.
Awesome! Thank you!
I have an 03 GX470 and absolutely love it bulletproof 4.7 V8 actually is a good time to get one because of gas prices. Not as overpriced as it was due to the overlanding tax.
How is it a good time? Gas prices might rise more than now
@@genieofdalamp because ppl are either selling there rides for fuel efficient cars right now even brand new suv’s are the only areas right now you can buy below msrp
great review. I have an order in for a black executive 22 GX, I hope I get it soon. I put it in on April 10, i was going to go for an LX but the V6 TT killed it. I want my reliable V8.
Current car is a 2004 Lexus GX 300,000 KM.
BTW the placement of the radio controls is so you can adjust the radio easily while resting your hand on the gear shift (how most people drive)
I am with you and the gx460
I have a 2012 and love it.
Great review!
Glad you enjoyed it
I own a '22 and absolutely love it. Black with the red interior. First brand new car i've ever owned.
Probably last one as well, i saw a guy with 440 000 miles and it still running like new!
I had the 2018 GX “Premium” and it had so many of the attributes mentioned in this vid though now you get the added bonus of updated technology. I never had a single issue with it. I now have the LX570 (which has also been issue free thus far) and am glad to have gotten it before the LX600 came out - I just can’t bring myself to a V6 after 40+ years of owning V8s. I think if I had gotten the “Luxury” version of the GX I would still be driving it today. It had some nice extras and really didn’t cost much more. I agree that now is the time get one of these if you appreciate beautiful build quality and reliability,not to mention very high resale value.
Bought one for my wife in November.... it currently has 130 miles on it!
I enjoy your reviews
I appreciate that!
Hello David, we just picked up our 2022 GX 460. We love it and intend on keeping it 10-15 years.
i paid 69500 for my 2022 gx 460 luxury, how much you paid?
@@dengzheng1867 Is that price before tax?
@@haduong5828 yes
It's really amazing that Lexus sells 25,000 GX 460 in the US every year considering the MSRP and the fact that the vehicle is so reliable. It's such a constant vehicle.
Hi David! Thanks for the great review, any thoughts when will the Tundra TRD PRO and other Hybrid tundras will hit the dealers lot??
So David I ordered a new 2023 GX 460 Blackline edition in Nuri Green. I am hoping a can get a leather interior and not the fux leather interior. Thank you for your help and information it was a great help. Also Amd helped with his diagnostic expertise. You guys are great.
Respectfully
Louie DeBenedictis. PS Might see it in late winter 2023.
Great review I bought a new 22 model in premium plus trim and also I think the mpg is not bad. If you use recommended fuel and drive within eco range it is fine. I got mine with captains chairs and ML , still exploring lot of the features on it
@King Kong we have only done limited highway driving but last time it was around 20-21
It's 1 MPG worse than a 4Runner.
@@ethandavis204 yes not much different for eg since last refuel nearly 3 weeks back only driving in city and already covered 256 miles still fuel gauge showing slightly more than 1/4 tanks remaining
Just bought used 2019 GX with captain chairs but no ML sounds. You said keep driving it in ECO range. Does it mean to set it in ECO mode and will it feel less power? How much mpg if it helps by using this mode?
@@ethandavis204 4 runner used regular gas
We love our 22 GX. It’s fairly smooth and quiet vehicle. Not as smooth as the LX, but still great. Our 4 year old daughter wants to drive it when she’s older.
what kind of mpgs are you getting thus far??
@@LexusGX460-OFF-ROAD between 14-15 mpg for city. I haven’t driven on the highway much.
This! I own a 15 LX and it’s silky smooth! Test driven multiple GXs along with 5th Gen 4runners for my wife but nothing comes close to the LX. In the end, we ended up with a 4runner for my wife mainly because of cost, cost to maintain, and cost to keep it running(regular vs premium gas). However, our next car later down the road will be the last LX V8.
Just bought the 2022 GX our first and love it. Have owned many other Lexus Suvs in the past. This is by far the best overall.
Good video.
David, Keep up with great work!!! I was debating between 4runner/GX. I decided to buy the GX because of V8 engine. I want to wait to the end of this year and buy one. Maybe the price might go down a bit. But I could not wait any more. So I just got my 2023 GX White/Sepia with Sport Design Package with Premium Plus and Captain's Chairs. (a gift for my Birthday) The dealer offered a great deal that I could not resist. And If I wait longer, I might not get the color/interior color that I want.
We just bought a 23 GX Starlight Pearl with Roya Red interior in the Premium Plus Package. We love it and moved up from a 21 RX350.
