Default Finally Joined the Club

Hey Yall, I am proud to say that I am finally part of the Club. Last week I pulled the trigger on my Black Beauty. She's a 2005 GX with 106,000 miles I paid $16,100 before taxes. Im only the 2nd owner, the first was a suburban soccer mom that never towed or drove off road a day in her life. I could not be more happy with this truck.

I have black WeatherTech mats on the way, including a cargo liner (gotta have it for the dog). My next move will probably be either a Yakima Load Warrior basket or getting and AUX cord installed (any suggestions on this would be awesome).

Hopefully, in the near future, ill be able to throw some all-terrains on her I was thinking BFGs, but again, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Glad to be here and join the Club!

Welcome. Look around here for other people's experiences with all the upgrades you mention. You might find some surprises and definitely don't have to go into uncharted waters. Personally, I don't like my weathertech mats because they don't fit very well and the tan doesn't match the lexus tan interior (not a problem for you). Also, I bought the Yakima MegaWarrior and now it sits in the garage: too tall, and just kind of ugly on the GX. Baja racks, Front Runner and other more expensive and less generic racks are better suited specifically for our GX. Search for posts on Grom and VaisTech for in-car-entertainment upgrades. You'll also find a variety of opinions on all-terrains as it seems the old stand-by BFGs aren't the only game in town any more.
