    did a little fishing today

    Final tally for the day was probably 10-12 reds and 1 trout.

    Took pictures of probably half the fish.

    Nice fish! Reds avoid me like the plague. I catch everything else but them and I've been going to titusville for a few years now and maybe caught 4..

    Just do a v8 taco swap.

    When I owned my 4Runner, I hated not having a bed. The only thing I miss is the gas mileage. I have no idea why the 4Runner with the same 4.0 gets such better mileage than a Taco.

    So I bought a Certified Pre-Owned 2012 Highlander here in Florida, and found out today, more than a month later, that the "extended warranty" I bought is Fidelity backed insurance, a separate and distinct program from the Toyota extended warranty.

    When I asked the selling dealer about this, I got a line about how Southeastern Toyota only offers the fidelity insurance. When I called and asked my local dealer, they said that they offered both insurance plans.

    So, can anyone shed some light on these two different dealer stories? Is it true about southeastern Toyota? Should I cancel my fidelity plan and go Toyota? Anyone have experience with fidelity? Thanks in advance!

    I was told by my dealer that I couldn't get the Toyota warranty due to being in Florida. I cancelled the third party warranty I originally bought. I have inquired to other dealerships about the Toyota extended warranty and none of them have told me anything about not being able to buy it in Florida.

    My advice is cancel and get a Toyota plan. In Florida you have 60 days to cancel for full refund. I don't trust 3rd party warranties.

    I was able to. I initially, like you, bought the Fidelity/SE Toyota warranty. That is all that the SE Toyota dealerships are able to sell. I found this site and did some searching and found a couple guys that sell the actual Toyota warranty as low as you can find it. I cancelled my Fidelity warranty and bought the Toyota one for literally half the price. The dealership I bought mine from was in Maine I think. Can't remember the name. A quick search here should pull up some info. I think they guys name was Todd.

    I couldn't believe the difference in price and there's no sales tax in Maine, or whatever state it was, so I saved $$ there also. I got the 8 yr 100k for right around $1,000. Realized I got raped on the Fidelity one.

    Southeast Toyota is owned by J.M.family as is Courtesy auto..All dealer's in the SE must sell there warranty's ..However you can buy a Toyota warranty but in must come from a dealer out of SE Toyota..

    Troy quoted me $150 less for the same time frame as the fidelity warranty, and $375 more for the +1 year +25,000 miles :eek:

    Definitely cancelling the Fidelity... just looking at their reviews online made me uneasy... Thanks! :cheers:
