2200 is a nice size of coin but if you put things in perspective you may have gotten a decent deal even a good deal.
First off I want to say Im not a car sales and I do in fact hate buying from dealer lots but some time you do get a deal from the bigger lots over some of the smaller.
Some of those ads you see in auto trader & in the paper are just to get you in the door. Dealers will re-run ads over and over again because of the initial response they got. It gets you to pay attention to there lot & come looking for that unicorn.
Toyota's have one of the highest resell values and the lowest cost of ownerships my Toyota's went for 550k miles with just regular maintenance before it broke down cant say that for the explorer we owned that the tranny fell out at 120K.
If anything ask for the sales manager let him know of your disatifaction and see if hell negotiate with you you may get lifetime of oil changes or something...
