Toyotas require very little maintenance and last almost forever.

Your point?




Speaking of Toyota:

I always thought my next vehicle would be a Toyota (Sienna or
Highlander) but they're screwing us on price here. The spread between
a Toyota price in the US & locally has remained the same since our
dollar was only worth 60 US cents a few years ago...but now is over 90
cents.
When cornered they admit to charging what the market will bear.
Also, the dealers won't dicker on price. Take it or leave it seems to
be the local dealers mo.



If you can't afford it, move on. There's no point in complaining about
the price.



Not just a question of 'affording it'.
Some of us don't like to be taken for rubes.
The car dealers in Calif. must love to see you walk in.
