The X5 is an upgrade in every manner vs a TX. Price too. But, hey, you get what you pay for.
Hopefully the ownership experience is better than your Lexus experience.

i got 10% off msrp on a brand new 2025 x5 50e with some hard to get packages. Plus $2k in rebates total. One was for financing the other for conquest cash from BMW for coming from Lexus.

this seems to be a much nicer car. Better on gas. More features and it’s more or less a cayenne killer. Don’t know why I dumped my q7 I had before this but sometimes you win sometimes you lose.

either way I’m very excited to pass this bag of lemons off to the dealer. When they look at the service history they will be terrified. Good riddance.

It was a pleasure being on the boards for 11 months and 20k miles or so. Cheers and happy new year to everyone.

Exactly why I went with the performance premium package and avoided the moonroof!

I have lemoned cars in past and recommended www.normantaylor.com to many people. They set a record in California with a case against Lexus. Manufacturers buckle when they get the notice of representation and offer a buyback.

Did the same route with no glass on the roof which is harder to find.

I would look at a traverse. I don't think it would be as nice inside as a TX though. appreciate your input, maybe I will try to see if I can drive a 2025 when I get a chance.

Take a look at the new Buick Enclave, which is a more premium/luxurious option over the Traverse.

3rd Row Seat Malfunction

I am having continued problems with the 3rd row seat back on the driver's side. When in the up position, there is clearance on the passenger side between the seat back and the trunk (about finger width). On the driver's side, there used to be a similar clearance, but now it there is zero clearance. In the down position, there is a slight hump on the driver's side, and no hump on the passenger side. I used to be able to flatten the hump, but it is now stuck in that position. I have not been able to get the dealer to recognize, much less fix the problem.
