Old Taco Owner, New Member question.

Hey Fellas, I've been trolling the threads the past month or so and I'd figure I finally join the party. Here's my quick story, I've owned a few FJ's back in high school, a few Toyota pick-ups (1993,1995), a few 2nd Gen 4runners' and a 2013 Taco Sport DC.(Bilstein lift, w/285's, I purchased the 2013 Taco with 6K miles approx in early 2014 and loved it. I had a lapse of reason a few months ago and traded her in for a 2015 4runner Limited for the wife. My thinking was to wait for the 2016 model and get into one of those. Well I don't want to turn this into a I dislike the 3rd Gen's but I's not right IMO. It kinda looks resembles Dodge Dakota again JMO. Anyways to my question.

I have decided to jump into a 2015 DC this time in silver sky, my last was super white, I noticed that the local dealers are starting to discount them approx 2K. The OffRoad I'm looking at shows a MSRP $34200, they marked it down to $32,200. So you guys think I could get them to knock off any more $$? I talked to a sales guy a few days ago, he explained Toyota will allocate more 2016's to the dealers with the least 2015's, so I'm guessing they want to move them fast. Should I wait a few more months? thanks for the input.

 

The demand for these trucks is pretty high. Therefore the price doesn't usually have a lot of wiggle room. You could attempt getting it for a little cheaper but I wouldn't expect to get it for any less than $31,500. Just my two cents.

 

if you found what you like then I would take it, wait too long and you might not be able to get what you want in a 2015

 

Agreed. Saving a few hundred isn't worth much if the truck sells and you cant get the color/options you want.

Where does the RS4 fit in the picture?

 

Too funny I was trying to get your name and it was took, then you replied to me, lol the photo was last year's FFB trophy. Which I won BTW. I'll definitely see if they will go down a bit, thanks for the input.

 

Won't hurt to try to negotiate lower but if you really want it than get it before all the last of the 2nd gen. are gone!The new 3rd gen is ugly!Dodge front end,Tacoma 2nd gen.cab,Ford bed!Just my 2 cents!Good luck!

 

Decent! haha, you could have taken "Knighthawk" though, no?

 

Yes that makes sense, I'm in Central Oregon too and there is only one Toyota Dealer here unless I drive to Salem or Eugene which are over 2 hours drive. The RS4 is my garage queen. Another reason why I need to get back into a truck asap, I've been putting unnecessary miles on it. thanks for the input.

 

The commish actually misspelt my name which should be "nighhawk", I chose it from "stepbrothers" lol, I guess I didn't think about spelling with a K for this forum.

 

Yep, That's where I got it from as well. It was my nickname in college and I had a buddy that we called Dragon haha.

 

That's probably the best description of the 3rd Gen I've heard so far.
