Tehy do this for everyone, even the 4-Runner did better because its like 400-600 pounds lighter(from V6 and decontented) and has a softer rear suspension thats not as twitchy

Supposedly, this is a "standard" CR measure for SUV's, so it's assumed that at all SUVs go through this test. I don't know whether non-SUVs go through this test.

You would have thought they would have redesigned the suspension to fix the problem and give it a cure instead of change the stability control computer, give it a pill to treat the symptoms! This si why I won't buy a Lexus and why I am Done with this company.

Good job Toyota. I don't think even the pre-updated GX had any real issue but still nice to see Toyota improved the stability system even more. New GX is a great SUV and doesn't deserve any stupid 'don't buy' labels.
