1996 - 2016 -- truck located in SF, CA.
2016 - Today -- truck located in Brooklyn NY.
Summary
- No lockers.
- Has not had the head gasket replaced.
- Has not had the pesky heater hose replaced.
- No oil leaks. Does not seem to consume oil at a faster rate.
- I have detailed service records from 2016 – today.
- Here is a summary of the work done in this period: 1996 LX450 Black - https://docs.google.com/document/d/1nEzJk_qomiJ_SsIagV0lvDzKYYms4pyoQMj1hj-zVf4/edit?usp=sharing
- I have Lexus service records going back to 1996, however, they do not describe work in detail or include part numbers. Just basic descriptions like “Perform 85K service” and “Customer states brake lights blinking”.
- Service done at Lexus centers in CA, and a local shop in Brooklyn -- Lorenzutti Motors.
- Tires 2 years old.
- I decided to sell the truck in late 2020. I held an auction on BaT with a final bid of $8400. The buyer flaked, and the truck has been garaged in Brooklyn since then.
- No updates since the auction ran, she's just been driven and had fluids changed periodically in the past year.
Outstanding Issues
- Right-front fender/flare. The flare was grazed while parked. The clips that attach the flare to the fender are broken, and the flare has light scratches. This fender also has some clearcoat failure along the top edge. Here is some info and leads for a replacement:

- Driver’s seat front-to-back motor inoperable. Set to farthest back position. Perfect for me. I’m 5’10”. Backrest tilting functions as it should.
- Right mirror shakes. Just the mirror part, not the assembly.
- Some DIY information here: shakey sideview mirror FIX - https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/shakey-sideview-mirror-fix.83177/.

- Antenna telescoping mast only has about 3” of travel. Does not have full telescoping movement. Radio still 100%, and one the plus side the antenna doesn’t risk getting bent at the car wash.
- Right-back wheel – was re-mounted upside-down as the spare, so has some cosmetic damaged from facing the road.
- No third row of seats included in sale.
