On the heater topic. I picked up my RX 400 new in October and our weather went to -30+ in November and stayed there until today. My vehicle heater works fine even better than my 2005 Highlander. I leave the RX outside and not plugged in some nights and it starts right up and is warm within 5 minutes. As a bonus the seat heaters get so hot on max you need to turn them down. In short there is plenty of heat in any weather in this vehicle, but the engine runs steady until the car warms up.
