Default 75,000 mile service for $350, too much?

Today I brought my ES 350 2010 to dealer for 75,000 mile service. The quote is $350 before 10% discount. I'm wondering what you think, isn't it too much for listed services?

Basically its just mostly inspection what they are recommending

I see actual "jobs" listed on your sheet:
-- Oil change
-- Rotate tires
-- Wiper inserts <-- stretching here lol
Which to me doesnt equate to $350.

When you get an oil change with the dealer, they do a multi point inspection anyways.
No extra charge.
They just dont test drive your car.
If you know your car well and services you had in the past, no reason for you to pay for just mostly an "inspection" at 75k.

With that mileage, i'd replace the drive belt if its original and maybe a coolant flush and brake fluid flush for $350 with the oil change of course.

I use a Toyota dealer, since the vehicle is basically a Camry. Same service plus 4 wheel alignment was about $168. Don’t recall alignment price but probably about $60-70. Thus you are getting ripped, big time.

forgot, mine also included rotate/balance 4 tires

Default Thanks, folks! Now I'm pretty sure it's a rip-off!
