This is the perfect mid-size SUV for living in Qatar. Very powerful acceleration gets you safely through the round-abouts or across the sand. Powerful air conditioning and interior air filtration gets you through the hot summers. The car is fully loaded and I am only the second owner. The car was shipped from the US in 2009 and it has been a wonderful and reliable vehicle the entire time. The V 8 engine is larger than offered in any comparable size SUV and it is a “bullet-proof” Lexus model 4.7 L model. I always use synthetic oil and factory Toyota filters (comes with extra oil & air filters). New battery installed 6 months ago. This Toyota will be reliable transport and fun for years to come.
