Well, I finally got sick and tired of driving a so-called "Man's" truck posing as a luxury SUV, and traded the sucker in on a 2004 MDX. Couldn't be happier! I had to dress it up some, adding body side molding, fender flares, side steps, rear spoiler, wood grained dash and shift knob, and it almost looks as good as the GX. The kicker, at least for me, is that it rides like a luxury SUV should. Smooth and controlled over bumps, rises, and dips, and stable in the wind. 265 horsepower, 20 miles per gallon. We even got the MDX with the audio upgrade and DVD player, and it actually has an in-dash cd player with the upgrade, not just a changer. The rain sensing wipers work when it rains, and stop when it isn't raining. Michelin tires instead of Bridgestones. And, it has a functional third row seat, which recesses in the floor of the rear compartment. It is roomy enough for two adults, and doesn't block your view when it is down. Put 2000 frustrating miles on the GX, and only lost $1000 in the trade. I will say this, I really wanted the GX to work. It is a really classy looking vehicle, with some nice features, but the bob and weave ride and unstable driving conditions in the wind, along with a few manufacturing defects, just couldn't be overlooked. I know some of you may be offended by my comments, but these are my honest opinions. I plan on monitoring the GX over the next few years, to see if these problems were corrected.
Good luck to all,
Robert A.
