    8 months into lease, need to get out

    Re: WTF? I'll be the bad guy here.. Wow, thanks for your help jerkoff. I hope you get your ass banned for being a royal douchebag. Not that you deserve a friggin response, but it DID make sense economically when I was married and had an extra income, especially at the ridiculously low money...

    8 months into lease, need to get out

    I popped it up on cars.com today in the Indianapolis area for the payoff of $28,150. The KBB at private party sale price is $28,650. There are several other 05 4runners in the area but they are either quite a bit more expensive or have quite a few more miles on them. I've got my fingers...

    8 months into lease, need to get out

    You were pretty accurate with the figures. The sale price on the truck was $30,500. Payoff on the lease is $28,150. The dealer I purchased it from would only value it at around $24,000. Obviously, I'll either have to find a buyer myself or somehow keep the truck at least long enough to get...

    8 months into lease, need to get out

    I was hoping perhaps someone who works at a Toyota dealership could provide a little advice regarding getting out from under my lease. Last August I leased an '05 Sport Edition 4x4 V6 for 3 years, 15k miles at $430/month. The truck sat most of the winter due to very little snow, leaving it...

    Are rear seat latches supposed to lock?

    Well said. The latch would be pointless and is, therefore, an unnecessary added expense, since the two seat belts hold the occupant and the seat down the same as the latch would if it existed. If someone doesn't use both seat belts, then there's nothing Toyota can do about that...any more than...

    Are rear seat latches supposed to lock?

    Doesn't your child and booster seat both use the chest strap to restrain them to the back of the seat as well as the waist belt? If they're using both to hold them down and back, unless the chest strap fails somehow, I don't see how the seat cushion could fly forward. I suppose its possible...
