Toyota Extended Warranties 1/2 price

[lowpro]

Quote from earlrod : If I bought an extended warranty from the dealer yesterday which was too expensive, can I cancel it anytime? The finance manager said it is prorated. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Was it for a new car? IIRC, you should a certain amount of days in order to cancel your plan. Maybe even 30 days. The only thing is that if you plan on buying the extended warranty somewhere else then it will have to come out of your pocket and can not be rolled into your car loan, like it was at the dealership. See if they will price match it.

There was definitely a range of years there that were very bad, but right now I would not say reliability is bad. It really depends on what model you buy.

In the last 10 years I've owned a 80's corvette and a 90's mustang gt, neither of which needed anything from me but basic maintenance.

Certainly a camry is a better car than a malibu, but for that kind of money it had sure as heck better be. Once you go upmarket a bit there are respectable cars to choose from from almost any maker.

Quote from Suntot : I agree that there have been some good american cars, but like you said that was in the 20's-60's We are in 2009 and right NOW their reliability sucks. Toyota and Honda have been producing good cars for the last 20 years, that's why people know that reliability = Toyota and Honda.

I bought a warranty for my Tacoma through Troy almost a year ago. He is very professional and willing to help. I had bought the truck used and wanted the 7yr/100,000 just in case.

New Sienna CE van. 7/100,000 miles for $1700 plus $500 for 4 yrs/55,000 miles of oil change, $2200 for both. He offered me $2200 for warranty then included the oil change. My wife said it was for the peace of mind but now I think it was a ripoff. I should cancel this and look for OP's deals.

I guess we hate those american cars made in the last 30 years because most of us inherited those cars when we were in high school and they sucked. I guess they took the consumer for granted and now they're paying the consequences of forgetting the basic rules of capitalism. Is the same Boeing is doing now, they want to sell the Air Force (or the american people) overprice piece of junks just because they're "American". Is just basic economics, you won't buy a dell for the price of a Mac or Lenovo laptop. As long as the automaker is making cars here and buying supplies from US suppliers, I don't don't see where your American pride is hurt. You should take offense on those business models where you get the same over priced crap with different logo or skin. The day Toyota & Honda stop making reliable cars, they will go belly up too.


P.S. Any airplane "american" or "european" has about 80% of the parts are not made in the country the planes are assemble. Better to have planes build with European parts than Chinese made parts that will kill many servicemen/women in the long run.

Just got a quote for my 07 Lexus IS350 from Troy at Toyota of Greenfield, 12 Olive Street,

Quote from me2you : Just curious, what part was I misinformed on? And some people are real douche nozzles. Did you know that toyota is based in japan? how much of their profits do you think goes back to japan, 100%? How much tax credits did the American tax payers give to toyota to build that plant in ky? Hey if I want my money to stay in America, why do you care???

-----------------------

Toyota is a publicly traded company with an investment of about $12 billion in the United States.

Unlike Ford/GM, Toyota makes profits. Of those profit, about 15% stays in the US because of the shareholders being US Citizens/Residents. Unlike the American shareholders of Ford/GM, who bring in no profits, the American people holding shares of Toyota bring in money and pay taxes on it.

You want your money to stay in America so you bought a ford? Here is the truth for you, Ford and GM are not making any money... and Toyota and its shareholders, even though is taking profits to Japan, is still giving more money to the US treasury in the form of taxes/Employment than GM/Ford?Chrysler who are just asking for more and more money.

I am a proud American and a Proud Owner of an American built Toyota Camry built by hardworking Non-Unionized American Workers in Georgetown, KY.

You're forgetting one fairly major point. Where do the parts come from?

Toyota and Honda source virtually all of their parts from asian manufacturers. We might assemble it here, but that's a fairly small piece of the pie.

GM and Chrysler may be hemorrhaging money, but Delphi, Champion, Faurecia, Delco Remy, Mallory, etc. still employ tons of people.

These people pay taxes, no?

Sigh. As does Toyota. This protectionist nonsense will set the world back by a couple of decades. It sucks that blue collar families are losing their jobs, but they need to get re-trained in a field that matters for the current century. The American unions killed the domestic auto market. Let's not make that mistake again.

FWIW, Toyota warranties through Troy @ Greenfield hav been recommended by Priuschat forum users for years.
