No, but I fish out of an Audi A4, and I can fit 10 foot rods inside pretty easily. Only down side is it's impossible the keep the thing clean for work.

Real Fishermen don't drive a LEXUS. Just 4Runners.

Woo hoo - now you can get longer rods. ;) Toyota/Lexus makes good vehicles.

Isn't that model the same as the Camry? After a while I forget all the damn numbers and such.

Now do ya qualify as a yuppie now? ;) My wife wants an Avalon for her next car. :P

I just purchased a new rim <vbg>. I haven't gotten new tires yet ..... but I plan to this week, or next week. I gotta get new tires for the Camry as well (dumb high speed rated tires - can't put std ones on it - all those are $120+ each). There goes my mad $.....LOL. ;)

ES 300 is basically a 6 cylinder, loaded Camry, with one exception---anything with a Lexus name plate is made in Japan, whereas all of the Camrys are made in Kentucky.

We started makeing them in Canada or will very soon. Most Lex modles are based on Toyota with some serious upgrades in comfort. Great car hope you enjoy it.

i think im gona have to give it back =[. 4k for the insurance is more then what im paying per month on the car, the insurance is way 2 much apparently medfa isnt safe enough for a lexus =[ i wish i lived in norwell ;P apparently the insurance there would be like half of what it is here(gf lives there its wat i was told by her rents)

BigBo 10-21-2004 08:06 PM

You mean to tell us that you gave absolutely no thought into the extras such as insurance before you bought it? Now you want to "give it back"??????????????????:smash: :smash:
Has anybody told you how much money you're going to loose?

macojoe 10-21-2004 08:08 PM

Use GF address!! It happens all the time!

:smash:

Surfcastinglife 10-21-2004 08:28 PM

im not loosin anythin dealer had a money back guarantee up to 3 days after pick up. i gave thought into insurance but i never figured it would be that much as an addon to my dad's policy but i guess medford is a "risk" as far as having a lexus. took it back 2day and i miss it terribly =[ and macojoe i dont think her parents would go for that oh well guess it just wasnt meant to be. ill take my dad's grand am and he'll buy a car on his own:af: :af:
