Actually, what's scary is both vehicles were involved in rollovers. Why? What happened? Did these vehicles get the software updates on the stability control? What the heck happened?

Just because people have the money for a 70K+ vehicle, doesn't mean they'll necessarily spend <1k$ on driving lessons

And money won't buy you common sense either.

And to think, some lucky guy in some foreign country will probably end up buying one of these, fixing it, and putting it back on the road. Lucky guy

Not surprising, with the recent heavy winter storms all over the state that created dangerous road condition, there have been tons of accidents.
Hopefully with GX's safety features, that two drivers and or occupants could survive without serious injury.

Actually there is a lot more in the summer months. I have a friend that works as a insurance adjuster, and he seen lots. It seems that the major reason why this happens is people thinking and driving their SUV/SAV like sports are sports cars.
In the end we all wind up paying, cause it causes the insurance rates to go up for everyone.

Mats look like they're already gone, but not the shift ****. Interesting. Would've thought that everything that could be missing would be missing by the time it hits that lot.

Wow! seems like it held up pretty well (the roof I mean!) for such a HEAVY vehicle. I'm now seriously thinking of considering this vehicle to replace my aging, but still "bulletproof", LS 400

I have this obsession to feel invincible on the roads (because of all the idiots that are allowed to DRIVE in this country), and I've been so enamored by the WEIGHT of the GX 460 - 5340 whopping pounds!! (this is one of main reasons I'm SERIOUSLY considering it). Imagine it is 5340lbs and is still rated 15 city / 20 hwy!!

However, I was a bit concerned that this same weight might be a disadvantage when it came to rollovers - but now I'm quite impressed!

Yeah, I saw that one too. What the heck happened? Looks like a bulldozer crunched it.
