    Waiting for the Oct 30th build for my epic /mythical Blazing Blue TRD Offroad w moon roof . Apparently the only one that will ever be sent to the east coast requiring a unicorn sacrifice and my first born to get the build acquisition.

    Got an email update from a dealer down the road from me trying to convince me to stop my waiting and buy this exciting one of a kind truck that is slowly rusting for only $40K. I'd bite at $36 but at this point It should be obvious that they overpriced it. Would rather keep waiting and hope my build happens on the 30th.

    No wonder it is so much, it has the ultra rare praying mantis option. I was checking out the link and scrolling through the pictures when I noticed the praying mantis hiding in the wheel well.

    That and they stuffed it with every extra option they had leftover in their parts department, of course at dealer inflated prices.

    Gotta move the 2nd gen dealer parts somehow. It's amazing how overpriced some of them are

    The Praying Mantis option is $6000 ($5000 invoice) in Texas.

    Due to a lack of viable resources here in MD the Praying Mantis option is $40,000 which is a steal considering most of them go for around $60,000 due to their rarity. You actually are getting the truck for free since we cannot remove the Mantis from their natural habitat

    I found one at work the other day wandering around our sidewalk, he must've been looking for a TRD Pro because he seemed lost

    Can I just say the only reason the PRO only has a 2-2.5in lift is because even Toyota realizes how bad it is to change the UCA bolt...

    and can't get into the wheel well with that praying mantis..

    Someone should call and tell them they can't move that truck since its now a habitat, and if they don't won't to end up like VW they better listen..

    They don't lol.

    http://www.toyotaoforange.com/all-inventory/index.htm?search=Trd+pro

    They have 1 used one that has pro wheels and is considered a pro.
    3 new taco pros
    And a 2016 4Runner

    The market adjustment is bullshit. I was told people don't question it yet the tacos have been on the lot for like 3 months.

    Mantis option is illegal in California -- has been deemed potentially harmful to the species.

    It's black (ick) and MSRP on a TRD Pro is like $37K. But nice try.

    Forgot to mention I'm on month 2 of a 2016 build wait that started the 2nd week of August. Just tempted If I can negotiate a better deal than with the 15 pro+ get the mantis.
