Hey! I thought this poll would be an interesting addition to see where we all ended up. Did you:

  1. 1. Get exactly what you were looking for at your original dealership?

    92 vote(s)
    27.5%
  2. 2. Put the feelers out at several dealerships and find your perfect or near perfect match?

    125 vote(s)
    37.3%
  3. 3. Make a considerable compromise in color or equipment to get a Tacoma at all?

    40 vote(s)
    11.9%
  4. 4. Get super lucky with an inbound vehicle or cancellation in a relatively short timeframe?

    96 vote(s)
    28.7%
  5. 5. Give up and exit the market?

    10 vote(s)
    3.0%
  6. 6. Buy Used?

    10 vote(s)
    3.0%
  7. 7. Buy a different Toyota Truck (4Runner, Tundra)?

    Received multiple door lock and unlock notifications today, not sure what that means but hopefully a good sign. Build date of 8/31, delivery estimate between 9/23 and 10/15.

    I think this forum is kind of kindred spirits all trying to tough this out. I recall that you’re in a similar situation that you currently don’t have your primary vehicle so these unknowns are so frustrating.

    I will have to check with Rod03 at the end of this week to see if there is an update on the boat. Just seems so weird that I would get a doors unlocked notification after 1 AM (which was just after midnight local time in Veracruz) and then not be on the Newark boat that departed Veracruz at 6:17 AM this morning when the next ship is 2 weeks away.

    My wife worked for one of the big car carrier companies and she told me vehicles got left behind all the time. Sigh…

    Do you have to have your perm VIN to access the connected services. My Temp VIN just stopped working but I do not see the perm VIN yet.

    As I understand things, when your permanent VIN is issued, the temporary VIN ceases to exist. I haven't checked, but in theory at least, my Tacoma was built yesterday; I'll give my sales associate until the end of the week to give me the new VIN before I reach out to him and ask.

    I got my perm vin from the dealer website. My salesman hasn’t said anything this whole time actually…. But I don’t mind it. I think this thread has eased most of the anxiety for me, thanks to @Rod03. Luck of the draw too

    After many patient months and @Rod03 requests, I have a truck!

    Shout out to Damien at McGee Toyota in Claremont, NH for not charging over MSRP and being very professional throughout the entire process.

    Two hour drive home and I love it!

    It's worth the wait everyone!

    Resharing the link to buy Rod diapers, beer, mods, whatever it may be! Thanks again.

    @Rod03 when you get a chance can you see if there is a updated location for 3TMCZ5AN7NM523708? Thanks!

    I assume it is, nothing is coming up with the temp VIN anymore.

    My salesman just contacted me and said my truck departed by rail yesterday. It’s getting real. @Rod03 can you see if there’s an ETA on it?

    Much appreciated as always sir!
