    I got the Black 2013.

    MSRP $39,155.00
    Invoice $36,510
    Sell Price $34,854

    The only thing this has other than the Baja upgrades is the Entune/Navigation with subwoofer. I'm not really sure what difference that will make though. I use my phone for nav these days.

    End price was $34,354 since the wife qualified for recent college graduate rebate. The dealer has to get plates before we can take it, so hopefully we will take possession in the next couple of days.

    Other than dealing with a shady dealer (multiple "mistakes" on the paperwork that attempted to increase price) I'm very excited about getting the truck. Thanks for all the feedback and help guys. Will post pics soon. :)

    I would have walked my happy ass out the door after the first "mistake" much less a couple! They'd be apologizing to me, buying me a soda from the machine, AND taking off some more on the price, free lifetime oil changes and free tires for life, something. Congrats on the new truck though!

    Yeah, the reason I didn't was I'm pretty sure I got the better of the deal. They underpriced the truck to get me in the door and then lowball trade in, get me on financing. I didn't need the trade in or financing help, so I was able to stick them to that price. The white Baja I was looking at was $600 more and didn't have the Nav/Entune package. Overall, a frustrating greasy dealer experience, but one I was willing to tolerate to get the truck I wanted at a good price.

    I picked mine up, out the door, for under 30K with my trade in. I love it. Regardless of what everyone else says "waste of money", "do it yourself", "blah blah blah old skool gen 1"... If you want the performance/upgrades, but lack the ability (like me, my truck stays parked in my mom's garage when I'm overseas, and she is uncomfortable taking my truck for upgrades) or the decisiveness on what you want (outside of a purpose built vehicle like the Raptor), go for it. I've had a few Taco owners flag me down in parking lots to talk about it, it's a sexy truck and the decals are a great conversation starter. I think it's a happy median between stock and too much. For those that argue the "Buy the TRD package and do it yourself", why not just buy completely STOCK and do it yourself? At the end of the day, it's your money and your truck, do what you want to with it.
