The MSRP was $36K.
What do you guys recommend for me..I can go with Sienna or MDX...im so confused...
I am thinking of trading in the Rav and getting a Sienna AWD. I know I will take a hit as I just ate all the depreciation but think if I am going to do it, now is the time due to the 0% offer for Siennas.
So, I went through CR car buying service (powered by truecar) and got costs for the AWD LE of 2,600 off MSRP, which is about 30K. After looking at recent posts in this forum, I am seeing prices of about 33K for XLE AWD. When I ran the XLE through CR, it was coming back like 1,200 off MSRP, which is more like $35k. Is it worth it to go for the XLE and deal with the negotiation for days, and deal with the back and forth on the awful offer they will give me on the RAV, or stick with the LE and just use the no negotiation price?
Thanks in advance for any advice
As far as getting a good deal, you've got to do your homework and take your time. Send an email solicitation to 3-4 dealer's telling them exactly what you're looking for and that the successful bidder will be below invoice. Go see them one at a time starting with the worst price. Walk if they don't meet your target for the difference. Check several websites for the value of your trade because that is what will make the deal. You will find the dealers close on the new car but with wide latitude on your trade. You have all the time in the world. As long as you hold the money, you are in charge. And when someone gets to your target, pull the trigger. I love our new XLE FWD.
I would love to convince her to get the FWD with snow tires, but think that may be a tough sell. I will lay it on her, but most of the time, its not worth the argument.
Never had an issue (and, she doesn't know front- from rear-wheel drive).
She was adamant that her next car be an SUV (mostly for the up-high seating and cargo convenience). The first time we got snow? "How come my SUV slides so much coming to a stop? Don't I have four wheel drive? My car didn't do that."
It's all about the tires... AWD won't help you stop or turn any better. Granted, in heavy, heavy snow, you will have an advantage with traction from a dead stop. But, for all the safety reasons, you are better off with winter tires and 2WD..
My wife would still rather have an SUV, but even she figured it out (lol).

By the way, the Sienna LE V6 8 passengers is going at $28200 in Schaumburg, IL. and looks like the best I can do while taking advantage of 0% APR. What do the edmunds forum experts thinks?
A lot of my neighbors have MDXs, must be the official car of Potomac, MD. The one common theme is they ALL complain about the gas mileage and especially the price of premium gas.
Some friends actually asked if they could ride with us in my 8 passenger Sienna to Hershey, PA, and left their MDX at home.
AWD model's driveshaft goes right where the spare is on other models, so that's the only way they come.

Thanks in advance.
Please help, which one i need to choose...
A few questions:
1. Can anyone recommend a dealership in my area? My closest dealership is Laurel Toyota of Johnstown, PA, but I've heard mixed opinions on them, primarily with matching low prices.
2. Does Toyota offer low financing and/or rebates around the Fourth of July? If not around the 4th of July, when does Toyota's annual clearance event start?
3. Can you get factory OEM fog lights installed on the LE trim? They're not standard equipment on the LE trim nor are they offered as an option on Toyota's website.
Thanks...
Is that out-the-door price? Would you mind sharing the state/city/dealership name where you got the deal?
Thanks.
Yours looks better, can you tell me what dealship you are working with ?
Good thing about sienna xle and limited is that vehicle is mechanically prepped for tow receiver and harness to be added. Dealer uses an outside trailer shop to install these which is less expensive.
Don't believe the invoice sheet they show you is what they actually pay for their vehicles. It's called hold back, and even their invoice sheets show it, but it isn't accurate. EMAIL EMAIL EMAIL. FWD your best price and keep doing so and you will save thousands. the 100 mile drive was SOOOooo... worth the price.
"I would be able to sell it to you for 34450 plus tax and fee's which brings you to a total of 36989. "
It was exactly as promised. Locally, pretax was over $36K
Send emails to every dealership in 300 miles with you. They'll find YOUR vehicle, YOUR trim, YOUR color... and bring it to YOU! $34450 XLE with Entune/ DVD
Thanks
I think I may have over paid a little but after visiting 3 dealerships, I was ready to pull the trigger on a reasonable deal. I was able to get the $750 Edmunds rebate as well. If you have trouble getting this to pop up. Clear your internet cache and history. Also try another PC.
Thanks

Title Fee: $30

Discount was from dealer, so I was able to get 0% for 60 months from Toyota.
With Edmunds rebate &750, I think this is the best deal I could get at this time.
How did I do? Oh I used the 0% APR 60 months deal.
Now, shopping for an extended warranty.
XLE PREMIUM NAVIGATION PKG W/ENTUNE quote was $35985 mrsp $38570 let me know people deal or still need to work on price
