@@JulezWinnfield who cares? A very high tech up-to-date vehicle today in 10 years of its reliable will be outdated then do you still keep it? This vehicle is clearly for those who do not follow the crowd but cut their own path.
I think most anything should be reliable after being on the market for over a decade. I don't see how this is an accomplishment as much as it's to be expected. If they can build an actual NEW model and keep that same level of reliability, it will be far more impressive.
@@JulezWinnfield I'm sure people like you, of which there are many in this age, line up for vehicles full of 'gadgets', but then are the first to whine when they break down..
Without a doubt you did one of the best reviews of this GEM. The ONLY item you missed is that what you show is the PREMIUM PLUS model! It's the Prem PLUS sports Trim. Wish you had explained that part as it gets power 3rd row AND the ML 17 speaker stereo with the Subwoofer. An important piece! No other vehicle comes close to this amazing vehicle. I have owned 4 of them over past 17 years. Now on my 2023 in Eminent White. Absolutely love it! THANKS AGAIN! Excellent job.
Things are absolute tanks and reliable as tomorrow. Sometimes, slow and old is the best way. It is impeccably assembled, about the same performance as today's V6 competitors that are lighter, and is super smooth! Oh, and its offroad chops are certified, for sure.
I have the 2011 GX460 with 80,000 Miles, but it is looking quite aged. Still going strong and super comfortable. I am considering upgrading to the 22/23 GX460 as love the newer look. Thoughts?
We are on our third GX460 and the 2022/23 MY are hands down the best versions of itself. All of the modern tech and safety features one could ask for, solid build construction, reliable drivetrain, off-road chops with little mods needed to truly make it a force off-rod and an insane aftermarket that continues to grow. This will go down as the most reliable 4WD SUV in it's segment (the 4Runner is right there but the GX is better in nearly every way) for it's time and I am willing to bet that they will be sought after for many years to come and consequently hold their value on the secondary market quite well. All of that said, we will eventually own one of the new GX550's, most likely in the second or third year, gotta let them work out the bugs and let the hype and markups wear off.
I bought my wife this Mother's Day last year. This is THE BEST car ever purchase. So reliable, so comfy and buttery smoothe . My wife is so happy every time she drives this.
I have an ‘08 470 with 150K miles. I have replaced the airbags. Everything else has been routine maintenance. It used to be my wife’s. She is now driving a ‘22 460 luxury model. Reliable is an understatement.
Just leased my 4th GX460 today. Atomic Silver. I was gonna wait for the 2024 but not too crazy about the new design. It looks like the old boxy Jeep model Commander which I wasn't a big fan of. The lease is only 27months so, it won't be too long until scoping out for another new Lexus.
FYI, my 2021 Lux gets 17/21/19 in mine! In traffic it dips to 16, but normal driving I get those numbers. I’ve gotten 500 miles on a single tank once. Best vehicle on the road.
Ugh…just bought a 2023 and the 2024 looks mouth watering for a trade based on the cropped teaser lexus shared. However…a naturally aspirated V8 vs a V6 turbo (new gx) makes me say nah…
Another great review. Been strongly considering the GX for three years. Recent 2024 Lexus picture sneak peeks suggest a more rugged, more muscular-looking, off-road-performing vehicle. The general wisdom is to wait at least one year after a complete redesign...putting the wait to 2025. If you need a vehicle now, would you recommend getting a 2023 GX460 now and possibly trading it in for a 2025/2026 GX550 in the future, taking a chance now on a first-year 2024 GX redesign, or would you go with a different vehicle now and get a GX 550 at some later date (your Pathfinder review was excellent and very positive - while a very different vehicle, rented one recently for a family trip and was a great vehicle). Wondering how strong the future resale value of a 2023 GX460 will be if the 2024 GX550 redesign is extremely popular (and has better acceleration/torque/mpg).
Do not get the 2024 if it’s based on reliability alone. The next gen engine has already shown issues within the Tundra with rod bearing and turbo wastegate failures. Issues that require body off frame $30,000 (warranted) repairs. Look it up. Of course, the new GX will have “Lane Tracing Assist” aka basically fully autonomous highway driving, a single feature that alone might make it worth braving the risk of a new model year purchase. I was in the same boat and decided on a 2023 GX “Premium-Plus” package. I f’ng love it and am excited about driving it until any issues get sorted out with the next generation and I’m comfortable with the idea of buying one. Just my humble opinion.
