Bill es300

I viewed on NBC news the other night an RX owner who stated that his wife had experienced the same problem. I don't know if this was a single incident or one of many. Bill

I now see that the RX is being added to the list of cars affected. The Lexus sales staff all state , just a floor mat problem that doesn't affect RX's. My wife and I are poised to purchase an RX, however my wife and I are sceptical, about the Lexus answer, and have put the brakes on regarding a purchase. This from die hard Lexus fans, we are keeping our 1999 Lexus ES 300 for now. Bill

We are selling our 1999 ES300 and buying a 2010. I retired two years ago and we travel a few times a year to Oregon, Nevada and Arizona. I think the RX is the ideal vehicle for us, more room for the stuff we seem to accumulate wherever we go, the seats sit a little higher which makes my knee feel better on a long trip. I amthinking of a 2 wheel drive, we live in northern CA. and don'have much use for AWD, are there other advantages to AWD than snow or ice ? The only advantage to GPS is the backup camera, anyone disagree and have other ideas. The ES is a beautiful car, I like everything about it, better ride, better milage, less expensive. I would appreciate any and all ideas about either car, my wife likes the ES better however she will go along with the RX if I whine about my knee. Thanks Very much Bill PS I have a truck that my wife hates to ride in, too rough a ride.
