Post #243,411 by Another Scott 2/4/06 10:52:47 AM Reply	My Dad bought an LS 430. He's the one who is very sensitive to noise. He wanted as quiet a car as possible. The LS 430 is pretty nice, but I have to agree with [link\|http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/12/29/AR2005122901017.html\|Warren] that it's not as far ahead of the competition as one would think. They're resting on their laurels a bit too much, IMO. Cheers, Scott. (Who has only ridden in it, in the back, a couple of times.)
Post #243,418 by broomberg 2/4/06 11:33:34 AM Reply	I was in the front seat I considered offering the other passenger to swap on the ride back - 1.5 hour trip. But being the selfish bastard that I am, I thought better of it. On the other hand, the second he got it (he was behind me), I moved my seat up as far as possible to make sure he had enough leg room. He is both taller and wider than me, by far, and he did not complain about the seating. Might be the back seat is better for him due to his width. Note: Part of out trip was to Cabela's: [link\|http://www.cabelas.com/\|http://www.cabelas.com/] This place is AMAZING. Combination sports outfitter, tourist gift shop, natural history museum, gun museum, aquarium, and restaurant. One of our print plants is across the street from it.

Toyota works without tilting the seat - (ben_tilly) - (10) - Feb. 4, 2006, 11:49:13 PM EST

I tilt the seat in everything I can. - (broomberg) - (7) - Feb. 5, 2006, 09:42:06 AM EST

You're probably a lethal danger to everyone else on the road - (CRConrad) - (6) - Feb. 5, 2006, 04:18:04 PM EST

Maybe - (broomberg) - (1) - Feb. 5, 2006, 04:20:06 PM EST

Your driving was surprisingly sane -NT - (ben_tilly) - Feb. 6, 2006, 02:31:37 AM EST
