    Hi Tacoma World,

    Great helpful forum, I'm ready to buy and would appreciate any comments, input or feedback:

    Tacoma Access Cab Longbed
    TRD OffRoad 4x4 V6 Auto
    7562 - TRD OFF ROAD ACCESS CAB 4X4 V6 AUTO LB........ $ 31230 | $ 33310 * +337/+360
    Colour: Quicksand exterior, black cloth interior

    Is it normal for a dealer to take 2-3 weeks to get pricing? My quote was in the $36XXX range.

    According to the 3rd gen master list Quicksand isn't available with a black interior. Would my dealer have access to other options not listed?

    Tacoma in TX

    Welcome to TW! It seems unusual to me that a dealer would take 2-3 weeks to get pricing. Maybe 2017 model pricing isn't out yet?

    Look for a different dealer. You could get a double cab 4x4 for cheaper than that.

    Thank you for the warm welcome!

    I tried two other dealers first, neither would work with me (wouldn't respond to emails, didn't have the vehicle when I went to my appointment).

    Not looking at the double cab so it's kind of moot.

    Welcome! When I bought my Tacoma I went online and got price quotes, took them to surrounding dealers until one said they would match the quote.
