and I would much rather drive an es350 over an Avalon. Avalon says old and retired, es350 says mature and successful, but reasonable enough to know better than to buy German.The results look quite reasonable.
The big surprise for me is the difference between Toyota and Lexus. Both very reliable vehicles - with Lexus being slightly better than Toyota if anything. Could be a difference in hourly rates, but probably more Toyota owners are DIY types. And there are some fairly basic Toyotas (Corollas et al) and no basic Lexi.
A true comparison would be between Avalons and ES350s. Maybe little or no difference in costs.
