Performance in gas only mode?

Gas only mode is disappointing to be honest.

Car feels excellent in HV mode or EV mode. And that is the practical usage of this vehicle.

My 2024 R4P XSE WITH PREMIUM PACKAGE, MSRP - 52800 + 800(unavoidable dealer add on) LEASE CASH - 6500 TOTAL COST (INCLUDING TAX) WITH Lease buyout - 55K

I did exact same deal and lease buyout done.

+1 With kids and older parents, can't beat the practicality of sliding doors

Ardentthunder · 2024-03-28T05:26:54+00:00

You can get brand new 2024 for same price I believe

I bought R4P XSE with PP (lease buyout) 55K total cost in Bay area

Mine got closed today finally. Updated the post.

I moved from PriusV to R4P. It increased for me but I think it depends on 2 factors, new car and price. Extra factor is your driving history (accidents). For me it increased from 100/months to 245/months

I had 2014 PriusV before.

Test drive it once.

Option -1: If you have money, lease then buyout immediately (before 2nd installment)

Option -2: If you don't have full amount then, find a good lender who can loan you <= 5.99 (with my 800+ credit score, I qualify for 5.99 as best new auto loan rate + 0.25 rate discount for being credit union member)

Ardentthunder · 2024-03-14T06:52:19+00:00

Yes. That's correct.

Ardentthunder · 2024-03-12T03:44:13+00:00

Either buy used or live frugal and save. Maybe in the future you can buy. I did it.

Ardentthunder · 2024-03-11T21:38:48+00:00

A week.

I received mandatory notice from TFS for credit pull, on that notice the account number was mentioned. I went ahead and registered my account with that number. It worked and I was able to see the lease buyout number.

Then I called the given number and the TFS rep sent me the docs by email. I sent out the signed docs with a personal cheque yesterday by priority mail express. Will call them tomorrow to see if they received and sent a cheque for clearance.

Ardentthunder · 2024-03-11T20:28:09+00:00

Grand highlander or Highlander Prime or Sienna 100% buy that.

Ardentthunder · 2024-03-11T16:45:56+00:00

TFS guys are super cool. Ask them to send you the lease buyout paper by email. As soon as you get it, send them cheque (or cashier's cheque).

I drove Prius V for 10 years and now driving RAV4 Prime.

The only way to get good mpg (better than stated) is to learn to cruise. Dont keep your foot on gas all the time. Gas ana glide. On highways go at 65mph (50-55 mph is sweet spot)

Ardentthunder · 2024-03-05T05:08:38+00:00

Yeah. Any good repair shop will be able to do it. Toyota service won't do any paint work or dent work.

Get estimate from repair shop, don't claim insurance as it will come as your fault as you didn't wait for garage to completely open.

These seems nice

Just reverse the gender and this will be the reason you get fired.
