I hope to know how long I should expect it to last.I plan on trading it out someday for another Lexus SUV with actual 4x4 - a Lexus LX or GX. The year model range will be between 2008 - whatever year is 5 years before the date of purchase.

When I was growing up, my stepfather always said that a car is nothing but a hole to throw money into, and 15 years later, I had to agree with that sentiment because I became the owner of the Olds.

Oh, wait -- there are now driverless cars -- I guess it doesn't matter.
