Total miles 6319
Total gallons used = 243.16
Overall MPG = 25.99
Best tank MPG = 27.279
Worst tank MPG = 23.495
 
changed oil 4132
 
No problems
 
We were on vacation last week, so the car was not driven that week as this is a company car, and we took the wives Freestar. So actually the miles driven per week is about 702.

I have a Black 2006 CXS. I have found the paint to be softer than I would want. I have done at least ten touch up paintings on chips after nine months on the the road. I use IBIZ car care products on my Buick. I am sure Maguires will work great. Just make sure your wash mitt or sponge is completely rinsed and particle free before touching the clear coat.

No, but I believe they changed the pattern compared to 2005/2006 LaCrosse. The plastic wood finish takes on lot of heat on the web forums. Sit in one and judge for yourself. Lots of over reacting from import fanboys as far as I am concerned about it.

Total miles = 9516
Total gallons used = 368.50
overall mpg = 25.82

worst tank mpg = 23.495
 
changed oil 4132, then 8275
 
no problems. The transmission shifts smooth, the engine is quiet. Of course I have never been in a Lexus so can't compare. But for the cars / SUV / Mini vans I have driven this is the quietest, and smoothest. As stated before the driver seat needs lumbar control.

Driving a little faster, and not being a slave to the trip computer mpg as much, so I think this is why my overall mileage has went down, but i think it has leveled off in that range of 25-26 every tank. I changed the oil and rotated the tires this morning. No further comments than those listed above positve or negative. I have recommended the car to others in that type car.
