Default New Guy Here

Just wanted to drop in and say hello. Former Lexus owner & looking to get back in the club!
Been looking at used GX 470's for some time so I figured I would sign up.
Great site & plenty of helpful info.

Welcome aboard, new guy. Get cracking and buy a GX!

If you're looking for a luxury liner SUV, the GX rates highly here and on consumer reports. My only gripes (and they're modest gripes) are the lack of push button start and ac seats, unlike many of the other autos in Lexus' lineup that have them. MPG is borderline offensive in comparison to the tiny, under-powered modern sport utes and sedans, but the trade off is a great sounding V8. For a two and a half ton suv, acceleration is ok but it handles like a boat. A big boat.
