The LX 470 offers a better interior and vastly superior off-road capability than the Mercedes M Class, better ride and handling than the Lincoln Navigator and simpler ergonomics than the Range Rover. Plus, Lexus dealers achieve consistently high scores in customer satisfaction.But the LX 470 isn't for everyone. For one thing, it won't fit everyone's budget. It starts at $61,405. It won't fit everyone's garage, it won't slide into the smallest parking spaces without risking door dings and it isn't the most nimble vehicle at the shopping center. For these reasons, Lexus sells fewer than 15,000 of them a year. But we always look forward to driving one, whether we're heading to the symphony or a distant trout stream.
