They're nice. The light is not blinding but they offer better coverage in my opinion.
Diode Dynamics:
Interior: (10) HP3/194/168 in natural white
Exterior: (4) HP5/194/168 in pure white (running boards)

I also replaced reverse lights with brighter LEDs, which are awesome, especially when towing.

Default Back to Lexus

Hi all! Just picked up a ‘20 GX last Wednesday, Starfire Pearl with Rioja Red interior…car is amazing, have loved every second of it! I had a 2016 IS 350 F Sport for years, traded it in for a 2017 BMW X6M when my wife and I had the little ones…absolute fatal error, car was getting repaired every other month. Finally on it’s last hiccup, I went back to what we all know is ol’ reliable and limped the Beamer to the Lexus dealer…I’ll never leave Lexus again lol

congrats, RobZ13. after I bought my SC430, I needed something to drive in bad weather. thought I would do the patriotic thing and buy American. bought a ford escape. after a year of it constantly being in the shop and the dealer never figuring out how to fix anything, I thought, well, maybe it's just a lemon - i'll trade it for another one. wrong. same issues, same BS from the dealer. so, dumped it for a GX470 and have never looked back. nothing but Lexus for us, Lord allowing.

Default Just picked up a new GX460

Flew down to LA to buy it and drove back to NorCal. Couldn’t pass up the color.

Multiple guys at the local dealer stopped me to ask about it, pretty funny for a rather common vehicle.

Just picked up my 2023 Nori Green Black Line GX460 🦖

I thought I might not like the light grey seats, but they are darker in person than in pics. And the black line has a lot of stuff few talk about like the different floor mats with the grey trim, the fact that it comes with the rear carpet mat, the prado rather than flush roof bars, and mine came with key gloves (I think they all do as the key gloves had the black line color scheme with grey and black).



I am going to bolt on the Curt hitch (with Lexus hitch plug cover thing) and do the secondary air pump foam removal with a uni filter. Those parts are waiting in the back. I will pull fuse 12 to disable the auto adjust steering wheel and I am also planning to get her waxoyl protected. I spent my delivery time turning off every feature I could. 🤣

EDIT: apparently the fuse for the steering is not in the same place as earlier truck so I need to solve that

Appreciate the forum being here. I am on some others forums with the same username and understand the value forums provide.

Default New to me 2018 here

Not sure the package or how I would know. Obviously a novice here.

24,000 miles. Hoping to get a number of good years out of it. Plan to install towing stuff to haul my boat around when needed, plan to install that sonic thing to get some CarPlay action. It’s like a charcoal color, black interior, no mark levinson.

Just made a deal to pick up a new to me 2014 GX 460. Flying down to Florida this week from Ohio to go pick it up.

1. Year and package - 2014 Luxury
3. Color or the exterior and interior - Grey/Black
2. Navigation or no navigation / Mark Levinson - Navigation not sure on the ML, I will know this week.
4. Option Packages or options (RSES, park assist, etc) - No other major options that I know of.

Yep I am a little odd in that I just like something and tend to go get it. As long as this ends up better than my Lotus Esprit Purchase where I drove it less than 5000 miles and had to have the engine rebuilt. So if this is better than that I will be happy.
