CR is full of BS

Why I think you GX owners should be concerned is that, with a NO BUY label even for a short time, the resale or even trade in value will greatly diminish, even if you trade it back to Lexus, as there will be a lot less consumers looking to purchase the car strictly based on CR's one time NO BUY BS TEST! you really think there will be a 2011 GX? LOL

Based on what I read the CR testers do not share notes while testing o.k., but what if all the scores for the GX460 were high and the only issue was the VSC kicking in late?
CR stated they would re-evaluate the GX460 after Lexus made corrections.
Suppose after the fix CR gave the GX460 a recommended buy?
What a coup that would be for Lexus!!!
I own a GX 460 and the final outcome I propose would not surprise me I test drove every luxury SUV availible and the GX460 was the best all around, all things considered...I truly believe if this stability thing had not occured that would have been their findings because its true.
Don't be too surprised, a recommended buy after the correction would be a win,win, win.
CR wins,Lexus wins and the owners/consumer wins.
CR's credabilty is beginning to take some heat (justified or not) in all this.
You heard it here first.

Mike450h,
Do you have any evidence, facts, or test results to show that it is BS? CR does!
BTW, if a NO BUY recommendation was put on Toyota's with the run away acceleration problem several years ago there would be 30 or 40 people who may not have been killed in their Toyotas.

Again.....Take any SUV drive it in a strait line at 55 mph on dry pavement, than suddenly turn right, at speed..
To test results here, just plain old common sense!
