Some of the still pictures, and the stream clip right at the biggening are up in the Rockies just outside Georgetown, CO.
I'm sad to send it down the road, but I've got to many vehicles around and something has to go. :(
1:15 why I picked out this one
2:25 exterior walk around
3:10 looking inside
4:20 taking it for a drive
Great last date. As they say, goes something like this.....takes to lose something to appreciate something.... Don't cry.. 😢
:) I have fond memories of it, but I haven't actually missed having it around. It was replaced and just not needed anymore. I'd buy one again in a heartbeat if I needed another one.
@bennieaust you could have kept it around.....$15K doesn't make too much difference in the big picture. Now, someone else is driving your X ... After all, she was fateful to you...
@@Kdawg101 I don't have enough space for everything. Can't keep it all.
how many miles and what did you sell for?
179k miles. Sold for $11,000.
Good price that’s the price range I’m shopping for 😂 maybe 1k more now
How to spot the point of failure in manifold?
My right side manifold failed at the front edge of the front port. I don’t know if they all fail right there or not, but stick you head in there with it running and the noise will tell you. Also it will be black with carbon around the leak.
@@bennieaust I see look for carbon try to hear it but even if I can't pinpoint hear it I'll see carbon
@@LLCoolPass yes, also there is a heat shield you will probably have to remove to see the whole manifold. It's tight but you can get access through the wheel well. I did the repair on mine with only removing the wheel, wheel liner flaps and the heat shield.
@@bennieaust brilliant
@@bennieaust minimum welder machine /type needed?
If you want a really quiet SUV get a soft top Jeep with an aftermarket top. You're welcome.
Thanks for the tip! :)
And when the Jeep breaks down, it'll really be quiet 😂
@@Mark-jc1qj it was a joke man, jeeps get A LOT of wind noise especially soft top ones. On a side note though I always read how the GX is bulletproof and Lexus reliability but yet there are always people breaking down or breaking stuff on a regular basis.
They have Lexus in Minnesota???? I was in Twin Cities last month and could hardly see any Lexus or BMW or Mercedes on the road.... mainly the typical American cars on the road.... unlike here in CALIFORNIA, where you sed Lexus every where.....there are as many Lexus on the road as there are Starbucks and McDonald's.... in Los Angeles, there are more Lexus on the road than one can count....
Just mine :)
Your audio recording suffers from too much wind noise, as I am sure your aware, makes. This video not worth watching,
Thanks for your feedback.
