wow, great to hear. I was hesitant to move on the luxury package, because of my previous experience with the struts on my GX. That’s in the acceptable range.

I have a 2014 F Sport AWD with now 94k on it. I bought it in November with 83k. Miles don't scare me in the least on this car. The only issue I've had is the damn potholes in New England this year are the worst I've ever seen. Blew a bubble in the sidewall and I'm pretty sure I'll need to get at least 1 rim fixed and made to be right. Other than that it's been a pleasure. I plan on driving this car to 200k easy which I should hit in about 3 years. If you find the right car, even with miles, and it fits your budget then go for it. Good luck in your search!
LMAO I am part of this club too- exactly the same thing happened to me... I am glad it wasn't worse.... took about 3 big hits this winter.... at least it didn't affect the alignment at all, car still drives like a dream...

I missed your comment it was a 2014 Fsports Rwd, besides the leaking struts cosmetics was in real gud shape. I have kept a RX350 and IS250 well passed 100K but those were older generations with not much electronics involved.
