LX570 Stress Test
LX is great taking on any stress that may be thrown its way. I wonder what has the most stress anyone has put on their LX. Please share your experience in detail. It will help others know what their LX is capable of.
To start, I'll share one of my experience. I towed over 6000lbs on my LX in rain for 19 hours (from VA to FL) and had no complains. Full details are on the following thread:

Looking forward to reading your experiences and finding out what my LX is capable of

I had my dad and my wife as my passengers. Dad is a scholar so he had a couple of books to read. I also kept an entire season of Sex and the city and Suits to keep the dear wife busy ;-).
Don't have kinds yet but looking forward to put a car seat in the LX in Aug 2019.

I drove it from Delaware to TX, 3 adults and 4 kids and 1 teenager. It was very a blast; I just wished the car was little bigger from inside. I didn't have a cargo box back in the day which would have helped a lot.
It was quite comfortable to drive and rain and shine it just pulled through.
I remember there was a crazy snowstorm here and where we live its right next to the canal we get a lot of wind drafts, the roads were closed / power lines down. The back road wasn't cleaned and its basically a wooded area but only way back to out house.
I took the chance , basically used the front camera to navigate because we coundlt see anything out of the front windsheild. I had a guy in the lifted ford f150 told me I am nuts who also wanted to go but didn't think his truck would make it.
The lx570 made it easily, this is with stock tires and low gear. That time I was sold on these cars, it was amazing.

Thanks. I just recently found out that there is something called 'baby moon'. Luckily, my wife is afraid of air travel and too sensitive to motion sickness right now. So no baby moon. I am however, expected to go above and beyond for the upcoming valentines day

I took my LX to this trail. My LX is all stock - No mods except Window Visor and a cell phone reception booster. This trail was great fun. Took me 2 hours to complete the trail and saw a lot of Jeeps and ATV's on the trail. I was the only one on such size of vehicle and everyone looked at me like I was crazy. But it was great fun and I intend to do it again.
