Man.

1st things first - I HATE that I-drive system. I would NEVER be able to tolerate the sub standard graphics and cheap feel that it has.

2nd - what a boring driving experience, I started to get sleepy! for real! It even felt faster than my 250, but man I just couldn't take how little feedback from the road i got!

3rd - The radio controls on this (I guess it was a base model) were awful! In order to switch the sat radio up or down one I had to reach over REALLY far to change it!

Point of thread: Love me my IS! Even if it sucks more in the snow than an RX

I just turned in my 2010 IS250 AWD loaner, so happy to get my 350 back. Smiled all the way home. I miss the heated seats and the AWD in that snow we had this morning but thats about it.

I got to use a 2010 RX as a loaner over night. I actually didn't mind it at all. It was a comfortable ride and thought everything was laid out quite nicely. As well, it felt quite luxurious and I found the space to be very good. My son definitely enjoyed the extra leg room compared to my 350

It's a different type of car in which its usage and functionalities are TOTALLY different from IS. We have both the RX and the IS-F, as well as a GS350 in the family, and I don't feel "bored" whenever I'm in the RX.
I'm not trying to be an a$$, but you should appreciate the fact that Lexus are even offering loaner vehicles to its customers.

I believe the rx is faster than the 250. I use to have the rx350 and I loved that suv it is so comfy It's not a sports car so you shouldn't expect it to behave like one.

We test drove the RX, and it's a great ride. Different type of vehicle compared to a sportier sedan with the IS. Along with that, it's not really a sport utility vehicle, the RX, but rather a luxury utility vehicle. Very functional with all around usage. It's not like driving an IS, that's for sure, but it makes for a nice ride with the luxury feel inside.

eep! Such harsh words!

I agree that the RX's target demographic is completely different from the IS's target demographic. That being said, if you love your IS (and you did excitedly proclaim that you do ), then it makes sense that the RX would not satisfy your...errr...car needs

Really enjoyed my RX loaners. Any vehicle that isn't yours will take some time to get used to. This is true going into any car you don't drive every day.

i took the rx as a loaner myself. i liked how quiet and smooth the ride was. being elevated i had a better view. however i did miss being able to take hard and sharp turns.

i had the same problem with the HS i got as a loaner when i was getting a couple of recalls tkaen care of. although the little joystick/mouse thing was interesting.

I had this for four days.

That thing was a dog.

That's all I have to say.
