I think you need RX 350L. The L is the one with third row seating

Which is pretty much useless

Wait 3+ months if you can for the market to normalise

The shortage is subsiding

Toyota Highlander

RX350 And Pilot are prehistoric. The CX9 is too small and the MDX has the garbage 9speed transmission

I like the 9 speed in my TLX

Tahoe

Said they wanted it to last a while

funny

Acura or Honda are top tier reliability wise.

Get an MDX

Have an 05 MDX, still runs 200k miles strong. Not many cars on your list can do that

I just traded in a CX-5 for a CX-9, and I don't have a bad word to say about either one.

Mazda is absolutely killing it right now. Quality and luxury equal to an Acura or Lexus for the price of a Honda or Toyota.

I also looked at the MDX and the Pilot. They are a little larger with more cargo and rear legroom. (I'm honestly not sure adults can really use the 3rd row seats in my CX-9!)

Thanks Sl1, appreciate your response. 🙏

I guess Luck matters a lot even if you perform well. There would be always someone who will do better than you.

I am getting demotivated, but have to continue trying hard.

I really wish luck could be on my side.

How do you sell a new product to an existing customer that’s 3-5x more expensive than what they’re already paying for?

Out of curiosity. How would a company view a potential candidate who has a period of unemployment to study for the CPA. I am considering to start studying for the exam but I know I would need to leave my employer in order to give 110%. I am contemplating the idea of at least passing one part while employed. Then leaving my employer to study FAR. I am considering to leave my current employer anyways, so it’s more of how my future employer would view that lapse.

Upper management's direction is to put together the most aggressive deadlines we can. If we think a project will take 16 months, make the plan for 10 months then there's a chance we may launch in 13 months.

I understand that time to market is important in consumer product goods, but being constantly behind schedule and rushing everything is terrible for the team's morale.

Need some advice, bought a 2023 Kia and we noticed over 65mph it vibrates/pulsates. Been back to the dealer a few times and they can’t seem to find the cause. We have engaged a lawyer but Illinois outcomes using lemon law apparently are not the best. We have been advised to use the federal magnuson-moss warranty act,the lawyer is going to seek their fees from the manufacture but if we choose not to go through with them after X days , we would have to pay their fees. Is that correct ?

If it makes a difference I’m in SoCal so gas is $$$, but no EV charging in my apartment.

Tesla: $830/month + charging and insurance
BMW: $600/m + $150 gas + maint/insurance

Any thoughts? Is the Tesla worth it?
