    I believe in 2010 is the first year with AWD in the IS350. I’m doing a two year review now.

    This will be my last season as an estimator for a fence company.
    Been measuring and selling now for 33 years, for the same company.
    Its finally time to ride off into the sunset with my wife Debb, who I have been married to for 46 years.

    Sounds like a real successful life....pretty cool on the job as well! Enjoy that retirement.

    5 years, 10.5 months left for me, but I’m not counting or anything.

    In my early years I worked on Fishing Charters in the gulf, helping customers mostly baiting there hooks. It didn't pay real well. After a few years I got really good and was promoted to "Master Baiter"............ :) It didn't pay much more :(

    I'll stay tuned, just remember that the stuff you use to connect circuits in a house isn't the same as on a car.

    I'm 31 and am dealing with this exact thing... I sort of feel like I'm in an age crisis because I'm single and could date mid 20's or early 40's and either one wouldn't be weird and that's weird to me.

    Yes! Do NOT go IS250.
    Once you drive the IS350, you’ll never want to set foot in a 250 again. The 350 was such a fun little RWD car.
    The 350 is also much more reliable as Colorado mentioned. :)
    My old girl I recently got rid of. I put around 70K miles on her and only replaced a water pump and alternator. Ran like new when I sold it a few months back.
    I’ll be in search of a new RWD fun sedan by years end.

    It’s a hard but rewarding job. Entry level positions, well, not so much.
