Open the glove box and if there are bags of black pastic plugs, make them put them in. Seems to be the biggest oversight from most dealers.

Check cold tire pressure before you drive it.

Check both key fobs to see if they work! Try one, then walk about 15 feet away, switch key fobs and try the second. It's not common, but a real inconvenience if they give you the wrong 2nd key fob!

Frame plugs, I think it has something to do with them tying the cars down during transport, supposed to be instaleld by dealer, my dealer was an idit trying to tell me car was better without them. Toyota woudl not put them in there is they were better off without them, why woudl they spend the $$.

My car was delivered without installing two small black plastic "L" pieces. They mount below the left and right sides of your front bumper, ahead of the leading edge of your wheels.
