They'll call me up to tell me it's now available, so, I should drive over to pick it up. What will I do? How I am supposed to acquire the print version of this massive manual, and then sweat and strain to get it home -- into the garage, for example? Well, the GS460 can't be configured for a trailer -- no towing with this rig, no sir-eee. So I'll have to use our 4Runner. It has a super hitch and trailer wiring plug, so I suppose I can rent a 1-ton trailer and find a fork lift somewhere to help load the manual. My wife is concerned that I am planning, yet again, to put something else into the garage. I am attempting to provide her with some reassurance. Good to know the trail forward has been broken for the rest of us ... do you remember Dylan's "Stuck Inside Of Mobile With The Memphis Blues Again"? ... images of the NYTimes, Sunday edition ... "With twenty pounds of headlines ... stapled to his chest." I can hardly wait until the manual arrives! Hey, is there a separate manual for the Mark Levinson system including satellite navigation and everything else that goes with it? Should I reserve the fork lift for a second day?

Don't quite understand the point of this post - are you trying to express how big and heavy your manual might be?

The complete package of manuals include the thickest one for the car, one for the navigation system, and several supplemental smaller manuals for the warranty and scheduled maintenance.

Nav & sun visor extension

I had my last Lexus for 11 years so I am new to navigation. I tried it for the 1st time yesterday and it’s terrible compared to Google maps. I thought I was just set in my ways or being picky, so thank for you post. EVERY exit is announced on a road trip for no reason. There is no major distinction for the exit that DOES need to be taken on the route = getting lost. Do I need to change the default setting?
The sun visor is too short. I was told there is a built in extension, but that is not the case.

It has never picked up correctly what i am asking it to do. The dealer can't even get it to do something right. I can continue to add a few more items however its not worth getting myself upset over. When you spent over 50+K one expects better. I realize Lexus is no better than any Toyota product, just more green.

All you do is pull out on the visor and it extends, it's on a sliding rail.

The Nav is terrible as you found out. Dig into some of the setup menus and you may be able to adjust some settings. I have not used it for years and don't recall much about it anymore.
