Nice pick up. But no need to waste the money on the lowering control module. I lower those all day without it

Sorry about your loss, but glad to hear you're ok. Nice find on the MB, sorry it's not a 3rd Gen Lexus.

Great pick up, but I would've gotten at least the 08 model. The 06 model had a lot of issues/bugs, and they started fixing a lot of it by 07 when they changed to the 550 model. I know this because I almost purchased one when my car totaled. I was reading a lot about that model because I used to be in love with it lol. I then found my current car with low mileage for a good cash price and didn't look back.

What is the name of that grill you had. Your rims and all was a nice set up.

This looks like a case of txting while driving. How do you t-bone a pole in the daytime, unless your are super drunk or txting while driving. Hope she is ok, but this crazy.
