Default GX470 - Soledad

I've christened my GX Soledad. It's for the solitude it will afford me by getting away into the mountains and miles away from civilization.





I have plans to make it more off-road worthy but it will be a slow build.

Default Very Nice!

Good choice! I think you bought a pick of the litter with the exterior/interior schemes.
Iv'e had my '05 for 6 months and still get chills driving it because it's my first luxury vehicle and first true 4x4.
I have plenty of time to plan out my mods before I can afford to make a creation of my own!
Good luck on your GX. Congrats!

Have a 2006 GX in the same colors. Have had for 10+ years (since it was new) and have loved it. Just never found a good reason to sell it to get something else. Great vehicle.

Good looking truck. When you are ready to do some off road mods the guys at Slee Off Road in Golden are worth talking to. Also RCI Metal Works in Fort Collins make great aftermarket skid plates. Have fun!

Thanks for the compliments. My plans are to get new tires (265/70R17) then sliders and hit some of the local trails. I didn't realize that RCI was in Fort Collins. I'm all for supporting local businesses.

Default PFran interior LEDs

I installed the PFran interior LED set. The difference is amazing.






I mostly wanted the cargo area brighter, but I'm glad I did the overheads and doors.
