magnaride and air shocks sounds like an impressive combo... for a HUGE price.

any one of you here got one of these? after owning a LX? At times I wished LX has more space and my kids are getting bigger... I rented a suburban for a week and it was surprising easy to drive the more space was appreciated.

Same guy: Land Cruiser=good, I like how it is old school. LX (same thing but with flagship Lexus luxury and cachet for 5k more) =dogs***t waste of money.

we don't need to make this about doug, but i have no issue with the example you gave. the land cruiser is a toyota and old school is ok, like 4runner as well. for a flagship suv for a luxury brand, the lx is WOEFULLY behind all its competition - a dinosaur wrapped in leather. sure it's a reliable tank but it's simply no longer competitive at all.
I could list plenty more examples of why I don't think Doug is legit at all but don't want to veer OT.
I'm interested in an Escalade road test, where the hell is it? Or a Denali one.

Sequoia takes the cake, hasn't been major update since 2008. They made a slight refresh in 2018. The TRD pro sequoia sells at MRSP of 65k, basically hard to find, same with 4runners folks like them a lot. Even they are Dinos- The LX has 2 minor updates and 1 mid where they changed the body, The new purchase isn't as dumb as you think for a LX, people usually buy these cars to keep them for a while.
I don't want to get into yet ANOTHER LX discussion, but plenty of people buy these because they know nothing else will come close in reliability. Plenty of people are fine with the fact that it's old. A new 4-Runner/Land Cruiser/LX570 is a dumb purchase new anyway IMO. My friend wanted advice on a new 4 runner, I was like honey just save yourself a bundle and buy a used one, it doesn't matter with a Toyota BOF truck. She bought a 2017, lol. FWIW I get dizzy from the amount of "old" 4 Runner, GX, Land Cruisers, and LXs I see around here.

And right about Sequoyah too I didn't think of those, but those aren't really "special" trucks to me in the way the other ones are.
4R, LC, LX all have cult status.

you can buy the same car for 25k after 10 yrs and maybe for 10k after 15yrs, No offense taken, the point I was making is Toyota is making these old/new cars and there is a niche market for it. Sequoia Trd pro included.
No offense, I didn't mean it's dumb to buy a new one. It's just that I don't buy new cars, it's like dogs vs. cats. The way I see it is why on earth spend 95k on an LX when you can spend 50k 4 years later for basically the same thing. I'll be driving mine once we get it until I'm dead so it doesn't matter.

Not that it's not a bulletproof platform or anything.

I did, however, find one interesting silent (no audio) video demonstrating the automated-driving features on the road. It's not very informative, but better than nothing.

Also, what does cats and dogs have to do with it?

New vs. used, buying vs. leasing. It's just pointless to debate all that any more on here.
For me, bottom line is an automobile is a depreciating asset. Let the first buyer take the hit.
Whatever anyone else does, more power to them.
