Feels better to drive & more responsive than my 2018 Toyota Camry! Toyota really dropped the ball w/ their new 8-speed, it feels so clunky to drive but it gets amazing gas mileage!

      GX is a Land Cruiser Prado with some luxury upgrades.
      It's a luxury SUV that you can definitely take off road. People even lift them and use them for serious overlanding. If I didn't have a Jeep, a Forester, and a 4x4 Taco I'd definitely be looking for one to buy. 🙂

    I have a 2022 Lexus RX450h, and this vehicle handles like a dream. With 308hp, it gives the power whenever you need it at whatever speed. I was lucky to get this one for 2022 was the last year Lexus produced a Lexus RX with a V6. Love my RX450h and so far, no issues with this vehicle and I average around 25/30 MPG.
    It also took a while to get used to this high tech marvel for I upgraded from a 2014 RAV4 Limited AWD with 65K miles. It’s a great car with no issues except basic maintenance, and I gave it to my wife as a daily commuter.

    Lexus is ruining their brand with moving to 4-cylinder turbos for everything. I have a 2013 RX 350, and that V6 is an awesome engine. As Scotty says, it's all about physics. Smaller engine with a heavier vehicle, turbo ramming air into the engine, increasing pressure. Those things are doomed to blow up in about half the time.

It has 3 rows of seats and nearly all of the electronic features of the more expensive Lexus.

    Got that 2021 Highlander Hybrid XLE.
    30-33mpg, full leather, power everything, third row seating, and AWD
    Pretty much the best you can get all in one package.
    We are grateful for the decision every time we ride in it

    I currently have the 2010 Lexus RX350 and it's been great. Drove the new version while getting mine serviced and I enjoyed it but the visibility wasn't as good. When I compare it to the new Audi Q5 S I didn't think it handled as well. The Audi was grounded and more fun to drive.

    I'm actually considering a 2010-2015 RX 350 along with the 2015 onwards NX. I would also consider the 2nd gen 2007-2009 RX 350 or even the 2003-2006 RX 330, but that would probably need more technology retrofits & other upgrades to have the features I want & for it to have the look I want similar to the 2013 onwards RX or 2015 onwards NX. I would also make some visual & tech upgrades to any of the other models I mentioned

I recommend the RX for a family but if it’s just you and maybe one or two more people at most then then the NX has a lot of style and is a nice smaller RX

    I have this same 350 but it's 2017. The vehicle is incredible! But recently the rear wheel hub bearings went bad. It was making a roaring, growling, grinding sound. I took it to Firestone and they couldn't figure out what it was. So I went on Yt and Google and did my research and found out that these vehicles are notorious for this issue. Other than no issues and it runs like a top. 🤷🏾‍♂️
