question regarding 5th gen head units
I'm considering buying a 5th gen. I'd like to buy new, but am not thrilled at how the head unit appears in Toyota's marketing. As an '06 LX470 owner, it reminds me of the LX's head unit, which has too many car functions other than audio and GPS integrated in to it, so when the unit fails it's generally a big headache and expense, and aftermarket is severely limited.
Are there issues like that with 5th gen head units? Or has their large volume and 15-year run created a large enough aftermarket marketplace so that replacing a failed unit is generally not a big issue. I tend to keep my vehicles forever so just trying to get an idea of what to expect years down the road.
