    I think I'm about to bite the bullet on a new taco. Looking at a sr 4x4 dcsb 3.5L. The best quote so far is 30,900 from costco and I have been trying to ask around see if any dealers can beat it. Can anyone recommend a dealer?

    30.9 sounds pretty good for a dcsb 4x4

    Haha, no. There was a hill about 25 feet tall, that they considered a "hill". In my other District37 series a hill is basically the Matterhorn with nothing but boulders and certain injury if you fall, lol.

    Signed and I take delivery tomorrow on sr 4x4 dcsb :) question because I'm a 4x4 newbie.
    I'm planning to head up to big bear and was planning to pick up some snow cables. The dealer had me.sign a paper saying not to use chains on the 4x4
    my question
    1. can I use cables
    2. Which do you recommend
    3. Do I really need them with 4x4?

    The dealer tried to nickel and dime me with d-ring costs and locks lol. But was able to negotiate having those if they did 50% off all accessories except tonneau and it worked :)

    Just noticed that's the sr5 pic. I didn't take a pic of the Sr 4x4 But accessories were trd exhaust (I didn't want) floor mats I could live with, tonneau was going to buy diamondbak but this works. But overall I'm happy with the outcome going to stop my a credit union to see if I can get my financing down to 1to 1.9% got 2.9 from toyota

    You can't run chains up front, you can on the rear.

    Yes. Many times it will be 4x4 OK, but carry chains/cables. It is possible for things to be so bad in places that even 4x4 puts them on.

    Whatever you do, make sure to put a big pile of snow on the roof so on the way down the hill, everyone knows you got in deep
