I easily believe that. We wound up buying a CPO base '13 last summer that has the seating package with the upgrade semi-aniline leather. We saw the GX right after they got it in as a trade in and before they did any work detailing/fixing it up. The drivers seat was a wreak before they refurbished/cleaned it up. We try to be careful with it even though I'm sure it won't wear that well over time. We use an extra seat cushion that helps protect it (but protection is a side effect, I need it bc for whatever reason the GX front seat kills my lower back when I drive for any period). I would think vinyl, at least some quality vinyl, would last longer than leather in most cases

Consider a used Luxury with drivers support package. They're a bit harder to find because there was a wait between 3 and 6 months for the drivers support package, but they have the cameras, crawl control, air suspension, etc.

I seriously doubt there will be much if any changes on the 2021.

I'd rather have a new 2020 with 2010-2012 bumpers than a new 2019 with a 2020 grill. Better yet, the Toyota LC150/Prado face and rear bumper, rear door tire carrier, 2nd fuel tank and 2.8l 4cyl diesel engine while you're at it.

the face is different, the tech is the same since 2010. LSS is not even TSS v1. just repackaged trim options

If they make any small year-to-year changes at all, my wishlish for 2021 model would be:
1). Carplay
2). A/C button and fan button as mechanical buttons
3). Up-swinging tailgate
4). Electric power steering
For the 2023 redesign, if it ever happens, wishlist would be:
5). Includes the above
6). More efficient engine, like a 3.5L turbo
7). Keep the "tall" look
Despite wishful thinking, #1-4 are probably not gonna happen, since they've had 10 years to do those (including 2 refreshes), and they still haven't done it.
There's more hope in the 2023 redesign though. But I'm getting my hopes up too high already.

I just bought a '13 a few months ago, so not in the market, but agree that Carplay/Android Auto would be the single biggest improvement to the GX by a long way IMHO. I oddly don't really mind using the screen for the A/C - my '07 IS250 has physical buttons and I am still always confusing the radio buttons for the AC control.
