    That would be the perfect Tacoma for me, and would make a lot of sense. I don’t off road at all and 4x4 is only useful when it snows, which is maybe a few times a year.

    It was, but in January one dealer in my area was asking almost $30K for a 2020 Corolla LE with like 28K miles.

    My local dealer expected me to $570 for a remanufactured alternator last December "because it's OEM". If it was brand new, I would have considered it, but I bought a remanufactured one at AutoZone for $220...

    Originally part of a thread called Another overpriced buy here pay here find...

    2017 DCSB SR5 4x4 with almost 116K miles; Yours for almost $32K! This not the most obscenely priced 3rd Gen I've ever seen, but the high miles and the fact that it's at a buy here pay here lot (rather than the Toyota dealer directly across the street, which you can actually see in the first picture :D) are both incredibly off-putting...

    Considering all the cool upgrades like tri-color grill badging and tonneau cover I’d say that’s a great deal! :anonymous:

    Looks like some minor front end damage (R/F fender, broken grille). I'm concerned about what you can't see.

    The unfortunate thing is someone will buy it for around about 500 less and pay more than 3x that in interest and fees. The dented scrapes are just the tip of the shaft the buyer will get.

    Plus they might get an ignition disable device installed (unbeknownst to them) so the truck doesn't start if a payment is missed.

    If somebody is willing to pay that price...the dealer would be a fool NOT to ask it. OTOH...if nobody will pay that price...the price WILL be reduced, guaranteed.

    Buy here pay here lots are dealers of last resort. It's where you go if you have no other alternative, and it costs you big time.

    On the bright side, if that happens they might end up here asking how to get it started.

    Hahah wow. Yeah I think you’re right about that being the most overpriced one I’ve seen yet.

    I bought my SR5 new for $32K at the end of 2020.

    That is a beautiful truck though lol
