I'm new here, and just upgraded to a 2021 GX Premium from a 2020 4Runner Off Road Premium. Both great vehicles, but the GX is on another level in just about every way with the exception of CarPlay.
Anyway, I had a Pedal Commander in the 4Runner, (model PC27), and was pleased to discover that is also works perfectly in the GX.
Greatly improves perceived throttle response. I've settled on the City setting +/-0 for now.
The GX needed less 'help' than the 4Runner did, but still benefits greatly from this simple mod in my opinion.
Cheers.

I've been using it for a few years now and currently it's at City +2

Running City +1 here on my 2010 460. What a fantastic difference this makes on how it drives. Less pedal input means less foot fatigue.

Anyone try Roar Pedal?
Good to hear the feedback on Pedal Commander.
Has anyone tried Roar Pedal? https://roarpedal.com/
Seems to do the same thing, but doesn't have a Bluetooth interface and about half the price.

Interestingly, the part # for the Sprint Booster is different between the 5th gen 4Runners and the GX460, while other brands use the same part # for both. Only reason I sold my Sprint Booster when I got the 460.

I came from a 2016 4Runner to 2021 GX in January 2021, I agree with exactly what you said and love my GX! What an upgrade!
Pedal commander is great for faster response and better gas mileage esp cruising on a highway!

You shouldn't see any increase/decreasae in fuel economy associated with adding one of these devices. Any change would be based on a change in your driving style, cruising on the highway with cruise control set removes the driving style factor completely.

If anything, you would see the gas mileage drop with the pedal commander. Pedal commander continues to send me emails, I cannot get off their email list, and for that reason I hate them.

I installed the Pedal Commander Thursday evening. Been averaging 16.8 MPG according to Fuelly app which does not take into consideration, the larger tires. I have it on City +1 so we will see what it does to mileage.

I'm a Fuelly user as well, I figured out my odometer correction factor to be 1.01 on the wife's GX460, and 1.036 on my GX470, so I just multiply the trip meter reading by that when making my entries for "corrected" fuel economy figures.
