What are you paying for your 2021 Tacoma? (price thread)

Brand new member here. Last week I picked up a 2021 Army Green, TRD sport, 6ft bed, pretty much loaded w/4500 miles on it. I found the window sticker and turns out I paid $100 under the MSRP ($47,100) on the truck. I remember a time when picking up a one year old vehicle was the sweet spot of price reduction while maintaining warranty and only being exposed to a single Illinois winter. I've just realized I joined the "get off my lawn" club.

 

Well, all you can do is just enjoy the truck now. Either that or regret it, might as well enjoy it!

 

What is "Premium Paint Charge"? At least your "Black Emblem Overlay" is more reasonable, in my area the Blackout Package is 399

 

Wind Chill Pearl. 3 stage paint vs single stage for Super White and no flaking off issues.
My BO package did not include the black tailgate letters or black tailpipe, so I picked up a $25 set from Amazon, then this cold front moved it, so letters are still in the box. Got the Yota black chrome tailpipe for $50-ish and put it on myself.
Dealer got me for $3,990 for TRD skid plate, window tint, ceramic coating and bed extender. Toyota family discount was $3900-ish, so I called it a wash.

"I believe 2020 they changed super white to 2 stage due to flaking issue. I have 2021 super white and there is a slight color difference compared to my neighbors 2018 superwhite".

^^^^^^^^^
I find this interesting. Any painting experts out there? Having a 2020 Super White, August production date can anyone else confirm this? It would be nice to know that Toyota quietly changed the Super White painting process to a 2 step.

 

I’m interested to know also...

 

Traded a 2017 SR5 long bed v6 4x4 with 15,000 miles in June 2021 for a 2021 SR5 short bed v6 no 4x4 and they gave me a check for 1699.00...traded that this month for a 2022 with same configuration but had the technology package with BSM and Cross traffic out the door for 1495.00

 

By the way paid sticker 36,520

 

Did you buy this in Peoria? I think I test drove this exact vehicle. Ended up picking up a 2022 TRD sport over in Bloomington a couple days later.

 

Good point. In the southeast, those port options can be huge. Might be a clout thing.

 

No way, lol, I guess anything is possible in this environment

 

I was recently at an out of town toyota dealer in the Dallas area, $5K markups across the board! Ironically, most of the trucks are presold at that dealer.

 

absolutely. Funny thing is I live over in Bloomington but couldn't find what I wanted in town.

 

Welcome to TW - the land of a hundred opinions! The 4500 miles on the odometer are insignificant compared to how long this truck will run. I wouldn't worry, just enjoy your ride!

 

Thanks and I will enjoy. Plus after seeing everything going on with car prices I think I did “ok”, I think it’s the fact that we aren’t accustomed to paying msrp but that’s the new normal. Plus really like the over priced add ons.

 

I have an allocation order on a '22 TRD Sport, access, manual. Got my local dlr down to Sticker, (low optioned as possible), as they generally get $5K over for most everything. Thankful to be friends wt the owners daughter. It's a waiting game now..

 

Trying secure a Double Cab, SB. Auto. TRD ORP. LED Headlight Package. Lunar Rock.

Dealer 1: $2k over MSRP, no timeline
Dealer 2: No mark up. 1 year out...

These dealers are located in Colorado. Insane.
