    The dealer offered to overpay me for my truck. I turned down the offer because if I had sold it, i'd just buy another one of the same exact model. I love this damn truck, you can't have it! Has anyone else had this happen to them?

    Everytime I went for my free oil changes they would send someone out and try to get me to trade up. Never got far enough to discuss price but that’s what they do. If they see you have equity they will be all over you.

    Was it one of those letters from the dealer things, or them trying to convince you to do a trade-in?

    That might be true, but a dealer is never gonna over pay to get someone's vehicle

    They always ask me if I want to trade mine in...my answer is always, “Sure. Trade you straight across for a brand new TRD Pro 4Runner.”

    I thought the dealer "overpaid" for my truck when I traded it in, but that doesn't mean I made money lol.

    This is the 3rd gen forum.
