Fix or Repair Daily? I never said I liked those things... You may get a kick out of these reads:

Don't let them fuel your confirmation bias though.

 

so how much did you pay?

 

This is off the top of my head, don’t have the exact numbers with me. MSRP on my truck was 45,1xx, after discount and rebate paid 39,9xx, plus tax and license. Should work out to be around 10-11% off MSRP, which in my experience was not an easy thing to accomplish on my own in SoCal. The added benefit is I didn’t have to waste my time dealing with idiot dealers, work was all done for me.

 

Several TRD ORs I'm going to go test drive tomorrow:
2020 double cab MSRP: $38,607, online priced at $35,790
(includes Toyota $750 rebate, and offering 1% financing)

2019 access cab MSRP: $38,743, online priced at $35,028
(includes Toyota $2,000 rebate, and offering 2% financing)

I like the access cab for the added payload with the 6 ft. bed, and the OR model is rare in my area. I've also noted that this same setup for 2020 is $2k more. But, I want to see the 2020 refinements?

 

How can you possibly get 1% financing? The federal funds rate is 1.75%. The bank would be financing it to you at a loss. You'd be hard pressed to find any financing offers less than 2.09% as those rates barely cover the bank's overhead costs on the loan.

 

Toyota Financial Offers 0% financing sometimes too.

 

If it's manufacturer financed, that makes sense for the 0% offers. I've just not heard of companies financing for at or below the FFR unless it's promotional (like the 0% APR and bonus cash offers some makers do to increase sales volume on specific models). I haven't seen any promotions running for tacos lately.

 

Most manufactures offer 0% for extremely well qualified buyers, they make money for the vehicle and not the financing. A bank does not make money off the vehicle so something would not make sense for the bank to offer a lower rate then federal rate or they would be losing money on that loan.

 

I get all that. I won't get tied up too much here, just the 1% number in general looked odd. Oh well... look, a tree

 

Yeah, I figured he was referring to Toyota financing.

 

That whole video cracks me up.

 

After all, it is a pretty neat video.

 

Yes, Toyota financing.

 

TFS is not offering 1%, it'll either be 0% for 19's or 2.9% for 20's for well qualified buyers and for 60 months, at least in the SoCal.

Everyone here seems to have gotten some pretty badass deals here! Like many others have said, Costco is the best way to do it right now, especially for the 2020's. lmk if anyone is in the market.

 

I'm currently buying a 2019! Power seat in the 2020 was nice, but only for driver's seat?

Well here in Indiana, Toyota Finance is offering:
2019 is either $2k rebate or 1.9% for 60 months
2020 is either $750 rebate or 0.9% for 60 months

 

Wait...in Indiana they have .9 for 20's and 1.9 for 19's??? or is it vice versa lol

 

It's just as I wrote it... I know... weird that 2020s get a lower rate!
