    Paid $500 over invoice with Costco member discount. Had a silver 6-mt OR on order for 8 weeks but never got any straight answer from the dealer about when it would come. Saw this on the lot at another dealer and loved the color, leather and JBL stereo. I don't really have time to go off-roading nor would I want to risk damaging the truck with the rock crawling type stuff I saw on the reviews of the OR. For light / moderate off roading will this do ok?

    I did test drive an inferno trd-or auto with non jbl also. Color was too loud for a 40yo guy with 3 kids like me. Also felt the interior was so much nicer in the limited. Price difference wasn't really much of an issue as I make over 300k a year (not bragging just stating a fact). Funny thing the OR truck sold during my test drive to another guy!

    Love the truck and the auto trans is pretty good. I'm coming from and accord 6mt which I enjoyed shifting in when I was by myself but most of the time with kids in the back all the shifting with all the stop lights began to feel like such a chore. Before the accord I had a frontier pro-4x which I never used the locking diff or low gear in 4 years of owning it.
    While owning the manual accord I seemed to want to drive my wife's minivan all the time for the auto trans convenience. That being said I did feel a small twinge of regret when driving home for not going with the OR MT.

    Congrats! The blue was a second runner up for me. Totally feel you on the inferno; the older I get the less loud and bolder I seem to go. Inferno is a good color...just not for my daily vehicle.

    Enjoy your new truck and don't second guess it. :thumbsup:

    You're good, then. IMO, the ORs are great if you spend a LOT of time on the trail. For the every-once-in-a-while trips out there, your 4x4 is more than good enough.

    Didn't come with bed cover, prob would have been happy to have it if it did. Didn't come with tow package either which I was bummed about but honestly I don't tow anything.

    Came with a package that included mud flaps, tube steps, spare tire lock, and bed extender. Thank you for the replies.

    And yes we are hiring now.

    Wow that's a great deal! With all that stuff you probably paid under "invoice"!

    Costco deal $500 over invoice came out to 38,100 +ttl for mine. It was the appearance package it came with. Also the door sill and rubber mats were in it.
