We own a 2006 GX470. It serves it's purpose well as our weekend vehicle and family hauler. My other car is a 2002 Civic I've owned since new and it gets me to and from work. I'll probably upgrade to an Accord or something similar soon. I just wondered what other vehicles you guys own that compliment your GX.

Just sold my IS350 that my wife had been driving to put her in a '15 outback :-(

My personal other is a 1965 FJ40.

I drive the gx, and my wife drives a 2010 Prius. The 47-50 mpg she gets offsets the 12-13 mpg I get.

The GX is my wife's vehicle as well. I've got a '93 HDJ81 Land Cruiser and a '99 MB E55t AMG, both imported from Japan, both have around 88,000kms on them.

Thanks! I LOVE it! 4.2TD, factory winch, 3X diff locks, center console fridge, it's hands down my favorite vehicle I've ever had, and I'm keeping it forever. Just dripping with character.

We sort of have a black Lexus theme going on around here. The rx is next for some matching black wheels.

And this is for fun when time allows:

That LC is nice. I've said this before, but the only car I'd trade our GX in for is a Land Cruiser.

Nothnghead, so you're not happy with your 2015 Outback? Or is it just disappointing compared to your IS?
