We ordered and took delivery of a new 2023 Defender 110 Dynamic-X about this time last year. Out of the year of ownership, it has been in the shop for a total of about 2.5 months. It has left us stranded twice, and once, I had to have it flat towed to the dealership. We really like the Defender...
I enjoy watching MotoGP the most, but for some reason, I just forget about it. I watch a lot of Formula 1 because I have friends that throw watch parties for those races. I'm going to set my DVR to record MotoGP now that I'm thinking about it.
I'm interested in adding some mud flaps to ours. I'm surprised Lexus doesn't offer mud flaps as an accessory since the Land Cruiser has a substantial mud flap option.

TheTopher talks about the ride differences in his experience between the different trims in the video below starting at about the 18:30 mark.

This week, Texas Truck Channel will compare the ALL NEW 2024 Lexus GX550 Overtrail directly against its Toyota Truck cousin, the 2024 Toyota Tacoma TRD Off Road, at the 18th annual Toyota Jamboree in Gilmer, Texas.
If that's the case then maybe there is a part number for these Overtrail fenders so that they can be purchased from the dealer and added easily to other trims levels.
Welcome from your neighbor over here in Fredericksburg! The Luxury+, Overtrail, and Overtrail+ are the only trims that get the Adaptive Variable Suspension. I would imagine that suspension upgrade and tires would make the biggest difference on how the new GX handles on-road and off-road. The...
I'm a huge fan of grab handles on the inside of a vehicle, and I am happy to report that the new GX 550 has many of them—not just for the passenger but also for the driver! Most vehicles these days either seem to have just the one above the window or on the A-pillar, or neither! I was so glad to...
