It gives you 2-3 miles of EV. Its usage ,well its 2-3 miles . If you have a son or daughter and they are coming in late for a date then maybe a usage.

[QUOTE=midcow3;

So the purpose of this thread is not necessarily to address snide remarks which are rare and as you say administrator handled, but to facilitate the transfer of information quickly to those that are requesting it.
from the thread starter , also known as the OP.

Cool so you are a teacher proctor besides a clinical reference lab worker. I think you received some early "grounding" clarification on jump starting a car. And yes, folks, do not try to put a ground cable on an open ECU sensor port ; it is not a ground even though it is silver colored.

Peace to you brother, Mr. @Lexicon1 I am not sure why you don't like my knowledge. So ask me any question Mr. @Lexicon1 and I will give you an honest, technically objective snide free answer so I won't be one of your proctored students.

Peace and Goodwill,

YMMV,

I can really feel the peace and goodwill just as others have in your posts , I was much higher up in the clinical field, just as you mentioned you were a computer "worker"...but that does not matter. Since you brought up the topic of grounding and not me, my response in your thread on grounding was one in which I pointed out that you can NOT jump the hybrid on any bolt, your posts indicated that a ground is a ground.....and so you needed to copy and paste a treatise on :Grounding 101". If you care to contact me regarding your feelings , I have offered to correspond with you previously and privately, you have not taken me up on my offer and so it appears this is the venue , sorry you "feel" I dont like you . Sorry you appear to be so sensitive . Be diplomatic and non-condescending on your posts and you will not hear from me.
I assume you will take this too personally so you will have the moderators remove this post therefore they should also remove your post above.....Just sayin...
And, have a lovely day

Peace and Goodwill, by the way "worker" is not indicative of any level , just saying.

Default Signia & NX

What do you guys think – will the Crown Signia be a strong competitor for the Lexus NX when it’s released? I’ve got to say, the interior looks impressive, offering more cargo space and nearly the same fuel economy. What in the world is Toyota thinking with this move?

It will be a strong competitor. It also seems that Toyota seems to move faster and test more thoroughly new technology than Lexus. Lexus sometime has the battleship turning methodology.

You're right. Toyota often moves faster in adopting new technology, while Lexus takes a more cautious, thorough approach. This difference can make Toyota quicker to market with innovations, whereas Lexus ensures high standards and refinement.

Did you hear about the disposable car they are exploring for $8,000? I don’t know if I’d buy but I thought it was interesting.

... and the Lexus 12 volt battery issue was "a more cautious, thorough approach" ? Ha Ha

You got me on that one! My brain is still buffering 😂. Maybe Lexus just wanted to make sure we never forget the art of jump-starting a car.

Why is it in most if not all other markets you can buy a NX350h FSport but in the NA market it's not an optional trim level?

Default Service History

Where in the Lexus phone application I can find the service history for the vehicle. I thought it was under the maintenance schedule section before and now I couldn’t find it. Am I missing something? Or the latest update removed it? I know we could access the info on the website but I want to see the service history on the app. TIA.

I don't think it is on the phone app.


To view your service history, log in to lexus.com/My-Lexus or the Lexus app and go to the Service page. If you have more than one vehicle, go to the vehicle picker in the right corner to toggle between vehicles. Select the desired vehicle to view its service history.

It was on the bottom left “service” section from the Home Screen on Lexus phone app. 👌

Am trying again to have my wife's' profile load the same as mine. When she gets in into the car, the default maps are the Lexus/Google maps. We use Waze with Android Auto. In my profile, that is the default state. I can't for the life of me recall how to set hers for that state to launch automatically. We can do it by touching the AA icon at the top of the screen. But she needs it to be automatic as it is with mine.. Any directions would be appreciated. We have the 14" screen.
