Got my 3rd Used Oil Sample Analysis back from Blackstone, Post #2 updated with the results. My takeaway with normal driving mileage is more important than time interval given a high quality synthetic is used. Cheers.

We took the lil guy on his first pumpkin patch hunt and he loaded up the GX!

Garage kept and detailed. Still looks pretty good for 7 years old.

Got the title in the mail today for the GX after making the last payment recently, officially own it!
Brought home a new garage mate for it... (Our 2005 corolla got totaled 2 weeks ago parked out front of the house)
Ended pulling the trigger on a new CRV Hybrid sport touring model as our commuter/ around town vehicle.
It's a dream to drive and and surprisingly large inside. I admit the GX is getting parked mostly now except for the occasionally drive for maintenance purposes once a week or for longer family trips than 2 nights and we'll just pile all the miles on the CRV.

I've never heard of skyjackers. But that was one of things I miss most from my ES was the extending leg support, makes so much better for long road trips.

Ole Girl has been parked since we got the Crv so gave her a little love this past weekend by swapping over to GXbob amber led turn signals (previous ones hyper flashed after a year), installed smoked mirror led sequential turn signals, and 2020 blackline fog light garnish (like this detail since it matches the Anthracite F-Sport wheels nearly perfectly).

@nuclearn8 You are the only one I have seen do the Land Cruiser badge on a GX460, well at least one I would want to do



Perfect! After you updated this thread it finally made me go out and see how you did it and ordered last night. Thanks for that. I'm not going with the Prado badge but did order the 470 V8 badge as well. It is the little things that matter and you have done an extremely well job IMO.

I know some will say that the 460 is not a LC but they can kiss my grits, I know what a Land Cruiser is. My Iron Pig back in either 79 or 80



White wagon wheels were hot back then

@ColdIron thanks for the compliments and love the white wheels, I suspect those will come back in style one day... My goal is to keep our GX so our son can inherit it as his first vehicle and now that we have the Crv to piles on I suspect that won't be a problem for him to inherit a bit of a time capsule.

Installed these for icy cold front seats: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...nted-duct.html , I added a further cardboard diverter (slid under the printed piece and duct taped to the side of the fan housing) so it directs the airflow directly into the fan suction entrance, icy cold now...

Thanks Neal @ihateu3
