Timeless well built Lexus
Solid, comfortable vehicle that is well made and safe. It is powerful enough to make you feel capable handling it in traffic. Extremely low maintenance and very reliable. It also can be conveniently taken to Lexus or Toyota for routine service. Its' appearance inside and out has aged very well.

A luxury truck built like a luxury car.
This Lexus is a super vehicle. I have had no problems with it. At 150k miles it runs like new. For an SUV it rides like a luxury car. Very smooth and quiet. Great power. The third row of sears is great when we go out with other folk in the evening. Seats a total of 7 people. A bit heavy on gas but it is a v8. The style would not give the impression of a 10 year old car. The back seats fold down so great for those trips to the hardware store when you have to buy materials that will not fit in a car. Also should you buy a large TV no problem.

It is a very durable, long lasting car.
I love boxy vehicles and this was always my dream car. I love how spacious it is. I also like the air suspension and smooth driving.

The oomfort this vehicle will go almost anywhere ! I have 193000 miles on mine and I feel I could go anywhere at anytime !
Make sure you have the timing belt and all the maintained oil changes recommend by OEM. This vehicle is a tank but a Most comfortable tank you will ever ride or sit in!
