I have a 2022 Lexus RX450h, and this vehicle handles like a dream. With 308hp, it gives the power whenever you need it at whatever speed. I was lucky to get this one for 2022 was the last year Lexus produced a Lexus RX with a V6. Love my RX450h and so far, no issues with this vehicle and I average around 25/30 MPG. It also took a while to get used to this high tech marvel for I upgraded from a 2014 RAV4 Limited AWD with 65K miles. It’s a great car with no issues except basic maintenance, and I gave it to my wife as a daily commuter. Scotty, I surely enjoy your videos.

Lexus is ruining their brand with moving to 4-cylinder turbos for everything. I have a 2013 RX 350, and that V6 is an awesome engine. As Scotty says, it's all about physics. Smaller engine with a heavier vehicle, turbo ramming air into the engine, increasing pressure. Those things are doomed to blow up in about half the time.

It has 3 rows of seats and nearly all of the electronic features of the more expensive Lexus. It's a treat to drive and time flies as I listen to my favorite audible book on that beautiful large screen. Reason I leased is that technology is moving so fast that in three years I have the option to lease or purchase the latest and newest tech available.

I’ve had the 2003-2006 RX330 unfortunately lots of things went wrong with it so we sold it, but I loved the car. It was fully loaded and comfy. I’m in a 2015 NX now and I love it even more. I recommend the RX for a family but if it’s just you and maybe one or two more people at most then then the NX has a lot of style and is a nice smaller RX

After some soul searching, I've cautiously gone with a 2023 Honda CR-V Sport Hybrid. There's a lot to love about these cars. However, I have noticed a lot of release noise from the brakes, especially taking off on a hill, and a chirping when the ICE is running associated with the climate control... hoping nothing too major 1000 miles in...

No late model Tahoe or Durango? Gee, I wonder why? Those things have more problems than a high school algebra book. One of my neighbors has a late 90s Ford Expedition with the 2 valve 5.4 and 4 speed OD automatic. It's got 250,000 miles on it and it's all original except for the alternator that had to be replaced at about 225,000 miles. The Expedition and Lincoln Navigator were pretty solid during those years.
