30K service
Just wanted to share what I did, so maybe some fellow owners can save some money.
Went to Toyota and got a BG brake fluid flush for $88. Oil change for $14.95
Tires did not need to be rotated. Measured 6 in the front, 5 in the rear..on the original Mich tires.
Brakes were fine, measured 8 in the front, 7 in the rear...original pads
Dealer completed free safety check, passed with flying colors.
Air filter was clean, original...did not replace.
Total cost $104.
Lexus quote for 30K service.....$450

Yep! I just had them do my 20K service. $294. Ouch. 
But then again, I just burned $400 in gas going up river to spend the weekend at my friends house. So gassing the boat up makes the Lexus costs seem minor.
This is way OT for this forum, but we did 136 miles and only burned 100 gallons. Not too shabby for twin Merc Racing 525's pushing a 5 ton go fast. Makes my Lexus seem like a real sipper!
