Reminds me of the 70's in New England, when people cared about others and went out on their broncos and blazers pulling, plowing and shoveling folks that inevitably got themselves into life threatening trouble, that said, best wishes in all you guys do, faith in humanity restored!!!

People always complaining about the Toyota/Lexus infotainment is dinosaur age (Dated) I would rather drive a boring reliable cars Toyota/Lexus than driving a fancy (infotainment) console vehicles that always in the mechanics shop for repairs. Fancy infotainment really keep them busy while waiting for a tow truck for their broken @śš vehicle in the side of the road. 😂

As a fellow GX470 owner, I must say it combines a lot of things for me, ergonomics (nice comfort) and off road capabilities. One of the reasons I bought this SUV, was the side opening door. It helps, if you carry stuff on the roof.

Agree on everything except the seats. I’m 6 foot and 235 lbs and I find the seats to accommodate me very well. The arms rest do feel out of place. I usually use the passenger side arm rest and lift the driver side.

Great video! Indeed I have wanted a 4Runner for quite some time. But she I found the GX470 I was sold. Similar in several ways but definitely stands apart. I also love the look how it stands apart as a extremely capable off-road vehicle. In all the GX videos I’ve watch that’s one point I have not heard made!

This is awesome man. I use to love doing this stuff in my P38 RR. Then I was the one needing to be rescued when she was sitting on the bump stops and or the fuel pump going out at stoplight. I'm in the Market to get a 19 GX460 right now. I do like the older ones though. I think the older ones are better if you really plan on doing alot of off-road/snow mods which I'm not. In Missouri were I live we are actually getting less snow each winter then ever before. Nowadays we get 1 snow storm a year at best. The rest of the winter it's mostly mild and rainy.

I did the same here in Dallas! Pulled three vehicles out and never had an issue with traction. What I didn’t foresee was becoming the designated driver for family, friends, and neighbors. It’s a 2019 GX so I hadn’t really had the chance to put it through the hoops until snowmeggedon.

Nice job , your remarks about the side opening rear are fresh . All reviews take a negative view of it , you’re right , I love the access it gives me (2017 GX ) and ha, I’m tired of smashing my head on my 89 pathfinder top dropping rear door . They always die in the cold . Do believe those tires are perfect for your excursions but feel thinner are better in the snow ? Amazing effort put out in those winter drives . I’m hoping slowly to custom my GX , it’s tough in Canada
@LoganKingMedia
@LoganKingMedia 3 года назад
Thank you! my old pathfinder rear door would also fall on my head haha - I like my beefy tires in the snow when I air them down they float on top of the snow which is helpful, but yes I have heard thinner tires are better but so is a lighter vehicle.

I have a 2006 Lexus GX470.. only mechanical issue is that the air ride suspension went out. We replaced it with regular shocks for about $600. Fuel economy with 265/70/17 tires is about 15mpg. ATRAC system is perfect for Big Bear winters.. Cons: middle console, Nav system (horrible), third row seats and the CD video player system. We have about 225,000 miles on it and I would definitely drive it to the North Slope in AK tomorrow if I had to .it is super reliable.
