How far did you go to buy a third gen? Stay local or hop on a plane

4 large Toyota dealers within 20 minutes of my home in Rochester but drove 144 miles to Watertown to get the only Pro I could find! Buffalo dealers (70 miles away) had 2 black ones but I was sold on Cavalry blue. After reading all the posts on the rarity and overcharging, I feel pretty damn lucky that I got exactly what I wanted so close. Timing, with a little bit of luck, is everything!

 

Good to know. I bought my truck in AZ and was under the impression that a smog wasn’t necessary in all 50 states. I have yet to transfer to CA because I was waiting for something in the mail to take to the DMV. The other day I got a piece of paper in the mail from a third party registration service that the dealer used. I called them and they said that’s what I show the CA DMV because AZ is a no title state when it comes to vehicles with a lien. Hopefully it goes smoothly!

 

I road a train to california, my buddy gave me a ride to the border next to Campo, Ca. Then i walked 800 miles to kennedy meadows. got a uber to Lancaster and bought a tacoma.

 

Chuck Norris ain’t got nothing on you. Walking 800 miles.

 

Forest Gump either, lol

 

Flew from SEA to PHX to buy my 18trdOR. Drove to Tucson to leave it with my parents. Flew back to SEA. Flying back down to Tucson on the 28th to drive it back to SEA with my brother (who couldnt take time off work until after tax season).

 

6 miles

 

I went 900 miles from Tampa area to Memphis. Finding a DC TRD OR was hard and dealers that had them up-charged the hell out of it. Memphis had a few dealers with tons of them on lot.

 

I drove 2 blocks from where I work

I win

 

Which servco?

 

I’m sitting at windward servco right now waiting for my 4Runner to be pau

 

Who's your dealer?

 

I didn't have a good experience with the dealership 10 minutes away so I drove a little over 20 minutes away. I take it there for the warranty work as well as they have fixed every complaint I've had with no pushback.

 

I’m on my recliner drinking a beer I’ll have one for you

 

As soon as I get home I have some in the ice box. Make me feel better.

 

Waited a few months for TRD 6MT. Had two local dealers compete and got the price I wanted.

Car registration in MI with a vehicle purchased out of state is a hell. After going through this craziness with previous vehicle, decided to buy in state and take the waiting pill.

 

Freeman Toyota in Santa Rosa.

 

Nobody wins when he buys from Servco.

 

A few miles, wandered in and they had exactly what I wanted. Overall, it was the easiest buying experience ever. Yuma, AZ
