    Count me in the cancelled my Bronco order and bought a Pro club. I really dig the Bronco but the process was such a shit show. Happy with the Taco though!

    Same hear. Got tired of the Bronco mess. I will be in my new Tacoma this Tuesday. Nothing special SR V6 4x4. But I'm glad I made the switch.

    There’s was a Lunar Rock with M/T for sale for $60k on a dealers lot last week. Wait for your order, sell it for $59k and buy a Bronco with the proceeds.

    Yeah.... I would probably go buy a Raptor for that money! Good looking rig, though!

    Part of the appeal of the Tacoma for me is that it will hold its value like nothing else on the market, it will do everything I wanted a Bronco to do (except go topless/doorless), I know they have unbeatable reliability (unlike my Jeep), and fully loaded they still cost me less than anything else I was looking at. I just can't argue with any of that.

    A Tacoma can go topless and doorless if you’re brave enough

    I knew someone would go there! I am not brave enough... at least not on a new one.

    I would not worry about it too much. If your key requirement is the color, it’s highly likely you can get a 2022 Offroad or Sport in Lunar. Then you can mod it to your hearts content.

    You might call these guys and see if it is sold already.

    Who cares. My OR was at the port when my dealer grabbed it.

    A quick check on cars.com has some Lunar listings, too. I also checked on there and the VIN is valid, meaning is has been built.

    I waited close to 3 years for the Bronco. Gave up and In Nov of 19 I bought my 2020 Tacoma. So far it's been great with zero issues.

    Can't say the same for two of my neighbors with a Colorado, and a Ranger.
    The Chevy has been in for electrical issues 4 times, and the Ford had the transmission replaced.

    Thank you! I will call around first thing in the morning. I can probably live without the manual if I can find one at a good price.

    I hadn't done too much shopping around because I didn't think I would have a problem ordering one until a couple of days ago.

    Can't argue with Toyota reliability! A Chevy Colorado was never even in the question for me, but I definitely looked at Rangers. The truck is just too new here in the US for it to be worth it to me. Not to mention if I need to flip it for some reason I will hardly take a hit (if at all) on a Taco and the Ranger will get crushed.

    I went down to buy a Ranger, but the dealer would not take less than $34k. I walked a block down the road and bought the Tacoma for $31.6k.

    The ford dealer told me the Ranger was too hot to make any good deals. A month later they were doing 20% off, at that point it was too late.
