More GX Specs – 2010 Lexus GX 460!!!
The redesigned and re-engineered GX 460 builds upon and strengthens Lexus’ reputation of luxury, performance, innovation, and utility.
We are pleased to announce that the 2010 redesign elevates the GX’s styling and luxury, while also providing more flexibility, safety, and technology for the Luxury Utility Vehicle driver. With its elegant seven-passenger interior, distinctive exterior, strong list of features, and competitive pricing, we are confident the new GX will succeed in keeping Lexus at the forefront of luxury SUV consideration.
The 2010 GX 460 comes with a new 4.6L engine and more power (301 hp; 329 lb-ft torque). The new six-speed automatic transmission also helps provide 13% better MPG than the previous GX, making it the best-in-class V8 fuel economy and competitive with some six-cylinder models. In addition to this progressive engine, the GX also brings with it some exciting new features all of which are standard for the base model:
- Power fold-flat third row seat
- 10 airbags (best-in-class)
- Heated/Ventilated front seats (first in class)
- Rear back-up camera with standard 4.2” screen (does not require Navigation)
- Smart Access
- Safety Connect™ (Complimentary one-year trial subscription. See appendix for details.)
The GX is the “right-sized” and most compact (in length) SUV in its segment. The exterior demonstrates some new key convenience and styling features such as the flip-open rear glass hatch (for easier access to the cargo area), integrated rear door handle, and new standard rear spoiler with hidden wiper. The GX color palette is also completely revamped and includes two all-new exterior colors, Knight’s Armor and Claret Mica, and three interior colors, Ecru, black, and Sepia.
The 2010 GX interior not only has the new standard power fold-flat third row, but access to the third row has been made easier via the tilting and sliding 40/20/40 split second row seat. A new center console design offers the driver more storage and functionality including easy to reach iPod and 12-volt outlets.
While the GX base model comes full of standard luxury amenities, Lexus has also developed a “Premium” model which adds semi-aniline leather, heated wood steering wheel, heated second row outboard seats, power electrochromatic exterior side mirrors with power retract, headlamp cleaners, rear A/C, illuminated front scuff plates, rear air suspension, auto leveler, adaptive variable suspension, and color keyed body side molding.

Travel Review – Branson, MO
I had the pleasure of visiting Branson, Mo for the first time in twelve years at the beginning of November. To say I was blown away would be an understatement! Branson has grown up in a good way and has something for everyone.
We stayed at the Holiday Hills Resort, where we got a one week stay in a two bedroom condo for only $380! With five of my children, we filled the space nicely and had plenty of room for our things. The resort is located 3 miles east of the amazing Branson Landing (more later on that!) and is set around an 18-hole golf course.
We did the Titanic Museum Tour. The coolest thing about the tour is you are assigned a passenger when you start your tour. You learn all about the person and then when the tour is over, you learn whether or not you survived the tragedy or not. My wife and daughter survived.
We also were there for the Annual Christmas Parade and saw several stars of the Branson Strip. Andy Williams and the Osmond Brothers were the highlight of the slowest moving parade I have ever seen.
We raced go karts on one of several tracks in Branson. My 4-year-old Williams giggled the whole time and was pleased to have “won”. We then went into the arcade and beat the stuffing out of a few moles and alligators.
We ate at several restaurants and were pleased to find out that the next big thing in Branson is a Restaurant row with famous national chains like PF Chang and Cheesecake Factory coming soon. Of course, you can find just about every imaginable buffet in Branson if that is your favorite kind of meal.
We spent our first evening at the Branson Landing. It is an outdoor mall with a Belk’s Department Store on one end and a Bass Pro Shop on the other. The water show was a scaled down Bellagio show with the addition of fire and explosions thrown in. We ate at the San Francisco Oven, which was like a McAlister’s, except with good food and a quiet atmosphere.
We only went to two of the four outlet malls (I had three teenage daughters with us) and one was packed, the other not. It was sad to see the red roof outlet mall so rundown. That was the biggest and best twelve years ago.
All in all, we had a great time and would go again. Check around and shop for deals and you can spend an affordable weekend that is a short drive from Wichita.

Movie Review – 2012 (PG-13)
If a film critic awards four stars to a movie directed by Roland Emmerich — Hollywood’s reigning king of catastrophe, the critically scorned director of “Independence Day” and “Godzilla” — will the world come to an end? That’s a question the ancient Mayans never asked, but it’s the one facing me after the enormously satisfying, astonishingly accomplished, reprehensible-yet-irresistible “2012,” the crowning achievement in Emmerich’s long, profitable career as a destroyer of worlds.
Starting with the long-held misapprehension that the Mayan calendar picks 2012 as the date of humanity’s doom, Emmerich fleshes out that bit of pseudo-history with some pseudo-science — some nonsense about solar flares, and neutrinos heating the Earth’s core — and throws hundreds of millions of dollars and an expertly chosen cast at it. The result is a movie that takes the manifold guilty pleasures of such past Emmerich extravaganzas as “Independence Day” and “The Day After Tomorrow” — not to mention the Emmerich-inspired “Armageddon” and “Deep Impact” — and amplifies and expands them until they fill up 2 1/2 overstuffed hours.
