That seemed odd to me but maybe Mrs E got a
good deal on a leftover 2016 model.
I'm sure Richard knows the story.

BTW..Toyota sent me a form letter today saying how special I am owning a
2013 Highlander and living in this geographic area. Due to high demand
for my model they have a special promotions on to enable be to upgrade to a 2017 model.
Aren't those car salesmen thoughtful.


It is a 2016 model. Had 3K miles on it as a dealer "demo" but is
warranted and titled as "new". Peppy little sucker though and quiet.
All that matters is that "she" likes it.

Don't know if they still make them or not.

I got a similar letter about the Nissan Altima I bought just about a
year ago. "Due to a shortage of clean, previously owned autos we can
offer you 125% of the current market value of your 2016 Nissan Altima
towards the purchase of any new Nissan product.

Geeze. Gimme a chance to put a few miles on it first, will ya?



My buddy went to the GMC dealer for some new tires on his 2015 diesel
pickup. Came home with a 2017. They gave him $43k for the truck, $10k off
the new one, a $700 Costco gift card and some other stuff. So instead of
spending a grand for new tires, got a new truck for not a lot more.
