    Hi all :wave:, just joining the site after many months of research on my future truck. Tacoma World is an awesome resource and I'm glad to finally have the opportunity to contribute.
    I'm from the Columbus area and will be going to see Dean at Toyoya West in the next couple months (I've heard many good things about dealing with him). Here's the shopping list:
    • '17 TRD OR DCSB 4x4
    • Prem & Tech package w/ JBL
    • Tow package
    • Tonneau cover
    • Inferno
    I'm curious if anyone here has been to Toyota West in Columbus and how the experience was. My coworker just bought a '17 Tundra TRD Pro there and he had a pleasant experience. Can't wait to see that truck in my garage! I'll get some pics right away and I'm sure some upgrades will be along eventually. Cheers everyone, and GO BUCKS! :cheers:

    Jan 10th update: Heard from Dean the truck has completed assembly and will soon be on its way to Columbus! I now know the VIN and the ETA is 1-26, Hallelujah!
    Here's what was specifically ordered, $2,222 off sticker

    Jan 20th update: After threatening to finance elsewhere, I've discovered Toyota wants to play ball so now we're at $3000 off sticker going through their financing. The truck is currently sitting in Chicago with an ETA of Monday or Tuesday. I'm anxious to get her home and get to customizing!

    No experience with Toyota West. All my dealings are with Byers Toyota in Delaware. Been very happy with the sale and the service.

    I expect I'll visit Byers as well, maybe just to compare notes. Toyota West is just nice and close to my place.

    Thanks man! I'll be updating y'all as the buying process begins and I can get some pictures put up.

    Finally made it over to the dealership to talk to Dean and work out the details. The truck is on order with an ETA in about 8 weeks. Here's the test fit in my garage :p It'll be somewhat of a work truck so LB is ideal for all my tools.