Thank you David. I just bought a 2023 GX 460 because of your reviews. I don’t like driving that much but with the GX, I find myself looking forward to my next drive. This thing is so fun to drive.
Same here!!. Since I got my 22 GX, I started driving more than ever before. It’s a fun vehicle to drive!!!
I feel the same way too!
🤣🤣🤣I'm glad 😊 I bought my wife one I just watched u r video now I really can sleep at night knowing I made the right choice thank you 🙏🏼
Your video reviews are always spot on:)! Thank you for the great work! I currently own a 2019 GX 460 with less than 22,000 miles bought new! I ordered a 2022 GX 460 last October. My order was canceled by Lexus because of supply issues. In February my local dealership pitched selling me a 2020 GX 460 with 30,000 miles with a $10,000 mark up over a 2022 GX 460. My point is...good luck on finding a 2022 GX 460 without a healthy mark up. They are excellent vehicles for sure. But, the dealer mark up is a major turn off! By the way I'm keeping my current 2019 GX 460 till the wheels fall off or these rediculous up charges stop!
In Dallas they go for sticker.
I only had to pay for 5 year windshield warranty $1500 which isn't that bad anyway
I bought mine couple of months ago for msrp. Last i heard, Lexus banned/banning the markups
So id suggest to call Lexus Corp and tell them that one of their dealers doing shady business
Just landed one at MSRP, but they only sell to local buyers.
Now is the time! I just bought a 2023 GX with premium plus for $10k off sticker in Massachusetts! They’re trying to clear them before the new year.
Firs car review which done by Jackie Chan ☺ by the way stunning car with amazing built quality and epic review 👌
Thank you very much
Hello David, thanks for proving me correct with my decision. Bought a new gx460 last week. It was worried about the suspension and alignment when it hits pot holes or bumps and rail roads or uneven roads, especially at high speeds. Can you let me know about that coz I had issues with my other cars and suvs. Thank you David.
My 11 GS 350 AWD was built in Tahara. Very high quality.
The swing out rear door and the oversized front grill are negatives for sure - however, I took the plunge and bought one anyway and I can say that I’m very glad I did - solidly built; quiet, luxurious interior; smooth powertrain - no turbos or other nonsense; new infotainment stack (something we never got with in the 200 series Land Cruiser before it was discontinued); and reasonable price. Like many Toyota product purchases, initially you need to make compromises but that purchase decision looks better and better as the years pass. I traded in a 4Runner to buy this - had the 4Runner for 3 years and it had zero problems - and I mean absolutely zero, both inside and out. Quality indeed….
The tailgate opens like a door because in other markets the spare tire is often mounted on the tailgate to allow for auxiliary fuel capacity below.
@@rightlanehog3151 understood, and that works great if you want to spend the additional cash to have a spare tire mount attached to the rear door and the spare fuel tank added underneath the vehicle. I would absolutely do this IF Toyota offered this package here in the US - as they don’t I have to go aftermarket and a lot of folks won’t do that.
@@CeeJay591 As I understand it, the GX/Prado has a fuel capacity of over 40 US gallons when equipped with the tailgate mounted spare.
@@rightlanehog3151 Couple that with a V8 that is not as thirsty as the Land Cruiser 200 series as you have an offroad rig that can go far from the beaten path.
agree love the GX460 quality 👌
Currently have a 2012 Toyota 4 Runner but I always wanted something a little more luxury! I know this is not the SUV with all the frills but LEXUS is the same as TOYOTA. They are the BEST cars to buy that will keep you OUT of the auto body shop! I only get the filters replaced, oil changed, tire rotation and new tires (WHEN Needed) and new battery (WHEN needed).
My next vehicle will hopefully be the LEXUS GX 460!! This is a GREAT Review, this man knows his stuff!
I have a 2011, it looks like new and I enjoy driving it!
I agree with you. I didn’t want a V6 so I bought a ‘23 GX460 Premium+ on Monday.
How is the truck
@@erickonassis6310 It’s great. A bit small compared to what I’m used to but it’s great.
Excellent review and spot on! The GX is the best vehicle I have owned.
Absolutely. Did you know that the rate of unemployment has increased drastically since the pandemic. We need to create multiple streams of income and not depend only on monthly wages.
True! I invest in stocks, Forex, bitcoins and Ethereum and property and I'm making good profits from them all.
If you don't find a means of multiplying your money, you will wake up one day to realise that the money you thought you had, has exhausted. Investment is a ladder to climb the financial wall.
