    It certainly did .

    I was wondering where the first mention of hostages came from.

    regardless I’m pretty excited to get the truck. I haven’t had any luck in the last month since I actually had a deposit down for a Colorado trail boss which was “sold” as a custom order and no one told me. I didn’t have to put anything down on this truck, just a credit app. So fingers crossed it goes well and I get it in two weeks. Trading in my 2019 Big Horn.

    It was, but obviously I had to go to the various dealerships. They all offered different pricing whether it be MSRP or anywhere from $500 to $4500 over for the off road. It was another high volume dealer who offered me the best for the trade in which was the best deal by a pretty wide margin. All they required was a credit app and license, no deposit.

    Curious if your Ram has a bunch of miles, that seems low for a Big Horn unless it's a classic maybe. Did you try Carvana, Vroom, Givemethevin, etc to see if you may be able to net out a higher number selling outright (even if your state offers a sales tax credit)?

    It’s got 74300 on it. It’s a big horn quad cab. Has heated seats , front and rear parking assist, stuff like that. To be honest carvana offered $20k. Vroom was at just around $27000. The tax incentive helped on the deal for sure, it’s 8.63%. One specific dealer would not budge over $24000 they said it was a stretch.

    Westbury Toyota, but also check with Atlantic Toyota. They don’t charge a markup.

    No, 4wd. I’ll be getting over 26k for the trade on it once the truck is ready for pick up.

    Better, plus no tax on that 26K which is always sweet.

    Still surprised at that number, I'd bet they ask 34K for it.

    Best offer I got was from Vroom for just shy of 27k but then obviously lose the tax incentives

    A few, mainly added skids. I like leaving the suspension alone. I drive forest service dirt roafs in the desert west extremely extremely too fast. Toyota nailed this suspension going 65 across desert terrain. Changing it is dumb unless you have a specific need like crawling or mud.

    No you can't. Tw members have run this math over and over. Buying an OR to turn into a PRO is very costly and you still need to find and offroad with the correct packages to get close. You can buy a OR and make it better then a PRO for 10k, but you can't "make it a pro"

    OP, do they have an actual vin number for a PRO being built? This late in the game if they have no temporary vin, they don't have a Pro. The factory must be shutting down anyday now for the reconfigure to the g4

    Most pros out the door price is $52k at msrp. Mine was $41k. I have made my off-road better and more capable than the pro for less money and it’s still cheaper than the overall cost of the pro. Lol you people crack me up.

    Yes but it’s sold. They all go for around $7k to $10k over MSRP. Off road it is.

    I figured it would be extremely hard to even find a Pro but even if you did then most of them want to tack on the " market adjustment". I refused to do business til I found one that didn't. My buddy just bought an off road last Saturday and came by last night. You will like it! The off road is set up nice, I really liked his truck. I went up to a 265 75 16 tire yesterday , he took my take offs with him while he was here. Lol, he came out good!

    For the truck I picked to buy, I downloaded that Toyota app and got an update today that the “trucks doors are unlocked” and it now shows an odometer reading. Could it have been delivered? I’d assume if it was still would be a few days to install the dealer options.
