    🛠️ Member Build Overland Build - 2025 GX550 - Prinsu/CBI, Airdown Gearup, Warn, Baja Designs

    I have the CBI with no gaps, my understanding is that the sides have adjustments, I would definitely reach out to CBI. My complaint is there is no way to access the winch

    Subwoofer Options and Issues

    Not a fan of under seat butt shakers. You get the feel of bass but it’s not a real audio improvement. There is a ton of room in the cargo on each side of the wheel well. The plastic wheel we’l bump outs are fake and hollow. A shop could open one up and make a stealth box for you and hide an...

    🛠️ Member Build Let the MODs begin! My new Overtrail

    Can we really consider a phone mount, screen protector, and window tint "mods"? Cool molding?

    2024 GX Engine Recall?

    I just tried to figure out how far I would need to go to be a couple thousand miles away from my home. LA is a little over 1k so that doesn't count, DC is 1,600 miles so that doesn't = a couple thousand. Cancun is 2,500 so that counts but I think I'd be better off flying there... That leaves...

    2024 GX Engine Recall?

    I think I'll get more headaches from reading a 10 page thread of people asking if their 9/24 build is affected than what I am going to go through. I'm going to drive it like a rental until I get a new engine.

    2024 GX Engine Recall?

    3/24 Build date with the recall, and not losing any sleep over it... Unless my GX blows up on a road trip between now and the new engine I don't see how this affects me beyond 2-3 days in a loaner, some goodwill from Lexus if I ever need it, and a brand new engine with extended warranty. The...

    Garmin Power Switch

    If Garmin made a physical switch that you could add in the cabin and also use your phone, that would change my mind.

    Garmin Power Switch

    I'm thinking about going to an SPod system.

    Garmin Power Switch

    Yes and this is worthwhile if you use scene lights. Alot of the time I forget I have my backlights or something on and realize an hour later I left them on and use the phone to turn them off. If I had physical light up buttons that were connected to the battery this would not happy. Overall...

    Garmin Power Switch

    I put a PowerSwitch on mine, it’s ok, wouldn’t do again. You have to have the app on your phone, anyone else drives your car they can’t use the lights. Physical buttons are way better and there are similar options with buttons. If you need to turn them on or off quickly you have to navigate to...

    Mark Levinson 21-speaker audio sounds terrible on the GX 550 Luxury +

    Mark Levinson 21-speaker audio sounds terrible on the GX 550 Luxury +

    I think alot of the issues people are having with the ML can be fixed by fading it a bit into the back seats. Centered, the sound stage is too far forward (typical of ML and new cars) as well as "narrow". In the drive seat you sound stage is between the center dash speaker and the left. Fade...

    Drove behind my own OT. Holy body role

    Feels like an overreaction to something that is common for this type of vehicle.

    Height of GX with Parking Structures/Garages

    You should go measure yours... Easier than people having to guess and calc based on trim, roof rack, rim/tire size.

    Replacement Fogs?

    Wondering if any companies like Baja designs will come out with retrofit pods for the stock fog light enclosures so that we can throw something like an S2 in there? or a pair of S2's on each side would be amazing. Just throwing this thought out into the universe hoping it comes true or maybe...
