Still here because its a TANK and will outlive any and all competitors by ages .
I convinced my wife to choose this over Denali and Escalade. So far we love it. 15-16mpg around town and we’ve averaged 18mpg on 200 mile highway trip so far on the factory 21 inch wheels running 80-81mph. I cancel the cruise control on long steep inclines so it won’t drop a couple gears and maintain speed with my foot. Reliability and Resale were major factors as well. Also we added a Lsailt Apple CarPlay device to give it a modern feel since it’s not offered from the factory. Smooth, quiet ride.
It's a nice truck, JustHavingFun. One of the few remaining large SUVs with luxury and off-road chops. Enjoy it and thanks for watching!
Can you post yours bro
Is the infotainment touchscreen? Or uses the mouse pad beside the shift gears?
@@Lion_King_143 touch pad. Switching to Beat Sonic new wireless CarPlay system for the LX.
By far the nicest car presentation I've seen so far.. straight to the point and engaging .. thank you 🙏
I appreciate your comments! Thanks for watching!
Just got a 21 LX, its awesome
Congrats and thanks for watching!
just bought the '18 LX with 8k mileage only .
I have a 21 LX Sport with RC interior and absolutely love it. Before the LX I had the 20 GX, and although I love the power on the LX better than the GX but LX is showing signs of it's age. I have put 21k miles in a year on mine but I am excited for the new 23 RR Sport and have placed an order for one.
Nice! You'll love the redesign of the '23 LX, tayyab mujtaba. We just posted our review of the 2022 about a month ago so check it out if you get the chance. ruclips.net/video/rV2Bq86Ypdk/видео.html Thanks for watching!
I can always count an an excellent review from Chris, even on vehicles I would not ever consider buying.
You da man, R. Brown! 👍🏾💪🏾🔥
Good review, how do you adjust climate control from 2nd row if someone’s sitting in the middle? I like it, you can feel the good build quality is so solid and quiet in the interior
It can still be adjusted from the main infotainment screen, so 2nd row passengers will have to ask permission if they can access the console. 😅 Thanks for watching, Fou Uili!
Are you recording this by yourself or do you have someone with you?
The camera work is really really good, specially the wide angle cameras.
Also, what cameras are you using for this? The clarity is amazing!
Thanks, Usman Tariq. This review was recorded entirely by me. I use a Sony a7c as my primary camera, a Panasonic HC-X920 as b-cam, a GoPro Hero 8 for driving commentary and a Hero 3 Black for driving B-roll. I'm happy to hear the quality upgrade is noticeable. The Sony cam is fairly new and I'm still learning its ins and outs. 😅 Thanks for watching!
@@AutoAcademics You're welcome brother. Wow you're using so many different cameras, that's really interesting. Yes the quality difference is very visible. The clarity of the image, the HDR (specially when you were recording from inside the car, you can clearly see the outside scenery with sky and inside of the car at the same time which was really pleasant to the eyes), the wide angle lens in the back seat (really gives you a good perspective of the car and it wasn't distorted or fish eyed) and the fact that you've recorded all this in 60fps is really cool! I'm guessing, you also do all the editing by yourself.
Anyway, great review. Hope you reach 100k soon. Best of luck! 👍
@@usmantariq7997 Sure do! Guess you could say I'm on all sides of the camera. 😂 Thanks a lot! I appreciate it. 👍🏾
YOOOOOOO …. I REALLY wasn’t feeling Lexus trucks like that… but BRO!!!!!!! 😳
I like this LX. However, I am glad Lexus (Toyota) is finally redesigning it.
It is WELL overdue, canonlybeme4life. We'll have to see if it'll still be as ruggedly capable as this current gen or if they simplified things based on the American market. Definitely looking forward to driving the new one, tho. Thanks for watching!
It is fun and luxurious to drive. What is more, it is trouble and problem free unlike luxury SUVs in its clasd. The only snag is the price.
Thanks for watching!
If a person was going to tow heavy trailers etc and would be going on rough roads this is a good vehicle for that use, otherwise a suv non body on chassis , unibody vehicle would be good.
Very true, Santill Brezon. Most people do not need the full capabilities of trucks like this. But if they do, this is one to consider. Thanks for watching!
Such a beautiful SUV. Sad to hear the Land Cruiser will no longer be sold in the US
Yeah, it'll be made everywhere else, but no longer in the U.S. (or I guess North America), AbsoluteMdot. Thanks for watching!
That’s a technological beast with an oooogly grill. Great review - you went to work on this. Now for black shoes LOL
Ha! Thanks, Drax68!
A beautiful vehicle inside and out with a lot of bells and whistles, but a 100k is steep for most people.
Listen there’s never going to be a truck built like this in 2025
Those powered third row seats looked impressive!
Yeah, they look cool. Functionality is questionable, though. Thanks for watching, Ben!
That design came out in late 2007!
I own a 2009 and they still work perfectly. Everything still works perfectly...
Does anyone know can u use REGULAR OCTANE. or do u have to use PREMIUM
Yes you can run 87 in these. same drivetrain as the tundra. Lexus does this for marketing and a couple more HP when advertising.
Great video i like the vehicle but i will keep my 2019 4Runner trd off road premium
Meus parabèns pela apresentação dos carros, sucesso ai..
For over 100K and has mediocre graphics, too few powered folding seats, too much brake travel, and truck-like steering, this will be a deal breaker for lots of well healed customers, I believe.
Thanks for the honest review, as usual, Chris.👍🏻
And that's why they make Escalades and Navigators, Ron LHeureux. But for those who prefer that old school, rough and rugged feeling... and off-road capability, here ya go!
If I may be totally transparent, you get used to those quirks after a few days, and it's not as big of a deal, similar to when you drive a Wrangler. But if you're used to something that's been more refined, such as a Suburban, Escalade or Expedition, you'll notice the difference immediately. Thanks for watching!
@@AutoAcademics Always.
Apple android car play?? What a beast
A 6k pound beast, no wonder it only gets 14mpg.....my Acura MDX isn't much better with a V6 at 16mpg
😂 That's rough, David T. But to be honest, numbers like that were fairly normal up until the last few years. Gotta pay to play! 💪🏾 Thanks for watching!
Yes but it's not a Lexus - lol - it's a Honda
You don’t kno what people doin in they lx570. I’m sure it’s people goin off road.
Boa tarde e bom pôr do sol aqui no Brasil, você é parente do Stevie Wonder?
Sexy vehicle
Nice, but very 90s.
IT looks dated, shitty roof 20 inch rims lol
There are optional 21s available, Robert F White Jr., but our tester didn't come with them. Thanks for watching!
@@AutoAcademics still small for a vehicle that size but the vehicle has it's fans I'm sure they will sell
@@himswol But then they'd be no good for off-roading. 😉
@@AutoAcademics Yeah but i've never seen anyone driving one off road.
@@himswol EXACTLY. 😂 That's what makes it so crazy. But most Wrangler and Land Rover owners don't take their trucks off-road, either.
