Default My first Post!

Hi folks!

Just wanted to introduce myself. I'm Jay living and working in Orlando. I'm from Boston originally so don't ask me about the patriots.

I need a new car for work and I pretty much have my heart set on a GS350. Hopefully by hanging around here I can learn a lot before I make my final decision.

Anyway, that's all I have for now.

-Jay


wait...quick question. Can you tell me how much you guys typically pay for a full tank of gas in this car?

I am from the Boston area, and at 3.79 a Gallon for premium fuel, I have paid at most 50-60 bucks to fill. Of course, that is from about 1 bar left to empty. I usually try to fill up halfway mark anyways, but the lowest I got to was about 1 bar to empty (Gas light did not come on yet), so I cant confirm from "Almost empty"

3.01 a gallon so I normally fill at quarter tank and it ends up being 30-40 bucks.

Ive had Mercedes, Nissan, Honda, infinity and Lexus. The GS and the IS are my favs so far.
