thanks mike it certainly would have taken me a minute to find that box first place I would have checked would be under driver's column or in the glove box. Unfortunately replacing the fuse did nothing to change it. It's not a major deal as I don't use it to smoke just inconvenient because I use a charger...

Every time I drive it I'm still flabbergasted at the miles and condition..I saw another gentleman bought an 02 with 40k miles in a unique gray looking color. I like lexus's white, the pearl. Im not normally a fan of black vehicles but I'm not picky. My last car was silver and I could never do silver again. simply unnoticeable.

I noticed a lot of posters on here are from so-cal, i used to live out there once upon a time. I figured out the cig lighter issue and got it fixed. There was a 2nd fuse box so now its completely back up to tip top shape.

11 thousand miles? 
i thought i had low milage!
i admit im all about the pearl, but i found my grey which is a rare SD with black interior and couldnt pass for the price
definitely wouldn't choose a white gs tho anyday

how many miles do you have? Im liking how there's ample lexus models with over 150k miles, I had a 96 es300 with 170k before parting, the current owner is still driving it around and I sold it 3 years ago. I noticed it indicates premium fuel, is this highly followed or a suggestion?

i have 69? i dont even drive it enough to remember how much miles i have on my car 
put a whooping 600 miles this whole year. its garaged and im just throwing mods at it every chance i get.
tbh i pump prenium cause i baby my car and thats what it suggests.
my neighbor who is a long time mechanic is pumping 87 and he said it runs fine, he went from 91 to subtly switching to 87. i wouldn't risk it tho my car is a lexus, not a honda, and it deserves 91!

haha good call, for the difference in price i hear you do get that back in miles for just a qtr extra a gallon well at least here in so-fla its about 420ish a gal for prem. I'm almost done with school i dont expect i'd be driving more unless i pick up a job that has me going the distance and if thats the case id rather just buy a commuter car than rack up miles.
