We still have our 2010 Lexus GX-360. Hasn’t given us any problems.
But it is a gas hog, and only takes Premium.

Yeah, we have a 1999 Lexus RX300 with 348K and a 2013 IS250 with 129K. Never a non-normal maintenance problem, except the RX300 at 250K had to have a sensor replaced. I did it myself...I think it was around $100 for the sensor. I get about 18MPG to 24MPG in the RX300 and I get between 28MPG to 34MPG in my IS250. The IS250 burns premium...it’ll burn regular, but you do see a performance difference so I just stick with premium. Since the plandemic, I work from home so it doesn’t cost me much on a regular basis.
I’ve had a lot of experience with different vehicles in my long life with lots of kids...by far my Datsuns (210 and 280Z), Toyotas(4x4 4runner and 4x4 pickup) and Lexuses (RX300 and IS250) have been the most rugged and reliable.
That is one thing car buyers have to consider when buying a car. You have to bite the bullet and pay for premium. The cars will run on lesser grades of gas, but it is not good for the engine in the long run..
