The wife's 2015 Audi Q7 seems to be disposable, currently leaking oil, trans fluid, and coolant, has some weird parasitic battery drain issue, creaks and squeaks and cost over $700 to get a new battery installed. I wish a tornado or fire would put it out of its misery.
Meanwhile, my 2002 almost 370k mile Landcruiser is our go to family vehicle bc of how s***ty the Audi is. (it was given to us, I didn't buy that thing).
We're looking at a new 2023 GX before Toyota does away with the tried and true 4.6 V8's in America.
Question is, can I expect the same level of reliability and maintainability from the GX that I've been experiencing in my 100 series for the last 12 years (I'm the second owner)? I can take care of just about any job in my garage, unlike the Audi where I can't even change the battery myself without reprogramming the computer at the dealership. I would be buying this GX for 10-15 years of ownership minimum.
