On-screen text

I was looking at that, but they said they have too many problems with it. So what makes you wanna get Lexus instead of a Mercedes or a Porsche? I need something that's reliable. I ain't trying to be stuck on side of the road with a check engine light on. And I'm good with Lexus. I don't need. That's the difference between me and my mom. She likes reliable cars. I like fast foreign cars. The cars that are not the most reliable.
