Hello all, first time poster here who has been researching GX’s recently with the idea of trading my 4R Pro for one. My plans for it are a small lift, tires, sliders, bumper, etc. I know what all the different trims and options offer but am having trouble deciding which route to go on spec.
In a perfect world I would prefer to go all out with lux trim for the off road package for MTS/Crawl and the panoramic camera. (‘22-‘23 MY) However I have heard there are concerns and challenges with installing a lift in place of the factory air suspension. Mainly things like error codes but still I’d prefer to not have my dash looking like a Christmas Tree.
The sweet spot for value seems to be Premium Plus and would obviously be a straight forward install regarding the lift since it uses traditional coil springs and shocks but then giving up on the MTS/Crawl and camera upgrades. I can live with out the camera, not sure about the off road goodies tho. I’m pretty novice with wheeling and they have been nice to have in my experience on the trail in my 4R.
TLDR. If you were buying a new GX with plans to lift, do you go with Premium or Lux and why?
