I planned on getting a NOCO Air10 for Black Friday and was wondering if I could use it with my 460. The product recommends a "12V Port to include a minimum 15A Fuse" but on my car and the manual, it says 12V/120W so it would be 10A. The air compressor uses 138W motor power but it also says 10A Max Amps. This is what I am confused about. I assume I can't run this off my car cigarette lighter port. Are there other small portable air compressors I should be looking at or can I do anything to rectify this situation?

And will see if I get any bites. Maybe I'll get lucky and someone wants to move a vehicle this weekend.

Looking for a premium , under 50k miles, with bucket seats and not black exterior nor black/Grey interior. Would prefer red interior but would be OK with the sepia or brown.

We have an option to get the Lexi’s GX in nori green with the saddle tan interior.

What is everyone’s thoughts about this color? I’m personally on the fence, but do like the green with the tan interior for sort of a vintage look. I’m still unsure! Thoughts on this color?

When looking over a used GX460 (Gen2), how can you check if it currently has the valley plate coolant leak ? can it be done using a borescope ?

I was looking through the owners manual and most of the fluid changes are dependent on severity of driving. What if you don't take it if road and having normal driving conditions balanced between highway and city. Maybe will put on 8-10K miles per year. This is a 'new to me' 2021 with 28K. Next oil change is scheduled for 30K since it was just done

Has anyone had a positive experience buying a new GX?

I’m in the market for one but unfortunately the dealers I’ve contacted love to play games. E.g., market adjustments, required dealer add-ons, etc.

I’d love to see if there are any straightforward dealers for the GX right now.

Located in AZ but would be willing to ship the vehicle.

Is this a legit site to buy the beatsonic unit from?

Hi All,

I have been able to be added to waitlists (for a gx550) without a deposit now (1 dealership still holding out). This last waitlist I was added to, required I be in person and they had me sign an "Approval" page (nothing official or any terms listed, just an OTD price with MSRP, Addons, etc). Since the paper didnt have any legal standing I didnt care what they put on there. I plan to try to negotiate the addons when/if I'm allocated a car. Was that the wrong move, should I have tried to negotiate then? I'm assuming they wouldnt add me on the list if I didn't sign.

For those that recently got a 550 were you able to negotiate at all? Did they give you all the pricing with Addons included and were you able to remove/negotiate them? Thanks

Edit: Here are the "required" addons https://imgur.com/a/47GaXeR

Anyone know what this noise might be? Hear it when cold start. Usually stops after car is warm.

I’m in love with the idea of buying a GX and doing the prado conversion to it, but realistically I can’t really afford it at my current salary level.

I’m in the military so if all goes well by 2030 I’ll be making more, but im worried that a 2022 by that point won’t be as “cheap” as a 2016 is now.

Am I doomed?

I’m debating whether to replace the 22s or just just get them powder coated black. Anyone done this and have photos? Would love to see!

Hi all last week my 21 Grand Cherokee was hit and is most likely totaled. I love the quiet and comfortable ride of the Grand Cherokee but I would like my next car to be something more reliable. I believe the GX460 may be that vehicle. I was wondering if there are any model years to avoid or what model year may be best. So far I've been considering the 2020 model year thorough 2023. Also any owner input on real world mpg and cabin noise/comfort would greatly be appreciated.

Per Google/the official specs, I’m guessing I’m out of luck… but thought I’d ask you fine folks who may have better insight: my garage door is ~76.5 inches tall, and the GX 550 height range is listed as 75.4” - 76.18” (upper range is OT I believe)

A lower non-OT model, would give about 1 inch of clearance, which is too risky in my mind. But I didn’t know if — for example — those online specs account for a larger tire or include a roof rack or bars etc. etc. and (wishful thinking) the actual height is an inch or two lower.

I also plan on calling a dealer to check, but if anyone has any thoughts, I super appreciate it. Thanks!

Edit: to clarify, just the door opening is that low

Hello GX Family,

I have a 2022 gx460 wilt 10k miles. I noticed a oil leak(minor) around the rear differential and it seemed to be leaking from the fill bolt but I’m not 100% sure yet. Cleaned the leaked differential fluid around and I wanted watch it for couple of days and see where exactly is it coming from.

Are we required to re-torque the fill bolt after 10k miles? I thought once torqued, it stays that way unless you remove it.

Just fyi, I haven’t towed or took it off-roading yet. Just work commute since I bought it in 2023 and it had 4k miles at the time of purchase.

Any tips are greatly appreciated.

Thanks for your time.

Heard from my dealer today (I’ve had a deposit on a 2024 Lux + for 6 months). Said they probably wouldn’t get one in before year end. But they have no word on when 2025s will be available. Since there’s already so few coming in, there won’t even be an option to get a leftover 2024 into the new year because they likely won’t be being built after this month, and it’s such a long shot to get my trim in the next allocation. I don’t know what to do. Anyone have any different info?

I need an SUV, is it worth it? Currently have a ‘15 3IS250 as daily that’s paid off(providing context of my current situation).

Talk me into/out of it.

Has anyone purchased the Lux+ trim and swapped out the rims but re-used the stock 22inch tires?

I was cleaning underneath the front passenger seat and noticed this unit hanging by its wires. I couldn’t figure out how to mount it back into place. Could anyone kindly share a pic of how it should be properly seated? Thank you in advance!

Picked up my 550 this past weekend and wanted to say thank you for all the insights in this community. Here is what I learned:

• Lexus’ and its dealers official position is that the 550 is currently not being discounted. The factory is artificially making less so the prices stay high. That being said, the dealer itself can do some discounts. I was able to get the cross bars thrown in for free ($440 value) as well as a credit on the extended warranty (8% off). Another dealer said they could throw in the $1000 college grad discount even though I didn’t qualify, it was too late I didn’t want to wait to find another vehicle.

• If you put a deposit down, and the dealer finds your vehicle and it’s still at the factory it is possible for you to remove the factory or dealer installed add ons. You’ll have to fight hard but it’s possible.

• My dealer, who is located in a wealthy county, said about 20% of their GX buyers pay cash. They are seeing their regular clients leave their money in the market because the returns are better than the trade off of 6.9% interest.

• 735 credit score the rates were 6.9 from Toyota financial, 800 credit got the rates to 6.85%. This was with putting a large cash deposit down.

• There are some cool features that come in all models, like the hotspot, the remote car start through LTE/5G. As well as tracking the vehicle through the mobile app.

• The heads up display is actually nice, glad it was included.

• It took 8 weeks from deposit to delivery from Japan.

Good luck everyone.
