Default Male vs Female

I was wondering what percentage of the RXs on this board are male/female driven.

I drive an 08 RX350, and I am male. I do see that many RX350 drivers are women but when i look at most other SUVs it's also women-- X3,X5,MDX,RDX...


Guess what i mean is that there is nothing about the RX350 that is "feminine" in looks/style, it is just who you see driving them. In my mind, they are two different things.

How could wanting the RX be a bad thing if you are a guy? Lets look at the facts..../ who decorated your home? In most cases when you go to a wedding or dress up who puts out your clothes or tells you what to or not to wear?
So just because todays woman have made a statement saying they prefer to buy and drive a Lexus RX 350 can't be a bad thing. I want an RX because of the quality and durability of the vehicle along with it looks good enough but I can not say it is the best looking SUV on the street .

Now there you are going to get allot of different opinions. I am not really sure because my last vehicle purchased was a jeep 2001 and I knew I wanted a LEXUS not a BMW or a Mercedes, and I wasn't going to pay anymore than I did so they eliminated a few more.I am in a wheelchair and don't drive or get out that much for that matter so my opinion would be based more on pictures and the real vehicle,but in my case I wasn't looking for the best looking as much as the best over all built vehicle. I do not think the RX is ugly but it is old looking and needs some sleeker angles .

My wife is the primary driver of our 08 RX350. I prefer my GS430 for its performance but I do enjoy driving the RX every now and then for its ride.

Before we sold the RX, the wife was the primary driver. In my area, women are the vast majority of drivers in RX's, followed up by senior gentlemen.
