congrats! yours is pretty low mileage and just breaking in. My buddy put those same model tires on his F150 a few months ago and loves them

Congrats
I must say that buying a used Luxury vehicle is one of the smartest things you can do with your money.
Especially proven machines like Lexus/Toyota.
After spending some time in a immaculately kept high mileage Lexus GS, I will never buy a car new again seeing as how long these vehicles can last when properly maintained. The previous owners take the hits with depreciation and you get to enjoy a well seasoned older luxury car minimal pretentiousness.
