Hello,
Just wanted to introduce myself. Here from Olympia, Washington. I'm a huge automotive enthusiast--current cars include a Highlander, R1T and a GT4; previously a M2 and big Subaru enthusiast.
Put a deposit for a GX Lux+ a week or so ago. Excited to read/watch the reviews once the embargo lifts on the 1st. That said, we are juggling between a people hauler TX500h F-performance and this GX550 Luxury + which are similar in price but differ significantly. We occasional carry more than 4 people but that is just a few times a year. Most of the time its just a family of four. What makes this decision hard is the significant fuel economy difference between the TX and the GX 27 vs 17 mpg, respectively and the towing capacity. We have a 21' boat with a dual axle trailer which is right at 5k--right at the max of the TX. The GX would seemly be the safer choice. However, we don't frequently tow long distances. For around town, we use the R1T which is an amazing local tow vehicle. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
