Typically the slower you go the noisier it will be.

perfectly normal though

^Gives me hope. I looked at a couple last week. Too bad I hate black cars, there was a 2017 CPO Premium that they wanted 39,900 for with 38K Miles. They also offered me 33K for my 2016 Wrangler with 60K miles, which came to 35K with the tax savings. Essentially would have been 8K out of pocket fees, taxes, etc. Even though the car was in pretty great shape, I could already see all the black car scratches coming through. Not doing that again. I'd really like white or silver.

I'm going to look at a 2018 and 2019 premium with 31K and 38K respectively tomorrow. If I can make it the trade plus 7K cash and I walk out, they'll have a deal. If not, the waiting game continues.

Couple of questions.
Should I leave the suspension in "N" all the time or press the OFF button and the dash displays "N" with the "off" on it?
Auto High beam is automatic or I need to turn that on? If the latter, how to turn that on?
Thanks

Correct. Override occurs at speed whether you have on L or H and will back to
N

Default 2014 gx460 good deal???

Hello; We are selling our 1999 rx300 and buying a 2014 gx460 with 55k miles on it. The NO BUDGE price is 32500, I asked him to come down as there are scratches on the passenger side ( they will buff out) and the navigation does not work , it does not show the right location for the vehicle. He said it has not worked for a couple months. He did have the battery replaced months ago and the dealer said it may need a new control unit or antennae.
He has had the following work done and is the original owner. Checked the car fax and no issue with accidents .

Tires were replaced and have about 5k miles on them
rear brakes, rotors were resurfaced and new pads. I asked what about the front and he said the dealer said they were fine....hmmm

I drove the car and it drives real nice.....you can tell it has never been off road
I did see the transfer case has been resealed. I read that those can leak, this was fixed under warranty.

Is this a good deal? It is black on black leather, needs to be detailed . He always took it to the dealer.

In today's prices that's a good deal IMHO, especially with those low miles. For nav unit, do all other functions work, i.e. climate control, audio? If so, the non functioning nav is no big deal since it's outdated tech, I've only used mine once and determined it wasn't worth using again!
That being said, 32.5k is a lot of money , how does that price compare to other similarly spec'ed cars in your area?

Its about right with the pricing. I missed another one for 32 k and everything worked ( from what I remember). The Navigation unit, you know the guy? You sound just like him....... he echoed the same sentiment, but when your selling something, the checkered suit and cheesy tie go on to do whatever it takes to sell it.
Just irks me that the navigation does not work, for 32 k and only 7 years old, but yes everything else appears to work

This is almost exactly what I paid in 2017 for my 2014 luxury with 50k on it. Crazy to me to think it’s essentially worth what I paid over 4 years ago. No depreciation in 4 years. Strange market right now.

edit: I would not worry too much about deferred maintenance at that mileage. Parts are cheap (Toyota prices) and the truck is pretty easy to work on.

as someone else said, I’d ensure that the control unit functions properly for radio, climate, etc. would be an expensive fix.

It's about right in today market. I'd ask him to lower the price and tell him you'll have to replace the expensive Nav. system (I wouldn't replace it if everything else working)
Read my thread created couple weeks ago. I scored a fully loaded luxury 2016 for under $30k ($31.5k out the door)
