Both can be true at once. Dealer can tell you you’re 32nd in line and still get a van for the person 47th in line sooner just bc they happen to have asked for a trim and options combination that the factory was able to build and deliver faster than the trim and options combo you asked forI see a lot of people knowing exactly where they stand in terms of how many people are ahead of them.. so am confused..

People buying a brand new Sienna may be in a financial position to purchase these large items. Interest rates are still relatively low. A lot of these buyers are not selling in 2-4 years rather maybe 10-15 years and at that point it does not really matter if they bought it at $2,000-$5,000 more than listed MSRP.Yes a lot of people are going to be upside down when this crazy market stabilizes.
That is exactly what is happening. The car market is as capitalist as it gets... they will ask for every penny they can get, so all these higher-than-new used car prices are proof that people are for whatever reason willing to pay.Interesting fact...
I'm now getting MANY ads showing me "Used" Sienna's for sale in my area (Houston, TX).
These "Used" Sienna's are 2022 with 3k or less miles being listed at 50-56k for 33-39k window sticker prices.
I'm not sure and have no idea, but I feel there are people with a lot more money than me that are going to dealerships and offering like 5k over sticker price to get shoved to the front of the line and they immediately sell them for 10-20k more simply due to scarcity.
Am I being paranoid conspiracy theory guy? I've been waiting 7 months now and am starting to get dejected that I'm in a no win situation.
That's correct. Once it gets built the temporary VIN goes away and the vehicle gets assigned a permanent VIN, which you can get from your dealer. Your sales person should be able to supply you with that along with the expected timeline for delivery to the lot.They even gave me a temporary Vin number. 5TDKSKFC7NS25B087. I keep checking to see if that temporary VIN number is changed to a permanent one, but it hasn't happened yet, so I guess it has not yet been built. Is that true?
Just their dealershipLongo said there are more than 1000 people in waiting list, but i am not clear if 1000 for the whole US or just their dealer, it is pretty crazy if 1000 people waiting for Longo alone LOL

Might be regional in US??A dealer is now telling me that XLE only comes in 8 passenger forms now. Is this BS or actually true and a recent change Toyota did?
