Despite these shortcomings, I much prefer Toyota's drive-train and driving dynamics. Something about their attention to detail, refinement, and utter drive for perfection in excellence .

Damn, it looks like you like Lexus/Toyota more than me! LOL!!!
My dad has had 3 Highlander's in... 12 years, awesome cars, we BEAT THE SHÍT out of them, and my dad ain't your scheduled maintanence kind of guy... LOL!!! And they all worked well until their deaths... (ALL totaled)
His coworker had a 2001 that he just got rid of last year... It had OVER 400,000 miles, granted all highway miles, but holy crap, it's still a lot, and it only started to burn about a quart of oil every 5k miles after it hit 350k miles...
Same with my best friend's Lexus RX300, 2003, 268k miles, and that thing KICKED LIKE A MULE, LOL
