Toyota thinks they can milk a few extra dollars out of us and put it down to the limited market here and after all, it has more to do with the exchange rate between the au dollar and the yen that it does to the greenback. You also have to remember that car dealers don't generally put prices down if the exchange rate changes over night, more money in their pockets and all that, by the same token they generally don't raise the prices if it falls the other way. Generally they set a middle ground price and wear any short term losses and might make a mid year adjustment to the price if it falls to far one way. They also price the cars at what the market will bear. and last time I checked(this morning) the aussie dollar was 92 cents to the US dollar and still climbing. so how is the greenback comparing internationally at the moment :-) -- [This comment is no longer available due to a copyright claim by Church of Scientology International] "I like your Christ.
