The truck is black with sepia interior. I got the Premium package with a few other extras that typically come standard with a Premium build including BSM & Park Assist.

There is no tow hitch, so I bought a Curt Hitch Curt Hitch that I will mount myself (probably tomorrow). I also bought a Go Rhino hitch step Go Rhino hitch step that I have used on my 4Runner & I love for both protection & functionality. I will upload pictures of those once I install both accessories.

Yeah, I know the back is dirty. We have had rain off & on here in Atlanta and this was the one clear day I had to take pics & I didn't get around to washing it properly.

IT looks great!! I don't think I have seen Sepia in person. Most are either black or ecru interior. What part of Atlanta area do you live?

I'm in Smyrna. I got the truck at Nalley out here. I absolutely love the Sepia interior. When I got into an Ecru on the lot, it already had smudges on the interior (it's basically white). And while I think the black interior looks cool, you know how Atlanta summers can be, plus, black shows up every bit of dust & lint.

I got mine at Nalley Galleria last year. I am in Alpharetta. They only had one on the lot which I got. Ecru is nice but can get dirty in no time though it looks good. Sepia is unique. Maybe I will stop by Lexus in Roswell if I am in the area and check out a sepia if they have any.

Is this a Georgia only thread? , I'm in...

I have black on ecru and love the classy looking contrast.
That being said, ecru is a PITA. I would be better off with the sepia with this being my work truck. The silver painted interior that scratches easily is another problem for me

Long term ownership of the ecru...I bought my 2011 from an owner that leased it for 2 years. The drivers side seat was a bit colour worn so I had a professional spray/dye it. The seat is looking worn again recently (leather was standard on my 2011).
My seatbelt straps were filthy and I haven't been able to fully restore them. I would recommend useing Scotchguard on the straps.

Nice looking GX CAWjr.

Johns Creek/Alpharetta here.

I've seen your truck tecman (not around town, just here) and it certainly looks like you get some good use out of it. Glad to hear that my thoughts about long term use on the ecru was valid.

BTW...we traded in my wife's '08 MDX on the GX & I could not be happier to be rid of that thing. It even swore her off of Acura & hopefully has finally made her a loyal Toyota/Lexus person...though she still likes Infiniti.

IT seems like this is just a GA thread LOL. I have a base silver with black and with nuluxe, no wrinkles at all after 14 months and 7600 miles. Now u can get a base with sepia nuluxe. Tecman, you are in Johns Creek/Alpharetta so near Peachtree Pkwy :-), Now I wish I had sprung for the premium but at that time looking for one without nav.

Last Friday at Windward Tavern (you might know where it is Tecman), saw a jacked up GX with off road tires and a huge airscoop. It had Prado badging throughout. Looked different for sure.

Jacket

Was it a white one with black bed liner on the fenders? I know there's a guy in the ATL area that has an older GX pretty heavily modded.

Jacket,
U are right. It was white and had black fender flares. Didn't realize it was a bedliner.
Merry xmas

I have a '15 with Sepia interior and it is holding up REALLY well for 1 year already....no marks, no stains,....nothing yet.

I love to see pics of the Curt hitch and Go Rhino hitch step. Thanks.
