:lol: My Tideland Pearl #9 showed up this afternoon. Almost 3 months from the day I ordered it. Did not pay even a penny over MSRP from Jim Coleman Toyota in Bethesda, MD. This is my second vehicle from them and they have been first rate both times. No funny business and they don't waste your time. Their service department is also excellent. Will have its new tires Wed. (Michelin Hydroedge) will report on how they ride. The dealer will put them on for me so I don't risk having a third party do any damage with the car having 2 miles on it. Car rides great and seems to be getting expected fuel economy.

I bought the undercoating and platinum warranty (malpractice insurance). Hope the undercoating wasn't a mistake, but they guarantee no rust for the life of the car or dealer, whichever comes first. With all the salt used here in Northern Virginia figured it was not a bad bet. Couldn't decide on the lojack. Anyone know if this car is a high theft item?

No, it's not a high theft item.

But I got the Lojack, because I'd have a chance of helping catch somebody who might be successful. And I'd have a better chance of helping them catch a carjacker, should such a thing occur.

Florida has mandatory 10-20-Life penalties for gun crimes. Putting a gun criminal behind bars for at least 10 years makes me feel all warm inside.

Unless you are car-jacked or leave the key fob in the car, the only way to steal this car is by picking up the front end with a tow truck or dragging it onto a flatbed. I really don't think you have anything to worry about.

Congradulations on getting your new car so quickly. I hope you enjoy it as much as I know I will enjoy mine.