I had interest in forex/crypto currency investments but I was discouraged after I lost over $50,000 doing that on my own😔. Are there any recommendations you could give me?
Forex trading/crypto investments is really profitable, now is the best time to take advantage of the market and earn a lot. And of course to do that you need the help of a professional.
David, The QDR and capability this GX offers will never be outdated. Having said that, I don't need my Prado to be so fancy. When I see the range of Prados sold everywhere except Canada and the USA, I know there is a Prado out there just right for my needs . David, you already know my favourite Prado is the 2 door Sumo with the 2.7 engine so I won't repeat that again😉
Yes yes I love that 2-door Prado too!
@@AutomotivePress 😁😁
well why don't you go buy a Prado instead of a GX. Waste your money on a Prado. Even though you could buy a Lexus GX for less money.
I'm happy with my 05 GX. Had it 8 years, and feel like I will have it easily another 8 years and beyond. I'll probably be in the market for a new GX in 5-8 years.
I love my 2019 gx460 amazing vehicle love the ability to cross between hard offloading and city daily.... well on my way to that 1 million mile mark!
You drive too much.
2013 GX 460 with 122k miles, I still love my GX!
I love the GX 460's. I've been a fan for about 5 years. I wish that the 2022 had a 2013 grill because I never cared for the change stylistically. I'd love to go grab one in White with a black interior right now, but it's out of range for me. Perhaps I'll get lucky and find a used one in a year or two that some wealthy person felt they simply had to trade-in to obtain the newest version. Thank You for your review!
bulletproof beast! I never can break it, off orad and on road king 👑
Why are you trying to break it?
I have the 2015 GX Luxury with only 33,700 miles on board, and I love it. I don’t use it every day because I also have a 2019 Camry and a BMW 4 series.
I would definitely buy the 2022 if I decide to sell my 2015 GX.
Just picked up a new 2022 GX460. It’s fantastic. It is for my wife, meaning I now get her 2008 GX470 with 153k on it. Yay for me!
Key words and why you should listen to this guy with confidence “automotive engineer” I’m all ears.
I like that the gauges are still analog, we all need a little less screen time.
I have a 2004 GX- best car I’ve owned ever. I was going to get one a few years back but the front grill is not to my liking. Have to agree on all of your points. I was thinking about getting one before the redesign but that grill still disappoints a bit. Never had a problem with the rear door. I actually like it. If it wasn’t for the grill and gas mileage I would buy again. Let’s see after a few years the redesign.
I have a 21 LX570 and am not a big fan if the grill either. But it looks a lot better with a front license plate, particularly the longer European type (Of course you have to live in a state that doesn't require a state license plate for that).
I had a 2014 GX that I loved, and traded for 2014 LX sold by Mercedes dealer. The GX I traded was sold to out-of-state buyer sight unseen within hours of them listing it. I probably should have negotiated higher for the trade value, even the salesman was shocked. I did keep it clean and accessorized it well. I miss the glass hatch in the back but I prefer my LX now for the extra space and hydraulic suspension on all four wheels. Either way I miss that vehicle and there seem to be hundreds on the road here in FL.
i have a 15 GX and only thing I would trade that vehicle is for a LX or a 200 series LC.
Nice captains chairs
So enjoy you David, very impressive as always. Are there many aftermarket options for the GX? I.e., front bumpers, front / rear shocks (Bilstein for i.e.) - I am being lazy asking you and not looking it up. I wish the back gate lifted but who doesn't. Thank you again
Yes there are some, but not too many to choose from...
Would you recommend getting the Premium + package with only DAC or trying to find a Luxury with the MTS/Crawi control. I currently have a 4Runner ORP. And can you later add ARB lockers if desired. Thank you in advance very much for your input as well as a great video.
We love our 22 GX 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
I love my 2004 GX, too. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Great video David. Much appreciated. I’m on the waiting list for a 2022 premium plus. I also believe this will be the last year of the V8. Thanks for solidifying my decision and pointing out all the “important” reasons why a person buys a GX460.
I would much rather own a vehicle that is virtually maintenance free than one that has a V6 and fancy lights and switches that has to be replaced in 5 years.
Make sure you have the Mark Levinson on your trim. It worth the cost.
@@JoeGX460 thanks Joe. I told my sales guy I wouldn’t take one without it. Car karaoke you know?!
Do you recommend the Secondary Air Injection Pump Mod? Also can you tell me which roof rails and crossbars you have installed?
I am 100% sure this is the best bang for the buck suv.
