Thank you Colegar, that is a very good review on your impressions of the vehicle and it means a lot from somebody who drives it on daily basis. Curious on one note, I did think that the TPMS does show you on the display which tire is low on air, meaning on the small LCD on the instrument cluster.?

When the TPMS comes on in any car, it's because there is something usually in the tread (nail, glass, screw, etc.). A tire will not "seep" enough air for the TPMS to come on. This being said, it's usually easy enough to spot the low tire, or if the tire isn't leaking (rapidly) the offending cause poking out of the tire.
 
I have TPMS in my 4Runner as well, it doesn't tell me which tire, but I figure it has easily saved me from buying two tires that might have other wised been ruined had the light NOT come on (telling me I had a problem somewhere) and allowing me to safely pull over and inspect the tires.
 
It doesn't seem it takes that long anymore to run a short distance on a flat tire and ruin it!

It depends on the car
My Acura tells me the tire pressure of all 4 tires.
So far sensor has not shown "low tire pressure" as all are above 32 PSI

"The Lexicon is the absolute best audio system I have ever seen in an automobile"
 
Okay, but how does it sound?

If this has been already posted, I apologize. I was impressed, however, with the review, and the following portions stood out:
 
"The Genesis profile also speaks premium...."
 
"...fit, finish, and soft touch materials that are equal or better than European rivals."
 
"On the track, our V8 Genesis was a delightful surprise, charging from 0 to 60 in a fast 5.8 seconds...."
 
"In terms of driving dynamics, the Genesis sports a nearly perfectly balanced chassis...."
 
"Through the twisties, Genesis is far more agile than many large sedans."

To ricwhite,
 
I knew that someone was going to catch me on saying that I was "seeing" the sound from the Genesis Lexicon. Well ... I am originally from the hills of Arkansas so what did you expect???!
 
It was not too much of a stretch to say I could "see" the sound as good as it is! I can definitely "feel" it.

Honestly Colegar...seeing your music is a good thing. I don't know how some of you feel, but a really good system is one that can make you "see" the performers. What I mean is...if you're sitting in your car and you close your eyes...do you simply just hear the music or is it alive enough that you can picture the artist in front of you singing and the band backing the artist up. I love it when a sound system sounds THAT good.

Thanks for this info. Maybe my battery drain was a fluke that others will not experience. I will post whether or not mine is truly rectified the next time I leave it parked at an airport for four or more days.

That is definitely not true that when the TPMS comes on it is because the tires have a nail or something in any car. I have a 2004 Mountaineer and a 2009 Fusion and mine will come on when the pressure is low which usually occurs when the temperature suddenly drops to the single digits for a couple of days. I will then take them to have them filled and will find that the pressure is down o 24 psi or something. Only had the TPMS on once in the Mountaineer because of a nail.
