2008 Lexus LS600hL
October 10, 2008
What’s with all the complaints? If it’s laid-back smoothness you’re looking for, the LS600hL is where it’s at.
The Lexus LS has gotten a bunch of flack from us journalists, mostly because it’s so distant and removed that its driver’s relationship with the road is no closer than its passengers’. As much as I love drivers’ cars (and, oh do I ever), Lexus never pretended that the LS was to appeal to enthusiasts. The LS is supposed to appeal to their antitheses – people who don’t want to be bothered with the task of driving at all. I mean, why else would this thing park itself?

2007 Lexus LS460L – Four Seasons Wrap-up
October 10, 2008
It’s still the definitive Lexus, but it might be time to stretch the definition.
The Lexus LS might not be the brand’s best-selling model (that would be the RX crossover), but it is certainly Lexus’s signature vehicle. When Toyota launched Lexus in late 1989, it was the LS400, far more than the rectangular, Camry-esqe ES250, that captured the public’s imagination. Since then, the top Lexus sedan has had a remarkably evolutionary . . . well, evolution.

2008 Lexus LX570
October 10, 2008
A Leatherman on wheels. This dressed-up Land Cruiser can replace a fleet of vehicles.
Single-task screwdrivers and one-purpose pliers do their specific jobs better than any multitask tool, but the convenience of having a whole toolbox in your pocket is worth some small sacrifices. That’s why every handyman loves a Leatherman. Like the Toyota Land Cruiser on which it’s based, the Lexus LX570 is the Leatherman of the automotive world.
