Chiming in concerning the RAV 4
We were really looking into ordering one for the wife a year or so ago until we found out after the first year you would have to pay monthly or yearly for the remote start to work. More then likely we would never use the remote start but it's just the point of having to pay for something that the vehicle already is equipped with so we passed on it.

Oil related- Hopefully the weather keeps warming up here so I can make the switch from 0w30 redline to 5w30 for the summer.

wow, that is harsh.

You can buy after market remote start, but I hate that. tbh I hate any access for a dealer to have on me vehicle after sale. So they use their satellite system for remote start instead of direct from fob. Onstar ruined the world, unless you fly off a cliff, then it's great. Why I like my 2009 base model, there is no access nada, mise well be an model t with a radio, that is all I have. The first thing I will have to look into is can I delete that crap otherwise dunno. That is what drew me to rav 4 in the first place, base model no thrills, it sounds like maybe that has gone away. Will have to see if they still have base model with no toyo version of onstar. good info, thanks

No matter what she ends up with, no way I part with my 2009, they can bury me in that.
