What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2006 Lexus GX

2006 Lexus GX Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2005	4dr SUV 270-horsepower 4.7L V8 5-speed automatic AWD w/low range	It is great for young children, but not very comfortable for adults. It would LEGALLY allow you to drive many people around, but certainly not comfortably in the third row. Third row does NOT allow room even for kids in car seats to have any leg room. see full Lexus GX review
