Said my goodbyes to my cement Taco Pro today.....

So finally I picked up a cement 4RP.. Last Tuesday night I checked Cars.com like I have done for the last month multiple times a day. A cement pro was newly listed and the dealer was located only an hour and half away(Columbus, OH). Sent a request as usual to see if is available/status, etc. I didn't hear anything the next morning, so I called the dealer to see what was up. Talked with a really nice internet sales guy(Josh) and he said there was actually two coming and both were already sold/reserved to one of the senior sales associates. He ordered one for his wife and the other for his self.
An hour later he calls me driving to work, and explains the whole story behind both of them. It ended up his wife didn't want anything to do with the 4RP, so he was 98% sure he was going to sell the other one. I got very lucky, and was in the right place at the right time. There was three sales guys not very happy because they wanted dibs on it. Hossain Saadat...Senior Sales Associate @ Toyota West, Columbus OH was truly a pleasure to work with. From my trade in value for my Taco Pro to offering to give me the friends and family price for the 8yr, 100k platium warranty..$655(smoking deal). The finance guy did all the paperwork in his office then Hossain brought it out to his desk and I signed the papers....was in and out the door within an hour. Both 4R's landed at the dealer around 10:30am, and I was back home with my new baby by 3pm. Just a great day, and I am truly in love with this thing. It's my first time ever driving one until today, and from all the reviews, videos, etc, I must say it's all that and more.... I really liked my Taco Pro!! We had 9 great months together, but the main thing that set me over the edge to make the switch to the 4RP was the space when hauling my family around while towing the boat on the long outing's. I will miss the bed on the taco a little I am sure, but there was way more positives then negatives with swapping. I will still check in here at TW from time to time. My son turns 16 later this year, and I have plans on picking him up a Gen 2 Tacoma.

 

What was the sales price on the 4Runner ?

 

what have you done...

but seriously, good looking new ride. If i didnt have to have a truck, id be in one of those 4RP.

 

Lucky SOB

 

So . What was the exact out of door price in case I convince myself to get a 4RPro like yours? Looks nice , congratulations and enjoy it at least 500K miles

 

$43,384... $44,717 all in..thats with my trade tax credit....only paid $390 in taxes...

 

Nice choice!

 

Congrats on the new 4R, I bought my old 2000 Tacoma new up at Toyota West.

 

Really good people.. Very easy to work with...

 

First time seeing one of those in cement color. Looks absolutely gorgeous man. Good luck with her and enjoy!!

 

You do realize you could have bought a 2004 Porsche Turbo for that same amount?

 

Thanks man!! I agree..When I first saw both the Taco and 4R Pro's in cement I always have thought the 4R looks the best in cement...

 

Shit man.... Don't get me thinking along those lines....That's all I need, or I should say all my wife needs is for me to get anymore bright ideas with my vehicle dealing's......

 

Congrats. Get a utility trailer. I like making them from old boat trailers and retaining the tilt feature.

Anyway, that will make you forget the truck bed for those HD and garden store runs.

 

$660 is less than Emp cost on a platinum warranty on a 4x4 vehicle.

They got you somewhere else and are making you think you got a great deal

 

What's the normal retail price? $2000?

 

so, what are the top three things you love about the new ride?

 

Congrats, looks great in Cement.

 

1. Motor
2. Tranny
3. Build quality

 

I think the cement 4Runner is the best looking vehicle on the market in the US. What are your advantages over the Tacoma?
