Cargo space is at a premium when the rearmost seat is in use. Fold them down (who needs to haul around eight people anyway?) and the possibilities become wide open.
PEORIA – Some Peoria area students are drumming up support for a trip to Europe. The Peoria Park District’s “ELITE” Pulses of Hope Drum Line is a group of high school students that performs at community events. The group has been chosen to represent Peoria at a festival in the city’s sister city in Germany. But first, the group must raise enough money to get there.
PEORIA – The latest numbers for retail sales in Central Illinois show surprising growth for the region. Numbers released by Bradley University show a 9.2% jump in sales between the fourth quarter of 2009 and the fourth quarter of last year. Amid all the talk of a sluggish economy, local businesses have seen the customers really start to roll in the last couple of months.
http://www.lexusofpeoria.com/ 866-604-6439 Although the GX 460 is based on one of the most rugged SUV platforms produced today, its positioning as a Lexus makes it a decidedly luxury-oriented SUV. Standard 18 inch wheels (up from 17 inchers) add to its on-road presence, as do standard illuminated running boards and a Lexus family waterfall-like horizontal grille.
After months of planning, preparation and buying Pearl Automotive will kick off their 2nd annual luxury and near luxury used car, truck and SUV Red Carpet Used Vehicle Selloff Thursday through Monday May 12, 13, 14, and 16.

http://www.lexusofpeoria.com/ 866-604-6439 Entering its second generation, the RX 450h features an enhanced Lexus Hybrid Drive system with a 3.5-liter V6 gas engine that runs on a highly efficient Atkinson cycle. Combined with a new, more efficient inverter, the total system output will be 295 horsepower — 27 more horsepower than the current generation RX hybrid.
http://www.lexusofpeoria.com/ 866-604-6439 Power comes from a combination of sources, including a 3.5-liter V6 used elsewhere in the Lexus range. In this application, it is bolstered by an electric motor. This powertrain is dubbed Lexus Hybrid Drive and is rated at a combined 340 horsepower at 6,400 rpm and 267 lb-ft of torque at 4,800 rpm.
The 250 is motivated by a 2.5-liter V6 engine, which replaced the http://www.lexusofpeoria.com/ 866-604-6439 Supra-based inline-six of the first generation. The small engine makes 204 horsepower at 6,400 rpm along with 185 lb-ft of torque at 4,800 rpm, thanks to its high compression ratio of 12.0:1 and variable valve timing. The least-expensive IS250 comes with a six-speed manual transmission that drives the rear wheels. The next step up adds a six-speed automatic, and the most expensive IS250 throws an all-wheel drive (AWD) system on top of that.
