Long day at the dealership...

Well I decided it was time to trade in the 2008 TRD that has given me sooo much joy. I headed into the local dealership and started the process everyone just loves to hate. After 3hrs of back and forth they finally came to me with some numbers I could deal with on a new vehicle...

It appears I am heading into my 4th Taco (x1 gen one, x3 gen two) and this time I am doing it the way I want all the way. I located a 2012, doublecab 4x4 6speed in Silver. I only added the SR5 + Tow package and told them I am keeping my rims/tire combo.

I take delivery one they get it from the port on Feb 10th or so...

Best part of the night, Sticker $31,524 down to $26,020 after all was said and done ;-)

Time to take all my goodies off too!

Damn I love these trucks

 

Bravo.

 

well played sir

 

Nice!

Good deal.

 

Crazy how much prices differ from state to state. TX and NMare proud of their trucks. That truck would be mid 30 to 40k in this region.

 

Sticker was only $30,469. Are you saying that Tacos sell for up to 10K OVER MSRP in TX and NM?

 

hi, just wondering was ur 26K before or after TTL, thanks

 

Seems like an Excellent price.

 

congrats!

 

Holding out to see what the 2013 look like but did find these ... Jim

 

I wish it was with but that is prior to TTL

 

u still got a good deal, i just wanted to make sure, cause every once in a while, somebody will say some crazy deal, and if that was the case, i'm local, i'd have to go trade mine in too, congrats on ur new truck

 

Thank you, this will be the first 4x4 I have ever owned. I would swear by the locking rear until getting stuck in a washout in Land O Lakes, since then I have been searching and waiting to make my move.

I have been using same guy, Frank at Wesley Chapel Toyota for the last 2 purchases I made. I would give that guy my business in a heartbeat. The last time around, when I got my used TRD, I went to Frank first and he told me the numbers were not workable without wasting my time. I appreciate honesty in the business like that. Sure enough this time around he went to the mat and the sales boss refused to lose a deal last night.

Either way I am very excited for the truck to come in, hopefully before next weekend!

 

oh good ole wesley chapel toyota, i went there when i was looking for a truck about 5 months ago, the best quote i got was at courtesy toyota in brandon, and I emailed wesley chapel the quote, and he told me to go buy it at courtesy, and the best part was he said he should go buy it, bring it back to his dealer and make some money off it.

 

Well I was able to take delivery last night after they picked the truck up from another dealership. I ended up saving almost $6000 off the asking price and I could not be more thrilled. The 2012 is well more advanced than my 2008 was and the manual is great (even played in traffic a while).

Here she sits before I start the mods this afternoon

 

damn! 31k was original askign price?

Im working with my dealer now and a 12' dcsb trd sport is 31k with a few options added on is asking price

either way, looks good

 

nice truck

 

What happened to keeping your wheels and tires?

 

Yeah. 4x4, DC SR5 with tow and floor mats.

Thank you

 

Man you guys get these trucks cheap
