    2024 Lexus TX 500h F Sport AWD: Review

    |

    Sometimes, in this business, you see a model name come across your desk and think, “Meh, I already had that.” In this case I just reviewed the 2024 Lexus TX 350 a few months ago. However, this TX 500h F Sport Performance Luxury is a different thing altogether. Well, I mean, it’s the same, but…

    In the studio pictures I shared in my original post about this new to me Lexus GX 470, this beast of a machine looked impressive. But things are not always what they seem. No matter what the seller may say, there will always be some additional issues with a car that is over two decades…

You can read about it here (part 1), here (part 2), here (part 3), and here (part 4). But there were also some things about it that put it into my…

    2024 Lexus TX 350: Review

    |

    The three-row SUV segment has been known to absolutely print money for automakers, which makes it a bit of a surprise that Toyota hasn’t built more under the Lexus badge. Sure, the big truck-like options like the GX and LX have had that option for some time, and they did cram a 3rd row into…

    What’s the Difference Between the Lexus TX and the Toyota Grand Highlander?

    |

    Recently, Toyota introduced two new vehicles – the Grand Highlander and the Lexus TX. The Grand Highlander is a slightly longer version of the venerable Highlander, the vehicle that so many have settled for because the significantly more functional Sienna minivan doesn’t match their desirable lifestyles. The Lexus TX is a more opulent version of…

    One major aspect of the quest to make a properly capable off-road rig out of my 2018 Lexus GX460 has been improving and increasing protection from the things that try to damage it on the trail. With a big, Aussie-style metal bumper fitted up front, the next step was to ditch the stock running boards…

It has received mechanical, livability, armor, and technology updates thanks to many partners joining in on the project along the way.
