Wish I joined this club sooner however better late than never. I already received some great advice via posts and PM's so thank you again everyone.

I've had the pleasure of owning a 2001 LS430 (ML) for the past 6 years. Bought it CPO with about 28k miles and now the old timer has about 135k. Let's just say travel was work was brutal the past few years so lots of time in the cabin along the way.

Cheers,
James

Welcome. Livingston County here. I also enjoy the nice cabin of the LS on my 85 mile round trip commute.

Welcome aboard. My parents live in Ann Arbor, I go to school at Michigan State (in Lansing) so I spend a good amount of time at both places. There are few cars that stack up to the LS when going from one place to another. I do notice a large number of MI owners here. Anyone up for a MI Lexus LS meet?

Welcome aboard James

Nothing better to drown out the noise/frustration from idiotic drivers and turning up the music to make the commute peaceful in the LS
