Dealer SOLD my truck - resolved

Thank you

congrats on your truck!! I love me some 7570 - rare bird indeed

 

I tried to find a MT ACLB allocation (looked thru the allocations for the next 6 months myself, employee) and couldn't find a single one. I would've settled on a sport for an MT too lol, but hey, I like the autos too, and I drive a fuck ton so I don't mind the auto.

 

Not sure entirely what "7570" means? Is that the color code for cement grey?

But SR5 trim + double cab + long bed + black alloy wheels was definitely a combo my dealer said was super hard to find.... Thats why I had to wait a litle over a month for one to come off the line with those specs AND had to buy it with the extra factory options it came with (that I would not have added by choice if given the choice) and had to compromise on color (would have prefered black instead of cement but cement is growing on me)... Dealer said that was the closest thing coming off the line that checks all my boxes.

 

Some red panel interior
Edit: the 7570

 

ah, mine doesnt have that. just normal grey cloth seats, no red accents.

 

7570** is the model code for the SR5 DCLB 4x4. Toyota doesn't allow us to buy that in this region, which is why I had to look outside, which is what started this whole saga in the first place.


My current one is a 7568** (OR DCLB 4x4), which is allowed in my region, but was outside of my budget. It is also a hard on to find:https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/the-unicorn-of-3rd-gen-tacomas-model-7568a.412954/


Knowing the model code really helped my shopping. Since autotrader/cars.com doesn't always correctly say the right bed size. Similarly, dealers don't put it on their website correctly always. Some dealers do put the code, which makes it easy to find.

Thus EVERY one I shopped for, I had dealer send me VIN/Code so I could confirm it was the right spec

Sorry too much nerd out**

 

No. 7570 doesn't denote anything about the interior color

 

This was the interior of my 7570

My current 7568 incoming is all boring black - albeit its leather.

 

Ah! nice, makes perfect sense. Yep SR5 DCLB 4x4 (7570) is where its at. Best combination of utility (double cab and long bed) plus good price (cause sr5 trim).... Hoping itll be a great truck for years to come. Really happy with it so far (had it 12 hrs lol)

 

You could incorporate 7570 into a personalized license plate and only the hardcore Tacoma people would know what it's about. And everybody else would have no idea...

 

Hopefully you will be able to skip "time for airing of grievances"

 

haha, saw that Seinfeld episode recently!!!Congrats Julia and good luck sleeping!

 

Most impulse buys happen just after midnight so if you are still awake maybe you can meet your spending quota. 3 more days!!!

 

I have the same bad habit too. It's tough to get under control.

 

If you all think that you're bad, check this out.
I've been buying parts for my truck since I ordered it, and it doesn't even get built until 2/5.
Looks like I'm gonna have to start a build thread as soon as I get the truck home.

 

I think there is a 12 step program for MAS (Mods Aquisition Syndrome). I would go, but they have their meetings at the Jeep dealers. Besides, I can stop anytime I want.

 

I had a stack of parts sitting on my work bench weeks before my truck arrived.



..and this sitting in the garage - my LOMAX cover.

 

I also live in the redwoods, where are you located? I am in Crescent City.

 

Did you even look at this thread?

 

Now you are tempting me, it's only 850 miles from me.
