Keep us informed! I would hope you could get $35-$37K at Lexus in trade and $38-$40K selling on your own. A dealer other than Lexus I would expect probably $31-33K :( . I also have an '08 400h, (but 2wd) and premium pkg and love the car, but not the payment (starting to think it is more car than I need), so I am curious as to what you get for yours. By the way, my local dealer has this GS 450h Hybrid that may or may not interest you: http://www.eskridgelexus.com/VehicleDetails/329722663

Well here it is! I am very happy with the outcome. One of a kind hitch!

Safety too....compare the Lexus to the Mercury in crash ratings and standard safety features. Can't put a price on that if you ask me. Seems like the Mercury had a 3 star driver (rest was 5 star) and the Lexus has 5 star all the way.

90 views and only 2 votes! lol. I had the guy make the "h". I will let you know how it turns out.

I knew if I looked long enough I would find it. It is quick and basic, but it gives you the idea. RX Nav removal video

I won a laser cut stainless steel highly polished trailer hitch on ebay. The seller has offered to create a custom one if interested for an additional $20. I came up with a Lexus Oval with the hybrid "h" in the middle. The turtle is the one I actually won though. Which do you prefer?

Good points NeoN and jrober!

I can't seem to find it, but there is a video on youtube that shows it. It wasn't very difficult looking. I thought it was on the Coastaletech.com, but I couldn't find it there. Sorry.

Mine was a 2WD w/ nav and it stickered for $49K and we got it for $46K. I found what you said, Highlander was stickering $47K loaded as we would like albeit with AWD, but the wheel upgrade worried me for tire replacement cost (19"). Also, little things like only the driver window had one-touch up and down while the Lexus has all 4 windows one-touch. Just little things here and there. Believe me I wanted a Highlander to be it simply because a Toyota dealer is just about 10 miles away while our Lexus is about 25 miles away. For maintence that was important to me, but in the end I am very pleased with the RX400H.

The lack availability of the highlander hybrid a month ago is what pointed me towards the RX400H, but I was interested in at least looking at the Highlander had it been available to even look at. Also, I figured I wouldn't be able to get as good a deal since the demand was so high. I think there is a post somewhere about the differences between the two.

Awesome! Thank you very much! I have that album bookmarked! I have an 08 and will get my first oil change for free, but after that I am all about doing it myself with a better filter and synthetic oil!

I went to the dealership today for my 1K checkup and asked if there is anyway service could overide the Nav and they told me nope. So if it can be done they aren't doing it upon request.

Thanks for the post to the DIY. That was a big help in deciding on whether to buy or not!

Isn't that crazy? How much air actually makes that much of a difference?
