Good thing you had that bumper! Sucks about the Lexus though!

So did you decide to keep it after it gets repaired?

 

[Armed in Utah]

yes...keeping the GX....

wife's DD......she hit the deer on her 12 mile commute to work

 

[Tex68w]

Yea I remember the story over on Mud, just wasn't sure what was going to come of it after insurance got involved. Glad it's gonna stick around.

Another beach stroll in the books.

I have a very nice condition 07 GX470 and it looks like I need to replace the air suspension. Recommendations?

~160Kmiles

Suspension was replace at around 100Kmiles.

Looks like it was an easy $100 electrical problem.

The old 200 LC was retired to the vacation house to live with the jeep. Would never use either as a DD...but yup, everyone is poor compared to somebody else!

Finally joined the club this Fall. We needed something a little more comfortable for long slogs on highway before getting off-road and the GX fit the bill.
2006 GX470 with 140,000 on the clock. Timing belt and water pump were done at 99k and tires are nearly new. Had maintenance records with the dealer that we bought it from since 70k miles and we are the third owner. Paid $10,700 and felt pretty good about it considering how prices have been lately. Obviously everyone in this thread already knows this, but I can't get over how comfortable this thing is on the highway and off. I am excited to get into it with a small lift, storage in the rear and eventually a small fridge and roof top tent.

 

[Tex68w]

They are indeed comfy rides and you got a good deal, congrats!
