Hello all, I've been following this forum for a few months learning everything I can about the new GX550 (even read the 628 page manual). I drove a P+ and it was better than the Toyota 1958 and FE so it made my choice easy. Now the hard part is waiting for a Nori Green Luxury+.

I really want 6-7 passenger and like the clean look of the Lux+ wheels and fold away running board. The chance is low I mod or take this offroad. I had an FJ Cruser for 13 years and never did anything extreme.
What’s your reason for this ride over other suvs like x5/gle/q7 etc. Just curious. I’m on the same boat. I like the clean look of the lux+ and like the option of 3rd row and amenities. I wanted something more rugged “just incase” I needed it.
Oh and welcome!

Thanks. Mainly hopefully reliability and ruggedness. I loved the FJ because ive driven pickups most of my life.What’s your reason for this ride over other suvs like x5/gle/q7 etc. Just curious.

Not a Mercedes fan because wife got burned on a E350 with maintenance and depreciation. Ive never owned a BMW and havent test driven an X5 or X7 and still may but again worried about maintenance. I have an Audi SQ5 and will keep it (old supercharged one, so fun). The Q7 55 peaked my interest. It was faster, better ride/ handling and had about the same towing capacity as the GX. If you havent driven a Q7 55 i would advise you to.
