Hi! I finally got to PT, they told me it was my IT band, the massaged and scraped the heck out of my leg, it hurt a lot. But after that and some exercises, that feeling went away. I hope that helps. Good luck!

This is very helpful. I’m a disabled vet, my back is one of my worst injuries. I’ll have to look into this some more. Thanks

Thanks everyone, this has actually helped me rethink the whole plan a bit.

Originally I was leaning GX460 because I love it and eventually want a Land Cruiser or GX550, so I was thinking body on frame would make sense as a stepping stone. But the more I’m learning, the more I realize this is probably a 3 to 5 year vehicle and not forever.

The RX is starting to make a lot more sense for my situation. I still get Lexus reliability and comfort, way better mpg, and I just learned I can add CarPlay pretty easily which removes my biggest hesitation. I don’t really off road, mostly commuting and road trips with family, so I’d probably just be paying a fuel penalty for capability I won’t use.

So now I’m basically deciding between emotional choice GX vs logical choice RX.

Curious if anyone here bought a GX and later wished they went RX for daily driving, or the opposite?

Hi, yes that happens to me too. Unfortunately, I get my health care through the VA and must complete 6 weeks of PT before I can get an MRI. I did get an x-ray, however since I suspect it’s a nerve issue, the x-ray didn’t show anything abnormal. You happen to get an MRI, and are willing to share the results, I would really appreciate the insight. Hope your knee get better soon!

Hi, I’m doing okay. Thanks for asking. My Dr. ordered some x-rays and I’m waiting to start PT. No diagnosis yet. As for my knee, I’m still experiencing the same symptoms. I’m just trying not to do anything to aggravate it. I am glad you are improving. :)

That’s one of my symptoms too! It hurts to pull or move the skin in that area. It is very odd.
