Default Our 2021 GX!!

Traded in our 2019 RX350 F Sport AWD for this beauty, our "New", lol 2021 Lexus GX460 with Premium plus package. Already ordered the sport appearance package since I prefer the clear tail lights. Wheels and suspension are coming right after. My vehicles never stay stock for more than a month . Wife will be driving it and I will inherit it after she's done.

We have been extremely pleased with Lexus.

you won’t be making a mistake.
just don’t wait too long before they change to smaller turbo charged engines if your looking for a new one.


the current 2021 gives you everything you need.
body on frame
4.6 L v8
reliability.
Easy to use dials, controls, shifter. Quality interior.
easy to use navigation system. Anyone can figure it out.


I have certain criteria that must be met when I purchase suvs. The LX and GX met all of them.

Nebula Grey/Black Interior

Sport Package
Picked this up from Lexus of Huntsville. Had to drive all the way from Atlanta to get the color and package I wanted. This is our 4th GX. Started with a 2008 GX, then a 2014 LX570, now back to a 2021 GX. My daughter had a 2008, and now owns a 2016 GX.

Howdy all. Picked up a new to me 2011 Premium about a month ago. I've been in Toyotas for a while, and with the recent increase in 4Runner value, decided to trade in my 2019 4Runner SR5P for the GX460. I received $41,200 for the 4Runner (bought new in 2018 for $36,400) and paid $21k for the GX with 128k miles. The dealer just completed the timing cover/water pump replacement when the vehicle was traded in, and it has quite a bit of work done in the past 6 months according to the service history. I'm guessing the previous owner got tired of getting nickel and dime and traded in on a new one. New rear air bags, coolant valley plate leak, new rad, new brakes all around, new fluids all around, all since Dec 2020. Service history shows the 2 owners were very good about bringing it to the dealer for service.

The "extra" money received from the 4Runner trade was suppose to be allocated to my '68 Mustang rolling restoration, but I'm having a hard time not throwing some money at the GX, too.
