I worked 25 years in the paper industry, and I agree, if I could make the same money, and work 8 to 5, I'd be out of here too. It's a great business, but the hours are K-I-L-L-E-R.....

Doesnt the negotiation of these cars stop early when the inventry is hard to get? Honestly, Toyota and Honda cars havent lost any of thier following. Doesnt make sense to me.

Normally, a tight supply means pricing is firm. But as I've posted earlier - Toyota is trying to regain market share.

But as I posted above, supply isn't as big a problem as people think it is.

And the ADVERTISEDdiscounts on Toyota's are significant.

On Rochester Toyota's webpage:

2011 Toyota Corolla - MSRP - $20,410.00 - Web pricing - $18,399.00 (14 in stock)

2011 Toyota Camry - MSRP - $25,125.00 - Web pricing - $22,439.00 (4 in stock)

2011 Toyota Avalon - MSRP - $38,844.00 - Web pricing - $34,799.00 (8 in stock)

2012 Toyota Highlander - MSRP - $40,987.00 - Web pricing - $37,599.00 (12 in stock)
