My guess is that his father abused him as a child.

But seriously folks!

Some people are "mis-matchers".  Simply put, this means that they ALWAYS
find the dark cloud in every silver lining.  Long Dong clearly has the need
to "prove" something, and he derives some sort of perverted joy in finding
meaningless articles about how crappy Lexus is and how their sales are
tanking, blah blah blah.  The whole 100mS thing is fascinating to me, as I
happen to own one of those 8 gear CVTs, and have absolutely no trouble
smoking Porches off the road (much to their surprise).  I've had my LS600 up
to 135mph on the highway (yeah, I know, dangerous, illegal, dumb, whatever),
and it was purring like a kitten, with no hint of a shift all the way up,
and all the way down.  It's like those idiots who claim that they hear the
difference between varieties of speakers with similar ratings and rolloffs.
They can't -- they just want to show everyone how smart they are, and how
inferior everyone else is to them.  Thus you have Long Dong and
McBrew-jerk -- the two loudest mis-matchers on the board (although, I fear
there are more than just these two).  I'm guessing that Dongle does not
drive a Lexus, and is probably somewhere in the vicinity of 12 years old (if
not physically, at least mentally), and I'm pretty sure his mommy would be
very angry if she knew that little Johnnie was posting nasties on the
internet.

BTW Dave -- I have similar statistics on the 9 or 10 Lexi I've owned since
1990.  They simply do not break, and the routine maintenance (while more
expensive than Yugo's) is done professionally, and flawlessly.  But then
again, I'm clearly a Lexus employee, so I'm biased.  Right Brewski?
