Although there was a press release on the new 08 H/L, It is rare that a car mfr. will advertise commercially on a new product when there are still H/L 07's to be only available. And most importantly NO pricing was was released for the 08's. AND when I went to two TOY dealers they said it was just a bit too early to take preorders for
specifically equipped H/L's. I could however always leave a deposit and get first dibs and pay MSRP on what does trickle in by JUNE for the Non'Hybrid H/L's. But that would be foolish from a buyers standpoint.
I noticed too that there is inventory of 07 H/L hybrids but not much of non-hybrids. For 07 they focused production on Hybrid H/L's.
It is extremely hard to get your hands on a Fully Equipped '07 non-hybrid H/L Limited. Just some Base models available. There basically are none to had at this point. California dealers got the most of these from what I have been told. 2006 was the last big push for the non-hybrid Limited's.
From what I noticed, Toyota had
low production/sales of non-hybrid H/L's for 07. They are gearing down and retooling the factory for sure.
The press release never mentioned a Touring Edition or package. Just Base, Sport, and Limited.
Toyota marketting at it's best.
