Hi all I'm looking at an 07 gx470 with 125k on the clock. Good news is all service was done at the dealership but the amount of work done seems to be excessive. I've only copy/pasted the uncommon service (no oil changes, tire rotations). Does anything seem out of the ordinary? I'm somewhat concerned with the warped rotors and front brakes every 35k, cat 1 bank being replaced, and the stealership doing two timing belt changes within 25k of each other.
I'm also looking at an 05 with 12k less miles for the same price. Any preference in the 05 or 07? Both have the sport package. Thanks!

Perfectly normal - but also tells me this is an owner with very little knowledge about the vehicle, so they wouldn't be smart enough to request all of those other services without being persuaded to.
