Default Returning to the LX Club

Most here would not remember me but I was one of the first to get and post about the LX 570 when they first came out. After 3 LX units I strayed and tried so other vehicles including a Cayenne, Range Rover, etc. I am currently driving a 2014 Mercedes ML350 BlueTec.

Not happy with the ML so I will be purchasing a 2015 Black LX570 with dark grey leather. Hope to pick it up this week.

Is there still a Luxury SUV tax rebate for 2014 or has the government done away with that.

Anyway, glad to be coming back, hope I am still welcome after the long lapse of participation.

No tax break, but our current congress is talking about passing the tax breaks which expired 12/31/13 and making them retro for all of 2014. If they do, you may be able to get enough depreciation to cover the trade difference between your ML and your new LX.

Not counting on the tax break.

Will do. She is beautiful and was strange and yet familiar to drive home. Sitting much higher than the ML. The Lexus dealer did I a great job on the prep and even exchanged the Dunlops for the Michs.

Pictures by this weekend.
