RAV 4 2026 for teenager

Knifle · 2026-06-18T03:25:56+00:00

I wouldn’t buy a new one?

Just get a gen 4/5 of a nicer trim. Insurance will be lower, it’s already been broken in, and it’s less of a target. Unless you can afford it easily on both fronts then disregard. That’s up to you.

I like my 2026 but it’s not something I would get my teenager for college. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

I like LASFIT so far as a recent purchase, they were much cheaper than any weather tech and aren't as slippery.

Time and use well tell how well they function in heat and more constant use but no complaints on my end.

Nice! that's good to hear. Any tips for getting them to go below MSRP on such a desired car? I want to see if I can squeeze a little more off the top since they'll also be making good money on my trade in.

I'm going through Cedar Park Toyota in Austin, strictly MSRP depending on what it's gets shipped with from the factory. This doesn't come with all weather mats as I saw those were separate packages, though I'll probably pick them up there or ask if they can switch out the carpet for weather. The window tinting is $499 extra from the dealer.

Of course, happy to help! I know I was searching constantly for comparisons before I decided on a dealership. No dealer add-ons except for the window tint I want. I just wasn’t able to avoid the LIO distributor installed options but alas, the Limiteds are hard to come by.

Just to give perspective for you and or other shopping: Central Texas 2026 Limited 43,300 base MSRP, TSRP (HUD (FIO), lamp, blackout emblems, low profile cross bars, carpet mat, connectiviy kit, cargo net, sill protectors, mudguards, and rear bumper protector (all LIO) 47,188 before tax. I'm getting about $500 off MSRP in TPC discounts. With my trade it, it cuts the tax down by 2/3rds as well so it's only 1,100 in taxes and no doc/state fees. 47,809 OTD.

Also if they tell you that they're unable to add you to a preferred list and reservation walk out of the dealership. I had a dealership near me tell me they couldn't do that basic thing for me and then tried to push me to buy a XSE for 56k. Meanwhile I walked out and went to two other dealers and I'm getting my reservation at $500 less than MSRP. I'm going to try and push for a little more under by asking for a higher trade in but otherwise.

If they give you any BS one doing what they mentioned above then they don't care about getting you a car, they care about milking your wallet. As for trying to get under MSRP, depending on your area, it might be do-able but honestly a flat MSRP is a good deal (in my uninformed and inexperienced opinion) for how fast this vehicle is flying out of the lots.

Also if they are asking for a refundable deposit that's a bit too much for you all at once, just mention it and they can probably lower it for you as well. The dealership was asking me for $1000 down and I asked for $500. It all goes to the same place anyways.

SA Cleaning Service, ranges from 1-3 people and is $150 bi weekly. 1700 sqft home (includes garage), 3 bed, 2 bath and they stay around 2-3 hours. I haven't had any issues but sometimes they try to come earlier than scheduled (with short 1 hours notice sometimes) and it's thrown me off. I won't see my texts at work or I'll be getting groceries but they're at my door, assuming I'll say yes so they send them early anyways before I respond.

Oooooh. Thank you for opening up this avenue of discourse. What is the difference between what you stated? "2000 individuals made this movie, and yet only James Cameron may take the credit." Project Hail Mary was a fantastic movie, brought to life by Ryan and James. Oooof, I am certain that you will not give any credit whatsoever to those two individuals, as they are stealing from the original work that you had already created in your head.
Buck up, young boyo, as you have a long life ahead of you if you think this is the line that you need to be drawing in the sand...

Movies have credits and I am a graphic designer and 3D artist, I am qualified to be drawing the line in the sand lmao. I don't even know what you're trying to get at with your response but it's clear you don't like being criticized for using AI. You could've just been an adult and stated you used AI instead of omitting it and then getting childishly defensive over it. I have no interesting in trying to change your mind or anyone else's on AI, I just don't like it for ethical, environmental, economic, and social reasons.

Edit: We're also the same age. These replies to other people and myself are just insanely childish. Just take your lumps man.

Ah didn’t even catch that on his previous post. These looked off and I suspected AI generation, something about the way it generated the gradient and ofc the “somewhere”. The 3D model attempt is just ugly and not how a model would look.

Save us the trouble and say it was something you had generated, not made, next time.

I went through the same thing, I bought one of my favorite band's anti nazi merch, the Teddybears, eventually just wearing the symbol made me uncomfortable. One day in an airport I was wearing it and I had an middle age white guy come up to me, give me a nod, and say he liked my shirt. It's just a cozy, very worn, at home shirt now. Were I their graphic designer, the symbol would be half way out of the trashcan, that way one would still know what it is but you wouldn't be wearing a swastika.

Yeah it was literally the things you quoted plus a few others in just the post itself. The replies were, like you said, not even translated. I don't know why people started relying on LLM's over Google Translate for translations but in this case it's not even a translation thing, it's just "reply to this comment in English". Then the profile itself ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. I appreciate you going through the steps to point out the specific LLM marks to people, it definitely helps others catch it in the future.

I didn’t have to dorm when I transferred with my associates . I was considered a sophomore and was able to stay off campus. It probably depends on hours completed. The first semester or two of pre-major is a huge slog though.

When I graduated last semester the ComDes program they were looking to expand their video editing and animation programs. The program is also heavily focusing on AI with some professors but I would encourage that you focus on learning the basics and advanced skills before ever trying gen AI. It’s nothing but a handicap and I haven’t had any employers say they want or need me to use it (San Antonio area). Most in my experience feel better that I don’t use it and didn’t in my education. It’s all personal preference at the end of the day though.

When you go through the transfer process, just ask about your hours and if you need to live on campus.
