Agreed. GX was the last model dealers sold or are still selling with a mark up, as the last year of the current generation, what attracted buyers got to be the V8 that is going to be extinct. Folks, this is the last V8 that is below $100K or perhaps $120K.

Where are the spy photographers? They're pathetic at their jobs nowadays and need to be spoon fed locations apparently. The day Brenda Priddy and Jim Dunne died, it left us with idiots like TFL and general mediocrity. I see these prototype vehicles testing covered up everyday, but often it is when I am busy and unable to snap them while driving or off limit product (FMC). Sad, sad how it's non-photogs who have to be spotting these things at all.

And a note:

@pbm317 Thankfully warned me about providing bad information, from my expectation of an HQ Confidential this year. It's actually June 8, 2023 at 8PM ET per @CCTX .

Almost bought one of those or a Grand Wagoneer but as much as I like my MOPARs I'd rather have a Lexus. Ultimately the reliability of a Lexus/Toyota is unparelleled.

I'm highly interested in a PHEV TX. So I hope you're correct.

Anyone know when the forum admins will make a dedicated 3rd gen GX subfolder so we can move all these non 2nd conversations there and let people post about the 2024+?

Curious george wants to know...

I think it looks pretty good, better than the 2nd gen. Minor complaint is that the rear wiper is no longer gracefully hidden, and is just stuck on the bottom of the rear glass. Also looks like maybe no more barn door - too bad.
But if they don't limit supply these things are going to sell like crazy, esp since anyone who might be thinking LX still has to wait forever and might just get the GX, esp if the interior dimensions are similar to the current GX.

We’ll go live with 3rd Gen forum after 6/8 reveal… continue to post here for now and I will move the thread over into the new subforum once it is live.

Thanks!

Now it is official the 2024 is to be made in Texas, another reason to grab a 2023 when you can.
