Would an LX600 Overtrail sway anyone over a GX OT+? Probably looking at more power, better MPG, EKDSS, real leather, plenty color options and an extra locker. A substantial interior refresh could do wonders. It'd be a true 300 series as well. Also would be 115k at least.

My bad, I meant 3.4TT Hybrid! Mind moving faster than my fingers

Even with three engine choices, it's interesting to note there isn't a 112.2 wheelbase vehicle with the 3.4TT V6....yet. Safe to assume we only see it on the LX?

ToMoCo will be offering a lot of overlapping BOF options from the 43k to the mid 85k range, right before the LX takes off into the 100s. They're just banking on one of them to suit any buyer's needs. And if we get the baby Land Cruiser, we're talking competing in the 30-43k range as well. If I...

PHEV Crown Signia would be extremely enticing. The practicality would be sky high.

R&T: Defender 130 vs. GX550 vs. G550

https://www.motortrend.com/reviews/2024-lexus-gx550-overtrail-plus-first-test-review/ Pretty good performance considering the size and aero. If I'm gonna pay that penalty at the pump, just bump me up to the full bore 409hp. Or iForceMax.

3rd delay?

With (almost) all the facts now known, Toyota made the right financial choice not bringing the LC300 over and instead bringing the LC250. They are way more successful in the mid-size BOF arena they're playing in than the full size one. If they brought the LC300 over, we wouldn't have the...

My enthusiasm for the MY24 GX Overtrail has slowly waned with the markups. Just so many small things they really should fix for the price they're charging. Now seeing the NX Overtrail for Japan, the wood on the door is 🤌. Put that in the MY25 GX with Palamino please. Add digital rear view and a...

24mpg could be a reason why the gas-only GX550 is rated for 17mpg combined. If it was 19 combined like the LX600/4WD Tundra(arguably should be) or more, 5 mpg difference might be a tougher sell. This is the only use case in the Toyota line-up where the optional hybrid engine is a cylinder...

9,000 lbs towing capacity for the Overtrail! That's a wild and welcomed surprise. Further separates itself from the LC250 and LX600(womp womp)

Wow, Mercedes SUV offerings are really bringing them down. Lexus actually has a shot at the luxury crown this year with the TX and GX on sale. Updated UX and PHEV RX/TX being on lots should help too. I still expect the passenger car sales to be dreadful.

I'm sure it's been posted somewhere, but there was an article that came out a couple weeks ago saying that Toyota still plans to develop new combustion engines in the EV era, albeit paired with "eco saving technologies". I assume that involves Lexus too, even with their 2030 statement. Toyota...

It's sad but I agree that GR seems way more focused of a sub-brand than F ever was. I've been disappointed/confused with the F brand and it's direction for a while. Around 2020/2021, there were rumors of this "F" blitz of products and plenty of Lexus spokespeople saying the future was bright for...

That's the bottom-line question. The answer should come in the form of the MY25 LX refresh. Because right now, a GX 550 looks like an amazing value proposition next to an LX 600. You get 90% of the flagship vehicle for 30-40k less.

https://pressroom.lexus.com/vehicle/2024-lexus-gx/ Final spec sheet here as well. -Curb weight: 5500-5700 lbs. -Cargo capacity of 90 cu.ft in Overtrail -Co-efficent drag is .399 (LX is .376) -0-60 in 6.5 seconds (LX is 6.9 but records as low as 5.9 in instrumented tests) -21.1 Gallon fuel tank...

I am surprisingly okay with this. Overtrail+ about 5-10k less than I feared.

Palomino for MY25 🙏
