108k on my 2008 F... I commute with mine M-F 50 miles around trip. Get roughly 285-315 per tank and averaging 22mpg! Haven't had to do any major maintenance, just the typical oil, brakes, rotors, etc. love it!

it's seriously the perfect DD when you factor in cost to purchase, cost of ownership, class, power, and fun factor.

i switch out cars typically every 6 months - 1 year, drives my wife nuts lol, but this one is a keeper. if anything ill be adding another F to the garage as my wife keeps swiping the keys of mine!

Especially in Houston, TX where there is always major road work going on, and massive trucks ready to throw all debris on you! lol

I'm still waiting for someone to put AWD into one. Maybe I'll do one in the future.

I dont DD because sometimes I may have to go out in the field at work but I have 97K on my 08 and still drives as when I first purchased her. I am proud of the F. I wish they would put the new RCF engine and trans in the GSF. I dont really care for turbos they are speaking on because I know is a new venture for lexus and just want pure reliability but could use a bigger car with my two boys and im pushing the space with their two baby seats.
