I just called Toyota to get the price on a factory manual for my new 05 LE. Here's what I found out. Volume 1...$128.00 Volume 2...$128.00 Volume 3...$88.00 Electrical diagrams.. $87.00 or a total of $458.00 When I asked why so many and why so much they responded saying that they were printed in Japan and were getting so big that they had to be sectionalized. This is outrageous to say the least for a company to try to rip someone a new one who just wants to know a bit more about the car and perhaps try some self maintenance that's not intuitively obvious. If I keep the car beyond the expiration of the 3 yr 36,000 mile warranty I'll buy an extended warranted because it's only $875 if you shop around.
