i agree. it's seriously been one of the nicest all-around cars i have ever owned. i'm not into regretful decisions.

i already have another payment. i got the payment cause i wanted to go from 18-20MPG to 40+ MPG. well worth it, $15 fill up every 2.5 weeks instead of $55-60 every week
ahh, i see. makes sense. i have worked from home for like 11 years now. so i barely put any mileage on my cars.

Sorry guys. Hate to inform you, but i Sold my baby today. I just simply didn't have a need for 3 vehicles anymore, but she went to a good home.
Who know's, maybe she will pop back up in this forum again one day.
She was such a wonderful platform, i may even get another one in the future down the road.

Thanks for all the comments, tips and comradery at ClubLexus!

Godspeed,
Sevenevez
