What the figures tell you
It uses the 4.7L 8-cylinder and all-wheel drive. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. All-wheel drive helps when pulling away on snow; braking and steering still depend on the tires.

Who the GX suits
It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next. It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one.
Space and size

Drive it on your own roads
Rent the GX for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one. A week with the GX answers more than any brochure. Try the GX on your commute, then decide.
Narrowing it down
Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Within the 2006 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which.
Running costs
A 1,000 km month costs roughly $274.80 at our price setting. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. Premium gas adds to the running cost compared with a car on regular.
