A dangerous car to drive

This is the only new car I ever bought and returned in 24 hours. Being a long distance driver and depending on 'cruise control' for most of my driving, Lexus decided to eliminate the very convenient cruise control lever and switch to buttons on the right side of the steering wheel. Besides the cruise control buttons, there are 5 other buttons in the same area, so to be sure you're pushing the right button, you need to take your eyes of the road, which is very dangerous. Very poor design. Additionally, the 'computer like mouse pad', which the driver needs to use in order to navigate around their infotainment center, is almost impossible to use while driving without the driver taking their eyes off the road. Very poor thinking and no regard for the safety of the driver or his passengers by Lexus. Neither the sales person nor a 'techie' at the dealership couldn't figure out how to correctly use the mouse pad to accomplish all its functions. The interior, which was to be 'parchment', had far too much dark brown on the dash, doors, etc. My mistake was buying this LS500 without taking it out for a test drive.

I can tell you that his vehicle does not lose his value like any other brand that you buy it and you can sell it for the same price you bought for maybe 5% less but it’s worth every penny you pay for it Lexus A hold the value forever
