Now, his daily is a 2010 Acura MDX SH AWD and puts the Lexus to shame in every way and it's 8 years old with 140k on it. Having driven the RX350 quite a bit, it really changed my opinion of Lexus and not in a good way.

It's always interesting to see people views on cars.
I agree with the media argument on the Lexus, much prefer our X5s idrive which in my opinion is the best in the business however the argument here is the long term reliability. I've only had the RX for a year so can't be sure of the long term but as I said before imo it's debatable whether BMW has a better one than the Japanese. I also cross shopped the MDX and jaguar F-pace but non was even close to the ride and luxury of the RX so we chose the RX.
