Replying to: nedzel (Aug 02, 2006 12:34 pm) I have driven SUV since 1983 (15 in all) and have driven Full size Fords,Chevy,GMC,Cadillac. The last two were Cadillac's and I won't ever buy another one. The finish is just not there nor is the ride I think the Lexus has it all over the American made cars/trucks. I have checked the new Tahoe/Yukon/Escalade and I just wasn't happy with them. First of all the new Excalade has a 6.2 liter engine in it which I bet in a year won't be holding their value too much. Hey for that fact I'm trading in a 2005 and taking a killing on it and My White Diamond is in mint condition with 11,000 miles on it loaded to the max. I have never lost so much money on any vehicle in my life. I ordered the 06 GX and I'm hoping I can adapt to it being smaller. What it comes down to we need a truck but I'm tired of paying for the gas that this bid dog uses. Why anyone would put a 6.2 liter engine in a truck when the gas is going threw the roof is beyond me.   Sami Replies to this message: nedzel (Aug 07, 2006 7:53 am) jasp615 (Aug 10, 2006 1:39 pm) nedzel (Aug 11, 2006 6:23 am)
#102 of 148 HOT WEATHER QUESTION - HELP! by bobbio56 Aug 03, 2006 (4:16 am)
">been near 100 last few days....I notice the engine makes a racing sound and seems a bit lethargic off the line...called lexus dealer (which I think is not that good) and SM says it is extra fans?....anyone else noticing this?   Also, without recirculate on AC seems pretty weak over 90F   Please let me know your thoughts/experiences - i have an '04 loaded with 24k....   THANKS!!!!
#103 of 148 Is the GX IPOD compatible? by cdfwife Aug 04, 2006 (8:05 pm)
I am almost embarrassed to ask, but, can I plug in an ipod into my audio system? I figure it is time to get with the new technology. Is this as easy as I hope it is? And when I say easy, you are looking at someone who has never once operated the nav or the dvd system, so go easy on me.   On another note, happy to say the brake clunk is truly fixed. I did break down and use the premium gas in the GX, but it did not make a bit of difference (for me) and it did not increase my mileage.

Replying to: jasp615 (Aug 02, 2006 4:02 pm) I'm afraid that you won't get great gas mileage from the GX470. My 2003 4WD V8 4Runner is basically the same truck as the GX470 (same frame, powertrain, and undercarriage). I get 15 to 19.5 mpg. Overall, combined highway and suburban driving, I get about 17 mpg.

Replying to: nedzel (Aug 07, 2006 7:53 am) At lease I will get better gas mileage then I'm getting with the Escalade. Right now I'm getting 11 miles to the gallon. The truck is smaller then what we have now but I can't see us going much smaller. I'm really hoping that it's not too small for us. I guess I will know the end of Aug when we get it.   Sami Replies to this message: nedzel (Aug 11, 2006 6:23 am)

Replying to: jasp615 (Aug 10, 2006 1:39 pm) It should be better than 11, but don't be surprised if it is in the 15 mpg range in the city.
