Pros: Build Quality, ride, luxury
Cons: A bit sluggish
The Bottom Line: If you want a absolute Top of the Line SUV, look to the LX470. Because you cannot find anything thats better manufactured than this vehicle.
We found a used LX470, and traded up from the LX450.
I love the 470 style and ride. The 4.7L V-8 is the same engine as my 2002 Tundra, however is seems much more sluggish in the 0-60 test. It's more likely that is is much heavier than my Tundra. ... read more
