The 4 Runner depreciates less than the Lexus GX so you can get a better deal on a used GX (4 Runner being 4wd). The GX low gas mileage and premium fuel requirement is disappointing. I've done my research this month when I thought I had to buy an used car.

Same goes for the LX and the Land Cruiser. The LX depreciates way faster than the Land Cruiser, not sure why.

IS and specially GS at critical levels. I wonder if Toyota is investing at all in their replacements given the love sedans get these days.

Wow Lexus sedans are throwing in the towel, the RX has become dangerously crucial to the brand’s market share/revenue
