    I don't think it matters that you make the exact build on USAA. It's not a car order form; it tells you what you can expect from dealers within 250 miles or so.

    If you build any truck, and then click on the "See what others paid" tab, you'll see how much the USAA price is relative to the dealer cost, factory invoice, MSRP, etc.

    The price USAA gives you is a guaranteed price relative to invoice on any model the dealer has in stock.

    Example: I build a 2012 DCSB Prerunner with no options. The best USAA price I get is $200 below invoice.

    If I go to the dealer who guaranteed $200 below invoice, I can choose any 2012 tacoma DCSB Prerunner on his lot, regardless of options, and have a guaranteed price of $200 below invoice.

    It works pretty well, and I even brought that guarantee to competing dealers to ask if they could beat it. They couldn't, so I ended up buying from the USAA-affiliated dealer.

    It does not have Entune, but it does have satellite radio. As you said its not stated on any of the quotes or spec lists but it is included.

    Correct, it does have the new floor mat "mounts". No idea if they will work with the weather tech though.

    Good luck with the Entune, I almost waited for a 2012 to come in with it but didn't think it was worth the price. Plus I wanted my Wife to have a new truck before I left for Taiwan for 2 weeks... Ready to go home!!

    saw my first ’12 yesterday. went to one of the dealers. i like it! the lines on the front are a bit deceiving in the pic. looks allot better in person IMO! and i was that it has some tie down points in the front of the bed. kinda close to the bottom and on the side. (they are shaped like the tie down points in the 4 corners of most truck) those like half circles with a bolt on each end.

    Cooncified,

    Thank you for the response. I ordered a '12 recently and I too am not going with Entune. I personally feel it's way too expensive for what it does, just my opinion. Glad to hear the trucks do come with Satellite radio though. I even contacted Toyota through their website and their response was basically it should have satellite radio however they couldn't guarantee it had it. I even provide Toyota with a VIN number. I was shocked with the response.

    Are the same "mounts" used for the passenger and rear floor mats?

    Thanks again, and looking forward to a new truck I hope your able to enjoy yours before your trip.

    Anybody else notice that the one in the video appears to have the old style taillights? Maybe this was already talked about in here, but I didn't see it...

    I think that was a 2.7L due to the 0W-20 sticker on the window.

    That's because it's a 2.7L - they require 0W-20 synthetic.
