My wife has a 2009 Lexus RX350 AWD SUV that we take to the lake, down south to Topsail Island, NC and then to Florida. Avg MPG on the highway is low 24's. She had a 1994 Volvo 850 wagon when kids were younger, third seat and all. Loved it all the way to 247191 miles and gave it away, in 2008, to a friends freshly minted young driver ... it's still running . Loved the third seat set up .. tight, but I never sat back there. Lexus gives me the old man comfort I want, but I have to agree the warranty is not as strong as what you would get from GM / Ford today. If I was in the mkt today, I would look at a Lincoln or Buick for a potential replacement.
