Wendy, I'm curious to know where you are in the Midwest. Here, in Ohio, you cannot get an XLE with cloth interior unless it's through a special fleet order.

Etoileb, heywood1, rorr, thank you, thank you, thank you! People here are so nice and kind. You've made it so easy for me to decide on the trimline. I wish I'd asked earlier.

cccompson,
 
I'm in Kansas. So far I haven't seen XLE with cloth interior on the lot. But the dealer said that they could order anything for me if I wanted an XLE with cloth. I'm not in a hurry so that's not a problem for me.

LOL, well, dealers was say anything, Wendy. Whether it is accurate or not is sometimes another story.
 
What you might want to do is go to Toyota's site and try to build the vehicle you want. At a particular stage, you will be asked which options you want. Those that are available in your area will appear on the screen. Not all options are available in all areas of the country.
 
Doing this should tell you definitively whether you can get a cloth XLE locally. Good luck - I hope you can get it. Unfortunately, I cannot here in Ohio.

Yes, Kentuck100, it is the real deal. bill37, if you go to the top of this forum and type in "Go to Msg # 3604," it will give you the specifics of two dealers with good prices and how to contact them. If you go to "Search" and type in my name weedshasta, it will give you pages of discussion on the extended warranty.

lease or purchase by allison5

I am getting closer to making my decision on the 05 Sienna. I have been going crazy deciding on whether we trade in our yukon (less than a year old and I just do not like it, too big, gas guzzler etc). Problem is we will lose out and be in a negative situation if we sell now. The other option is letting my husband drive it and he trade in his Toyota Tundra truck (lease is almost up) and then lease a Sienna. Because we put a decent amount of money down on the yukon (terrible decision) we don't have as much to put down on a Sienna so that is why we are thinking of leasing again. Isn't it true that payments are less with leasing than purchasing. I definatly drive more than 12,000 miles a year but probably not more than 15,000 miles. I have 3 kids and it seems like I am in the car more than my house. I have heard so many people against leasing that I am just wanting a few more opinions. Thanks in advance.

Why would you live with a vehicle you hate? Unless you husband doesn't mind the Yukon as much as you, I'd dump it. It'll never be worth more than it is now.
 
Trade it for the Sienna, and rollover the amount you're 'upsidedown' into a purchase deal for 60 or even 72 months, if you can. (Make sure you get some gap insurance from your auto carrier). And keep this van until it dies.
 
And when the lease is up on your Tundra, you'll probably receive an offer to extend the lease. I'd take the offer or exercise the purchase option. Tundras hold their value the best of any truck.

Yes if it were just up to me I would love to get rid of it but my husband likes it tons more than I do. We have had this Yukon listed for sale at several prices and the most we could get is around $29,000 and our pay off is 36,000. My husband hates the idea of having to carry the amount off to another car,plus he actually likes the yukon. SO I guess we will just lease the Sienna.
