Hi all. We bought an 05 Sequoia from a dealership in AL. We are in
Louisiana. Before we drove 5.5 hours to pick up the car I
specifically asked if they could lease the car to us. The answer was
yes and double checked yes.

We drove up, got the car, signed the paperwork and came home.

1.5 weeks later they call and tell us that they can't lease us the car
because we are in Louisiana and we need to bring the car back.
Obviously we're not about to drive the 11 hour round trip for a
mistake they made. They said we could drop it off at a local
dealership and they'd have it towed back to their dealership.

This is our first Toyota and had very high hopes for the company and
the car.

Any advice on what we can do?

It sounds like the problem is more with the leasing company than the
dealership. You can see if a local LA leasing company or bank is willing to
purchase the vehicle and lease it to you. If you can swing that, it would
be the easiest thing to do.
