    In April I bought a White 2009 Taco DC TRD Sport 4WD with $15K miles, Bull Bar and Running boards for $25 out the door including tax.

    It has every option including blue tooth and XM Sat radio.:):):)

    All that matters is do you feel good about the purchase and are you enjoying the truck.

    Getting a "good deal" can be based on many variables.

    Seeing the third gen section forced me to get a Ford...
    no wonder the price was low...it had a bull bar on it!!! lol

    i paid $29k in July 08 for an 09 Sport DC SB 4WD...no rebates or incentives at the time b/c it just hopped on the lot. i'd say you did ok. 15k miles on these is negligible.

    We really, really love the truck hooked up a 3K popup camper 21ft and it towed from Chicago to Indy like a dream. :):)

    I had an S10 Ext cab tuck a few years back and there's no comparison!!!!!

    You might not have gotten the best deal in the entire world, but whats the use in worrying about it now? I've certainly seen worse deals, that's for sure. Enjoy your truck!

    (Im not saying your deal was bad, just no point dwelling on it either way)

    I bought my 2007 brand new for 26,xxx without tax, title and tags but it was a double cab SR5 4x4, not TRD, and had some options but wasn't 'loaded'. I don't think you got a smokin deal but I'd say you definitely did alright! Congrats on the new truck!

    Sounds like a great deal. I bought my 2009 TRD off road, white double cab short bed with 18K on it just 2 days ago from a guy at work. Paid 25K cash, no tax, he is hooking up the bill of sale for me which will save on all the BS taxes and no BS from the dealer. I had a hard time with it, since thats a lot of money for a used car, but 2 dealers already told me they would give me 25600K for it right now on trade-in, so I felt it was fair across the board. For some reason these things are like gold, I always wanted an old school last Gen model, but spent years trying to find one. People either wont give them up, or they want way too much and they are beat down. Sounds like we have the same model and options minus the running boards and bull bar, mine is still stock.

    I know, they are like gold and dealers know that. But we both did alright and enjoy your truck. :)

    Good deal. I payed $25 for mine 09 AC TRD Sport 11000 miles. I looked for 8 months to find it and in this area it was a $1000 cheaper than any I found.
