At dealer today, just some observations

yeah over here is the same way. not even worth going to the dealer right now. the inventory is so bare bones its basically just the left over which nobody really wants. and even that is being bought up slowly lol. im waiting on a nightshade t4r. shoot, by the time i get my hands on it itll probably be a 2022 model .

 

It's a great time to but a Camry hybrid.

 

anybody want an outgoing sienna? lol

 

I have always been amazed that Longo Toyota has been able to sell so many Toyotas. I bought a new 1999 Tacoma from them years ago. Literally millions of people to sell to in the Los Angeles area and Longo has always sold them like crazy. I got it for a great price but you have to be willing to walk away to get it.

 

I've understood that production has decreased, but factory production has been shut down? If so, seems like prices will keep going up.

I dont think so, she really wanted duratracs on the truck but they came with wrangler kevlars, so i think they cut her a deal. I think she paid 47,500

 

Supply and Demand

Demand is hitting a high while supply is hitting a low, thus prices are going to be out the roof for even a basic SR trim model

 

I saw these two trucks heading north from the border on Monday loaded up.....Hopefully this is good news for those searching for a new taco

 

There are crazy deals here too. I'd move to a 2020 if:
a) crawl control worked
b) they moved my gear over to the new truck. I'm not interested in putting stock stuff back on and putting everything on a new truck.

 

wow, she definitely paid over msrp

 

I don't believe the fuel pump recall has been rolled out yet. At least that was the last I heard. Even if you are eligible for the recall, they wouldn't be going in and fixing anything yet.

 

Only 5 buses and no access cabs on my local dealers lot.

been seeing a similar trend. girlfriend bought a jeep about a month ago, looked at other makes too, but there just wasn't a ton of inventory out there.

 

Oddly, pretty much the opposite at my dealers lot. More access cabs about half of which were 4x2 and like 1 TRD off-road and 1 TRD sport. Both double cab short bed.

 

Gotta love it, you need to take KBB values with a grain of salt but my truck just valued private party for 100 bucks over what I actually paid for it a year ago

 

My dealerships owner says he has a hard time selling access cabs. He uses that for a excuse on a trade-in price when You try a trade with him. I tried trading him a 2015 chebby Colorado access cab I had built without the back seats. He tried using no back seats as a excuse for a low trade-in offer too. I took the truck to Indiana and got more than I wanted for it as trade on a 2016 Tacoma SR5.

 

Tie her up and put her in a closet. Blame it on somebody else and go get that deal.

 

I second this. Sometimes you just have to spread your wings and fly.

 

The dealership near me is selling the 2020 SR5 for over $45k lol. They only have 6 new tacomas in stock and its probably gonna be hard for them to sell (2 TRD Sport, 1 TRD Off-Road, 1 SR5, 1 Lifted SR5, 1 SR5 w/ XSP Package)

 

im seeing them readily available around my area (South Florida). however they're the less desirable colors/trim combo.
