I even checked Southwest for flight prices...

Too funny. What a coincidence. Yeah, that was the location. Bradenton is toward the southern end of the Tampa/St.Pete metro....and it was the cheapest one in the country. The second cheapest one in the country was at the opposite end of the Tampa/St.Pete metro in Holiday, FL. The one in TN, and the one in IL, each had been sitting on their respective lots for a long time in ???? conditions. I knew the ones in Tampa might have been exposed to a fair amount of heat, but that wasn't a concern in my book. I really have to thank roxy1 for posting the link to the cars.com detailed search page on Yarisworld. Without that link, I wouldn't have known how to do such an efficient nationwide search.
