Good deal or not? Back at it with the search for a 2023 6 speed manual

Last dealer wanted $4k above MSRP. Nope. So I’ve been perusing new and used deals. Stumbled onto this one, would love to know your thoughts on if it’s a good price or not.

Being sold right at MSRP.. $42.8K

2023 Gray TRD Sport
6 speed manual
Tech package
TRD package
Chrome exhaust tip
Black badging
Bed step
Predator side steps

I put a deposit on it to reserve it because these things go fast.

Also looking at a used 2022 TRD Off Road 6 speed manual with 10k miles. This one has the premium package with heated leather seats + sunroof. It’s in a different state but I’d be willing to travel to it. For sale for $39.9K

 

Here’s a gray Sport manual for $1,000 off MSRP with LED headlights with a small dealer fee.

TRD OR can be had for upwards of $2,000 off. You didn’t say where you live so could be a plane ride.

 

There’s definitely manual 3rd gens to be had at or below msrp.
Just have to stay on all the major sites and be ready when a deal pops up, and be willing to travel or pay to have it shipped.

 

That’s a good deal, but I found out why it’s almost $1500 cheaper than the truck I’m looking at. Mine comes with the technology package.. blind spot and parking sonar - $800 value. Mine also comes with the bed lighting ($149), all weather mat package ($258), bed step ($300), cast aluminum running boards ($950) and chrome exhaust tip ($105.) All that stuff would put this truck closer to $43k. No I don’t need **all** of that but it’s nice to have, and explains why mine is $1500 more than that one.
I didn’t see many options on this truck other than the LED lighting.

Nice find though and thanks for looking it up!

I’m in the DC area.

 

other than the blind spot monitoring and parking sonar, everything else could easily be added for fractions of what they charge, even if you restrict yourself to oem-only parts and installation. just need to be willing to shop around a little.
