Haha the Ls430 is more comfortable than most lunchrooms.

Yeah the curtains would be quite nice.

dont need curtains. i have limo tint all the way around. during the day you cannot see inside of the car (in the back) at all
in the front, you might be able to see an outline of a person IF you look close enough

If you knew you were going to use it as a lunch room, you'd have stepped up to a UL.

cheapest UL I found was 12-14k more =/
but massaging seats would of hit the spot and grabbing a cold brewsky out of the fridge would of topped it off!!

When my wife has a doctor's appointment, we usually take along whichever of her caregivers is working that day. One of the ladies always comments on how comfortable the back seat is in the LS430. When she mentioned it again this morning, I said that if I knew we would be having regular backseat riders, I might have searched for the model with cooled, reclining, and massaging seats with a cool box.

I also warned her not to get too used to it. When the roads get iced up in the winter, we'll be riding in the Subaru with very little rear legroom and no heated rear seats.

nice! I did that once. I don't have limo tint, but it was a nice day out so I turned off the engine and just put up all the privacy shades (UL) with the windows down and had lunch in the backseat as I fooled with the radio controls, hahaha. It was a perfect day at the park.

Haha...you make it sound like you'll be steering a horse drawn carriage during the winter months on ice covered Michigan roads. Well I suppose if you compare the Subaru with your Ls430...they truly are that far apart...Maybe I've exaggerated..just a little bit

Cheers!

I'll be driving the family minivan (Honda Odyssey).
