Anyone get options on a new 2023 TRD Tacoma Pro you didn't pay for...?

Well I paid for them I'm sure but it's not listed on the window sticker or in the quote I received from the dealer. I did pay for the SET Toyoguard $699 which is supposed to be paint sealant, 2 free oil changes, 4 tire rotations, interior stain guard. The only other option was the $425 paint upgrade for the Solar Octane paint. Just yesterday I figured out it has PPF on the front plastics bumper pieces and on the mirror caps. (See photo below) It also has green tipped valve stems which according to my son means they are filled with nitrogen. It's got locking lug nuts to.

I had a deal worked out over the internet for this truck the day it hit the dealer lot. This was right before Thanksgiving and I waited about 10 days before I flew to the dealer and drove it home. The dealer had me picked up from the airport and when I got to the dealership my truck was sitting in the showroom with a sold sign and my name on it. There was zero up-sale not even the typical extended warranty. It took the salesman longer to drive it across the street and fill it up with gas than it did to sign the paperwork.

I'm not complaining just find it kind of odd. Only explanation I can come up with is this dealer does all these things for free on all vehicles or someone made a mistake and added these at the dealership after I already had a signed contract....? This is a tiny dealership I find it hard to believe it was done by mistake. I'll post the window sticker when I get home from work today maybe these items on on there and I'm just missing it....?

Mirror caps...

They probably do it to most of their new inventory then double the cost and throw it on a window sticker addendum. Maybe you slipped through? Were all the stickers removed when you showed up?

 

That looks more like injection mold seam. Mine has those as well, and no PPF. Fyi, every new Toyota comes with 2/25 year/mile free oil changes/tire rotation.

 

Window stickers were removed and in the glove box. That may very well be mold lines and not PPF. It’s on all the plastic front end pieces.

Not sure where you are but Nitrogen filled tires has become standard for a while, at least in Southeast Toyota Distributing area, every car (All Toyotas) we have purchased in probably the last 10 years came with it and it hasn't been on the sticker.

 

Yes, mold lines are on all front pieces, if remember right Toyota only offers (PPF) it, on front of hood and door edges.

 

You made out like a thief with nitrogen filled tires.

 

Don’t forget the locking lug nuts. Those mold lines had me fooled. I did avoid the market adjustment that every other dealer were adding at the time.

Injection seam/mold lines etc…. Here’s mine

 

They ought to fill the tires with nitrous oxide. Then if you have a blow out, it might make you laugh.

 

My 23 pro came with locking lug nuts.
There was no charge or line item for them.
It also came with all weather mats but IIRC Pro's include them std.

 

Nitrogen in tires is a gimmick. The green tipped valve stems are just plastic valve stem caps that screw on. They do nothing but look stupid and ugly. Please replace them with black or grey plastic not metal which can corrode and stick to the valve stem like it's welded.

 

Our PRO was the other way around. Didn't get the cool hood decal and also the Tacoma badges on the doors were chrome and not black.

 

My Limited came with everything you mentioned (no PPF) without anything on the window sticker. I put new tires on it after 51 miles so the nitrogen went to waste.

 

Yeah, my ‘23 Pro had wheel locks and the Pro rubber floor mats. I think the mats must be standard in Pros because I don’t see them listed as an available option when configuring online, but the wheel locks weren’t on my sticker.

 

So looks like no one including me got options we didn't pay for.

 

The dumb predator steps.

 

You got them for free without paying?! That’s not too bad!

 

Aw crap I read too quickly. No, I paid for them but did not want them.

 

My tires came filled with free Helium.
