Thinking about buying this suv. Do the folks of the OT think this is a femine vehicle? I want an SUV. I'm over Tahoe's or any Ford or Jeep products.

No. This the Lexus version of the 4Runner - a manly choice.

(But, you should get a used LX in your price range - a Lexus Land Cruiser - )

Insanely capable offroad. Dead nuts reliable to 300k.

The only things not to like are the mpg and the rear airbags.

Edit: those saying get the landcruiser might wanna research their current gen platforms....

Well I feel sheepish.

In all seriousness, the gx460 is a land cruiser prado with more attention to detail and electronic gismos.

I'm more partial to the gx470s, that may be because they are slightly higher, it also may be because they are 60k dollars less

Rock solid, quiet like a bank vault.

Poor mpg, but who cares?

After having many cars on lifts and working on them extensively, I am unable to determine gender.
I will await the OT sports to help me out.

Not my style but it's a damn good vehicle. I do see a lot of women driving them but who cares. If you like it, get it!

Who gives a shite what people think about your vehicle. It's a badass SUV. You should look into the infinities; and the Toyota forerunners for lower prices

Had one ordered in 2010 and we were picking it up the day that Consumer Report's came out and said don't buy.

It was for my wife. We went across the road and bought her an MDX instead. She loves it.

I bought an older GX470 for the wife. I like it and would drive it for sure. Probably a bit of a soccer mom vibe, but it wouldn't stop me from driving one.

Looks like something a 60 year old debutante would drive. Maybe it would grow on me.
