I had to look, I put 43k on my GX in the same time. Up to 153k and adding 600-700 commute miles a week

First ~7 years after college I averaged 30k/year
I've been working from home for 5 years now... day care is around the corner... between those factors and driving press cars most weeks the GX does a lot of sitting which thankfully keeps the miles I put on it low

I was similar when I drove a service van. I maybe drove my own car a few thousand miles a year.
Once I get a daily its will probably drop to 10k or so.
You should have no problem unloading those on eBay. I sold a front pair a couple of years ago and they were gone quickly.
OBDLINK MX+ : how do I get the altitude, latitude and longitude to pull the info? I had an altitude display, but it just read 0ft. Do I have to enable something for it to work?

Scored a 528 on an RTI ramp.
Don’t know what that means, but keep it up! Lol

Its reasonable.
The guy who runs Toytec was impressed.
The solid axle rigs did better, but for oem controls arms that's pretty damn good.

Whats with 470 owners being oblivious to 460s?
Not as cool I guess

Once and done. I use a cheap Black Friday unlocked phone without a SIM card and it works. Good job troubleshooting it!
Not that there are huge elevation changes around here but enough to be interesting at times.
OBDLink reads the GPS telemetry off your phone, so be sure you have all those sensors on your phone "on".
IIRC someone on here, probably Western US based, has a lifted white GX with black wheels and a flat aftermarket roof rack and tows a camper. I swear I saw pics on the pic thread but I can't find them again. I passed such a rig which was going NB on I-25 between Las Vegas and Santa Fe, NM two days ago. Cool setup.
I'm on day 7 of a trip today, and I've seen exactly two modded GXs in 2600 miles. The other was black and lifted but no other obvious mods and I don't even recall where I saw it. Seen tons of modded JLs, 4Rs, Broncos. I've seen more FJs than GXs even, and the newest one of those is a decade old now!
Keep an eye out for me and wave f you are the rare GX owner in the west. We camped near Heber AZ last night in the Sitgreaves NF and are doing some national monuments and state parks near Sedona and Flagstaff today before heading to the CA line tonight.

Nice, I passed a built 460 2 weeks ago. Only the 2nd time I have got a wave from a GX owner.
They are very rare here in the Midwest. A couple weeks ago I got another "Is that a 4Runner?" question 
. No one around here really even knows what they are, especially when they are modded/lifted.
On our 5K mile trip to WY/MT last year I saw exactly 1 modded GX (and did chat with the driver, who was from all they way out in NJ) and a number of stock GXs (including one 460 that had towed a camper all the way up from TX). On our trip to CO in 2024 I don't recall seeing a single GX on any of the trails.

Its even like that in Colorado...They are very rare here in the Midwest. A couple weeks ago I got another "Is that a 4Runner?" question
Sounds like an awesome trip! Enjoy!
I was in the DFW metroplex for a couple days last week and saw several dozen GXs and probably half a dozen lifted ones (460 and 470). I'm a Texas Ex myself, and one of the reasons I moved back home to Missouri is that Texas has a severe shortage of public lands and places to wheel/hike/cycle/etc. (whereas MO has both in spades). So it was a bit surprising to see so many nicely-built GXs running around so far from good trails. But, I suppose Toyota-USA is headquartered there, and Texans have great taste in rigs!
