">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!!!!

Is the GX IPOD compatible? by cdfwife

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.

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.

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.

It should be better than 11, but don't be surprised if it is in the 15 mpg range in the city.

I'm looking for any information on the new 2007 GX 470. Release date, new colors, pricing? I haven't been able to find anyone to help me with this information. I'm ready to make a decision on the GX 470 but I would really like to know when the new models will be released before I pull the trigger.

Its kind of disappointing....
 
According to an editor over at clublexus...
 
Exterior:
Carryover
 
Interior:
• Available enhanced Rear Seat Entertainment System (larger 9” screen)
• Available Mark Levinson® DVD Premium Audio System
• Available upgraded Nav. system (fifth generation) with Bluetooth®, voice activation and rear back-up camera
• MP3/iPod® audio input plug
 
Mechanical:
Carryover
 
...and supposedly, no color changes, no wheel changes. I wished the Sport Package could be had with the brown wood interior trim (since almost impossible to order the KDSS-as a stand-alone option, getting to keep the brown wood trim).
