Did anyone else just fall out of love with their GX?
Please no hate. I’m not trying to hate on the vehicle. If you look at my older post I was madly in love with this SUV when it came out. I waited forever and was happy when it arrived. But the terrible clunky transmission, the brake squeals (which just got fixed after waiting 6 months for parts), and the abysmal gas mileage have gotten to me. For about the last 6 months I’ve had two experiences where I’ve taken off turning out of an intersection across traffic and I completely lost power. Like the transmission or something didn’t kick-in and I was almost t-boned before power was restored. Twice to the dealership, they can’t find anything wrong. People still pull me aside in parking lots and tell me how they love it, and ask what I think. After having to fill-up twice this weekend, I think I’m just done. The max fuel efficiency I’ve ever gotten is 14.3 mpg. I fell in love with this as purchased as my daily driver. For context, we also have a ‘25 Escalade and a ‘25 Rubicon. The Rubicon drives harder, but you’d expect that out of a jeep. The Escalade is incomparable except maybe to our previous GLS 450. But it’s too big for a lot of parking decks, etc. Problem I see is that the only thing out there comparable is the Defender, and people seem to have nothing but problems with them. I love my Lexus dealership, amazing service. I’m thinking maybe about looking at the Cayenne, which sucks from a local dealership perspective. Or, the wife likes the G 550, but I hear they ride very rough.
