If you were buying a New Taco

Ide get the 2020 just for the one powered seat and apple car play lol. But that's just me being picky

 

Get the 2018-19 and swap all you can from the 2020 and save lots of $$$!!!

 

Think It be wise to trade in 2017 offroad for 2020? Got auto kinda want to go to manual.....

 

I'm personally waiting for the 2020....depending on the pricing. I'm thinking that it won't be too much more,but then again who knows? Lol no one will know for sure about the pricing until they release it. If I just can't get behind it,the 19's will surely be discounted lol

 

Do you think Calvary blue will carry over to '20?

 

Software wise I don't. I suspect they'll be some new screens to utilize the cameras and stuff, and the HU is redesigned with physical buttons instead of the touchscreen "button" on the current HU, that's about all they've released at this point

 

Me too, old transmission was acting up was always told normal. Traded from a SR to SR it just seems smoother and the power bands seem better. I got to swap gear.

 

2020 TRD OR 6MT

 

I'd probably go with the 20, unless the deal on the 19 was significantly better. I'd love to have Carplay, but that can be addressed with a stereo upgrade. The power seats would be great but not worth a couple thousand dollars in price difference.

Good luck and Welcome!

 

Odd i also went from a 2016 to a 2019 (both SR5’s A/T) and they drive exactly the same to me.

 

Yes the MSRP of the 2020 will be more than a 2019. With that said the real savings is coming from the bigger discount you will be able to get on a 2019 as 2020 inventory comes in.

I doubt you will get much discount on a 2020 anytime soon. So figure, its probably close to a $5000 difference considering the mark down on the 2019 and the price increase on the 2020.

 

Its always smart to trade an auto to a manual.

 

Only thing I like about the 2020 is the all round camera system, which could be great for Off-Roading. The rest is crap cosmetics.

Buying a '19 when the 2020 comes out will save you approx $4,000. That was the difference when I got my '17 as the 18's where coming out.

Either way, smart move getting the O.R. over the Sport. Virtually the same price with more Off-Road options.

 

What year is your Spider? I have a 1981 in pretty decent condition (mostly stock). It is a lot of fun. I had a 1979 years ago. The guy I sold the 1979 to shipped it back to Italy. I don't know how many are left over here.

 

Did you recently suffer a head injury?? LOL

 

I have a 2018 that is 2 months old. It only has 2,700 miles at the moment. Love that car to death: it is light on its feet, sharp to turn, and has an eager 1.4T Abarth engine that roars like a lion!

 

IF I were buying again Id buy the least equipped one I could live with, THEN Id do the mods I wanted.

 

The seats in my Pro are really nice. Are the other seats different?

 

Get the 2020, CarPlay and a power seat is worth it.

 

Ah, a little different. Nice Spider! Yes, my son was just looking at one of those. I love my 1981, but it isn't my primary driver. I had the interior done and probably going to paint it soon.
