#1349 of 1460 ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL by hypnosis44 Oct 09, 2006 (10:11 am)
Does anyone know if the Adaptive Cruise control will be available on th LX470 as it is on most of the lexus line? If not, can it be installed after market? Thanks Replies to this message: cwilbs (Oct 09, 2006 10:14 am) hypnosis44 (Oct 09, 2006 3:54 pm) vcheng (Oct 09, 2006 10:47 am)

The laser or radar emitter/detector unit alone is about 1700 to 2000 dollars, plus any other parts thatwould be required.

Replying to: cwilbs (Oct 09, 2006 10:14 am) The Adaptive Cruise control reads the distance from you to the vehicle ahead and maintains a constant distance as the car speeds up or slows down. It will also brake and decelerate if another car or object suddenly appears in your lane. I had it on my briefly owned 2005 Sienna - it's a great system! Other Toyota lines also have it.   Phil
#1353 of 1460 The LX should have EVERYTHING, no? by gteach26 Oct 10, 2006 (9:35 am)
The lexus LX makes me scratch my head at times.   This SUV "should" have EVERY single option known to man.   It "should" have keyless entry, adaptive cruise, HID headlights, parktronic, rear camera, FOLD FLAT third row, etc. etc. etc.   Instead some of these features are not available. WHY?   It does have an expensive "nightvision" option that to me doesn't seem like a very useful item to most drivers. Again, WHY???   From all accounts this is one of the best built automobiles EVER made. I've driven it a few times and it is buttery smooth and OOZES quality.   Yet looking at it during the car show the other day it just seemed outdated and "forgotten" by Toyota.   Why?????   Toyota, make it an 80K suv if you have to but THROW EVERYTHING into it!!!!

Replying to: gteach26 (Oct 10, 2006 9:35 am) Because the replacement is around the corner.   And it can't have a fold-flat third row because of the solid rear axle -- no room for it. Replies to this message: gteach26 (Oct 12, 2006 8:12 am)
