Why I Love the Lexus GS F

by

Lexus GS F ReviewI love watching videos of exotic cars pushed to the extreme limits of their abilities on the track, but they don’t really give you an understanding of what it’s like to own the car. On a daily basis, how often are you going to push any car to those types of limits? The somewhat sad truth is that these powerhouses are going to be sitting in traffic and traveling at sub 100 mph speeds for most of their lives.  If you own one, you want to know that is has that raw performance waiting…begging to be set free with the liberating touch of your right foot, but you should want to know what it’s like to drive when not at the track or when you’ve set your alarm to take advantage of the empty streets you’ll only find at 4am…

I’ve been driving a 2016 Lexus GS F for a month now, so instead of giving you another aforementioned flashy video showing it peeling out on the track, I thought I would let you know what’s it’s like in the real world as my daily driver.

 

 

Thanks to Lexus of Austin and Lexus of Lakeway for this amazing partnership.

    Not only have I learned everything about this model but I felt like I was in the car with you as I took it all in. I’m a big fan of Lexus. I’m driving a 2014 ES 350 now. This GS F is amazing! Thanks for the great video!

This week as part of @LeeAnneBenjamin 's and my go This week as part of @LeeAnneBenjamin 's and my goal to teach out kids something new or give them a unique experience every week this year, we're building @Lego Technic cars from @Target #Ad. I thought Noah would really be into them, but I was surprised by just how obsessed Emma has been with them too. They take a few days to make, so we've been doing a little bit most mornings or evenings. @Target has a bunch of different ones, and even has an exclusive on some of them like the green Mustang we're building, which is one of the less expensive ones. It's been an awesome way to get some good one on one time with both our kids. Check out my stories for more info and some links. #TargetPartner #TargetStyle

We’ve got a new project! I want to get the kids We’ve got a new project! I want to get the kids out fishing on the lake, but the boat slips here are either on a waitlist or too expensive to be worth it. Instead we’re going to transform this one into something we can drop in the water ourselves and spend less than we would on an annual boat slip. 
It’s not as big of a project as some we’ve done in the last, but this one should get done quickly. 
I’ve got a lot of ideas of what to add to it so we can have “Champaign taste on a beer budget.”
First up is a motor we can drive by a remote and eliminates the need for an anchor by using GPS. Check out my stories for more info

Spring's finally here, so we've finally been able Spring's finally here, so we've finally been able to get back outside. We've made a lot of changes to our backyard and are excited to share it all. One of our kids favorites is definitely the outdoor ping pong table from @Ledgelounger. It's made from high-quality resin just like their signature chairs, so it's going to stand up to just about anything the weather is going to throw at it, so we can simply enjoy it. Check out @leeannebenjamin 's stories for more info. #ad

If you haven’t been following along on @leeannebenjamin ‘s stories, we’ve been looking for a Florida home for quite a while. 
In this crazy real estate market, even if you put an offer in a house above asking the asking price, there is a good chance you won’t get it. 
We had our offer accepted on this one a couple days ago, and today was the first time we got to see it in person. I shared a walkthrough of the house on @leeannebenjamin ‘s stories, so you can see more there. 
I’m super excited to let the kids know, but we’re going to wait until the closing is done, so we can bring them both to Florida and surprise them! I can’t wait to see their faces!

Getting some quality time in with the kids. Our en Getting some quality time in with the kids. Our entire backyard has been a construction site for the last 9 months, so we’ve been having to find new stuff to keep them busy. It will be so nice to be able to just walk into our backyard again and not worry about stepping on nails 😂
On a positive note, today we got to start filling our pool with water and we are supposed be be able to swim in it by next weekend! To say we’re excited is an understatement 🙏
