    Need to know for those who have purchased the Premium & Tech... My dealer says the Tow Package is not included in the premium and tech package and needs to be added $650, but according to Toyota's build website it is included in the package... does anyone know for sure?

    Tow package was separate on my build. It includes the tranny cooler and wiring for brake controller.

    Separate.

    I've yet to see a new TRD sold without the tow package, so it's basically a mandatory option, but will be priced separately on the build sheet.

    MSRP for non-JBL Tech Package is $2,330...and MSRP for Tow package is $650. So for the price they are showing, they just lumped them together on your screen grab.

    Don't pay another $650 on top of that price though...

    What you just posted is valid. Look at the totals. Your first post had a total of $2980 for Tech/Prem and Towing.

    This post has $2,330 for prem/tech and $650 for towing. Same price overall...one just has them combined and the other has them separate.

    edit: Looks like you posted as I was typing. Glad it makes sense.

    This is from the Toyota build site and is bundled that way because that's what is currently available for your region. Check in a month or change zip codes and these bundles change periodically. Tow package is separate from Prem & Tech, and can theoretically be had without it.

    Tow package is included on all V6s (at least here in SoCal), but as others have already pointed out you still have to pay for it as an additional package.
