Lexus GX460 Review ! - Here's Why It Is Still a Buy Pros and Cons

Here we have the extremely capable Lexus GX460. The GX’s off-road abilities, luxurious interior, and everyday versatility make it a solid package. There are a few draw backs though. Since the GX is an old school design, being a body on frame SUV, the ride may become a little rough at times. To compensate, Lexus has a few tricks up its sleeve. Competing with the Mercedes GLE, Infiniti QX80 and BMW X5… does it stand a chance ??
Here's my take. Watch and find out.

GX460 is the absolute best vehicle made today. It’s for people who are intelligent, and understand the meaning of value versus the misguided need for “new tech” which provides zero value. This is why it continues to sell like crazy and holds value over time. Not everyone is the same and I understand people think the mpg is a limiting factor. However, because the vehicle holds value so well vs say a BMW X5 you will pay more at the pump but will get a better return when you trade or sell your GX. Total value is lost on people today.

If you drive 15, 000 miles per year, the difference between this 18 mpg SUV and a 24 mpg is about $800 savings at the pump. You buy this car because of safety, reliability and capability, not because you want to save on fuel.

This is one of the reliable tank out there. Holds its resale value also.

I got a 2014 premium that just hit 25k miles. I have the crawl control and multi terrain select mod installed and absolutely love this vehicle.

This is why Lexus is my favorite car brand. Good review!

Just bought a 2020 luxury trim GX, picking it Friday, can't wait.

I have a 2010 premium with 115k on it. Drives and rides like new. Average around 18 mpg which is fine because I work from home. If you’re on the fence, buy it. It’s a no nonsense vehicle that will go forever if you maintain it.

I have a 2017, that tool shelf never rattles, didn’t even know it was there for ages😀, someone’s fiddled with it . Love ours old, but that ride even off road, smooth, and higher up . It’ll last . Yes the new screen in 2022 is top notch, without adding too much chip crap . I like driving . The new ones also will come with 20” rims but, I’d rather 17” with bigger tires . Slight raise, GXOF bumper and I’ll go where jeeps tread on a couch 😊

This video played a huge reason as to why I purchased one. Thanks for the review !

No way he’s getting 12mpg! I have a 2017 premium with captain chairs. 69, 000 miles. I consistently get 18.4-18.6 mpg mixed driving. We drove to South Dakota recently and I got 22.6. That’s doing 76-77 mph. No joke. You have to drive like a maniac to get anything less than 18.

Love this off road video. Make more like this my g

[jaycarl]

I have the basic of basic GX. No bells and whistles, just how I like it. Most delete air suspension anyway.

[Ulghart]

It's funny. Most ppl buying this USED SUV are actually buying it because it has all the things that you name as negative... lol. This is the "smart" choice to buy when you are looking for a used Toyota 4runner for about $ 30k and discover that for the same money you can get this car, which essentially is a 4runner, but better in almost every aspect.

My wife and I just traded our 2017 Nissan Rogue in for a 2016 GX460, so excited

I really like how you did this review you kept it simple and intelligent. Well done. My 2015 never missed a beat..

[M_Sonu]

The ‘22s have the updated ( new design / apple car play / Android auto ) infotainment system :)

[project-LEXUS-BMW]

Good vid man, regarding the back door being a wrong side not really every Jeep wrangler rear door opens same way, and the tools in the door at least in my case never makes any noise, make sure all the tools are in a designated slot and you will solve the problem

[Lamidnightsss]

Maybe I felt as if you injected your personal opinion into the review but then again, that’s where this review is coming from. You stated all facts. Great review. 💪🏽 I’m looking forward to buying one of these.

Would you recommend I stay with a base model over luxury as I’m not sure how long or how well the Air suspension would do off road?

[habeebnihad]

you do have to use premium gas in the GX right? you can not use regular ?

[LexusGX-OFF-ROAD]

these things are off-road tanks. They are the Landcruiser Prado is world markets. Different from the 4runner...
