How'd it make its way to Illinois?
People move? It might sell for a premium there (hence profit motive)?
There are lots of Toyota Rav4 EV's outside of California (like Spark EV, it is a pure CARB-ZEV compliance only car). Toyota also pulls a lot of stunts to make out-of-state ownership as painful as possible:
1) not paying for repairs under warranty
2) not paying for service under ToyotaCare
3) instructing dealers not to even touch the car
4) denying incentive financing
