It's Five Towns Toyota. More info are listed on bluerav's first email.
 
My purchasing story, however, is a continuing saga...(I first posted my questions here linky , but I feel that it is relevant to repeat it here.)
 
At this point, I am doubting myself on my original recommendation!!
 
Anyway...
 
A day before the pickup, Tuesday, my salesperson told me that the dealership accidentally sold my car due to a computer error. Suspicious!
 
My salesperson apologized and told me that the exact car would be available for pick-up last Friday. Unfortunately, on the day of the pickup, I was told that the car I was getting had 180 miles on it, but they would take off $180. A little digging I found out that they got the car through a dealer trade. Their story was that they didn't have their to be traded car ready and as a result, my "supposedly" new car was driven back to its original dealer. Thus, the car was now blessed with 180 miles.
 
Of course, I rejected that car and now my dealer is telling me that they will get a new shipment of cars next week and I will finally get my car.
 
Luckily, I have a deposit receipt with the VIN of the car that I was supposely be driving now.
 
The saga continues...

Chicago Area - Third Row Seats by mcb74
May 16, 2006 (7:09 am)

I am looking for a Rav-4 with the third-row seat. I was told by a dealer last weekend that "they're not making them yet..." which I believe isn't the case. But it's possible that they are not shipping them to the Chicago area yet with 3rd row seats. Does anyone know? Also, I'm assuming that the third-row seat is an option on all models (base, sport, and limited). Is that true? Thanks.

The 3rd row seat DOES exist. I own a LTD V6 4x4 w/ 3rd row. 3rd row is only available on Base & LTD. Took me 2 months of intense searching to find mine. I live in NY state and had to drive 4 1/2 hours to MD to get mine. Good luck.

How much do you pay for the OTD (out of the door: including everything) price?
 
Is $21,200 OTD are reasonable price? including tax, title, license, doc, etc.
 
Thanks sayers1!

spacewagon- I would be shocked at that price.
I got:
V6 4x4 LTD, 3rd row seat
moonroof
tow prep
floor mats
side & curtain airbags
JBL
running boards
Mudguards
 
$28,443 before tax, title, etc.
 
If you can get the same for $21,200; you would be crazy not to.

dealer trade question by llkc04
May 17, 2006 (11:30 am)

I am getting ready to sign on the dotted line for a V6 LTD with moonroof, side air bags, and tow prep package for 25,000.00 . Its in Chicago the dealership getting it for us is in tn. For that price they will not trailer it in but will drive it in. My husband doesn't like the idea of the miles someone else is putting on it, but we have had such a hard time finding one in the color we want(light green) and with a tow prep package (not avaliable in TN) that I feel that it isn't that bad. I would like someone elses opinion on this in case I'm making a mistake. I've never bought a new car before. Thanks in advanace.

How far a drive is it? I would consider going and getting it myself and driving it back home, and maybe even get a better deal. Negotiate with the dealer that has the car you want.

Good Price on 2006 RAV4 2WD base in Texas? by saabski
May 17, 2006 (6:57 pm)

Hello all,
 
I am getting ready to go in and negotiate a final price on 2006 RAV4 base 4cylinder 2WD with following options:
 
-Classic Silver metallic
-Roof Rails
-Side and curtain airbags
-Daytime Running Lights
-Security system Upgrade
-Cargo cover with cargo nets
-Extra Mile Package A :
 Pinstripes, floormats, extended tire warranty (up to
 6yr/75K miles), Fabric protectant sealant, chrome exhaust
 tip, Roadside Assistance (3yr/36K miles), first aid kit,
 rear bumper guard
 
MSRP is around $23,175 (including destination)
 
Dealership's first offer is $21,995, which I think is pretty high. Honda dealership down the street is selling a 2wd Honda Pilot LX for $22K ($6K off the MSRP)! I personally think that they can do better by at least another $1000 from the original offer. Am I crazy or does that sound about right...dealership claims that $21995 is invoice plus $200 dealer profit. Any advices would be appreciated. Maybe I should wait a few months before RAV 4 supply gets more plentiful.
 
Thanks

Edmund's invoice shows $20,388 for that car - excluding security system upgrade, pinstripes, extended tire warranty , fabric protectant sealant, chrome exhaust
 tip, roadside Assistance, first aid kit or rear bumper guard in that price. Doesn't seem that all of that would cost them close to $1500. I guess it just depends how much you want the RAV. Remember though that the Pilot gets a lot less MPG.
