I don't drive anything, I like money in the bank.
And the RX400H has barely any improvement over a conventional gas one, that's my beef. The Hybrid is purely a gimmick for foolish customers. It shows Toyota's disrespect and cynicism, the company is not about "value" to the customer anymore.
have you ever rode in a Lexus? I've been impressed everytime, more so than current SUV models of Chevy. All chevy's heavily rely on plastic it seems...
Meh

"WASHINGTON â Federal prosecutors have launched a criminal investigation into Toyota Motor Corp.'s safety problems and the Securities and Exchange Commission was probing what the automaker told investors, the company disclosed Monday. Newly released internal documents showed that Toyota officials visited with U.S. regulators years ago who "laughed and rolled their eyes in disbelief" over safety claims."
BIZARRE.
I believe there is a conflict of interest here with GM being heavily owned by the American public. I really don't trust any "official" releases from the American Government

The main reason I don't buy any of the government conspiracy theories is that our government is just too incompetent to pull off much of anything.
Motivated customers who learn specific driving techniques can extract terrific gas mileage out of any Hybrid model Toyota or Lexus. They're really oriented towards beep-n'-creep city driving, where idling the gas engine is highly wasteful. For Joe Shmoe living in Kansas, I agree, no difference. For someone in San Francisco, Los Angeles, or New York, there are major benefits to be had.Quote from Renegen:

I havenât had even one person come in with a Toyota in the past month because of all of this, and I live outside of DC where there is a lot of diversity and a lot of Toyotaâs around. I donât think any other salesperson has either. In fact a few people have actually told me they were just going to wait until this blows over and then buy one.
I bought a 2010 tacoma 4x4 2 weeks ago during the height of this news for 600 over dealer cost. They took 50% off an extended warranty to 100k miles and threw in a bed extender.
I told the saleslady "I have a checkbook in my car and it doesnt matter to me if I buy a ford, dodge, chevy, nissan or toyota today I just want a base 4x4 crew cab with stick and I want it cheap...and you guys are hurting, what are you gonna do for me?" She looked at me and said "your right.."and sold it to me cheap to get out the inventory.
Good products at a depressed price are never a bad thing.
