      Enrique A Montero Absolutely, just the other day I was in my buddies 2019 Ford Ranger and all I could think was how cheap it felt. The doors where like tin cans, the armrest was already tearing, the engine was so rough at idle. Not knocking Ford, it’s just once you drive a well built Lexus, it ruins other cars for you.

      I know. The build quality from the "Takumi" team has no comparison.
