Hmmmm, hello!!

Hello! I joined some fellow Earthlings to nab the national offer. I'm coming from 2023 gx luxury and it's been quite the adjustment . I might call the dealer tomorrow to see if it's still up there. I miss it and my wife if it's commissioning about the passenger seat not being the same as the driver's (thigh extension, doesn't feel as wide, etc). That hybrid thud, engine "pep", lack of cubby space (GX had it too), and whirring noises are beginning to make me question the decision. Only ~120 miles so a long way to go!

Interesting initial response. It shows how we are all different. After owning 3 real Land Cruisers (not GX's) we got into our 700h and just soaked in the silence, and smoothness, and POWER. We cannot imagine how we'll love next summers month-long west coast and mountains trip.

Sounds awesome! It's super nice and comfortable and capable!! I'll get it checked out and if nothing comes up, just swap the drive modes and turn up the ML . It's just different than the silky v8 (albeit, slow and ancient) I guess.

I am sorry that you aren't feeling it......it did take take me a few miles to fall in love (the love fest started when I pulled my 22' boat a big chunk of miles vs. the GX that I thought only ho-hum for pulling). I just had two hunting trips to South Dakota in my Overtrail 700H. The total miles driven was about 2,000. Three of the four legs were GLARE ice. Two of the four trips I had a smallish (1,200#) trailer in tow. I cannot rant enough enough about how stable the LX was across such garbage roads. We never had a butt pucker moment. I hate the small gas tank. I hate the cramped rear seat (especially after multiple days of hunting)..... but I love the "vault" feeling and the quiet ride in spite off road tires. I wish this wasn't just my vacation car....I wish it was my daily driver (90% of my yearly miles are on my 100% electric Porsche Macan (and I really like the Macan)). Please consider giving your LX a bit more time.
