I own two Lexus cars (Toyota) and two diesel cars so I get the best of the both worlds

I am the only member of my family to have ever owned a Toyota.... we were dedicated Subaru owners...... however, I don't care for the Toyotas, it seems as if they hit a certain age and everything just falls apart (the only good thing is that age is much higher than say a Chevy or Ford). Couldn't say that about my Subaru.... its body would rust to high heaven, but the motor and every other functioning part of the vehicle would stay working for ever. Love the Mercedes and Subaru!

I had a Toyota that entered that phase of its life....everything was starting to act weird or not work quite right....I sold it quickly. The MB I replaced it with has almost the same miles on it now that the Toyota did, but it is oh so much nicer/better. Can't even compare....despite being over 7 years older than the Toyota...
