Which SUV is better, the 2024 Lexus GX or TX?

I definitely like the GX model. It REALLY looks good. That’s a HUGE win for Lexus.

GX550. Perfection.

@teyewilliams2824 Месяц назад

good analysis David, i will prefer the Tx because I am not driving off road, but the GX looks cool in the design and the boxy nature of it.

@engtrax58 Месяц назад

Great comparison video David! Love watching your channel!

Glad you like them!

@ronn5592 Месяц назад

Thanks for amazing review. I prefer GX overall

@oskarkudla5584 Месяц назад

TX may be more useful, has more space for families and better ride, but so does a minivan. GX all the way. Can't wait for our to get here.

David, Given the choice between the GX or TX, I would definitely take the Grand Highlander with the base AWD Hybrid system and save at least $20,000 up front and then save on gas for the life of the vehicle 🤩 If I was shopping at the world famous Tahara Body-on-Frame Factory Outlet Store, I think the new Land Cruiser would be my top choice. 😉

@AnthonyWebb-mh1wv 6 дней назад

Very informative thank you for your analysis. I think I'm going to go with the GX model.

@alzakool Месяц назад

Very good comparison. I really wanted to hear your thought on GX550 Premium plus vs Overtrail. How much of a different on riding comfort both on road and off road between these two? How much more space will have of missing third row?etc. I love your youtube channel by the way. Thank you very much for doing this.

GX Overtrail+ : Completely different look 🤩🤩 Off-road capabilities Bigger engine

@looking511 Месяц назад

I would rather have the the TX

@billr8564 Месяц назад

Thanks for the excellent review and honest personal opinion. I appreciate it! How is the comfort of the seats between the 2 vehicles? What are the differences between each row for the 2 vehicles. My wife and I are in our 70s and suffer from arthritis. We are looking for a comfortable seating vehicle that also rides smoothly. I took from your comments that a smoother ride would be felt in the TX, but I don't want to assume. Thanks.

Hi David, hope you are well. I love your content. Keep up the good work. I’m interested in getting the LX 570, because I want to get that V8 engine. I’m curious to know, did Lexus remove any features from the 2021 or 2022 model years of the LX 570, due to the chip shortages, making it inferior in any way than its predecessors?

@natelove187 Месяц назад

Why don't Toyota just put the new 3.5 V6 without turbos and hybrid as an option for its Toyota and Lexus vehicles

@agame831 Месяц назад

What about the gx or the new 4 runner?

@jibilcmathew3906 Месяц назад

When you did your review of tx 350 5 months back you said the measurements are 2.9 mm and 3 mm . Then how it's 3.9mm and 3.8mm now? Curious to know about this. Thanks

@davet7184 Месяц назад

Thank you David! I saw someone else review the TX550H+ and it suggested that the Engine would kick on while in EV mode at high speeds. Did you experience this? My thought is to drive on the 407 using battery as at 120-130KM/h I would be using much more gas than in the city where the mileage is better using hybrid. If the engine kicks on at 120ish, it may not provide the results that I am hoping for. Your thoughts please?

@johnmeeboer8971 Месяц назад

I have a GX overland on order. I love the LX but don't like three rows, I only have my wife and dog to hull around. David, have you heard when the GX is going to be delivered in Canada?

@loudspeaker55 18 дней назад

The GX has a retractable running board, surprised this isn’t on the TX

@BsurfChillin Месяц назад

Do we have safety ratings, insurance cost ratings to compare?

@Sam9wilson9 Месяц назад

I just drove the gx460 and compared to TX same day at dealer. GGX 460 so much more comfortable than the TX; I was actually pretty surprised. Took the GX 60mph on a curved freeway on ramp and handled just fine 20mph over safe speed. Can’t compare to GX550 but 460 for the win for me 👍

@duckdogusa Месяц назад

Nice review, BUT wouldn’t it be more appropriate to compare the TX to the street version of the f new GX not the Overtrail????

@matw1x Месяц назад

The new GX looks beautiful. But this TX looks like it should've been a Toyota.

@steevyovan1592 Месяц назад

Would love to see a comparison between the outgoing GX and the new redesigned GX.

@youtubecarspottersguide1 Месяц назад

gx 550 overtail no 3rd row and opt to delete the moon roof

@Tigermeg816 Месяц назад

GX550 or TRD sequoia is what I’m considering.

@chrisb9478 Месяц назад

GX is a nice Land Cruiser. TX is a nice family Highlander.

What is that tool you use for quality check called?

Taper gauge!

@@AutomotivePress Thank you so much

@gianniclaud Месяц назад

I'm sorry, but the TX is probably the most boring design I've seen on any Lexus. GX all the way.

@michaeljenks6259 Месяц назад

I saw one in real life and I was surprised at how full it was. Aggressively boring.

@seikocitizenwatches Месяц назад

Definitely GX550 for me but if it was 10 years ago when my kids still in schools, I would choose the roomier TX. If anyone who can afford it GX & TX are perfectly his and hers.

@Bitcoin_Gold Месяц назад

Does GX come in Hybrid? i dont like Full EV.

@hondajacka2 Месяц назад

you have so many cars

@Olph1 Месяц назад

GX for me. Tx for the wife.

@thefilmpoets Месяц назад

TX with GX exterior.

@alengreen589 Месяц назад

or is it maybe better to buy the GH or the new Landcruiser or the 4 Runner? OH wait they are all nearly the same 😅

@garyclark6747 Месяц назад

I’ll take the GX next year if it comes with a plug-in hybrid and bost the most horsepower and the most torque of any variant. I know I won’t have a third row and that doesn’t bother me one little bit. I just want the best economy and the most towing capability and the most electric driving miles of any SUV that’s a plug-in hybrid. 14:47
