My 2017 Turd and Screwed by Toyota!

Not in the northeast my third gen I just bought was the most I got off sticker was 39232 got it for 36,743 after gap insurance refund / trade in

 

Not a comparable full size.. nope fake news!!!

 

For $40K plus a trade? You could get an F150 that's fairly well equipped for that. Or a Tundra.

 

He didn't say 40k plus trade, he said close to 40k.. so 39 and change. Didn't see anything About a trade in. you can't get a full size in comparable trim level for 39.. can't do it!(Ross Perot voice)


Edit, I see he traded a 10 year old frontier with 150k that had been in a few crashes.. so how much would that have been on free market? Idk.. just trying to make the dude feel a little better

 

It's a damn shame!!! I have enjoyed the forum the last day without the BS, and the fan club kissing his ass.

 

He said $40K plus he traded a Frontier in. You can get a full size that is pretty close for around $43-44.

 

Gave me Kelly blue book for my truck which was how much I owed anyway that zeroed out my trade , got the new truck 3,000 with 10 yr 100,000 warranty , gap , top package roadside stuff and dent - paint zero deductible thought it was good deal ... I looked at getting f150 eco but cheapest new I found was 40000 with 10,000 sticker but not a lot of options pretty basic truck my 2012 tundra had more options on it

 

I just built one of those F-150 XLT's on Ford's site with a 302A package and it was about $43,900. Seemed pretty well equipped to me.

 

Most of the "old schools truck guys" that own a second gen taco
Say they hate technology and the new body style because
#1 The are jealous, or
#2 they can't afford a new truck right now, or
#3 they are kicking their head because they didn't wait another year or two for the 3rd gen to come out and now they are stuck with a dated looking truck, or
#4 all of the above.
Btw who hates technology?
And iits not like the new taco is a space ship !!
It has a very basic "technology " comparing to a lot of new trucks out there right now .

 

I would rather have my nuts crushed in a vise than drive a Ford.

 

They are closer to 45k I looked, that's before tax etc.. maybe he was otd for 40. At any rate, size vs price is only a piece of the pie. Just because it's bigger doesn't mean it's a better deal. People, like me want mid size

 

Sure, but just saying.

 

Sure but for what he's complaining about...there's not much other choice.

 

My point is, because it's "bigger" it's not a "better" deal.

Makes no sense... we are not buying by the pound here

 

Yeah even with them discounting full size pickups $10-13k off sticker a comparable full size Ram big horn 4WD crew cab with all the same options cost $38-39k in my area before taxes and fees. I paid $34,830 for my TRD off road and $36k out the door. My lease only had $300 worth of equity so that was pretty much a wash.

Yes the Ram big horn only costed $4k more but I didn't want a full size and an extra $4k means I would had to put an extra $4k down or have a truck payment $64 higher.

 

The tundra is the best

I went to gibbons ford which is rated top ford dealer in my area a fx4 3.5 eco was listed 54k 44 sale price without nav , leather , no power back window , no bed liner , I could buy a tundra limitd for 44,000 1/2 mile down the road at Scranton toyota fully loaded for same price and Is a better truck

 

I like the tacomas went from tundra back to Tacoma need a truck that gets more than 13 mpg , dont need full size plus my brother has 2500 ram with Cummins if I need to haul something big Ill use that

 

Agreed, ford is more sneaky with addons.. how do they not have bed liner standard?

 

I didn't bother asking That's all I needed to see and made my decision to stay with toyota and bought my Tacoma

 

I was looking at the Tundra, but went with the Tacoma. Now I'm having second thoughts. The 3rd gen Tacoma is a nice truck on paper, but the execution has been flawed, to say the least. I hate not being able to trust my vehicle, never experienced that with a Toyota before.