I noticed this GX sunroof didn’t open all the way with one touch. I asked the dealer they said all the GX are like that? It’s “old” but Lexus didn’t want to update more enough things even from 2022 models so they can save their cost but MSRP still went up! I heard new 2024 GX will come out with different turbo engine which some may not like it including me!
The 2024 GX will not be available until January at the earliest, and then, in limited numbers! As with any re-design, the new 2024 GX will have issues not foreseen by the engineers and of course, user feedback will warrant changes too. The new GX will be fully flushed out in 2025 or so. The 2024 GX spec numbers just released provide the 2024 GX with a 16 mpg from a twin-turbo V^ with 10 speed transmission! That is not good at all. The new 2024 will also be $5 - $10K higher in price - inflation and supply chain don't you know! If new fancy electronic upgrades do not matter to you and your driving and comfort are the important things- buy the 2023 V* while you can still buy these old school V8 butter-smooth babies! I just bought my 2023 GX knowing that the 2024 GX would be a V6 Turbo and 10 spreed trans and a minimum 6 month wait and I am very happy with my new purchase. Simpler is better!
Great information thanks for the details, I’m going to trade in my 2019 4Runner trd off road premium for same trim and options I like the V8 thanks guys
Fuel economy is fine with V8 engine on 2023 lexus gx 460 get 15 city of 19 highway. Better than 2015 chevy express starcraft school bus have 6.0 vortec gas engine a get 6 miles per gallon. Go for a lexus gx 460 with a V8
This lexus gx 460 is better than jeep patriots 2wd of 4x4 are piece of junk too small to light and too weak. Go for lexus gx 460 is larger heavier and stronger for all weather conditions.
the palisade is a pile of shit that will rust at the junkyard in 10 years while this Gx460 will still run like it just came out of the dealer.You cant even compare a trash hyundai to a Lexus.
Totally agree. I had a 2019 Rav4 (first year of that gen) and it had several recalls and other improvements that came with the later years (for example sound deadening on hood because of loud engine noise). Not only reliability improvements, but design improvements based on complaints!
@BossMan-vl5cd what's wrong with it? It's the same engine they've had in LS500 for a while, is it not? In any case, I changed my mind and will not be buying that car anymore.
Y’all never hit the gas hard. I’ve had 2 GX’s. Hit the pedal hard and it’ll haul a$$. Yeah, you’ll use some gas doing it, but that’s the best part of a V8. They are smooth however. Great video - please next time bury the gas pedal.
A lot of reviewers seem to miss this particular V8 likes to rev. Yes, they are a bit sluggish because the transmission just wants to upshift ASAP. Give it the beans and that V8 will open up, but plan for your next fuel stop soon.
The current GX being a "luxury" SUV has grossly outdated interior technology, gaudy grill that makes modding difficult, and the low tuned V8 is so heavy that it is barely quicker than the V6 4Runner and the added V8 weight will lead to some steering component damage, during off road use. The GX sucks compared to everything it competes with. I drive a Range Rover that I update every 4 years, so do not care if the engine will last 500k miles. No luxury brand buyer keeps vehicles for more than 3 to 4 years lol. My supercharged 4Runner is much better and quicker. The next gen GX will be 110% better, having modern technology and even more power in the much lighter detuned version of the 3.4 V6 turbo used by the Land Cruiser 300 and new Tundra. It will be even more reliable than the current Land Cruiser 300 Series, because it is lighter. It will be the best GX ever and finally be the vehicle I swap my 4Runner for!
