Toyota Financial Offers College Grads $1,000 Rebate

Toyota Adds Car Keys To Cap And Gown Passage

When you graduate from college, it seems as if the world is your oyster. Your head is filled with knowledge and your heart is filled with the kind of soaring confidence that only a lack of years and wisdom can bestow. You think same day loans and fast cash loans grow on trees, and if that money tree should fall, papa’s gonna buy a 280Z.

Oh wait, wrong maker.

However, Toyota Financial appreciates just how much you’ll (allegedly) be able to pay them, now that you have a piece of paper from your college of choice. So long as you meet their criteria, you’ll save big money on a new Toyota.

A $1,000 rebate

Karl Greenberg writes for the MediaPost News column “Marketing Daily” that Toyota Financial Services (TFS)has launched its “largest offering to date” for college graduates. A hefty $1,000 rebate can be applied toward the lease or purchase of one of a select number of new Toyota vehicles, including the Scion, which has proven popular with younger buyers, says Greenberg. Toyota Financial says that it will extend this offer to those who have graduated within the past two years or will be graduating within six months.

The primary requirement for a new graduate to be able to take advantage of this recession-busting offer is that they must have employment. That, or they must be slated to begin work within 120 of days of purchase. Using sound actuarial data, Toyota Financial makes the determination whether the salary earned by the graduate will in fact be enough to cover both living expenses and vehicle payments. Just remember, think Ramen noodles, hot plate and a cot in a broom closet and you’ll be fine. ... click here to read the rest of the article titled "Toyota Financial Offers College Grads $1,000 Rebate"
