Definitely. If you want a specific color combination it gets even worse. We had to fly from Miami to Durham to get our black/black 2017 CPO with drivers support.

On the 10-13 models they didn't call it Driver Support Package but all of these long winded names with many different variations of options as well.

I had the opposite happen to me. It was correctly listed as a Lux but they didn't include Driver Support Package in the description (or the price I don't think).

If you can get any picture of vehicle...that camera below the grille emblem is gonna be the best indicator of the Driver Support Package.

tigmd99 thanks for creating this post, very helpful! Re-used one of your pics because I do not own one with Driver Support Pack just yet

Another identifier: Wide angle camera button next to "Mode" button.

Default Dynamic Radar Cruise Control

How to tell if I have this feature on a 2018 GX 460?

Default You will have....

Look at the steering wheel buttons below the enter toggle on the right side. You will have two of those buttons. One of which is the distance setting for the cruise. The other is the LDA.

Updated 10-13 combos. Looks like 10-11 base had those first two option packages available. That 10 with the odd crawl switch in the crawl/mts thread and also the options are listed in '11 brochure but not the '10.

Default Anomalies of Driver Support Package

I'll add some comments for those who have never experienced some of the features of the Driver Support Package on a 2016 model.

The LDA is appropriately sensitive and consists of a audible tone which disturbs passengers (and the driver) to the point I don't use it thus defeating the purpose. I read that the newer version of LDA adds wheel vibration which is preferable to sound (driver focused). One disadvantage of the hydraulic steering is the inability to easily add steering correction as in newer vehicles with electric steering.

The radar cruise operates very abruptly, meaning it brakes too quickly when a car pulls in front even at a far distance and then accelerates rather abruptly when able to accelerate. Also, it is not active to zero speed (which is a don't care to me). My 2018 Volvo S60 (last of that generation) has a much better radar cruise control system and accounts for the variables much better and makes the experience seamless within reason compared to the GX.

Regarding the Pre-Collision Alert, I have never experienced it and hope not to!

One of the most used features is the Intelligent High-Beam Headlamps that are beneficial since they turn on the high beams much more often than I normal would using manual control (part of the package and don't remember if available separately).
