Dealers do not have to "deal" at all, yet. They cannot keep the Tacoma on the lot. Only time will tell when the buying will cool off and they soften up a little.

The Sports seem to be overflowing on lots here in AZ. The TRD OR 4x4s are the rare birds

Just the tip?

Shockingly, yes. Normally with stealerships you get the whole shaft with no lube.

Not even the common courtesy of a reach around

I got my DCSB TRD sport 4x4, Manual, premium package, and tonneau cover for 34k before taxes. MSRP was 36910. So it looks like 3k off MSRP is a standard now a days.

I finally found a dealer in SoCal that was willing to come down below MSRP (hard to find around here right now) and was able to find my exact specced truck (with a few overpriced addons I didn't really want, but accepted). I used the AMEX T R U E C A R car buying service to find them and get the lowest price I've been able to find anywhere.

Double Cab, Short Bed
TRD Sport
Magnetic Gray
Tonneau Cover
Tow Package
Premium Tech Package w/JBL
D-Rings (didn't really want)
Exhaust tip (didn't want)
Floor mats and door sill protectors (wanted to buy my own cheaper)

MSRP: $36,354
Less discount: (1,458)
Plus doc fee: 80
Plus dealer trade fee: 250 (he wanted 500, I said no deal and we agreed on 250 for them to have somebody drive it from Chula Vista to Corona, roughly 100 miles)
Total before TTL: $35,226

Invoice: 34,069
MSRP: 36,354
My price: 35,226

So roughly $1,110 above invoice and $1,100 below MSRP. Definitely not the best deal to be had, but it's the best I've found and he located the only car in SoCal with the specs I wanted (I couldn't find it on any dealer websites, or on Cars.com). My other car was having more issues lately, so I had to expedite my purchase anyway. Definitely worth it to me to get the truck ASAP. Within 3 hours they had it up at the dealership last night, and delivered it to me in Orange today.

Some halfass pics I took real quick before I had to go take care of the baby (real one, not the truck ):

Who was your sales guy at Larry H Miller, I used to work there.
