👋 Welcome to the Lexus GX 550 Forum! Please post an introduction thread!

[Luxlvoe]

Hello, I finally purchased my GX550 after waiting 2 years (had to pay off my 23 IS500 first). I purchased it from Mission Viejo last Friday after waiting a month for the vehicle to be build and delivered. I only wanted White in luxury plus trim.
I’m a Lexus girl here in Southern California, I owned a 2018 IS350 fsport that I traded in and purchased a 2023 IS500 fsport. I currently own the IS500 and now my new Lexus the 2026 GX550 luxury plus.

Hi everyone...expecting to take delivery of our GX550 OT+ in September. Currently driving a '22 Bronco Outerbanks (mine) and Merc GLE450 (Wife's). We love the Outerbanks but want something with with a little more lux for cross country travel. We previously owned an FJ Cruiser and loved it. Looking forward to September...

Hello All, Been lurking for a while. From NE Florida, put a deposit down with Lexus of Jax in January, finally got my allocation beginning of June, Build date 11 June and now on 'Sakura Leader' in route to Panama Canal, expected arrival @ Jax terminals 8 July, should have her by end of July/beginning of August. Not much planned post delivery for now except PPF and ceramic coating done locally. OT+ Incognito Bi-Color. Will be mostly a road car with some excursions on the beaches of NE Florida. Trading in a 14 4Runner, be sad to see her go.

Hi. Currently driving a car (Honda accord) in NC. Looking to purchase my first suv. Really focused on the gx 550 luxury plus or overtrail plus. Considering the tx, but visually the gx is way more appealing to me. Thanks for the add. Thrilled to be a part of this forum.

Knoxville here. Owned tons of vehicles over the years. Decided on a GX after a lot of research and plan on keeping it a LONG time.

Mine arrived at the dealership over the weekend. Here is the first pic, through the fence

Hi all - just registered.

I've been a 15-year Jeep guy and I've done a fair amount of off-roading with my Wrangler. It's getting a little long in the tooth, however, and I decided I needed a new machine for the off-roading I do.

Looked at the Land Cruiser and absolutely hated the battery placement for the hybrid engine, so decided to go GX. Since they're difficult to get, I looked at lightly used ones and found this one 15 miles from my house:

Love, love, love the vehicle. It's difficult to get used to it after 15 years in a Wrangler.

Major off-road build going to be done to it with Dissent. I'll likely start a build thread on it. Located in the Bay Area, and do a lot of my off-roading in the Sierras, hills a couple hours south of here, and in the Nevada desert.

Hey guys! Thanks for the add. I’m in Georgia. Currently have a ‘23 GX460 and a ‘21 Ram 3500. Just put a deposit on a Nori OT+ with no Cool Box, no Traffic Jam Assist and without moonroof. We’ll see if I luck up. I plan to set it up for some off roading, camping and exploring. Look forward to learning a lot from you guys.

Picked it up Thursday. Exactly what I wanted. 2 issues tho. Fuel tank size is maddening (I knew that going in but was really illustrated on the 18 hr drive from the dealership back home) and the wireless charger charges ridiculously slow.

The tank size is the only thing I knew going in would be a problem. That's why I'm putting three Rotopax attach points on mine for off roading.

The tires are frustrating on the OT+ given that Lexus picked a tire that is not the same as a normal Toyo - they last about 13k miles in my case before the tread is gone. That and the fuel tank are my only real irritations.

Good morning! I took delivery of my 2026 Atomic Silver OT+ last week and I absolutely love it. So far I haven’t experienced anything negative that earlier years have experienced. I live 2 miles up a paved winding hill and am looking forward to seeing what this can do with the winter conditions. I am in Alaska. I enjoy this site for all the information it contains. Thank you all!
