Didnt crack cause I'm indecisive as h*ll

Good god 52k for a midsize truck and not even a pro … gratzs and all … no way in hell I would ever pay that price to rich for my blood lol

 

Great looking truck!! Enjoy the heck out of it

 

Great example of how early buyers are redefining what is considered a “good deal” at a Toyota dealership, but it seems like really nice truck that wears black very well. Definitely looking forward to hearing more from you about the ownership experience. Congrats

 

Thought a used raptor is around 70-73 since they are 82 new.

 

You should really do a quick write up on what you like better than the turd gen and what’s worse or what not.

btw this isn’t the hybrid even though it’s licking 60k ?

 

A little more than half. I was looking at new ones and 2023 3rd gens, so $76-83k range. But yes, half wasnt like literal half. After my truck trade in $15k@5.9% vs $35k is alot different.

 

Correct, but I got them down to $51k something just under $52k sale price from $58k, its a loaded TRD OR so premium, SDM, and another $2k in add on's (predator steps, dash cam, toyoguard (SET region thing), etc.). I just said hey I dont want this stuff or this color, here is my last deal and current allocation deposit deal on a SDM, OR, Prem package if you can match it I'll consider it, they matched it, even a SDM OR Prem without any add ons is 54k.

I will, though when I pick it up it'll be on a King setup and my volks lol

 

Yea for sure quite a bit more. But a bit apples to oranges as well.

 

True, I just am having a hard time jumping brands, but its been a halo vehicle for me since it came out when I was a young active duty airman and desperately wanted one. My other issue is they have a stigma "douche canoe / bro driver" and thats not me, Im an IPA drinking dirt bike riding former weather man turned nurse goofy dude who likes to mess around on stuff in the garage, work on the lawn, etc. Dont own any flat bills or affliction tees, never have, lol. But thats also shallow / egocentric reasons to not buy a certain vehicle.

 

Pit Viper sunnies !

I’m having a really tough time with the BRO-aptor stigma myself. The size is the other problem … I am still not sure if it can vertically clear the garage as it’s 80.2”

 

That was my hang up with any full size, it wont fit in the garage with my wife's ride and the bikes / tool box, etc. the Taco is a squeeze as is and we have a larger deepth/width 2 car. So it would sit outside and I'm OCD about my vehicles.

 

Congrats!!!!


Method 305's on black, look. so. good.

 

Nice, yours? Stock setup? Im a bit worried about my -10 Volks but I think it'l look pretty nice. Methods are played out on the 4th gen and I get it not many positive offset options.

 

Not mine and not sure what the suspension is either. But once I do get one, these are at the top of my list.

 

Maybe negotiate a better price?

 

Not sure how, its a premium, OR with SDM and some other options. The Sports and SR5s maybe, but $51k and change on this is a good deal, people are out of touch I think on pricing. Its expensive sure, but so is everything else, and guess what OR premiums are hard to come by and you certainly are not getting one for less than $51k.

 

Sry, I wasn’t talking to you. I think you negotiated a solid deal there. I was talking to the poster who said these things are too expensive.

 

So the $52K price includes labor cost to install the King suspension and you provide the parts?

 

No way bro. $1500 with alignment and sensor swap for my wheels/tires is what I negotiated.

 

Yeah your Right..The 3rd gens do suck.It just seems like yesterday when the 24's came out..Now here we are today looking back,and that truck has set the benchmark in the Auto Industry for Durability,reliability and dependability...Who would have knew
