Hi Robert,
No problem with you choosing what you have, many people do choose the higher end Landcruiser models and remove the third row of seats. I just could not justify the added cost for what I intended using the vehicle for.
I chose the GX for a number of reasons, one being that as we do a lot of remote traveling, up market leather seats would be a bit of a waste, even with
seat covers on, dust and dirt would damage the leather. I did not want the third row of seats as they would hardly ever get used. There is generally only two of us, plus the dog, so no need for the extra seats.
I am “vertically challenged” so reaching into the rear over the tailgate was an issue, so the “
barn doors” were a better option for me.
Also, I think the “cool box” is a bit “gimmicky” and find the centre console storage more valuable and would get more regular usage than the cool box.
As I said, you chose what you chose for the reasons you stated, and I chose what I chose for the reasons I stated, nothing “wrong” with either choice.
Macca.
