Default I am back!

Do not know if anyone remembers me but I last visited here when the LX570 just came out and I was one of the first in Florida to take delivery. After trading, I have owned several of the "other" brand SUV units but I long to get back into the LX570. None felt as good!

I am buying my 2nd LX570 next week when I take delivery of my 2010 on Wednesday.

I am glad to be back home.

Black with cashmere interior. Seems all the dealer had coming in is "fully" loaded so I am in for a treat. What do the F-wheels look like? I am anxious to see them.

One day I would love to visit AK!

Congratulations, and welcome back! I used to dream of getting one of these back when you got your first one.

Depending on where you are, "fully loaded" may include absolutely everything, or everything except PCS and Radar Cruise Control. Up here in MA, fully loaded is the latter, at least until recently. I wonder what you will get, though I'm pretty sure production for MA and FL are all the same (East Coast region). Curious to hear how it turns out!

I believe you are right and the above in not included. It is "everyting except". The "everything" vehicle is not due in until mid September and that would not fit my schedule.