This is such a foolish take. I’m also a Land Rover/Jaguar owner & have wasted so much time at the dealership on recalls & dumb issues! Why wouldn’t you want a reliable vehicle & the Lexus is not outdated in terms of interior quality. Range Rover media console is glitchy AF, sometimes backup camera doesn’t turn on & screen goes dark when turned on. It’s also not true that people don’t keep luxury cars for more than 3 to 4 years. Who wastes their money like that
@@Takeiteasy11 The foolish take is thinking those of us that buy luxury vehicles are seeking "reliability" when we don't intend to keep it longer than 3 or 4 years😂. Range Rovers and the most common SUV, where I live. GXs are something you bash around off road or winter driver. Just like 4Runners, but the GX breaks parts, off road, because of the heavier engine lol I owned a GX and traded it for a Range Rover because the GX was trash compared to every other luxury brand i have been in and owned. Jurassic age infotainment. Heavy V8 that is detuned, making the GX power to weight terrible, making it a sluggish, thirsty dinosaur, that sucks compared to segment rivals. It even handles like a dinosaur🤣 You comment section bandwagon riders are clueless lol. Reliable this reliable that. No luxury buyer cares😂
@@lunamaria1048 I have had a 2017 RR Sport SVR along with my 2013 RR Supercharged. I like the Rover sports a lot, but IF you want a car with no problems and you can keep forever, than you can't beat the GX. I wish it had more power, besides that I am good with the tech cause it has a great Levinson stereo. In the new GX550 to turn the fan up and down you have to hit the screen??? Newer technology is not always better especially when it comes to replacing buttons with screen taps. There is a place for both. I fully agree if you are flipping a car every 2-3 years, don't worry about reliability. I do both. I flip fun cars and keep others long term. My 2013 RR sport has 140k miles on it, but I have dropped about $4k in the last 4 years to keep it running. I do love the car though as I do an old school GX.
@@ms8742 My pint is that those of us who buy Range Rovers like my Autobiography aren't looking for long lasting. Range Rovers are the fastest depreciating vehicle on the market, so we trade off every 4 to maybe 5 years. They run perfect if serviced properly, especially for 4 years! The 2013 RR Sport was definitely the best looking generation for the Sport! My mother had a 2013! I miss that exterior look and dislike the new RR Sport because it simply looks like they got lazy and took the front half of a Velar and rear half of a Discovery and stuck them together. It has lost that distinct aggressive RR Sport styling that made the Sport so special. Many RR Sport purists are a bit unhappy, but I guess we will see how it goes! I only dislike the current GX because of the old tech and the front grill/bumpers make it impossible to use off road, which is exactly what I buy Toyota/Lexus for, is to use off road. Reliable or not. However, yesterday I made my reservation for the 2024 GX 550. It is absolutely beautiful and has a proper body-on-frame. Toyota was shocked by the Defenders success so made the new GX to compete directly! I absolutely love it!
Yes it will outlive other stuff, but just buy one used if it lasts so long. It hasnt changed at all since 2010, and buying one new is a very stupid purchase.
You are right! I just don’t know why people praised this GX so much. Other Japanese car, suv are reliable too. Off-road? How many people do that if they buy this new or late used expensive suv and considered luxury! I owned used one and let me tell you it’s not all that great for the price!
Hopefully Lexus relinquish the all front grille look. SO UGLY! Toyota looks so much better. Front grille is ugly blacked out, hideous in silver or gold
Don’t waste your money drives horrible very difficult to keep it tracking likes to wonder left and right also cannot pass. A gas station storage is horrible for family. This car is noticeably narrower than a forerunner also with third row there is no storage engine is terrible No power for a V-8 families would be better off with the GM deli pass it up.
I bought a '23* and noticed the wandering. Talked to a few tire shops, and they said the Dunlop's are junk tires. Thin sidewallakes = less protective and wandering feel, like driving in sand. They recommended the Michelin Defender, so I'll give them a try asap, and put the Dunlop's on marketplace!
Arguably, the best reliable luxury SUV ever made

This model year is going to very sought after. I think similar price holds as the 2014 FJ Cruiser. Easily the most polished vehicle Lexus made.

Where's the kdss dynamic suspension? Thats the more important feature for the premium trim.
Buy this for a naturally aspirated V8 engine. Buy the new one for a most likely turbocharged V6.

Remains to be seen how much the new GX costs… new tech and more complex drivetrains = more $$. The 22s and 23s will be sought after.
Not just the turbo, but the direct injection, too. This thing is built to last.
With the third row down, I thought the GX was 46.7 cu. ft. You said 36. Can you confirm?

