2014 Lexus RX 350 - Love my Lexus
This was my second Lexus, and I am hooked. It is the perfect size for my current stage in life (no young children, take one family road trip a year, space for groceries and carpool). It's a well-made car, that feels good to drive and looks amazing. The steering and handling are better than many of the other luxury SUVs I have owned. The four-wheel drive does phenomenally in the Michigan snow. The leather seats can be heated or cooled with the turn of a button. In the summer is an added bonus to have the cooled seat; however, the fan in the seat will begin to make a whirring sound after being on a while, which some may find annoying. Also, regarding the seats, Lexus could produce a longer-lasting leather. This is my second Lexus, and at around the two-year mark, the leather starts to de... (more)

In the summer is an added bonus to have the cooled seat; however, the fan in the seat will begin to make a whirring sound after being on a while, which some may find annoying. Also, regarding the seats, Lexus could produce a longer-lasting leather. This is my second Lexus, and at around the two-year mark, the leather starts to deteriorate and look worn. This affects the aesthetic of the car as well as resale. The infotainment system is better than that in some of my previous cars and worse than others. It takes too many steps to make a phone call, and I often end up using my phones virtual assistant instead, which can be a driving distraction. I do a lot of interstate and mountain driving, and this car handles well in all terrains - mountain driving and city driving as well. It turns tight and has a great back-up camera and GPS system, making city driving and parallel parking a breeze. The cargo space is large enough to move my kids to and from college, but not bulky in height. It gets reasonable gas mileage for its size category and can run on regular gasoline. The sound system is superior as well. Overall, this is a really great car.
Once, in the summer, we drove the car out to one of the local lakes. The initial plan was to park the car and walk to watch the sunset. We saw other SUVs on the beach and decided to give it a try. We parked in a way that we could see the sunset from the rear of the vehicle, popped open the hatch, and sat in the back watching the beautiful summer sunset.

Heated and cooled seats, sound system, tight drive, four-wheel drive, regular gasoline, style, and cargo space.

Leather seats wear too quickly, only moderate fuel efficiency, and archaic infotainment system.

2014 Lexus RX 350 - Fantastic, luxury SUV.
The Lexus RX 350 is one of the best vehicles I've ever driven in terms of style, comfort, and luxury. This is the second Lexus RX 350 I've had, and I may never own a different model! I've driven about 30,000 miles in this car and have not had any maintenance issues. It gets great gas mileage for an SUV and has one of the smoothest rides I've ever experienced.

My husband and I decided to move houses ourselves rather than renting a van. We were only moving two miles away. It took a bunch of carloads, but the Lexus held so much more stuff than we'd ever expected! Who knew a luxury SUV could take the place of a U-haul in a pinch!

The interior design is luxurious with smooth leather and wood features. The stereo navigation is easy to use and integrate with apps such as Pandora or Sirius XM, and it is simple and quick to change music without taking your eyes off the road. The stereo is high quality -- perfect for listening to podcasts or singing along to your favorite music! The cargo space in the car is outstanding for a smaller SUV and had plenty of room for a large tent and all our camping supplies. The drive is smooth and comfortable, particularly for long road trips. One night in a pinch I had to sleep in the Le... (more)

The main negatives for this vehicle would be if your family is larger than four people, there might not be enough room for everyone and their belongings. Also, the cost can be high compared to other SUVs, though the Lexus reliability makes this a good investment. The nitrogen-filled tires are fantastic, but when they need to be replaced, can be very costly.
