Trading in my dream car for a Toyota hybrid for longevity, lower maintenance costs, and lower insurance costs.

Putting together the final paperwork when the warranty packages are introduced.

I decline all but the manager insists on one of them alone specifically covering electronics (and everything else for 10 years). He says that the newer Toyota’s electronics are expensive to replace and commonly malfunction or break. I figured this is just pushing warranty, but he got to me mentally and broke my confidence in the brand.

Was this guy just trying to get me to spend more money, or is there truth in his tale?

    I got the same spiel when negotiating a car for my mom. I pretended to be super concerned about it and turned to my mom and said, “I’m not sure this is the right car for you if it’s so unreliable.”

    I’ve ever seen anyone backpedal so fast.
