psk3, my focus was base price (i.e. dealer price, before fees, taxes, rebates, financing, etc). Did not consider Financing as I was taking $1000 rebate so I could do cash down or take available financing rate. At this time I took ~2.9% but I will refinance soon..

Hi Swat123,
 
I did not get Mud guards included in my vehicle, how about yours? Looks like this is additional purchase for third row RAV4s. I haven't purchased them yet.

I live in the DC area and are looking for the same which dealership did you use? How is the 3rd row seat? Is it easy to access by 7yr olds?
 
Is yours four wheel or front wheel drive?

My Rav4 is Front wheel drive and Dealer, Leesburg Toyota in Virginia.
 
Third row is just OK for a 7year old during short trips but definitely not comfortable for teens and beyond. Kid can sleep in entire third row during long journeys.

Dont bother with rebate -- its a big scam. They will notify you the rebate invalid and when you contact the call center to discuss it they blow you off. Toyota would be better served by having a different process for a rebate. They are just upsetting their customer base when the rebate is denied. This promotion is back firing.

#3777 of 3967 Edmunds Rebate Received $ 750 by practicalbuy

Hello friends..
 
We did receive our $750 Rebate.
 
We followed all the guidelines.. and applied for the $750 rebate BEFORE our Toyota RAV4 purchase.
 
This rebate is a consolation because our toyota purchase price (deal) was not as extraordinary as claimed by many of our friends over here... as at the time there were not enough clues on price negotiatons.
 
Check my very first message no. 3669 and 3670 , posted on April 30, 2012.
 
Hoping to hear similar good news from many of our other fellow Toyota RAV4 purchasers too.
