So glad to see you posting again Brooks! What a wonderful SUV for your Mother to drive! Sorry to hear about the hail damage on the previous one! As you said this new one will bring miles and miles of pleasurable driving! That’s unfortunate but still great news! Hope you and your Family are all doing well! I am still! I really appreciate you and your channel! With full respect always Brooks! Mark in Iowa. Have a Blessed weekend! Mark.
The timing is amazing. Back in 2014-2015 I commented on one of your videos about how I planned to grab a facelifted GX 460 and was grateful for your extensive review of it. That ended up becoming a reality in 2017. Fast forward to today, new job, new budget, and the GX 460's had a substantial upgrade to its creature comforts. My current 460 is banged up in a few ways, and has some unpleasant memories attached, but I still adore the bodystyle, dimensions and features of the GX more than anything else. We're not going to be getting another generation of GX where I live. The 2023 460 is the last of the line. So I've decided to pull the trigger on a fully loaded 2023 460, very similar to your mum's. Same paint, maybe a similar interior.
@@brorowcarwizThank you! It's still a bit to go yet before I can finalise the purchase, and truth be told I don't know if the one I want will still be available when the time comes, but I'm gonna do my best to grab that car.
Sorry to hear about the 2015 GX but congratulations on the new 2023 GX! I’ve been a big fan of this generation GX as well throughout the many years it’s been in production. I thought it was awesome when they added the new infotainment system with CarPlay to this generation GX. I wish they would’ve added CarPlay to the 2016-2021 Lexus LX. The 2024 GX looks really nice but I really wish they would’ve kept the V8 as an option but I knew it was going to be gone on the new gen. Congrats again to your mom on the new GX! Beautiful truck!
Nice! Stinks about the 2015. Mom drives a 2018 GX, and we love it! I like the black wheels on the 2020 but my mom doesn’t. I honestly like these better I think too than they new model, but would welcome the better gas mileage. Although the v8 isn’t that bad on the highway. I wished Lexus would have added the surround cameras on these cars as standard. Even cheaper Nissan Sentras have had that feature for going on 10 years. But love Toyota nonetheless.
@@brorowcarwiz Brooks, on the 2020 and newer GX, at night does the parking lights turn on when unlocking the car? All of our other Lexus cars (GS, ES, LS, and RX’s) since 2013 have had that feature. I like how it lights up a dark parking lot. Was bummed when we got our 2015 GX460 and it didn’t have that feature. :/
What a great truck, last of the breed there! Last of the old school v8 midsize luxury body on frame suv! The 24 is nice but it doesnt have the same appeal as these do!

Nice looking GX! I'm trying to find a white one (with same interior color) with those same silver upgraded wheels, but very hard to find, all of them to date appear to be dark in color. Curious where you picked this one up.
*it is beautiful.. the GX460 will take you anywhere* 😃

Agreed on the camera’s - I’m sure that will change with the new model. You can get them on the Luxury package, but that was going to add on some $$$.

2023 Lexus GX460, 135 miles
If only there was two 2023 GX460's in the family!
@ kristen
What a major upgrade
Fantastic video!!
This truck is a nice jump from the old one even if the seats aren't real leather, sad to hear that the old one was gone.
The old one had NuLuxe as well!
@@brorowcarwiz How come was the truck bought in Georgia instead of Colorado where your mom lives?
@@Daconthocon78 probally becuase of the thangsgiving startups
Congratulations on the new GX I knew your mom would get another one since she had the forerunner before the GX. How are the wrangler and RAV4 doing?

Thanks! This GX came from Butler Lexus in Macon, GA.
That is too funny, I've been corresponding with same dealership.@@brorowcarwiz
