I read somewhere that the 5 speed auto isn't a great box, might reduce the enjoyment a bit.
Yes, if it's the same box as used in Lexus 470 and Landcruiser, many journos bagged the 'box in tests. I'd assume it is as the 4.7l engine is essentially the same (detuned for 4WD use although torque was relatively high if outputs weren't great for a 4.7l).
