I now understand what your saying. Only the buyers that do their home work realize that the 4runner and GX470 are brothers, I can see where that helps the sales. I was talking to a Lexus salesmen the other day while I was getting a oil/filter change. Asked him about when the new GX's with the VVTi engines would be showing up. He said they always had VVTi engines. Well after I corrected him, he stated that most of the Lexus buyers never ask any questions that are technical. All they normally want to know about our features like stereo, bun warmers, etc. 'Rx900' I've alway thought it was weird that the LC and LX were twins except for the emblem on them. I bet they will also follow the 4runner/GX470 trend and the next generation will be the same except the coach work will be different.
