What are you paying for 2020 Tacomas?

2020 TRD OR 4x4 M/T
- Tech Package
- $34,200
- South FL

 

thats not bad of a deal... I think

 

do you get the LED package?

 

I got my 2020 trd offroad 4x4 without the new headlights (like the ones you posted) for35k and that’s with 2500 negative from my previous car and that’s with the GAP insurance and all

 

No thats its own package. $485 and totally worth it.

 

TacoBuffet. I hope you don't mind me asking but you seem incredibly knowledgeable about the various Tacoma trims and buying strategies. I am clearly not. If you drove 80% of the time on the road and 20% off the road in what I would call trails but not extreme overland situations, would you opt for an SR5 over the Off Road? My thinking would be to upgrade the shocks if I got the SR5 and that would be a better value than the Off Road. I would be curious to get your opinion on that if you don't mind.

 

Sr5 is plenty capable for that. TRD-OR will have better resale value. It’s a toss up. I’d get the TRD-OR for the extra features and manual trans option

 

Thanks for the thinking here. Much appreciated. I end up saving a fair amount that way. Still trying to run the numbers but it could be fairly substantial. I am not worried about resale since I will keep it forever (currently have a 2005). Since this is a weekend driver not sure I need the extra features but in your opinion which ones do you think would be crucial. I do love the idea of a manual but in NY it would kill me in our traffic.

 

Just got a call from the dealer notifying me the factory will be building my configuration of truck on June 29. It's a good thing I'm not in a hurry!

 

Lol, no prob bud. So I actually had a few SR5s. If you don't care about some of the standard stuff that comes with a TRD (proximity keyless entry, rear locker, qi charger and a few little things like that) than the SR5 is all you'll ever need, especially if you plan on gutting the suspension anyways. For me only reason I don't have an Sr5 is I like all my premium options, lol. But as @e30saam pointed out you'll save money going the Sr5 route.

 

Gotta put a plug in for just going with the SR then. Reason being is that a lot of the little upgrades, keyless entry, intermittent wipers that you got with the SR5 now come with the SR at least with the SX pkg and for less $, no foglights though but the kits are less than 100$. Might be worth looking into in more detail . GL with whatever way you go.

 

No

 

Wow when did you put your order in originally? I put in for a loaded OR 6MT about a month ago, and they expected 6-8 weeks before it would be in. I really hope it doesn't take that long...

 

You're not really putting an order in for a truck to be built. They look for trucks in the assembly line that meet your requirements. Yours must be more common or nearer to end of production.

 

I bought a 2020 trd off-road double cab with a manual transmission for 32,000

 

February 6 is when I ordered it. I suppose with everything that's going on with factories shutting down, the delivery dates got pushed out quite a bit. Since I already drive a 2004 Tacoma, I'm not in dire need of the new truck. Yet. ;-)

 

do you have the LED package?

 

2004 is a great truck! Keep it!!

 

Yeah I realize but still thinking about a rough estimate.

Also what I ordered is a loaded OR truck (basically all options - Premium + Advanced Tech and LED upgrade) with the manual transmission. I'm guessing not tons of those around!

I also have a 2019 already, so definitely not worried about it breaking down anytime soon!

 

Doubtful, betting that’s a bare bones OR. You have a strange obsession with the LED package, its $485 dude, just factor it in to whatever you're looking at.
