Default So Long...

I'm sad to say that I'm trading my Rx450h for a more affordable ride. I drive very little outside of a 12 mile round trip commute 5-6 days a week. I just can't keep up with the payments on this car, especially driving so little. Maybe I'll return someday. I really enjoyed the RX for the short time I had it. I wish you all well. Getting into a 2015 Honda Fit EXL. We currently have a 2010 Fit Sport that has been great. They've added more features to the Fit, and it's anything but an econobox.

I'm sorry to hear that, Dadofruth. Maybe some time in the not so distant future you'll be back in an RX. Feel free to drop in every once in a while. Lexus ownership is not required to be a member. And best of luck with the Honda Fit.

Why thank you. I will drop in from time to time. The way things go with me, I tend to change vehicles often. I could simply give the current vehicle to my wife, and start again...

Best of luck with your new FIT EX-L. It sounds like a perfect fit for your commute. No pun intended.

Honda makes very reliable vehicles.

Sad to hear you've left the Lexus family, but doing what's right for your situation is always best.
Good luck with your future adventures. Honda makes a great vehicle -- loved my Prelude and Accord years ago, and my brother still swears by his Civic that has proven to be not only comfortable and affordable, but a real workhorse for him.

Thanks guys. I really appreciate the well wishes. I was not given the same courtesy on a GM forum when I moved on from their luxury brand for the RX.

Best of luck with your new Honda ! I hope it will be a great ride...Honda is well respected ! I recently purchased an RX, and love it. Sorry you had to trade, but changes happen. Maybe someday you can enjoy another one. Have a great Labor Day !!
