What have I done
 It's exactly how I would have ordered it and I should have it by the end of September. |

It looks good with the black grill. I really wish they wouldn't have gone so large on the grill though with the last major facelift, really took my interest out of buying one, even though they are great vehicles for the money.

Being able to actually get this one within a couple of months at MSRP put me over the edge. |

I got a 2018 GX certified pre owned in March. 22k miles on the clock and pristine condition. The mpg is what it is. The technology is about 10 years behind but it’s a nice ride that will last thru the apocalypse or so I’m told.

I had ordered a 4Runner but am going to cancel it as there's no ETA on it even being allocated. I did get it at MSRP and have it in writing. I won't pay over MSRP for a vehicle even in these times when I sold my 4Runner back in June and miss it. |

Good timing Toyota just slowed production and stopped taking preorders.
Great choice - GX is fantastic. |

I'm extremely exited as I've never had anything nicer than a SR5 4Runner.

We have zero coming into to either of our dealers but plenty of people want that color which won’t be offered outside of the Special edition. Funny thing is, is that fucking color on any other SUV is an absolute PITA to sell but on the GX it’s just stunning |

I know Lexus just did a build with C4Fab or CBI, I don’t recall. It is just a whole lot of money to upfit them along with the base price. What I’m hoping though is this is the direction the 2023 4Runner goes. The 4.6L V8 is power the 4Runner really needs to stay competitive. |

Headlamp washers, tow hitch, exhaust tip, and mats. I thought about the upgraded stereo but didn't want the power third row that I'll never use. I thought that color looked good on the RX but can see how it's polarizing. |
