Received a letter from Toyota today.
It is an "Exclusive Upgrade Notification" with my very own "Personal Web Key". Local dealer is apparently "the site for an exciting and unique Toyota Truck Upgrade Sale" which is only available to select clients. I was wondering if I should contact and tell them that a handful of know-it-alls in wrecked.boats claim that my Highlander isn't a truck. Anyway they are offering interest rates as low as 0%...cash incentives up to $4k and a special $2k trade-in voucher. Gotta make up my mind by Feb 26. |

They are not giving anything away for free. We still get letters on my wife’s 2009 Venza where customers want that model and will get a nice trade in value. |

If calling your mid-sized SUV a 'truck' makes you feel special, go for it. I'm sure that's what Dr. Phil would suggest. |

I got a 0% interest offer from Toyota when I got the Tacoma. No trade necessary, though I did have a trade. I think there was also a $1000 cash incentive, but I don't recall for sure. The dealership tried to sell me on a bunch of "add-on" accessories (such as undercoating" which I turned down. |

I am sure it is worth more in parts than as a car. They are pretty rare and I am sure kids wreck them a lot. Under the skin it is a garden variety Civic with a V-Tech engine. I still like buzzing around in it but if it blows up, I may just take the tags off and walk away ;-) There was a while when I thought about an electric conversion since they make a Civic kit. I just can't make the numbers work out for the little I drive, even with the 30% tax deal assuming that deal is still around. They do have a kit that makes it a drag racer tho ;-) I suppose if I am going very far I could drop my Briggs generator on a little trailer and make it a hybrid. |

My total cost of ownership on that car has been about $1000 a year for the last 16 years including everything from the belt change to tires and oil changes. How are you doing? I was referring to the dealer's customer for your car. |

I was referring to the dealer's customer for your car. The strange thing is people stop me and ask if it is for sale quite often. There is a "prelude cult following". I see one exactly like mine but well loved driving around here from time to time. For me it is just a piece of metal that gets me from here to there. I am not emotionally attached to cars and I certainly do not see them as a measure of my self worth. If I do decide to roll it over, I am sure someone will give me $1500 or more as is. |

You were well advised about the boat. |
