@@LexusGX460-OFF-ROAD I just took delivery yesterday of a 2023 GX 460, base model with the premium plus pkg which includes the ML sound system. It was just under 68K, drive off, here in Houston. Right now I’m at the meticulous care stage of ownership, but I do plan to off road and beach bunny it down the road. Mine is pearl gray with the sepia interior. I bought a new 470 nearly 20 years ago and can’t believe how much the vehicle has changed. Enjoying your channel!
yes it is more of a downhill crawl feature... crawl meaning under 10mph... for mountain highways just set cruise control at your desired speed and the transmission will automatically downshift to control your downhill speed from running away on you ❤️ 😃 ✌️
Can you use the DAC without putting the vehicle in 4low? How fast is the highest speed the vehicle will travel or is able to travel while inDAC? Last question is, can you or would it be advisable to use that feature say coming down a continuous steep paved roadway covered in a lot of snow? There is a resort where we ski at and it's really steep getting off the mountain. I'm always scared driving downhill because i feel like the truck is going to slide off the road.
Thanks for the video i have a question that you may can help, my 2023 Lexus go 460 makes a grinding ( binding noice ) when vehicle is cold and engage it to 4L it doesn’t seems normal do you have any idea why? Please help and thanks for the videos
Just got gx 460 and binge watching! It's the last of V8.
Thank you... enjoy 😉 and thank you for subscribing
same here got a clean 2015 base in gray can’t wait to take it off road

😆 🤣 😂 😹 ... 😢
Lmfao seriously watched that more than I should have
Great video! Much more helpful than anything I've seen so far in terms of demonstrating the downhill assist.
If it was anyone else, I would've said, "Dude, vacuum your damn car!" 🤣 But in your case, you show real 'dirt-cred' another nice video!
😆... I don't think we've ever washed it yet since new lol
@@LexusGX460-OFF-ROAD So, you just bought it for the wrecking then?lol😅

Most informative video yet.
Thanks. I needed this. Not really an off-road type of person but if I need it...
Thank you 💓 .. Please let us know if you'd like more beginner info we'd be happy to produce a video on your questions or concerns ✌️
@@LexusGX460-OFF-ROAD did you do one on tires. specific tires for road and offroad and size options for stock rims and setup?
@@sparc0man soon we will.. we did a video on the stock GX michelins... we are currently testing the BFG KO2S

It amazes me how that vehicle can be driven like a military Hummer. You look like you’re tearing through the Hindu Kush in a luxurious family vehicle.
It's technically a Landcruiser Prado and people simply abuse them offroad in Africa and the Middle East 😆

@@billballeza377 Congratulations on your GX460. If you have any questions or interests please ask and we will donor best to make a video 😃 ❤️
Since DAC utilizes the ABS system, does us of DAC help reduce break wear or do breaks wear the same if using the break pedal to slow down?
Omg I feel so bad for your luxury interior there’s dirt everywhere!

@@LexusGX460-OFF-ROAD that terrain looks a lot like what I saw at Ft. Irwin when TDY there years ago…are you taping near there?
‘23 460 Newbie here…So, DAC is something to be used only off-road in slow terrain, not for a mountain highway? TIA.

as I recall DAC needs 4L... 4L also slows the gearing ⚙️ down which slows your speed... not much will defeat ice/snow... use extreme caution ⚠️

So do I engage the rear differential locker before 4 low? Or is this not necessary
GX460 has no rear locker, it has a center locker
@@LexusGX460-OFF-ROAD my bad. But still- do that first or no?
I read the owners manual and did not appear to be necessary to have the center locker engaged before engaging 4lo
Can we also lock the differential as well along with 4L?
yes you can lock the center differential in 4L or 4H ❤️
Stock suspension still? When it’s time for a new one would you stay stock or change?
We love stock! best of both worlds when combined with the KDSS... but that's just our preference! ✌️
Question: Why is the tire pressure higher on your spare?
dealer probably set them all at 40 psi or something absurd... let them down to the proper 32psi and was too lazy to do the spare 😅
Toggling DAC on and off does not require being in neutral.
