The GX is a bargain. It's extremely comfortable to drive and it holds the road better than any SUV I've driven. It's quiet and comfortable yet it's powerful and agile. There's not a better deal out there. The car is very safe to drive. The cross traffic warning and large rear view camera come in handy when parking, backing up, and maneuvering in close spaces. This is my second GX and I have yet to experience a quality issue or have need of a repair. It's quiet and handles poor road conditions very well.

We've had this Lexus for around a year now and it's been great! Very reliable, and nice styling. We chose this over the 4Runner because of more luxury options and better exterior styling. I wish we had the second row captain's chairs, but that's only on higher trims. It's overall a very nice car. We've taken it on a long road trip and it was great. Rear entertainment is a great feature, too. You can't go wrong!

Long time car enthusiast here. Experience with everything from a Prelude Si to 911s and too many motorcycles to list. Additionally many off-road vehicles with a lot of time in 4Runners(still love a 4Runner). First the bad: not the latest greatest tech, so so fuel economy in town(16-17.5) on premium, rear door would be more useful with the lift tailgate vs side opening barn door, controls for ac/heat inconvenient to use in anything other than automatic mode. Now the good/great: Supreme confidence inspiring driving dynamics(this thing is a Moose), plenty of power if you throttle it, full time real 4WD, center locking differential, 21-22.5 mpg on long road trips, quietest vehicle I’ve ever experienced, comfortable all the time, utterly reliable, safety nannies work but many can be disengaged if desired, tows 6500 pounds but you’ll hardly notice the weight up to 5000, hydraulic body leveling system controls sway wonderfully(but can make hard braking seem more dramatic), excellent turning radius, surprising nimble for being so large, can climb truly intimidating mountain terrain. Has a way of just making you feel safe and secure all the time. The first long road trip we took in this car with the family made me love this vehicle. My wife turned to me during the trip and said it was like riding in first class vs economy. If you’re looking for a old school reliable luxury(ish) SUV this is as good as it gets. No vehicle is perfect. But this is a special car, if it meets your needs and can afford it. Loved all my time in 4Runners but this takes the best of all they have to offer and improves on it. Happy trails

Currently have 11,500 miles on it. Didn't ever have to use 3 year warranty, and have only taken in for service. Towed Airstream Bambi (19ft) with ease. Very comfortable ride, good on ice and snow. Overall, excellent car.

The Ultimate SUV

The GX is amazing! After two years of ownership, I continue to be pleased. Everything is great, and love the rear control A/C and heat, styling, and the feel and quietness of the drive. I do wish the rear camera was better, but that isn’t a big deal, it works. My only complaint is that I wish it gave more warning when low on fuel, seems to just pop up all the sudden. Everything looks and works great, no regrets here!
