Default Welcome to Lexusville

It's a place where there are two Lexus in every driveway, and one on the street. Car trouble is a term nary said, and the water tastes like wine.....

Saw an ES300 at the electricians across from us the other day, thought **** all of it, then the bloke that owns it rocked up in another ES300. Turns out he has 2 more at his house. Aren't they a Toyota Windom? :P

In a civilized world, one would treat the entire driveway as their own. But I have seen folks shovel or snow blow right down the middle, or just enough for the width of their own cars. Moral of the story, is to avoid. This arrangement was likely concocted circa 1950, when folks' f**ts really did smell like freshly baked cinnamon rolls!

in Lexusville, the gas stations only carry 93 octane, yet its priced like 87.
Power steering fluid and timing belts are a form of currency here. the autozone franchise consists of selling power steering parts, timing belts, starters and alternators. that's it because, well, that's all that ever breaks on them
the town auto repair place is a lonely very boring place to work. only repairs they do are to power steering pumps and timing belt changes, but its only one car a week or so.
the town has a special street task force for the Ls400s power steering runoff, its scraped off the road and converted to biofuel to power the city.
all homes come with a CFC free air conditioning system, and homes have motorized windows and skylights that can be opened with a click of there LS key fob, just like their cars, because everything is connected.
all houses are painted either painted diamond pearl white, black onyx, truffle mica, atomic silver, cypress pearl, or satin cashmere
the highway that runs through Lexusville is Hwy 460, which has a speed limit of 160 mph.
police drive IS-Fs and LF-As
the town Lexus dealership is the coolest place in town. its got a vibrant night life with Clubs, eateries, a movie theater and a racetrack.
rock concerts musicians use either Pioneer, Nakimichi, or Mark Levinson sound equipment
the 911 system here consists of LexusLink, Destination Assist, or Lexus Enform for Fire, EMS, or Police.
Fire trucks and Ambulances are modified LX570s, GX470s and RX350s
the main roads are Hwy 460, Fukishima Blvd, Eiji Toyoda Rd and Tahara St. neighborhoods are 200st, 250st, 300st, 330st, 350st, 400st, 430st, 450st, 460st, 470st, and 570st
everybody here is well-to-do, even the fast food workers, because their lexus don't ever break down so they save tons of money in repair bills! besides those pesky starters and timing belts.
