The interesting thing is there was a time when many drove vehicles with such leaks etc., there was no assumption that if I parked on your EP Henry it would be clean when I left. People told me not to park my LeMans Sport in their driveway, I remember, and that was just based on appearance. Not everyone had a new car in the 90's. To make it 1 mil is a feat. My poncho was in that condition after only 100-200k

That shows what I have been saying for some time now.....how much more solidly that Lexus products, in general, were built 20 years ago than they are today.

Yes, Lexus products are not overbuilt like the good old days. Still a good vehicle, but standards seem to be less. My next vehicle, whatever that is, may not even be in the Toyota family.

I owned a Lexus product from that era. I know exactly how well it was built, though I'll admit that didn't keep it for a million miles.

17 grand? Something very off about that even if he bought retail OEM parts and had the work done at Lexus. Well then maybe.

And you have not owned a Lexus or Toyota model in the modern era if I am correct. So you wouldn’t know exaclty? The Tundra and Tacoma prove you wrong in that the newer models last just as long as the earlier models.
