I have been quoted prices for HL 4CYL w/ 3-row seat in the Dallas (Denton) area. When trying to match to the Edmunds invoice price, I can't find all the options to figure the invoice price. I have been quoted prices of vehicles with the Extra Mile Option Package A/B. I don't find this listed as one of the options. Is this package a rip off? Also what about the Glass Etch, Extra Mile Aluminum Wheel Upgrade? Can anyone give me some gas mileages for the HL 4CYL...looking at buying new, 2005? Is the EPA estimate for city of 22 and hwy of 27 close? Thanks |

Looking to buy 4x2 v6 ltd with 3rd row seat. Extras include value package, leather package, side curtain airbags, and wind deflector. Would appreciate any dealers that you worked with and would do so again as well as any pricing for similar HLs in DC/Baltimore area. Thanks!

Lots of on-line pricing information in Baltimore/DC area: Fitzmall, Carmax & Darcars. We bought from a dealer closer to us (Bill Kidd's in Timonium) as that is where we will have the car serviced, and had a good experience. They matched the on-line price for the comparably equiped car without any problems. Good luck. Larry

Replying to: allmil (Jun 26, 2005 9:52 pm) My take is these packages are bundling a large number of add-ons together so dealers can, once again, increase their bottom lines. If it were me I wouldn't take either package because most of the individual options I don't really want, but there are exceptions: Security System Upgrade - not sure what this is either -- I've never had my car broken into so its of little value to me Fabric Guard - never had it on any of my previous cars and the fabric and I fared just fine Carpet Mat Set (5 Pc) - now this is an option I would recommend - carpeted floor mats add a very nice touch in enhancing the interior, and the Toyota factory mats are very nice looking IMO Mud Guards (Color Keyed) - also an option I would recommend -- really sets-off the exterior with some sleek character Carpet Floor Mats - sounds the same as the Carpet Mat Set (5 Pc) option Rear Cargo Mat - this also should be included in the Carpet Mat Set (5 Pc) option - a recommended option as it adds a touch of class and protects the fabric in the cargo area Roadside Assistance (3 Yrs/36,000 Miles) - not sure how much this costs but for the few times I've been towed I suspect I've come out ahead without it -- ask yourself if it's something you were planning on purchasing anyway to see if it is of value to you; it does offer peace of mind Extra Mile Extended Life Tires - not sure if the extra miles you'll get out of the tires justifies the cost; possibly a rip-off Extra Mile Aluminum Wheel Upgrade (5) - have no idea what the heck this is; probably a rip-off Wheel Locks - never had my wheels ripped-off, so is of little value to me (if somebody is going to rip-off some wheels, chances are it won't be from a highlander!) Road Hazard Tire Warranty - not sure what this is either; possibly a rip-off However some people may value most of these items and it might be worth it for them; I personally would just purchase the specific options I wanted individually and pocket the difference!! Good luck!!!! |
