How to link keys with memory seats
We have set the seat positions for both 1 and 2. How do you make it so when you unlock the car with key "A," it recalls seat position 1, and when you unlock the car with key "B," it recalls seat position 2?

The memory seats in the GX don't communicate with the key fobs. You have to change the settings after you get in and turn the vehicle on. I really wish it did though, I had that feature on my Corvette and it is very nice and convienent to have individualized key fobs with individual settings.
Another thing I have found out is the memory buttons only work when stopped and in Park.
Another annoying thing about the memory seats in the GX is if you need to adjust a setting, you can't save on the fly, you have to stop first and put the shifter in Park, which by that time I usually forget to resave, another feature I was used to in the Corvette.
As nice as the GX is inside, I think some things weren't as thought out as they could have been. For example, the placement of the window switches. I feel the switches are arrainged too far forward. When I go to open or close the front windows and try to do this without looking, I always end up hitting the rear window switches. Or the wimpy arm rests. I'm also a little dissappointed with the lack of storage space, especially when equipped with the DVD player.
Don't get me wrong I like my GX, I just thought that some interior items were not very well thought out.

I wish there was more storage in the back for the ball hitch and wiring connector. Mine is in a canvas bag, but it's still in the way. If I take it out and put it in the garage, I'm sure I'll never find them again!!!

EZ PASS
I do have the Fla version of EZ PASS, called SunPass, but it does not work in every toll system in Florida, thus the need to keep a few back-up coins laying around. Guess we'll just have to wait the extra 30 seconds in the change lane!!!!

When you guys open up your rear windows, does it have a sound like the windows are loose and kind of move from one side to the other when you touch them? I just noticed that this summer when I started opening up my windows.
