Default Thinking about trading for an RX

Hi there I have a 07 250. I put lots of money in it up grade the headlights to 2011 LEDs. Side mirror blinkers, front lip, new fogs, intake. Have another baby on way so thinking about RX 330 or RX350. Question is are there any recalls or tsb's out for these models I have the rattle on start up fixed and there's the carbon build up for my 250, which I haven't had yet. Just did water pump under CPO which expires in October. What are the pros and cons of an RX?

I actually upgrade my 06 IS250 to 08 RX350 then now to 14 Sienna SE. RX is good for space, No problem at all with the RX with 85k miles, lots of people seems to have the rack and pinion leak problem. Me and my wife prefer the ride quality on the IS and feels IS is quiter than the RX as well. RX is easier to load and unload baby though. We went from RX to Sienna because we are expecting another baby in a few months and extra passenger with us sometimes. Otherwise will not go for a van, The sienna is nice but quality is not equal at all in the interior. Wish Toyota import luxury van like Toyota Alpha. If I were to upgrade again from an IS to an SUV, I will go for a GX470, ride much nicer and quite! My wife would not let me go for a GX since I have a LX450 toy already. Go test drive a RX and a GX and I bet you will love the GX!

Yea when I get loaners always get an RX. I love the car I just hate to give up the sportiness of the IS. The growl from the exhaust. I love the way it drives. The wife loves the RX whenever we get it. Daughter to.
