| I am at 6000 miles since Jan 31. I am getting 15.9 mpg. I drive 50 miles r/t to work on the freeway, but with lots of stop and go. I have not seen much variation. I always use reg unleaded, just like I did in my MDX. | |

First, Voice activation system should be obsolete. This system is completely useless. Check out Acura(honda) on how voice activation should work. Second, While driving restrictions completely handcuff with this vehicle. While I agree with this in principle there needs to be changes. Third, Slight hesitation and "bucking" when coming to a stop. Can't explain it and Lexus has no answer for it. Fourth, Design is too similiar to older vehicles. My fault. I should have went with the X5 Fifth, MPG is horrible. I only use 91+ gasoline and i am averaging 13.8 mpg on highway and streets. If I could do it all over again would choose an 2007 X5.

| I average 17.0 mpg in my 07 GX around here on the California central coast. While driving it across country this past June, I averaged 19.5 mpg while doing 75 mph through Nebraska. I also got 418 miles to a tank of fuel. Of course it took 21.8 gallons to fill the tank. I figure the average miles per gallon by taking miles traveled and dividing it by the amount of fuel it takes to fill the tank. The onboard mpg computer likes to be optimistic. Than again, I've yet to see any manufacturer with an accurate mpg computer on their vehicle. | |
