Default Hello! New member here

Recently puchased a 05 gx 128km(canadian vehicle) no nav ML. Besides the gas mileage I am really enjoying the vehicle. Get lots of compliments, confused looks and from older asian gentlemen lol(not too many gx's around here). I have worked for Toyota for over 7 years and have always wanted one. I have owned over 20 vehicles but plan on keeping this one for awhile. It will be going in next week for timing belt, water pump, thermostat seals and a new radiator. CL is a great forum with lots of knowledgeable members and usefull posts. Thanks to the forum I was able to get a better deal knowing about the radiator issues with these trucks. Thanks.

REPLAY1...welcome to the forum! I'm sure you'll find many of the posts made here to be informative. Looking forward to seeing you around.

Beautiful truck BTW. I've got the polar-opposite of yours, Blizzard Pearl w/ Tan int, but my GS 300 was Black on Black and I loved it...just not that fun to keep clean IMO.

No. A guy at work had them laying around, so I threw them in to see what they would look like. Almost a little too bright. Still undecided if I will keep them or not.
