Well, a bicycle and mass transit infrastructure is the ULTIMATE answer. But short of that an EV is the ultimate answer for now.

I’m curious to hear your idiotic trumper explanation why it isn’t.


You realize of course that we, as a society, literally cannot generate enough electricity anytime in the near future to power a large scale transition to EVs. A UT Austin study, for example, estimated Massachussetts would need to generate 55% more electricity than it currently does. THere is just not capacity in the infrastructure for this and states will need to dramatically expand power generation over the next 30 years even to allow EV expansion to continue at the current rate.


No, I don’t “realize that” - because it sounds like total bullsh!t. And I’d hardly trust a study out of any university in Texas to be objective about this matter. Texas produces more oil than any other state. You think they might be a little biased against renewable energy? Uh, YEAH.


You’re just not bright enough to spar with me, trumpie. Why don’t you argue with something that has an intellect on-par with your own. Do you have any fence posts nearby?

Trying to decide but the 2023 Lexus GX460
Or wait for the new model 2024? Thoughts?

We are awaiting delivery of 23 gx, black line Ed. Proven, reliable, safe vehicle. This will be our second gx. We don’t care about the lousy gas mileage.

Agree 100%

The new GX will most likely come with a v6 twin turbo - no more V8. V6 tt will increase power, a few more mpg, BUT not anywhere reliable as the current 4.6l v8. The gx is a true off road warrior with the requisite Lexus 4wd suspension - unlike the many cross overs you see. As for looks fir the new gx, I can bet it will be uglier vs present.

The new LX is a monstrosity. Get your GX before Toyota/Lexus ruins it in more ways than one.

What a load of shit.

EVs haven’t gotten close to scale to be a good financial move.

Wow. I didn’t know people like you actually existed.

Get the current model. Tried and true engine and transmission - sameones used in the Toyota Land Cruiser before it was phased out a year or so ago. Thatengine is a beast and good for 250k +

+1


+2. NP.

There’s also the issue of batteries: where to procure minerals for them, how to dispose of them etc. in addition to the issue of electricity generation required to meet all demand.

EVs aren’t without problems.

How can you not like the lx? Other than it being 100k, it is a Land Cruiser on steroids.

The Land Cruiser was a handsome and timeless design. The new LX looks like it was designed by a toddler on a sugar high
