The GX now has rock sliders as an option

[Elijah-fcex]

That's one of the best looking vehicles I've seen in a long time

[nhsajib]

this thing is masterpiece... luxury and off-road combined.

[necbal]

More off-road content never hurt anyone :)

This is probably my favorite vehicle to come out in a long time. I would have a _huge_ payment, but this Lexus is beautiful.

[XtianJade]

This has everything: Luxury, comfort, ruggedness, good looks and reliability.

[rondail]

I like the exterior lines, the squared edges, and the rugged look. So many SUV's look similar.

My local SoCal Lexus dealers are selling the new 2024 GX 550s that start at $103k+. I am glad I bought my 2023 GX 460 luxury edition with an off-road package for $63k and 2.49% Lexus financing.

Never thought a Lexus SUV would look better than a Land Rover, but here we are.

[Chineywhale]

Such a great redesign. Can’t keep my eyes off it. Gonna age so well.

[Douglas.N.]

I appreciate that you built and put this test vehicle through a respectable off-road trail!

[Bainbridge]

Nice start to a Saturday. Thank you sir

[nickcheema]

The perfect vehicle for the thousands who will off road their new GX's! Lexus needs to offer a version with a winch, rock sliders, ladder and roof tent.

[AndyNC]

I was never a Lexus Fan, but this one is quite nice. Looks great and awesome performance.

[gritnltw]

Owner of an RX, love this one. Shall we change it and have the budget, that's the one I will consider.
My 4yo son this morning asked me to play your video of the Rav4 and Forester on the snow, while he was holding his Rav4 toy car.

[garrettdraper]

I’ll never get tired of Ryan’s video structure, super detailed and organized, not to mention entertaining and so many new vehicles. Keep it up!

[MoTo]

Yep this would definitely get me to Costco.
Great video! Been watching you a while, your channel and content has really expanded and grown! Awesome work.

[HONORYOUROATH]

Absolutely love this channel. Ryan is just such a down to Earth likable guy.

I love the new GX...I often daydream of a hybrid powered version (or even the current twin-turbo version would be amazing)...and I start thinking of what body parts I can sell to get one. but, gotta say, I'm not in love with the pop-out rear glass. My current 5th gen 4Runner (and I think all 4Runners) have rear glass that rolls down with a button on the center console and by putting the key in the tailgate and turning it (left down, right up). It's awesome, and I often roll the rear glass down to give my pups some fresh air or just whenever it's a beautiful 70ish degrees outside and I can. I've even rolled it down on the freeway at 75mph and I could barely even perceive any difference in sound. it's just really cool. The tech exists, it's been around on 4Runners since Napoleon. I get the pop-out glass is cheaper, but this is a lexus...cheaper isn't exactly the point. Not sure why, but I fully expected the new GX and Land Cruiser to have roll down rear glass...it makes me a little sad that they don't, but I guess happy that I have what I have and get to keep all my body parts.

I test drove this GX and was very impressed, it exuded quality. I never drove a Landcruiser but today sat in one for the first time. That thing is equally impressive as the GX. Oddly, though, the Sequoia feels like a step down.
