@@beegees333 I just looked it up. Pretty cool build, though I was trying to imagine it with painted fenders. I think having paint on them is still preferable for my taste, though I definitely understand if they're more designed to avoid scratches along a narrow trail.

Appreciate the fact you dropped the premium trim version first! Even though I’m sure very few will hit lots bare bones it’s nice to see what the least expensive version is like. I have to say I’m impressed! Now just to see what the Land Cruiser trim is like by comparison!
Nice price 63k very affordable for what you get. The 3rd row seat is almost identical to the set up in my 5gen SR5. Might be better to get a 550 Premium over an LC250 at the price point.
I think you might want to go look at the new generation Sequoia 3.4TT hybrid reviews. The Sequoia is not getting good MPG. Instead, the hybrid is helping provide robust power. And most wish the Sequoia didn't have the hybrid tech because the battery in the rear screws up the cargo area. This GX with a non-hybrid 3.4TT is the configuration many Sequoia owners wish that they could get.
Great review as always. Have you been able to find out from anyone at Lexus why they aren't offering a 3 row option on the Overtrail trims, and if they might offer that option in the future? I fully understand the marketing behind the off-road centric overtrail version, but I feel Lexus made a short-sighted decision on this. Many of us have larger families and also want the ekdss, etc capability. And if you notice, the 3rd row cupholders are still included in the 2 row overtrail lol. What gives?
incredible value. So many vehicles are in the $60's now, including Wranglers. Heated and ventilated seats? a sunroof? 20''s? running boards? 10 speakers? Going to be hard to justify the higher trims...
These prices are becoming unsustainable, especially with the current interest rates. Soon the avg new vehicle will avg 70K. We’re already pushing 50K avg. midsize trucks are hitting 50s and full-size trucks 60-80K. Get ready for 08’ all over again.
Yes it will. Cost over everything has risen. So we have to raise ourselves as well to overcome and be the best versions of ourselves we can to combat it.
So how was the leg room in the 3rd row. You mentioned it was a bit tough in and out for adults. But can someone sit back there for a short trip? Thanks
Thank you. It does sound good but I think my JBL with the amp sounds better. In all fairness it was XM radio on the GX and that never sounds the highest quality.
I like it. But I would wait 3-4yrs to buy a new one. I would also be interested to see what the hybrid option would be. I would also have a hard time deciding between a 7seater GX and the Overland model because of the extra off-road tech. I am happy with a proven ‘23 GX I purchased though.
I have a 06 4Runner which I love. I’m going to the GX. Need it quieter and more comfortable for roadtrips. My 4Runner is noisy and sways all over the place. I love it though. 250k miles with very few issues.
Hey Jon, I'm a huge fan and want to thank you for all the contents. Educational and entertaining. Just my thoughts: I hope you avoid the use of the phrase " peasants blocker." Not all your viewers are from the upper class or wealthy few. I kind of feel it's insulting or demeaning.
I'm not wealthy and I'm not offended. It's meant to be a funny term that actually makes fun of people who own these expensive luxury cars and how they might like to use the sun blockers to also block their view of less wealthy people around them. Have a sense of humor and stop looking to be the victim. Cheers :)
I’m sorry you felt that way man from that. I’ve always called them that. Many people find it funny. We all wanna work hard for what we want in life and this vehicle is definitely that. It’s clearly a joke. Same with the joke of blank switches in vehicles being the “poverty spec”. We all joke brother. No bad intentions with it at all. Thank you for your support! I truly appreciate you.
Not super important, but at 2:30, that is not a tow hitch. That is a hitch receiver. A hitch, which is what a ball mounts to, is what slots into the receiver.
Love your videos but definitely not going to take any advice on your audio recommendations after the beat Sonic video. Must have been paid because that s*** was trash. I installed it myself😂🤡
I love the look but I’m trying to figure out if it’s better to get a forerunner limited or this GX 550 because I put about 50,000 miles a year on my car so comfort and ride quality are the most important thing between the two. ANY OPINIONS?
Comfort, Noise Vibration Harshness (NVH), and ride quality will always be better in a Lexus product versus a lower-end Toyota product. That is how they are designed and built.
At Westside Lexus in Houston are making you get the cold weather package and traffic assistance package on the premium GX. Bringing the price to almost 67k. Are any other dealers requiring this. Thanks in advance
They aren't "making" you get anything. Lexus specs the vehicles & then allocates them to dealers. Dealers do not get the option to change FIO (factory installed options like the ones you mentioned) once the vehicle has been allocated.
@@sawyermartin4434 So Lexus needs to take the option to build off the website. Because you can build it without the features. But dealers (Westside Lexus) say it can't be done.
@baltimorejae7397 No, they don't. Just like Toyota, Lexus has a build configurator on their website so that consumers can see what options exist & narrow down what they want. But ultimately the configurator just exists so that you can put in your information & a dealer can contact you. They can likely get what you want, there just aren't any in allocation presently & with no order process, they can't give you an accurate timeline as to how long it will take. If you're the patient type, you can typically give them a deposit so that you're first in line when the truck you're looking for becomes available through allocation.
That back seat is right up against the hatch and there is no rear bumper. That a rear end hit and I would hate to be the idiot in that very back seat. 63k for a big pile of shit.

Use your head. Common sense is rare these days I guess. These pre-production/press vehicles sit idling FOREVER, which is why the guesstimate range on the display always shows a very low number.
Get some all terrain tires for this base version and you will have all-weather capabilities better than most vehicles on the road today. The fact that this vehicle has synthetic leather shouldn't stray you away. Mercedes and BMW have been putting synthetic leather in their vehicles for years and those materials wear better than any leather can, and still feel premium 20 years later. If luxury and off-road capability are fighting for your money, this is way to go.
