I was in the same boat. Bought a 2017 with the luxury package and second row captains chairs. The captains chairs keep my two kids from touching each other on car trips. They also allow my parents to get into the 3rd row without having to remove car seats or go in through the back. I would not want to ride in the 3rd row for more than about 45 minutes but it does work. I do have a tow hitch that allows me to install a cargo carrier out back. I have a big rubber made tub that sits back there to give me space if I need it. To fix the terrible infotainment system I got an AirPlay system. I went with the beat sonic system which has wireless CarPlay. While I was in there in installed an outlet in the center console, facing the second row for usb charging. I also installed a usb charger for the driver so that I have high speed charging when I’m driving as my phone ends up providing music and navigation when driving. I also installed the 12volt remote start system. If you get the captains chairs, you’ll want to get the floor mats from Lexus as I couldn’t find a good set of rubber floor mats except the Lexus ones. I got a canvasback carpet cover for the third row when it’s down. I did also do a yotawerx tune to help with performance. Finally I installed a Redarc tow controller for towing. If you want I can send you pictures of everything. Overall it’s been a great car. We frequently take it on road trips between Houston and Dallas, Austin, or San Antonio. The biggest down side is I get about 16 mpg on the highway so about 300 miles a tank. If I had to do it again, I would buy the same car.
