I have an 07. zero problems ever. The suspension rolls a bit and the acceleration is very sensitive but it is a beast and a very nice vehicle.

Cons: Price

Obviously it will not ride like a car based SUV. Often purchasers in this market are shocked and react negatively to a body-on-frame SUV riding like a body-on-frame SUV.

It is not great on fuel economy.

However, this is your Lexus variant of the 4Runner, with significant capabilities and Toyota's bulletproof, legendary reliability. If I were shopping in that segment, that's my candidate to beat (or a loaded 4Runner - it would be close between those 2 just because of my own Toyota bias).

(ETA: A mid-00s LX remains the nicest, quietest vehicle in which I've ever ridden.)
