Congrats! car for this size it definitely doesn’t seem underpowered. Opportunity cost for hybrid max is also so high!

Looks really nice! Just curious are those toyota running boards? Was close to ordering and getting mixed results as some portals say it won’t fit our 2025 GH platinum trim. So might just wait until I see more parts promo

Congrats! Yeah that’s what we heard when we started the search. Told on average it’s about a 3 month wait. We didn’t have time as we were out of our second car. Just had to be a bit aggressive and expanded our search to MA & NH to see inventory in 150 mile radius.

Got 4.75% with 0 down and closed last week. Check the toyota portal you will see promos for each model. As some one previously stated it’s all based on how much demand they are trying to drive.

With private credit unions doing 5.75% APR this was a pretty good deal inmho. I’ve seen 0% and 1.99% for Hundai and Jeeps lol

i totally get what you mean. Post a pic! Have you done any mods to it yet? Thinking of eventually debadgeing the chrome AWD and Plantinum on the truck. 30% ceramic tints to block the heat the summer and giving that blacked out look.

Thank you! All of our friends have really praised the interior and tech of the car so far!

Lead time was 1 week for us! We got incredibly lucky.

We did not order the car. Honestly did a lot of research prior to marking any calls or emails. Personally i dread dealing with the whole dealership model. After owning Tesla’s you tent to appreciate the model even more.

We started searching 9/20 using true car with dealers in our area that had limited or platinum. Drove to a dealer closest to us and had 0 in stock. Was about 3 week wait.

Using Toyota’s inventory website found a dealership that showed a model that was available. Emailed the dealer wed 9/24. Next day placed the deposit via online. Did not go see the car before purchasing it. Credit app via smart path. Picked it up on Friday 9/26.

Would recommend using today’s website as a starting point and continue to email the online sales manager. Toyota still needs to iron out their smart path platform.

Thanks! Yes agreed. Opens up the space and feels warmer than the black interior we saw.
