There are plenty of RX around and new ones become available for purchase all the time. If you do not see something which tells you to buy, walk away and wait for another to come around. You may have to wait a bit if you are too choosy, however, if you are willing to compromise there will be plenty to choose from.

I definitely don't think I'm being too choosy. I'm just a mom who wants to make sure I'm buying something safe for my son and also something that I'm going to be happy with for many years.

I like the sounds of the one you mentioned that just came available. Anything under 100k miles won't last long, so if you think you'd like it, I'd suggest trying it out quick. Well, I say that, but I suppose it can vary per market. I know I was going to try out a 2008 at the local Lexus dealership, and the salesman didn't even know it had already sold, b/c it hadn't been on the lot a couple of days as it was. When we got our 2007 RX, we had just tried out a few other vehicles at the same dealership, and this one had just been traded in. We tried it out the next day, and bought late that evening.

I sure hope I don't have to worry about the NAV going bad. When I bought ours, I didn't think about it being tied into so much, nor did I have a clue on replacement/repair costs, which should guess high. However, so long as it keeps going, I'm not worried about it. I know it's really nice to have for accessing all the different details about the car.

Thanks for the advice Kjv, I don't know much about the nav system and all it controls. What does it do other than nav and the back up camera?

Best car I've ever owned and the factory battery didn't die until just months ago (Duracell). LOVE my car and never had such a trouble free car. And I mean zip!

I know this is a LITTLE late... Sorry - haven't checked back here in apparently a long long time..

The NAV setup is nice in that it integrates with all your controls. Of course, the CON there is that if it goes, then your control for almost everything goes as well... well, the radio/dvd player would still work, but the climate controls - heat and a/c won't work independently... well, best I can tell anyway. And from what others have mentioned in other threads, that part can get quite expensive to replace/repair.

I wish the lady (jsellers81) had posted back as to what vehicle she bought. I hate it when someone asks for advice and never posts back with the outcome.
