Before you sign for the GX
Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. Owners filed 39 complaints with NHTSA, most often about structure, air bags and unknown or other; have those parts checked. NHTSA lists 1 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed.
The figures, translated
The 4.7L 8-cylinder is what moves it, with all-wheel drive. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. With all-wheel drive, it pulls away more surely on slippery roads, though it does not stop any shorter.
Plan on about 47 litres per 300 km; the combined rating is 15.7 L/100 km. Driving 300 km costs roughly $82.44 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$5,500 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
Practical details
As an SUV, it sits higher than a sedan, which makes getting in and loading easier.
Who the GX suits
It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next.
Drive it on your own roads
Drive the GX on your commute before you commit to it. Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel.
The cost of driving it
A 1,000 km month costs roughly $274.80 at our price setting. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. The EPA estimates US$5,500 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Picking a year and a trim
Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person.
