To David and lust4speed, thank you for understanding. Time has gotten way to precious nowadays for eveyone, delears included. The old let me go talk to my manager is almost a thing of the past. It waste very valueable time for all involved. Plus here at our dealership, I/we do it all, you'll never be rushed into the finance office to have your brains jacked out for more money.

David, congrats on your purchase. I'm glad I was able to offer some assitance. I actually cost myself a deal yeserday by helping a lady in Cleveland on a new volvo. Why should she drive 4 hours just to buy the vehicle at the same price here as her local dealer. I told her what she should be able to buy the car for, she called me at home last night to thank me for helping her.

Enjoy the new Highlander

I ordered a new 1996 Toyota RAV4 2WD back in 1996. She took delivery in July 1996. It now has 86,766 miles and we have only had normal service repairs, never had any warranty during the entire time we have owned, so would say it has been a very reliable vehicle. Up until 2001 she was the sole driver, as I had a Company car and used it for more or our driving. Since 2001 we use it for our daily driver as it is the most economical vehicle we have.

Of all of the vehicles we have owned, none have been as reliable and cost effective to drive especially for 86K mileage. It is no wonder Toyota and Honda are rated so high in quality and reliability.

Happy motoring in your new purchase. Just got an email from a friend that has always been a Ford fan, he just bought a 2012 Tundra. Said he drove a Chevy, Ford and Ram truck and felt the Tundra was the best, in his opinion.

I recently heard that Tundra in 2013 will offer the new Cummins V-6 Diesel engine they have developed.

I bought my 1st Tundra in 2005 (double cab). It was my 1st Toyota, though I've had various Honda's over the years. I gave the 2005 to my 16 year old son on his birthday earlier this year. I liked the 2005 so much I found a low mileage 2006 double cab in Texas for a replacement.

Honda's and Toyota's in the 70's and early 80's would rust away in southern Arizona. Once they got the metal figured out they've been solid.

My first was a 85 Toyota Supra, sold it with 160K miles on it and everything still worked and zero issues other than the timing belt replacement. We've owned a Sienna since early 08, tires, gas and oil...
