...i believe you can rent one at the dealership. ive never actually done it before, but i know that people use those loaners for more than service drop ins.

Enterprise rents them out. Go to a location within a Lexus dealer body shop. They have RX/ES/IS as rentals. They are quite pricy though as they are classified as exotics. My RX is currently in the Sewell Lexus body shop and the Enterprise on site had them for rent but were all out at the time. I ended up with a Nissan Armada instead...

Lexus rents their RXs with each oil change

$180 oil change = $30 (actual oil) + $150 rent fee

LOL! Too funny, but true! We really should be paid for test driving their new cars....

I had my free 5000 miles service done today at Lexus Of Riverside. If the service takes less than two hours. No car is offered. How long did it take for my oil change? 1 hour 50 minutes.

Oh yeah. On the oil. I ask for Mobil One. When I got the car back I had to go to the cashier and pay 38.00 dollars for the upgrade on oil.

But I did get a free botle of water.

I did the oil change and rotation at 3000 miles at the local Toyota dealer. 68.00 dollars with Mobil One.

you should call your local lexus dealership and ask them to rent you out one...

if you own a lexus and go there for service, it should be no problem

Sorry for that. My point was you dont get a free rental with an oil change.

You need to find another dealer. My dealer charges $37 for an oil change with a loaner.

I'm with Gibster. My dealer charges $41 for oil change and includes free loaner and a hand car wash. Seems like a good deal to me.
