Default Just Got a New To Me 06 GX 470

I am soo excited. My wife must love me to get me such a sweet truck. I am coming from a Honda Odyssey EX-L Navi with leather. There is no comparison, the GX blows it away. I have already towed a trailer and taken a small trip with it. I hoe to have it for many years. Any tips or tricks for a new owner? I am missing any extra keys and the third row middle headrest.

Congrats!

Int / ext color?

We like the integrated Vaistech XM unit and would like to add their iPod unit one day, too. If you've got the navi / levinson, I highly recommend that you check it out!

Welcome to CL, GX is a wonderful truck, good to hear all in teh family have begun to like it. Keep Discovering, there are lots of hidden things. Go through this forum to know the intracacies. Look after it and do the periodic maitnenance, GX does last well for a long time. The Third row middle seat is positioned at the rear of the Second row Seat pouch.
Enjoy !

I think the third row head rest is found inside the back of one of the third row seats?

I have the VAIS SL2Vi iPod video adapter from my GX470 that I traded in a few weeks ago.

I will post in the classifieds later this week, or you can PM me if interested.

Pearl White with Tan interior Navi and Mark Levinson with rear entertainment and hitch installed. I would like to the the vasitech ipod thing to watch video in the Navi. The price kind of sucks though

White makes for a sharp looking GX - I think Boyah has one and posted some good looking pics in some other GX threads.
