The Toto site did include more listings than when I first went looking for a Toto. If the dealer list supplied on the Toto site does not work out, I did find another possibility. I checked for plumbing suppliers in my town and got a hit for one that looks to carry Toto and they have a number of locations in Virginia.

I will have to check them out to see for myself.
As for having one shipped, I agree it is certainly a risk. One of the risks that I was overlooking was damage may have occurred
prior to final shipping to the customer. So far, I am 2 for 2 and the place that I used really did a good job of packing. They used approx. 3" of padding on all sides of the box. I attached two images showing the packaging used to ship a Drake.
If somebody does turn up with a recommended outlet for Toto in the area, I would love to find out for myself. I will be needing another toilet and other bathroom essentials for when I add a bathroom in my basement.
