Lunar Rock Gen III Thread

I wonder if any process engineer got in trouble for this.

 

Yeah, it was my first time doing any kind of online tire experience, but SimpleTire made it really easy, and i'm over the moon with these SL rated Maxxis. To get such a good looking tire, good performing tire at such a light weight. It's pretty incredible.

 

I kind of like the OR decal over the Pro door badge.

 

nicee!!! I just ordered today salesman said end of may for me..

 

WHAT!? I put a deposit for one last week with a local dealer. I was told they haven't placed an order yet, waiting for the "build book" which they get twice per week. No guarantee that ill get one on next allocation, but they supposedly called the district rep and said they needed one. That said, I was told that it will be July by the time the order goes in, then build date and delivery date a month after that.

Was also told any orders placed after March for any Lunar Rock/AT or MT will likely not be built as that would end up being in the 2022 model year. Fingers crossed I still get my Lunar Rock- AT, no add-ons.

Maybe your dealer already had one scheduled to come in? Does anyone know if the all season Pro mats come with the TRD Pro or are those extra- dealer told me I had to order them as an add-on (the only thing I'm adding for the order).

 

Those tires should b xxx rated. Gorgeous

 

The one I ordered to had a vin attached to it.
There is another LR coming end of April no name on it comes with predator steps. I passed on it since I wanted no options at all. Bay Area dealer MSRP just need $500 deposit lmk..

 

Ah, so the dealer already had one allocated to them. nice!

Appreciate the info- Ill stick with my order since I am up in WA and already gave deposit; I ordered mine without any add-ons except TRD Pro rubber mats (although I thought those came with the truck). MSRP.

 

2ACR. If you ain’t Cav.......

 

I bought a set that's sitting in my attic in its box because I thought those were extra.

So when I went to pick up the truck lo and behold it was there with the truck free of charge.

 

I believe the pro mats are standard. They were in mine and not listed as an additional accessory.

 

@smseagren I believe standard carpet TRD pro rug mat are included.

 

ah! Thank you for finding that! So my sales guy was correct, I did need to add them on the order! Good deal!

 

TRD Pro Mats are not carpet, they are all weather rubber with a tire tread pattern.

 

Frustratingly, the tires on the mats have better off-road grip than the tires on the truck.

 

Underrated comment

 

I'm sure that draws a lot of attention from other Tacoma owners

 

It's a super special edition that the process engineers in Mexico cooked up.

I had them taken off.

 

A bit of unsolicited advice!
I'd suggest to jump on any PRO (or any Taco for that matter...) that fits what you want.
My initial LR order from a very reputable dealer (A high volume dealer) and trusty salesman from back in Oct '20 has not been met by Toyota. - I do not hold it against them, it is how it goes...

BUT I was lucky to run into my Manual LR already allocated to a dealer up in Oregon. I also put a deposit on that over the phone minutes after I became aware of it; and 20 days later, I had it in my grubby hands.

With all the delays, and complications going on - on top of the already spoken-for allocations now pushing to the end of model year's production, I think that many LR PROs will just not be there... I am sure the last ones are more likely to be found with a large, and largely un-negotiable additional dealer mark-up, as we have seen. People are paying it...

Grab it if you can snag it, I say!

 

When my manual LR popped up on my dealer's website after 6 months wait (autolinked based on GST Distribution) one popped up at Haas as well.

Out of curiosity I called Haas and it was an ordered car. At that time they had another LR manual coming in that was not spoken for which I am sure is by now.

Haas also had tons of automatic Pros, a lot more than my dealer in the 6 months that transpired while I waited for mine.

Wife and I have been talking about putting a deposit for another manual Pro just because they are so rare and why not have another one.
