    I ordered a 2017 Tacoma off road 4x4 double cab long bed auto inferno tech w JBL in early August. AZ dealer just told me via email that "the factory has put a halt on production of the long beds for some reason"

    No update as to when they will resume production.

    Anyone in a similar situation?
    Did anyone receive a 2017 off road 4x4 double cab long bed yet?

    My guess would be a parts supply issue....if it's even true at all.

    Probably to make buyers feel like supply is slim so they will be willing to fork over more dough.

    I picked up my 2017 SR5 4WD access cab (LB) on 8/31 and the dealer already had it on order with exactly what I wanted on it, and it was built on 8/1. I know your asking about DC long beds, but I just thought I would throw this out.

    Suspension, racks, tune, bed, lights. See build thread.
    I picked up a 2017 ORDC LB with tech package 10 days ago in AZ. Preparing for it to explode any minute now.

    I bet they just happen to have exactly what you want in a short bed on the lot.

    Yes I did. Also, they already had this truck "allocated" for them when I ordered it.

    Picked mine up today after a 4 month wait!

    Dealership salesman was telling me that Toyota told them trucks with sunroofs are tough to build and cutting into production time. They said they only build 3 trucks with sunroofs a day...
