Today makes one week that I have been driving our 2008 RX400 AWD/Bamboo/Ivory. At 265 miles, I am averaging 25.4 mpg which to me is remarkable given that I have a 900 foot decent to commute to work and ascent when I come home every day. I try to use cruise control whenever possible and I definitely like using the B gear on the way down the hill. I normally have all green bars by the time I get to the bottom of the hill, about a 2 mile run. The RX feels solid with lots of pickup. The fit and finish is excellent . I really like the electric rear door and the memory seats, mirrors, steering wheel feature. I like the Michelin Energy MXV4 tires. Great handling and remarkably small turning radius for an SUV. My iPhone connects without any problem via Bluetooth and I am using a tape cartridge adapter to get to the ipod music stored on it. I am waiting for the Sirius receiver and a weathertech cargo mat. to come in at the dealer.
