    Looks like some in Chicago. They have sit-down eats for while it charges?

    Wonder how much the battery will be charging on its own for the freeway miles ...

    Sometimes the free chargers are located at a mall or near some sort of fast food...

    Charging during driving does work, but it's not as efficient.

    Would you mind sharing how much it cost out the door? Just curious as I'm in eastern NY and debating trading in my 2017 Premium (bought in 2018) on a 2020 Limited but worried that I'll get killed in the trade in. There is also apparently Zero percent financing through the end of March though, so I'm wondering if it would be worth it and what they are going for in upstate NY currently.

    The Toyota website has this car with the all weather floor liner package and wheel locks at $34929. (Includes Toyota's delivery and handling fee.)

    I called around on similar cars (wasn't worried about color much), no one was going to take a lot off-of that. Until I take possession, I'm a bit reticent to post the exact number. I'll PM you with that.

    I am in NE, and I just traded in 2017 PRIME Premium with 40K miles for 2020 PRIME LE. The KBB cash offer online was $18100, but I did not get that amount at a dealer. They gave me $16900. Still, with a discount and rebates, my final cost will be ~$1000 after next year's tax credit. It is almost impossible to sell used PRIME on your own in NE (or NY/NJ) due to a heavy discount on a new PRIME. KBB does not take into account the rebates and incentives. I think $1K~$2K below the KBB book value is the norm unless you can take your car to the South and sell there.
