If you are going to offroad it, there are a few differences:
1/ The GX comes with a nice suspension which makes replacing it a more complicated decision than on a 4R.
2/ There are limited skid plates and rock sliders options.
3/ The rear diff on a 5th gen 4R is stronger. Probably not so on a 4th.
The GX 470 is normally a bargain compared to a used 4R.
Maintenance wise, with the V8, you get to deal with the timing belt.
