How long did you have to wait for your 2021 factory order?

Unfortunately, you will not see a build date. You need to get build date updates from your dealer.

 

Good to know. I'll probably contact my salesperson in a few days to see if there's an estimated delivery date.

 

How about 7 days. I "ordered" or should I say txt'd/emailed every dealer in town to see if they had what I wanted on the lot or in transit, (Toyota's and dealer's websites are not accurate), OffRoad, Silver Sky, MT with Tech Package, lucked out and found a dealer who did and reserved it on 4/22 and picked up on 4/30.

 

Ordered on January 4. Dealer just notified me that it's coming into the Port of Houston on July 11 and I may get it about July 16. Ouch!

 

Dang, that's crazy. When was the build date?

 

Didn't ask. Didn't say. Wonder if its coming from Japan. Think if it was Mexico it would have come by rail.
Just talked to the dealer - Houston is the distribution center for a 5 state area. Even though I'm about 45 miles from the San Antonio plant where it's being built, it goes to Houston and then back to me.

 

Thought I would update you all on timeline. My truck was built on 4/8 and delivered to dealership in Ohio on 4/30.

 

Ordered 2/23, just arrived at the dealership 5/4. Will pick up in a couple of days. I'm beyond excited. My first Toyota, and my first new vehicle ever! 7 years of saving.

 

Do you happen to know when the build date was?

Also - grats!! Very exciting!

 

Build date 4/15

 

Ordered 04.01.21. Build date 06.09.21 ETA to dealer 06.28.21

 

Congrats! I also am purchasing my Tacoma new for the first time. Feels strange.

 

Well, after starting my search early February - and many salesman and several dealerships later, my ORAC is being built today - a Cinco de Mayo birthday for my made in Mexico, Japanese designed truck. Never thought I'd be saying those words, but after a lifetime of GM I've been beaten into submission. super excited to be getting this awesome truck ... hope it makes it to me quickly! (not likely though) - and yah pre-production VIN went dark around mid-day.

 

Tacoma is japan designed ?

 

are there any differences between the Mexico built and TX built trucks?

 

What color you going with?

 

Is this a trick question ?

 

army green

 

I believe initial design / first gen was developed in Califronia, believe 3rd gen is japan - not 100% certain - modern developments usually globally distributed these days - probably joinlty Japan and Toyota NA... anyone knows for sure chime in ...

 

personally, outside of a VIN digit I would guess not. automated equipment and release criteria likely standardized globally.
