    That's a gorgeous vehicle. And sounds like you got a great deal overall. Enjoy it. I got along without a bed for 4 years. The few times I really need it, I just rented one from uhaul for $29 a day. Now that I have a truck again, I've yet to actually need the bed. LOL you made a good choice.

    Like I noted above plus insane resale value and more practicality at least in my case...

    $3,000 to $5,000 in that range. Cost about the same as a full Line-X of the exterior.

    It varies per vehicle but retail is usually around $2,200 to 2,400. Dealer Employee price is usually around $1,200-1,400 for a platinum warranty on a 4x4 vehicle

    ? He did raise my trade value by $1500 and took $500 off the 4R from what the values we originally agreed upon. The line item cost of the warranty on my paperwork is $2600. So it was the shell game by all practical purposes, but in actuality I only paid $655 for it. There was no other hidden charges or crap add ons. Straight tax, doc fee, and license fee. I asked him why can't you just put $660 on the paperwork and his comment was I can't show a loss... :rolleyes:

    The black TRD wheels really compliment the color. Nice rig!

    Would have seriously considered getting a Cement 4R but I just couldn't deal without a manual option!

    If Toyota revamps it significantly enough and offers a stick, I might switch to a 4R. :burnrubber:

    Happy trails!

    I hear you. But the auto tranny in the 4R is light yrs better then the 3rd Gen auto... I have been a manual tranny guy for my whole life while driving. The Taco tranny was ok to marginal as we all know, but this thing is butter smooth what we expect from a Toyota..

    Congrats and enjoy your new 4RP. I really like the look of those, and the color is a perfect combo with the 4R, IMO.
