Yea but it is a Toyota so if it anything like my 2009 RAV4 you will not be able to completely disable the traction and stability control. Plus every 60 to 90 days you'll be getting recall notices in the mail. Then you'll take get to to your local dealer and leave it for days so some poorly trained slack jawed tech can sawzall off the current issue off you car and add yet another yellow sticker to the door jam showing it had its prescribed warranty/recall work.

The RAV4 has given us a few minor issues in its time with us but it has now taken the #1 spot in days spent in the dealership for warranty/recall crap for all cars we have ever owned.

Not a Toyota fanboy anymore.

Does Subaru have a better warranty then Toyota?? Since it is actually Toyotaru because in recent history Sporty to Toyota was Camry SE! Which forced them so they to go out and find help to attempt to make a sports car.

Did I mention I'm not a Toyota Fanboy anymore??

Other test drive sources have said you can turn the tc totally off if you choose to.

Also, from what I've read about it, the important mechanical bits (chassis, engine, suspension, etc) are brought to you by Subaru. Toyopet just styled the thing...
