Funny , yes my 2017 papa pig is still giving relaxing pleasure even in horrid traffic . It’s old school driving , parking is unbelievable manoeuvrable , highway too easy to be speeding without any idea of your speed , on a cloud . Use the manual 6 speed occasionally for acceleration, and I pull a small RV on occasion very stable . Best wife simply loves it .

I got a 2020 certified for $42k back in May. With taxes it was 46k. It had 47k miles at the time. I’m very happy with it. It’s basically new at the time a new one would have cost me about 62k for the aspect I wanted. The only difference I see I no car play which doesn’t really bother me. I could have probably gotten a better deal if I waited but it has only lost about 2k in value since I bought it and I have out 8k miles on it. So far no issues

That is awesome my friend massive congrats on your purchase. I pray you don't have to use it either but it certainly is nice to have that peace of mind.

Great review, no car is perfect but the GX460 is better than most in terms of reliability. I’m averaging 18 to 20 mpg; compare that to Savage geese getting 21 mpg in the new Lexus RX. As always, try and get the latest year possible within a model run.

@pall5114 2 місяці тому
Great informative video. I have a new 23 460 GX, bought it for its history of reliability but you educated me on some potential major issues. Are the Timing chain cover leaks, valley coolant plate leaks, and transmission issues more for earlier years and did Lexus resolve them for later years? I asked my Lexus dealer during my service what it cost for these items, and he said $3-4K. Can anyone share what they paid for the timing chain leak and valley coolant plate leaks? Also, I read the transmission solenoid codes basically means you need to replace the whole transmission, costing around 7-8K. I am hopefully a long way from any major repairs but it is good to know in advance and worth an extended warranty. Thanks

Water intrusion, especially into the passenger side where the ECU is mounted. Toyotas are prone to leak the AC drain and the sunroof drain into the passenger foot well, to be sure, but those are easy to detect and fix. But there's more going on than these little problems. My son's GX460 has had the corroded ECU and associated wiring replaced and the car still needs to be towed after visiting a car wash. I have a 4Runner and I'm off to Home Depot today to buy some Damp Rid to help with the musty situation.

I think it's important for everyone to understand (although I mentioned this throughout the video) that these issues don't have to happen to everyone but they CAN happen. There's plenty of people who had no issues and this goes for any car make. My master tech has two benzes with 300k miles with no issues with either one. But it's important to note that used cars really are just rolling the dice and I want to protect consumers that don't have a lot of money.
@Gmonayy189 Місяць тому
That’s true, it is good to note this and highlight issues on any used car. It’s true Scotty and others make blanket statements but i do find it funny that all of the comments on your video are people with no issues. There always are issues on every vehicle. I like that you at least provide the perspective of leasing as most financial advisors or anyone like Scotty or older people would never. Even if it is leasing through your friend, but still.

I just did a nationwide search for a 2016-2018 GX with under 40k miles and omitted the accident vehicles, only 15 vehicles fit that parameter. Price ranges between $36k to $40k as long as you didn't pay more than that you're fine and perhaps + $2k for accessories Even if you overpaid it doesn't matter because they're getting rid of the dollar soon so if you like what you bought, just enjoy and relax.

@MeynMotorGroup 5 місяців тому
Paying cash would be the worst move on this as you would miss out on $3,500 in incentives. Best deal to negotiate is what AC is advertising. 12% off MSRP + $3500 lease incentive. Do a one pay lease for 27 months and buy the car after 27 months in cash this way you’ve taken advantage of all the credits and one pay lease means you’ve paid practically no interest. Use the free leasing calculator that I have in the description box

@MeynMotorGroup 4 місяці тому
@@johnandstephanie377 one pay lease is when you make all of your lease payments up front. The only reason you would want to do this is to reduce the interest rate on the lease so you’re wasting less money and building more equity. With some manufacturers or cars, even if you do a one pay lease it might not reduce the interest rate that much so it def doesn’t make sense in every situation. I wish ACs calculator would show updated interest rate for one pays. You can find out more on the leasehackr forum

@Gmonayy189 Місяць тому
@@johnandstephanie377definitely look into the full calculations as while you might have discounts by leasing, they might be offset by any interest, which would defeat any purpose. Also cars have the least problems when brand new (when leased). Lot’s of dealerships/banks in Texas have great financing options to offset the lower demand for cars in the past several months, sometimes very low interest rates. But honestly if you could just pay cash today I’ve noticed you can offer what you think it’s worth and walk away confidently knowing you’re only paying one party at one time. No complex math, just understand how much you can afford and you can get more than $3K off if you just pay what you want and get someone who’s willing.

@@MeynMotorGroup Not quite mate but the packing that they used to stop the dry socket has reduced it around 70%, which means you can control it with paracetamol vs no pain meds including super strong touching it at all. Once the gum closes over though and the air can't get down into the exposed nerves all should be good.

Gotcha yea I know what you mean glad it's at least under control and bearable 👍

The biggest problem with buying these vehicles used is you never know if they use premium fuel for the life of the vehicle. You can run regular octane for a while but eventually you can ruin the engine if you don’t use premium it’s called for. The only way you can avoid this find a rich person selling the vehicle because only then probably be sure to put premium in it it’s entire life.

Exactly

I don’t think you can damage the engine using 87 regular fuel. The computer compensates for the lower octane. The only drawback is a slight loss of power and slightly lower gas mileage. My opinion. But yes, if it were mine I would use premium.

Buying new makes a lot of sense with these GXs.

Yea my friend some really good discounts available right now and leasing incentive jumped up from 2k to 3500 which helps. Can save 20k with CPO but new is so much nicer 😅

Moat people who buy these used have overlanding in mind. Theyre dumping $20k in upgrades anyways.

Seriously, are there any vehicles that have zero mechanical problems? If someone isn't willing or able to tolerate an occasional repair, they should look into alternatives to car ownership. I don't understand the doom and gloom.
@MeynMotorGroup 23 дні тому
Just get a warranty that's really all there is to it. Or learn how to lease and dump properly.
