    Plastic Hitch Cover

    I’m just leaving mine off. Don’t tow often but cracked around where one of those pop out things go. They are to hard to get out.

    Enhancing basic storage in driver/passenger area

    This works pretty good but seriously impacts back seat. I out it on passenger side so I can reach it. I especially like the dual water bottle holders. https://a.co/d/i6LqqGx

    HAM/FRS/GMRS/CB Radio Install

    Yep. Maybe too much electronics in the car. And they are likely being paranoid. I’ve used handheld gmrs inside cab with no issues.

    Towing mirrors solved!

    Not cheap. Hour quality? Much wind noise? (not that you can avoid it)

    Walk-away Auto Lock?

    All I found was the rear door walk away lock feature (second button). But if dealer can make it work like my Honda walk away lock did I’d love that.

    GX550 Real World MPG

    I didn’t reset my meter for the first 3500 miles and average 17.4 miles per gallon On a 40 mile trip to work mostly highway I turn off the car and it says I got 20.4 miles per gallon not bad. And other people have shown that the cars mpg seems to be a little bit low from what the measured...

    Climate and Shortcut menus

    While these 2 "buttons" in the middle of the climate control area (sorry no pic handy) are seemingly useful, the choices they put there are most ridiculous. I mean how many people change the layout of their Heads Up Display that often? It is more set it and leave it. Climate one has a couple of...

    Drive mode isn't sticky :-(

    It should also stick in Custom - how can we file a bug report or feature request with Lexus? This could easily be fixed by a software update.

    Drive mode isn't sticky :-(

    I love that they have a Custom drive mode option. I set mine to Economy engine but standard Air and Comfort suspension. However when I set it, every time I turn the car off it returns to Standard (or whatever it is called) mode! Really annoying. I haven't tried to see if it sticks in Economy...

    Squealing Brakes 550 Overtrail

    Mine only does this when backing up in morning and no other time. I attribute this to the quick overnight rust I can get being near the ocean. This happened on some earlier car (but I haven't looked to see if there is any rust on the rotors in the morning).

    Can’t Hear Siri or Lexus Assistant Over Radio

    It is a known issue with Apple CarPlay and some newer vehicles that use the same head unit. Had it on my Toyota Grand Highlander too. Same on Music in CarPlay but not on playing Audiobooks. It is supposed to reduce the volume but not pause it. I'd rather it pause it. I'm trying to get Apple to...

    HAM/FRS/GMRS/CB Radio Install

    What about the warning in the manuals that you should not install any kind of 2 way radio as it may interfere with the cars operation? They sound pretty serious about it but I can't believe that you cant' do such a thing.

    What I can’t stand about my GX - Part Deux

    So far my biggest issue is with storage up front. Far too few cubbies. And with cool box no center console - where do you put stuff that normally goes in there? We put it in the cool box. No eyeglass holder?!? Poor glovebox, things keep falling out of it when we open it. Too hard to get to...

    GX O+ Delivered! All-out build starting now!

    Aren't you bothered by weight increase with all that? At 1500 lbs cargo I am - but mostly because I to and have a 650 lb tongue weight on my trailer. I guess without that all would be good. Also I saw in a thread here somewhere that the Wescott Designs roof rack had very low wind noise.

    🛠️ Member Build Overtrail Updgrades

    While I'd like to replace front and rear bumpers, mount a winch I'm concerned about weight. Only about 1,500 lb of cargo and my trailer is 650 lbs tongue weight so after that and 2 passengers things get a bit tight on weight if you add a couple hundred pounds more (not to mention losing gas...

    What I can’t stand about my GX

    it can be changed? where did you find out that (so I can show my dealer if they balk)? I loved that my Hondas did that and Toyota nor Lexus would do so.
