That's a lot of money to drop new.
$60K out the door after initial depreciation. Might be a nice vehicle to buy after 3 years and 60% depreciation.

LX570? Is that a SUV with the Toyota 5.7L?
ONLY $70k? for a 13mpg SUV? Should have bought a CDI for depreciation purposes.

I can think of at least 2 dozen vehicles I'd rather spend $70K on than a truck with a nice interior.
I'm certainly not going to tell someone else how to spend their money, but to my mind that is crazy.

Damn, my parents played an April Fools joke on me....
No Lexus... Although, my dad is awaiting on a response from the dealer about his offer on a 2004 SL65.

I am sure you could turn a LX570 into a nice mall cruiser with sliders, lift kit and a nice set of ARB bumpers.

They are alright if you are middle aged and balding.
I like the GX470's.

If you're middle-age and balding, you really need one of these:

So, at what age bracket must one be in order to seriously consider a BUICK?
(btw, I still have hair...)
