That's why I built my own total cost of ownership calculator. Too many assumptions in any generic comparison.

Just a few months ago, the RAV4 Prime qualified for the $7,500 federal tax credit, so it was a no-brainer then, but that's also why they were selling so far above MSRP. It was a no-brainer and everyone wanted the few that were manufactured.

More than anything, I want to know why Toyota didn't build that car a decade ago and flood the market, selling as many as they could manufacture.
