I took in this '04 GX 470 on trade for REALLY cheap. Had some frame rust that had to be repaired, which I did. Polished the headlights and charged up the air conditioner. I figured it's really the pragmatic and practical solution to the "one truck/SUV thing in the family" now that we're getting rid of Mrs. Hire's V90CC, over the Touareg V10. Going to plate it and keep it for now.
One family owned, a good family friend actually, since new. Have all the records from Lexus of Richmond Hill, 227,000km, and it's the Ultra Lux model. Navi, three row seating, and Mark Levinson audio. Has new brake lines, new rear air shocks, and 2021 date-coded tires.
Our very own DriverJeff almost bought this thing, until we found him a '13 GX460 Executive that served his needs much better.
Issues to still address:
-Rear wiper busted
-Rear view camera not working
Honestly I'm kind of beside myself on letting the Touareg go. Have it MOSTLY sorted, but there's always one thing after another. I love how quirky and interesting it is, but the reality is that my wife might be driving this SUV occasionally and the probability of the V10TDI leaving her stranded is way higher than this GX470, which drives smoother than butter. I might just list both for sale and whichever goes first, goes.
