What are you paying for 2020 Tacomas?

Sounds like that’s factoring your $3k trade so more like $43k, but yes still sounds like a decent deal.

 

no, they said it would be $37k after trade

I could sell the old truck for around $5k but it would be a hassle

 

Gotcha. Ya then that’s a once in a lifetime deal. Never seen a current year pro go for that big of a discount. That’s only $800 more than what I paid for my loaded TRD OR with a $44.8k msrp before TTL. I would have totally snagged the pro instead if I was presented with that deal though I would have been skeptical were they are trying to make the money elsewhere cause that is way below invoice and eating into holdback.

 

Yeah, the dealer even told me it was into holdback. I think they’re going to sell the trade for a lot more if I do the deal.

I started looking around, and I know this sounds bad on this site, but you can get a fully loaded Ram for almost $20k off at certain dealerships now. As much as I like the Tacoma, the Hemi engine is really nice and I could get much more rear legroom for about $5-10k more. I’m torn as to what to do. I’m probably an idiot for not jumping on this deal. I’ve made so many poor car decisions in the past that I’m so worried I’ll make another.

 

There is a reason the Ram is 20K off and see how much it's worth in 5 years not even counting mechanical issues .

 

Question though, can i account for the 10%+ off MSRP if I’m ordering my truck custom made to my likings?

Thank you

 

I've never been able to not negotiate 10% off MSRP on any of my new Tacomas, but its not guaranteed it'll be between you and the dealer. Most that allocate or "order" a truck just negotiate $100-500 over invoice or something like that. Keep in mind the dealer usually has I wanna say about $1000 of dealer holdback from Toyota on Tacomas but most wont budge on that. And just a side note you don't custom build a truck with Toyota. What will happen is your region will see if there is an allocation already for the particular configuration of your truck and snag the allocation, if its not a usual allocation build for that region than they will do a special allocation request.

 

That’s the Covid-19 deal of the year!!! I think a manual Pro has an MSRP of around $44k.

 

Yeah, it’s at MSRP for over $45k but they have it advertised for something like $43,500.

 

If you have a stable income stream I would say jump on it. That’s an insanely low selling price.

 

you guys financing the new trucks with toyota finanical? I haven't had a car payment since 2013. I paid off toyota financial and I dont recall if GAP insurance was on it or not... do you guys need the gap insurance from auto insurance companies?

 

Dealer Holdback on Toyotas is 2% of the base MSRP before options. It varies for each manufacturer.

Ya I couldn't remember thanks, guess my $2k number was extreme. Point was most dealers will show you the door if you try eating into that as well and that it exists, most people are fixated on invoice.

 

sounds like an incredible deal! can't wait to hear / read more about it!!!!

 

Here's an update. I spent the morning emailing about 5 dealers and received a quote for a great price on similarly specced truck that was about 100 miles away. I emailed the quote to the dealership I visited yesterday and they matched it! I'll be picking it up on Monday!

Big thanks to everyone in this thread. I'm happy to get a great truck at a great price.

Cement DCSB OR 4x4 AT w/ trd premium, tech, led headlights and all weather mats
MSRP $43,873
Rebate $1,500
Discount $4,223
Total $38,150 (13% off)

 

Good deal, very similar to mine. And that config was hard to come by in my region, inventory was moving fast.

 

Congratulations!

Cement is my favorite color, followed by QS. Enjoy the truck.

 

My 2020 TRD Sport was supposedly built on 3/4. I have not heard a peep from the dealer since the beginning of the month. Not sure if its in transit or sitting on a lot somewhere. In any case, at least here in Pennsylvania dealers are open for parts and service only. So even if it is there or soon arrives I don't know how they will be able to actually sell it to me. Can anyone comment on what is being done in other states or how you guys are actually able to take delivery?

 

Got this in an email from Toyota this morning.....once they receive your truck I'm sure they'll figure out a way to close the deal.

MSRP:. $43608
FINAL PRICE:. $37625
Discount:. 13.72%
Tax,Tag,Title: $1152ish
Out the door was $38,800
90 days no payments and 3.19 for 72 months.

Pretty happy with the deal overall. In and out in less than an hour. I'm sure I left some money on the table because they certainly seemed willing to play but I loathe car buying.

On another note, the dealership was dead. I was the only person there at 11am on a Saturday.

Now that I've bought mine I'm sure Toyota will come out with some monster deals next month.
