My Take: A $1000 rebate is still available for the Toyota Highlander this month. The good news is that, the MF dropped a bit, but the residual also dropped. In the end the payments should be pretty close to last months. Be sure to secure a low sale price and tack on the $1000 rebate on top of that. Sales are slow right now, dealerships are like ghostowns. If you have excellect credit, this is the time to get into a new car. NOTE: I applied a $1000 rebate to the invoice and MSRP when calculating payments. You should at the most pay $1000 under MSRP. Personally, I think you should be paying $1000 under invoice.
