Just bought my new 2017 Tacoma TRD Sport DCSB

Hi all,

Just signed up with an account but have been following this site for weeks. Just bought my new Tacoma and I could not be more pleased. Wanted to share with you how I bought and probably help some of you save some money if your in the market of buying a new or used car.

I used a car broker and I could not have been more happy. I highly recommend these guys....Authority Auto. I worked with Richard and he was great. They are based in CA but they will work out of any state. I live in NV.

I found them from a YouTube video I saw while researching how to get the best deal. They got me a better deal and all I did was tell them what I wanted. Presto....delivered right to my door. Could not be happier. YouTube link below is the one I saw.

Hope this helps.

FYI put Fuel 18 inch rims (Hostage) with Toyo Open Country AT2 275/70/18 tires

 

Pretty truck. Needs a chin-ectomy though.

gotta say though, reading your post had me wondering if you were a shill for the company mentioned... really a "Walks like a duck, Quacks like a duck" thing when a brand new user posts up about some service or company they used. Just saying that as a FYI.

Anyway, welcome.

 

^You're right....

Re-reading the OP has me physically sick to my stomach. There is only so much sales pitch I can take

 

Post your deal

 

Nice looking truck .. good luck and congrats.

Loose the chin strap... not a fan of those side steps either but to each there own, I know the dealerships like them = curb appeal and mall crawl.

 

Lol I guess it was a little overkill. It was the day I got my truck so some of that could have spilled over. Just my experience, do as u will.

As far as negotiating, my time is valuable and I often work weekends. After going back and forth with one dealer one weekwnd and seeing the video I used them and let him wheel and deal. I make more in a weekend shift than what it cost to pay them. Not about "growing a pair" but time management.

Work in process....might clean up the chin issue. Maybe throw on a bull bar.

 

You said a "used car broker". Is that 2017 used? Def post your deal? Also is there a lift on that thing or just the 18s? Any rubbing if no lift

Thx!

 

How's it work with their fee? Do u pay up front, or do u pay after they let u know what the actual deal is??

 

Ill post by deal when I get home...

You can pay $800 ($200 deposit, rest when u get the truck)

or

Negotiate a deal and have them go in and see if they can improve your deal. If they can you split the difference.

I used a broker, not "used car broker". It was a new 2017.

Bilsteins 5100 max lift with Bilsteins and aal in back. Had the dealer install them for $2700 to keep warranty. No rub.

 

Why do I feel like ive seen you driving it in north central phoenix today. Nevermind says your from Nevada. Must be a look alike

 

Ouch... ^^^ that was highway robbery, just sayin.. I'm not going to post how much my suspension was so as to NOT butt hurt the OP.

They don't call them STEALerships for nuthin.. but the truck look great and the OP is happy - nuff said.

 

All that money the broker "saved" you, and you gave it right back to the dealership !

 

Sorry, that included the Fuel rims and Toyo tires....
