We start with a proper technical review under the hood discussing all three powertrain options

Then we take a look underneath it, Inside it and Outside. Then we talk about some things we don't like.

One of the things that I like about your videos, is that even though you are a "Toyota guy" you're not afraid to point out the flaws in Toyota and Lexus vehicles where they exist.
Also, you don't call any vehicle all bad.
You indicate the good and the bad in all vehicles.

[JimDoeman]

I think Im the only one who loves the way this SUV looks. Its interesting and strong.

[shawnmirza]

They should definitely make more V6 hybrid vehicles, it's a perfect blend of performance, efficiency, and reliability!

Mr. Car Care Nut you have defined the top of the game for auto reviews. For not the least reason: "let's start ... under the hood"! Thank you for the consistently intelligent, experienced, detailed and honest information. Forever grateful.

"sensible people buy Lexus they don't want drama" :) good line. Very good review.

[johnchen]

This review is way more informative than other YouTubers. No one buying a Lexus TX is going to prioritize 0-60 speed, how it corners on a track, or the approach and departure angle off-road.

I'm glad they have a V6. The turbo engines only, made me rule out Toyota/Lexus. I HATE, HATE, little 4cyc turbo engines.

The flex coupling in the exhaust is for noise and vibration control. When the exhaust is rigidly attached to the engine, it goes into mechanical resonance and creates a lot of vibration at a certain frequency. The location of the flex coupling is critical to the tuning of that vibration frequency and amplitude.

I had a 2016 RX450h hybrid with a 3.5L V6. Had a towing package from the factory with a beefed up radiator and a transmission cooler. Amazing vehicle, killer gas mileage, smooth as butter and tons of power with excellent gas mileage. I love my 4Runner, but I traded down.

I believe the reason why the "things" we dont talk about are removable is to wash them when you get the bottom full of sugar from the soda cups so they dont get sticky and dirty

There is no one that can explain a car review like you my friend thank you.

[vsavatar]

Can you please explain something? If the Grand Highlander and the TX both use the T24A-FTS engines, why does the TX require premium gas, but the Grand Highlander does not?

[shawnakavan]

Why can’t all YouTubers bring this much value to viewers - he’s best car reviewer. Deserve a PhD in mechanics. Thank you for not wasting our time.

[db]

You must be commended for the specialist that you are, thank you. What a performance.

[thomasstorrs]

You are absolutely right about the open area in the rear. Problems waiting to happen. Not a good design for such an expensive vehicle

AMD is hands down the best car reviewer on youtube. Covers the core things true car enthusiasts and consumers look for, which is quality and craftsmanship. Instead of counting cup holders and USB ports. By the way, my neighbor bought a TX350 luxiry trim, cost was 83K out the door. It has been a year now, he tells me that he regrets it. Recenty he was on a long trip and there was rain on the way, water was dripping from sunroof on the center controls. Then dealership asks dumb questions like was the sunroof open. Turned out to be they had to replace the sunroof gasket and assembly but damaged the head liner pretty bad. Parts are back ordered and still waiting that to be replaced. Thanks AMD, i am sticking with Older GX460.

The T24A is one of the most solidly-built turbocharged engines on the market. Solid valve train, mechanical water pump, vacuum wastegate.

[jmyers]

People ❤ love the V6 engine. People want the option of V6 fo Tacoma and 4 runner. V6 engine is iconic.

[johnb]

Electric door handles are a terrible idea! When you are in a front impact accident and the battery gets smashed how are you getting out of the car and how is rescue getting in?

[alannguyen]

This is the review I've been waiting for! I love your technical reviews so much!
