    Corvette buyers pay to be able to pick it up. They don’t actually pick it up from the factory, the Corvette museum acts as the dealer. This is also a $990 service

    I dont think the Tacomas are assembled stateside anymore - that would be a trip to Mexico. Roughly 2021 model years were the last year assembled in San Antonio.

    A new Vette sounds a lot more exciting than a new Taco

    If you need a special ceremony and vehicular baby shower for your new vehicle,,,. There’s a good chance your mother and father didn’t give you enough attention as a child.

    I think picking up a premium sports car at a curated “factory” experience where they have a museum with all sorts of cool cars is a bit of a different experience than showing up at a dusty factory south of the border.

    Ask @Superdave1.0 . A challenge was issued and accepted. However, cool old post worth bringing forward. I think it would be rad to head down to Tijuana to pick up my new Taco. Maybe run the Baja 1000 on my way home to break in the shocks.

    maybe I am a little extra gruff today- the gal across the street just got done hosting her daughter's new puppy's baby shower.
    No, this is not a joke. Oh well, I guess the more I think about it, the more alike we are,,, as I like dogs more than most humans :D
