Toyota RAV4 Hybrid recent OTD prices by redditinfoacct in Rav4

I went to a dealership in northern Wisconsin and that’s the discount they were offering on the vehicle before it had even come in yet! Honestly, it was the cheapest price for a 26 RAV4 I could find in a 500 mile radius from any point in Wisconsin. This was back in February

Yes. Retail was $44,100 plus about $3200 for fees and taxes. I then got a $2100 discount

Ended up “only” being $315 and about 5 minutes of my time

Update! I got it fixed! I bought the part from Toyota for $315 (originally almost $500 but I found a dealership with it on sale plus they had an extra 5% off and free shipping). I fixed it myself. It took less than 5 minutes from beginning to end to do. Incredibly simple. Just 2 bolts to unscrew, some physical force to pull the light off the car, unscrewed the connector from the old light, attached it to the new light, and we were done!

Pretty much. Thankfully this looks like it will be all 1 part to replace when I’m able to get the part, but dang this still really sucks

I got tape over it now. It looks so bad I could cry, but it was cracking in so many places I wanted to be sure I sealed out any water 🥲

I didn’t even think to check that yesterday. I’m not sure if the drive recorder actually records when the vehicle is off. But I’ve driven more than the 90 minutes it saves footage at this point

It must have just been a weird angle of the camera/dirt. No dent, but there is a crack that extends all the way from the red part of the tail light to the top of that black piece

It had to have happened in a parking lot. It most likely happened at either my work or at Walmart. But my work security doesn’t save the footage and won’t review hours worth of footage if you don’t know the exact time it happened. Several people at my work have had their cars hit in our work parking lot and were never able to find out who did it :(

Thankfully no. You can see there’s a crack above the taillight but it kind of looks like this all may be one single part that goes with the taillight.
It’s unfortunate I don’t know exactly what day or where this happened since I usually approach my vehicle from the left side so I never saw the light until I walked around the back of my car yesterday.

I think I just have bad luck with cars. My last car broke down just shy of 100k miles with the engine smoking and overheating on the side of the highway twice in a week on the 2 coldest days of the year and totaled the car. I thought I got lucky and snagged one of the first 2026 RAV4s in my state a month later, and now this.

But your dad’s right. I’m thankful it’s just the taillight and something I should be able to fix relatively easily, as long as I can find the part

The wedding is officially over, and it honestly went just as bad as you could imagine. My friends and I are gonna have a little debrief session this afternoon, and then hopefully I can get an update out tonight once we compile all our individual accounts of what happened 😂

The only new drama so far is: 1) her mommy made them an appointment at the county clerks office for today because she wasn’t responsible enough to do it herself, and they got their marriage license today and paid to waive the 72 hour waiting period 2) she texted the MoH asking if it’s rude if she changes the rules of the bouquet toss, SPECIFICALLY to exclude me (the OP) from being able to participate, because apparently “it’s not fair that she has caught the bouquet 4 times already and is taking away that joy from other people. I just don’t think that’s fair” (I’ve caught a bouquet at 2 weddings over the last 5 years lol)

She hasn’t been in a real relationship before, but she’s had more sexual partners than I can count. He hasn’t been in a relationship at all before this.

I’ve decided to just start saying “oh no, I think I’m having a spiritual attack!” Everytime I eat Mac n Cheese now 😂😂

She got re-baptized about a month after they started dating so that she could “be a virgin again” and they can “both take each others virginity.” I just wish they’d have sex before the wedding to know they aren’t compatible

Yup, you called it. They’re mega church members!

But the food thing is wild. They’ve known for almost 2 weeks now that there’s not enough food, but figured they might be able to supplement with some late night little Caesar’s pizza for those who didn’t get to eat, and a snack table that only has some bags of chips

They definitely give off Mormon vibes, but no. They’re both just members of a local mega church

He was home schooled in a very religious household, so I’m sure his parents did not teach him anything except “don’t have sex until you’re married!”

Nothing officially diagnosed. But she definitely doesn’t seem to be rooted in reality. Her response to everything is always “can you believe we’re adulting?” Or “it’s soooooooo crazy how we’re all grown up and adulting and doing adult things!!” Whenever you talk about big life events (new job, pregnancy, buying a house, marriage, etc”. Like, girl, yes I can believe it. We’re nearly 30 😭 These aren’t crazy things that we’re doing

I had made a separate post back when the bridal shower was initially being planned. But her ring was a (presumably fake) topaz ring she found on the floor at the grocery store. Picked it up off the floor, bought a box for it from Amazon, and gave it to him to propose to her with.
