I think taxi drivers get a special discount for driving a hybrid.

And all NYC yellow cabs require leather sitting, fake leather at least.

Notice the picture sucks, driving and taking a picture with a cell phone ain't that easy.
Weird feeling, right?

I saw the RX350 as the yellow taxi in April. https://www.clublexus.com/forums/rx-...axi-rx350.html

I saw another RX450 in July... Well, it seems RX price tag is quite affordable... And, yes, teh Hybrid model has the special discount in tax return.

I hardly see anyone mounting their EZPass next to the camera sensor and the rear view mirror, where the black window is. I use velcro to hold the pass, and I believe it's one of the best spots to hold/hide the pass.

RX's windshield isn't like the MB's. I never have the problem on RX so far.

99.9% of drivers in my area have the EZ pass installed right under or to the left of the rearview mirror.
There was another EZ Pass unit available that was attached to the front license plate top screws but I believe that option is not available anymore..
