No but seriously what better way to attract your attention than to post up what everyone wants to hear ?

Anyway just picked up this 2014 ES300h with a little over 135k on the clock located up in Seattle by the Sno-King border
Hybrid battery has been replaced by the dealer and everything looks pretty & works nicely for the Missus including her highly vaunted sniff test

 

A coupla questions for any PNW locals that care to opine

I need to get decent car mats before winter rolls in and my fave TuxMats aren't available anymore so what's the next best option ?
Should i go for WeatherTech this time or wing one of those eBay resellers called OMAC ?

Also whom do we trust to work on our cars up here in the Seattle suburbs ?
I've had the same guy take care of my other cars for 10+ years but he does not have any of the newer Toyota/Lexus electronic tools so I'd like to find someone I can trust

Thanks for looking

 

Welcome to the Club and Congrats on your new-to-you/wife ES and 1st post !!

Why not get the OEM All Weather Floor Mats specific to your new ride. WAY better than WeatherTech's "plasticky" ones, IMO.

They're on sale now at Bell Lexus -- with FREE Shipping and NO Sales Tax it’s a bonus for us with our local over 10% tax

Remember your "handle" -- she will be pleased

As for the mechanic, We have had great success at Lexus of Seattle, and they offer military discount.

We don't go to the other two that have same owners.

Otherwise, I've seen Great reviews for Greg's Japanese Auto (several locations) and my experience with one in Federal Way was wonderful.

Enjoy your new ride

 

Thanks for having me.

I was hoping to find mats that kinda keep any/all the dirt within the mat & don't let it creep anywhere else.
My other car, an Infiniti hybrid used to ferry my kids up Snoqualmie during ski season and the Tuxmats kept all the gunk they'd drag in from touching any part of the actual car.
This one has a far prettier interior so I'd like to keep it looking nice & tidy.

Greg's sounds like a nice idea. I might try them out if the need arises

 

I’m sorry I misspoke — I was at work and in a hurry.

I meant to send you OEM All Weather Floor Liners they’re the ones I have for my Lexus SUV that go up the sides with more coverage, as with our PNW weather, you want those.

You have 3 choices during this sale. I usually go with Bell Lexus because it’s closer, but if I can save a little more I go with Treasure Coast Lexus.

This huge sale ends tomorrow, Sep 23rd. and they’ll have another one in Fall at end of Oct, but I doubt it’ll be as good as this one (20%), then you’d have to wait until their Christmas sale.

PT9083319002 - Lexus All-Weather Floor Liners, Black | Bell Lexus North Scottsdale, Scottsdale AZ / $125.00

PT9083319002 - Lexus All-Weather Floor Liners, Black | Prestige Lexus, Ramsey NJ / $122.00

PT9083319002 - Lexus All-Weather Floor Liners, Black | Treasure Coast Lexus, Ft. Pierce FL / $120.00

Just so you know the hubster had WeatherTech liners in his Tundra that surrounded the passenger footwell and over time they started sliding all around and feeling like plastic. I hated them and finally got him OEM ones. You can tell a definite difference in the rubbery, solid feel of the OEM ones.

If you have specific questions on your ES, be sure and go to the ES Forum

ES - 6th Gen (2013-2018) - ClubLexus - Lexus Forum Discussion

 

No biggie, chief

Those links are somewhat misleading because thy're designed for the current gen ES

My Gen 6 is going o be somewhat tough to fit so I'm leaning for the rubberized Google product {TuxMats are too busy/popular}

 

My gosh -- So sorry for the mistake !!

I have found these ES300h OEM All Weather Liners -- they say 2016-2018, but that's STILL part of your 6 Gen so I believe they would fit.

https://parts.treasurecoastlexus.com...083317020.html

They're still a decent price, but if you can wait there should be another sale towards end of Oct around Halloween.

Here's to hoping this FINALLY helps you!! I love my All Weather Floor Liners -- especially when the pine needles hit -- Ugghh


EDIT: When comparing the 2 OEM All Weather Floor Liners between 6th and 7th Gen you can tell the difference.

Even though it says 2016-2108 on website, I think they're for ALL 6th Gen and should FIT your 2014 ES300h.

You can always call them to make sure -- they're very helpful and I usually call if I'm unsure.

 

Yep first chance I get
The car threw a code yesterday so the dealer's hybrid battery guy fixed it.
Hoping no more gremlins although the urban ride quality is literally surreal driving home in full rush hour traffic.
Compared to my other hybrid this chassis floats like a dream

 

Cool -- you won't regret it!!

Wonderful -- we ALL love the smooth ride...

Remember you always have the 6th Gen Model Forum to fall back on if you have any issues/concerns

Just wondering -- Is this your first Lexus?

 

Yeah as long as we don't count the parent company. Still have an 04 Camry with sub-300k on the clock.
TBH I was more of a sportsbike guy until I had kids. Then I got an 04 G35 for Daddy duty, lost it to a n00b that rear-ended me at a stoplight.
Found another Datsun to replace it except it was helluva faster because it was a sport hybrid.

I used to always equate the ES with my Camry because they shared so much under the hood.
But this ES hybrid is nothing like the Camry hybrid I tested before making a decision.
