    exactly what I said. She wants another NX or possibly RX :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

    with the NX 200t she had before, and ONE kid, that shit was already out of room. Can’t imagine trying to get two kids and all their shit in a tiny ass suv.

    whatever. I might just pay it off and it can be my new DD.

    Get the GX and a utility trailer just in case and you’d be good to go. Since adding our 17 GX I’ve been tempted to get rid of the Tacoma, it’s such an awesome ride

    I do haul the kids back and forth from daycare M-F now. So there is that too. She doesn’t really need a gas guzzling suv either.

    Indeed. I already have a utility trailer for towing. I expect the V8 engine in the GX will pull the tailer/load much better than the Tacoma and give my family of four more interior space and comfort inside. I'll need to find a way to provide more USB ports for my kids' devices, though.

    But the RX is much more car obviously.

    My wife traded her 2020 Subaru Outback Premium for a RX 350L. The Outback was great vehicle—roomy interior, large cargo area, huge infotainment screen and the AWD is unmatched. The Wilderness Edition is pretty rough looking.

    Well, I let my Tacoma go today and drove home in the GX. The most comfortable drive I’ve had in as long as I can remember! I said I wouldn’t modify the GX, but the 2020 grille conversion is interesting.

    Most of the parts you bought for the 470 will fit it right!? Your cheap expo rig just got a lot more expensive :rofl:

    Nope.

    if I take the 460 it won’t get touched really. Wheels and tires, small lift, roof rack. That’s all id want to do with it.
