    Nothing yet... Bought it with TWO miles on it!!!
    I was looking at the same setup, but went with a long bed instead...
    I bought through Costco, so not much haggling which was nice. I went with the wife, and she got incredibly bored.
    Be prepared to stay for a while!!

    I figured that I would be there for a while. This is also my first new vehicle purchase.

    Don't pay more than invoice... Got mine through Costco Auto program and paid $700.00 below invoice including destination charge and adm. fees!

    I did the same thing! Or I should say am doing it tomorrow... What state did you order it in? I'm in Jersey and have to drive to PA to get this deal... its only 51 miles from my house so not really a long way... but not close... Costco gave me the best price by $1,800 under what any body else could do!

    You'll likely have to wait a while. My order got turned down by Toyota at mid month. I'll know if it gets approved this round by the 5th. DC/OR/MT

    As the first page here will show...they have not proven to be the most reliable new vehicle out there. You may find yourself at the dealer many times, for issues they will tell you are "normal." I ordered 2 months ago and am about to back out if the wife okays it.

    I've read through the posts. Trans fluid a quart low. Rear end howl. U bolts not torqued to spec. Wind noise. Etc.

    Wow... hope that does not happen to me... I want the TRD OR LB 4X4 AT with Tow and Tec package with JBL and I don't want a short bed which is what most of them are... I plan on sleeping in the bed and I am 6 foot so the short bed is a no go for me!

    I am in AZ. To my knowledge, you can't haggle from Costco's price. They audit every sale to ensure proper procedures were followed. Good luck and congrats on the new truck! My Taco was my first new truck, and I have LOVED it!!! 3300 miles and counting!!

    From what I've gathered from the salesman ,it's the M/T that's slowing down my order. He stated "only six M/T OR 's came out of Texas at mid month. All spoken for. It seems M/T Sports are more common.

    The salespersin said said sport and off road's are the same price. I don't understand how because of the MTS and rear locker.

    @Zeus0311 I live right down the road from you in Lynchburg. I bought my '15 in SC this time last year and used TrueValue. It was the best way I've ever purchased a car. Basically, you put in your zip code, and dealerships will compete for your business. You can buy from whoever offers the best price on the truck you want. Check it out! Should work just as well, but I know the supply isn't as high as they were in a '15, but you can still expect the cheapest pricing.

    Not sure why you're going tomorrow before you've done your research.

    But good luck.

    I would negotiate with the dealership by email first. Don't bother with going in until your deal is in place. You should build your truck with the options that you want and ask for the invoice price.
