    Hey, I asked my dealer and they said they've put in orders for 4-5 Highlander Hybrids. They expect them to arrive in May or June! Can't wait to test drive them

    He thinks he'll get all 4-5 at that time?

    Last I heard the HH will be produced in VERY limited numbers. My dealer was told they'd get 1.7/month (shared allocation of 8/month with 5 other dealers).

    Also, I just don't think May is going to happen...I've heard that before, but the latested confident quote from a Toyota press type release was June.

    I didn't say that. I said he placed orders for 4-5. I didn't say he'll get them all in May or June.


    Yeah, I'm leaning towards June since I read that somewhere... probably one of the Toyota sites.

    Edit: I've just thought of something. Don't forget that the population is quite concentrated on certain areas in Canada so I'm thinking cities like Vancouver, Toronto and Montreal will get the larger allocations whereas in the US, there's pretty much demand no matter which state you're in so the given allotment will have to be split between more dealers
