Yeah I got super lucky finding a Nori GX! After seeing there was only 3 Nori GX's available in the entire country (all on the East Coast), I wasn't even planning on this color and was set to purchase an all black GX. Last minute I randomly decided to look again at Nori's and noticed that this one literally just popped up in SoCal, so i jumped on it immediately.

My wife got a 23 RX when they came out and got grey or whatever they call it. I give her crap all of the time for not getting Nori. Good luck with it!
 
After a month of searching for the right GX, I managed to find a 2022 Blackline in Nori Green with 32k miles that was semi-local to me. I made the decision to trade in my 2018 Raptor for something much more reliable that I plan to keep long-term. I plan to build the GX slowly over time and mod things as needed.

You are living the dream. I settled for Nightfall Mica since I couldn't find anything in Nori!
 
The unicorn of GX's!
 
My 460 has a new fan clutch, new shroud and new serpentine belt. They even cleaned it, too!

I think most, or all dealerships wash your car for you for any service you have done. If I remember right, I think my dealership even said I can just bring it by for only a wash. But the place is to far, they don't do interior and takes too long.
Boy am I whining this afternoon!!😢

My interior is too gross to expect cleaning. 😂

Not sure what happened to the “offroad pic thread” but figure this one works too.

Ticked the San Juan Mountains off the bucket list last week. Dispersed camped one night and motel in Ouray two nights.

Colorado is absolutely magnificent; the history of the mining towns, beauty of the alpine lakes, variety of terrain and overall change of pace compared to more Westerly states.

The little GX460-that-could continued to hold
up well with 2” lift and 31”s.

She completed the following without a hitch (except one extremely two wheel tippy-one foot from the edge of a sheer drop off spot on Mineral Creek, which is Red rated);

- Last Dollar Rd
- Red Mtn Mining Trail
- Porphry Gulch
- Ophir Pass
- Alpine Loop of Engineer + Cinnamon Pass
- Mineral Creek

Black Bear was closed, and I’m probably lucky for it!

Being SoCal based, wheeling at 12k+ elevation was a new experience. Power/torque drain is a thing. Cannot wait to go back.

Looks awesome and sounds like a great trip. I did engineer, cinnamon pass and mineral creek last year and loved it. Mineral creek was a little sketchy but really didn’t have any issues. Black bear was closed for me too so can’t wait to go back. I absolutely love that area.
 
“Colt builds it” has been doing some YouTube videos near there. Looks amazing. Definitely a new vacation destination! Thanks for sharing..
 
I gotta get my engine bay looking that clean. Mine is a disaster right now 😂
It was completely covered in mud 2.5 weeks ago when this happened. I wash the engine after every wheeling trip. Its the one part of my car I keep immaculate.

Did Wheeler Lake today. It was incredibly challenging and unforgiving. Most serious wheeling i have ever done or seen.

Two Jeeps flopped, and I pretty well ****ed all my plastics.

I did not need to winch! Only one other rig didnt have to winch and he was twin locked with way more clearance and bigger tires.

Only two of us didnt have lockers.

My front bumper and skid have a case of In-Over-Your-Head-Itis, or just trail rash.
