4th Gen Tacoma (2024+)

2 factories? If you mean Texas and Mexico all production has moved to Mexico now I believe

 

^Two factories in Mexico now, Tijuana and new plant in Guanajuato.

 

What @3JOH22A said. More vehicles= more sales.

 

Just because you make more vehicles doesn’t mean you will magically have more buyers. There are still unsold 2023 Tacomas out there.

 

Ah ok , didn't know they had 2 there

 

2023 Tacomas may still be on the lot, but they will sell. Even with a discount, Toyota/the dealer will still make at least some profit.

 

He thinks they will never sell

 

Every vehicle gets sold, there is no car lot with 5 year old new F series or 3 year old Chrysler Pacificas out there. There is an ass for every seat.

 

Probably because they are a waste of money these days, why drag all your stuff to a show and pay to display it for a bunch of you tubers and journalists when you can just host an event in your HQ parking lot and accomplish the same thing for half the cost.

 

And Rams 405K for 2023 / 545K 2022

 

Of course they will sell eventually at leftover pricing. The dealers and manufacturer doesn’t want that to happen though because it devalues their product. I think Toyota is a bit smarter than people on this forum and realizes that it’s not a smart idea to flood the market with 600K Tacomas.

 

1/2 ton sales and HD sales are different due to fleets and marketing for sure. We see pest control Tacomas and Coca-Cola runs around my area with Colorados. But the majority of fleet sales are 1/2+. Also from a price standpoint, fleet pricing is insane. Back when I was a sales director for a Ford/Lincoln dealer I did a deal for a power plant for a small order of trucks. They received 12 HD trucks for less than $400,000. These are F-550 cab chassis vehicles that would MSRP for over $45/50k. I would be curious to see if Toyota fleet sales receive similar discounts to the Big 3.
Marketing is the other side, being able to say you're the #1 seller for xx years helps with many customers.

 

Will we get to 1000 pages before anyone actually gets a 4G?

 

Probably lol

 

Probably. I don’t think the EPA has completed their testing yet so nothing can be sold.

 

You could make an inquiry and see if it compares to your experience when you were selling for Ford.

@Turd Ferguson

The EPA has yet to have been able to make it through their test course without running out of gas.

 

Stupid small fuel tank.

 

Does Canada have an EPA requirement? Maybe Toyota will start shipping trucks there instead.