Range Rover media console is glitchy AF, sometimes backup camera doesn’t turn on & screen goes dark when turned on. It’s also not true that people don’t keep luxury cars for more than 3 to 4 years. Who wastes their money like that
@@Takeiteasy11 The foolish take is thinking those of us that buy luxury vehicles are seeking "reliability" when we don't intend to keep it longer than 3 or 4 years😂. Range Rovers and the most common SUV, where I live. GXs are something you bash around off road or winter driver. Just like 4Runners, but the GX breaks parts, off road, because of the heavier engine lol
I owned a GX and traded it for a Range Rover because the GX was trash compared to every other luxury brand i have been in and owned. Jurassic age infotainment. Heavy V8 that is detuned, making the GX power to weight terrible, making it a sluggish, thirsty dinosaur, that sucks compared to segment rivals. It even handles like a dinosaur🤣
You comment section bandwagon riders are clueless lol. Reliable this reliable that. No luxury buyer cares😂
@@lunamaria1048 I have had a 2017 RR Sport SVR along with my 2013 RR Supercharged. I like the Rover sports a lot, but IF you want a car with no problems and you can keep forever, than you can't beat the GX. I wish it had more power, besides that I am good with the tech cause it has a great Levinson stereo. In the new GX550 to turn the fan up and down you have to hit the screen??? Newer technology is not always better especially when it comes to replacing buttons with screen taps. There is a place for both. I fully agree if you are flipping a car every 2-3 years, don't worry about reliability. I do both. I flip fun cars and keep others long term. My 2013 RR sport has 140k miles on it, but I have dropped about $4k in the last 4 years to keep it running. I do love the car though as I do an old school GX.
@@ms8742 My pint is that those of us who buy Range Rovers like my Autobiography aren't looking for long lasting. Range Rovers are the fastest depreciating vehicle on the market, so we trade off every 4 to maybe 5 years. They run perfect if serviced properly, especially for 4 years! The 2013 RR Sport was definitely the best looking generation for the Sport! My mother had a 2013! I miss that exterior look and dislike the new RR Sport because it simply looks like they got lazy and took the front half of a Velar and rear half of a Discovery and stuck them together. It has lost that distinct aggressive RR Sport styling that made the Sport so special. Many RR Sport purists are a bit unhappy, but I guess we will see how it goes!
I only dislike the current GX because of the old tech and the front grill/bumpers make it impossible to use off road, which is exactly what I buy Toyota/Lexus for, is to use off road. Reliable or not. However, yesterday I made my reservation for the 2024 GX 550. It is absolutely beautiful and has a proper body-on-frame. Toyota was shocked by the Defenders success so made the new GX to compete directly! I absolutely love it!
@@lunamaria1048 We pretty much agree on the points you mentioned.
This the the crappiest Lexus ever. Small, boring to drive, expensive, dated interior but somehow people love it and used prices are thru the roof.
It's boring and outdated but this will outlast and outlive any German luxury SUV at similar price point
@@webbie1891 True
Yes it will outlive other stuff, but just buy one used if it lasts so long. It hasnt changed at all since 2010, and buying one new is a very stupid purchase.
@@p_enta5012 Bingo.
You are right! I just don’t know why people praised this GX so much. Other Japanese car, suv are reliable too. Off-road? How many people do that if they buy this new or late used expensive suv and considered luxury! I owned used one and let me tell you it’s not all that great for the price!
Hopefully Lexus relinquish the all front grille look. SO UGLY! Toyota looks so much better. Front grille is ugly blacked out, hideous in silver or gold
Don’t waste your money drives horrible very difficult to keep it tracking likes to wonder left and right also cannot pass. A gas station storage is horrible for family. This car is noticeably narrower than a forerunner also with third row there is no storage engine is terrible No power for a V-8 families would be better off with the GM deli pass it up.
As an owner of these beast, I agree with some but…the smoothness and reliability trumps a baby crying over small things

I bought a '23* and noticed the wandering. Talked to a few tire shops, and they said the Dunlop's are junk tires. Thin sidewallakes = less protective and wandering feel, like driving in sand. They recommended the Michelin Defender, so I'll give them a try asap, and put the Dunlop's on marketplace!
