#41 of 148 Xenons by lok888 Oct 04, 2003 (9:49 pm)
I like the idea of the xenon and HID headlights to light the road in the dark. I am not an engineer. But is it possible to make the windshield to reduce the headlight glaze of the oncoming cars or even sunlight... something like the auto dimming rearview mirror?
#42 of 148 3rd Row Side Curtains by lehighlexus Oct 21, 2003 (8:28 am)
Children are more likely to get killed by the airbag itself rather than the impact of the collision wearing a seat belt. I can understand why Lexus does not offer 3rd row curtains
#43 of 148 California emission control by jbraunil Oct 28, 2003 (11:56 am)
While I live in IL., I'm thinking of buying a GX in California in Feb, and driving it home. Does anyone know if there are any additions to the GX to adhere to Calif. emission standards that are not necessary anywhere else?
#44 of 148 New Nav system and KDSS by robertmfine Oct 28, 2003 (1:21 pm)
My sales manager told me that the new Nav system in production in Nov and for sale in Dec will have the backup video camera as it's only change now. Also he said KDSS will not be available until Dec build due in Jan '05.
#45 of 148 Dimensions of cargo area by tiggerguy Nov 02, 2003 (4:18 pm)
I'm seriously considering moving down from a full size SUV and it looks like the GX470 has the most to offer me. I cannot find any site that gives the actual dimensions of the cargo area.(behind the front seats to the rear gate.) I do occasional hauling (tables, etc.) and short of going to the dealership with a tape measure, can't get any info other than the overall cubic footage (77.5)If anyone out there knows these measurements I would appreciate it!
#46 of 148 Cargo Dimensions by chucky8 Nov 02, 2003 (5:50 pm)
Tigger,   Here are the dimensions I measured from my 2003: 62 long, 45 wide (inside the wheel well), and 41 high.   I love my GX, but hauling things other than people definitely isn't one of its strong suits. The layout is uneven and the 3rd row seats get in the way unless you remove them.   Good luck.
#47 of 148 Thanks Chucky by tiggerguy Nov 03, 2003 (1:48 pm)
Thanks for the info, Chucky! I would absolutely pull the 3rd row seats out and stash them till trade-in, I have no use for them. Looks like I'll have to find some 5 foot folding tables if I were to get one lol- I'm just sick of driving a full sizer that I only use to capacity about 4 times a year, I would rather treat myself to something like the GX470 and maybe get a medium size cargo trailer. It is kinda suprising that it has less cargo area than most in the mid size market, but it sure wins hands down in the lux dept. - better wait for a GVWR 6150 model for that trailer.....
#48 of 148 GX Pricing by wag100 Nov 03, 2003 (2:43 pm)
I was quoted $50,000.00 today for a loaded GX (MSRP $53,243.00). I live in the Southeast (TN). Is this pricing consistent with pricing seen in other parts of the country? Is this a fair deal? Any feedback would be appreciated.
#49 of 148 wag100 - GX470 price by shifty4 Nov 03, 2003 (4:53 pm)
I only got $2,500 off $52,700 MSRP. While not an especially good discount I needed to get 6150 GVWR model before year end and dealer claimed to have deposits for nearly all of his expected ships prior to year end. Anyway, I got my tax deduction sitting in my garage and since Uncle Sam is paying over 1/3 of it I felt I had better take it.

same here in NC, $3K off MSRP was best I could do.
