Juniper Dunes is near by, state OHV Park. Fun place. Plenty of other places along the Columbia as well. Surprised you never been.

When we used to visit we would just stay local with family and go float the river and do some fishing. Now that we have moved here I'll definitely start exploring more.
About a 4hr drive for me to Kennewick. So not too far.

Either of the 200 series.

Your question should be, "How much room do I need?"
There will be a big difference on interior space with each of your options, with the used 200 series (either LC or LX) having the most room.
And if you have any concerns about MPG, you may want to throw that into the mix for deciding too.
But overall, they are ALL awesome vehicles and I'd be happy with anyone of them, and do love my current GX460!
Thinking about it, didn't you just get a full size truck? If so, for myself, I'd go with a smaller rig and not the full size 200 series.
check out the latest review of the 550 by care care nut. His biggest concern appears to be the increase in complexity and cost of ownership.

After talking about what we really need in her next vehicle, having more room is a big priority. So it's down to the 2017+ 200 series or 2017+ LX570. We all know the 5.7 V8 is bulletproof and it would help with towing the travel trailer if we wanted a better ride. MPG isn't a concern so the new rig will definitely get a 2" lift and 35s

Drove to the cabin for one night to get away from the city. The drive through the canyons along the Tieton River was amazing. Prefer this drive to Tri-cities over the west side.

Busy morning. I changed the front/rear diff fluid, transfer case fluid, and did a drain and fill on the transmission. I’m good for another two years.
I also removed the diff drop that the previous owner installed.

Age is a state of mind.
Same here. I have a 2014 CM with 170k and aside from the usual oil changes, tires and brakes it has only needed the water pump changed. I really wanted an excuse to be able to get a new one but the prices and the issues with the new powertrains have kept me away. Our Tundra is relegated almost exclusively to towing my buggy to events (1,000 mile round trip minimum) and I love everything about it. I would have no issues throwing the GX on the trailer and taking off today. I used to pull my very overweight LX450 on there and didn't notice it back there.2019 Tundra with 900k miles on original motor

Hell ya!
I just rolled over 70k on my 2017 so I have a long ways before doing anything major.
