The price of my 2021 Toyota Tacoma TRD 4x4 Off Road is Insane!

If you're not lazy about buying your Tacoma, you can still find a deal, but not in your crowded metropolis where the shortages are evident. I just flew 800 miles from Orange County, CA to a rural dealer to pick up my 2021 4x4 TRD Offroad. With taxes and fees I paid the sticker price out the door. That computes to 10% below MSRP for the truck alone, and about $3,000 less than any deal I was offered in busy SoCal. After paying $500 for my flight ticket and gas to drive home, I saved $2,500 and had a nice drive home exploring parts of the country I've not seen before. And to top it off, my loan's APR is 2.29% for 60 mo, compared to 2.9% offered in OC. Seriously, why would you not want to save money and enjoy a nice drive to break in your vehicle?

Even on the car I bought! I told the manager straight forward. No way I'm buying this car for that. It can wait. A shortage in Tacoma's? Sounds like bull$hit. It's not a TRD PRO. If you absolutely didn't have to get it. I would have played the waiting game. They will call you back and negotiate. I wish that everybody would just do the same thing. But people are inpatient. There is about a 3 to 4k mark up on that 40k. So 38 would have been fair. I'm buying the 2022 tundra later on. Even possibly used.

Problem with long loan periods such as 7 years is that everyone says they’ll pay it off before hand but most do not and you end up paying more for the car in interest.

It gets expensive. I still want the side step-bars.

[@sombra6153]

I bought a 21 double cab TRD sport 4x4 w/ 5ft bed. Didn’t pay any markup and managed to get out the door, w/sales tax for 40k. Dealer didn’t really want to deal but didn’t try to jam me with stuff I didn’t want. I’m not unhappy with my deal as I wanted a new tacoma

[@Callmebigwilly]

In California they charge and arm and leg for trucks compared to most other states. For the Toyota trucks especially the Tundra/Tacoma TRD Pros expect an additional dealer markup of 5-10k. So 60-65K for these trucks is common.

[@JDMJACOB1]

Thanks for being so straight forward! What do you do for a living?

[@jeffmacey6482]

In 2018 I bought a Toyota Tacoma Sr 4 x 4 2.7i have pretty low miles about 36,000 I can't believe what the dealer is willing to give me tried buying it when I took it and for an oil change.

Props for being transparent. Hopefully this video will be seen by other people as what NOT to do, not for justification to do it too. Using other people's money is only good if it's an investment that goes UP! Instead of using leverage to boost your financial position, you willing placed yourself in a financial prison for 7 years. Now the best "investment" you can make is paying down your debt as fast as possible so you don't end up paying over $50,000 (plus whatever your down payment and/or trade-in was) for a V6 truck built in Mexico.

[@PaulKamanJr]

I just found your channel and like your content and transparency. Thank you for sharing this information, I'm looking to purchase the same Tacoma model you just purchased (TRD Off Road Long Bed). I live in Arizona so I'm hoping to pay less without those California fees.

[@duwaynehoun8153]

Bro watched your I got screwed video just want to tell you your trailer wiring is right next to the rear liscence plate. You actually should both a 7 way connector and a 4 way

[@GTContent]

I'm referring to the trailer brake connector by the driver's side footwell.

[@jupark5066]

For some reason, CA Toyota dealers do not usually negotiate 4Runner or tacoma TRD models. They say too popular and hard to find and usually up the price too.

[@hussainsvt9853]

Because of all of the scam fees. I bought use Taco. Mine is 2nd gen and I pain 12k upfront done deal. No BS.

[@ericpham9825]

Lol I got the same car model and everything. I’m pay out of the door was 38400 with 2.6 APR . What are you talking about? Your video make me so proud of myself.

[@terrywbreedlove]

That is why I still have my 2014 Tacoma TRD Off Road with 4 liter engine and 6 speed manual. They just don’t build them any better and the new cost is sky high. Cost new then was $33,900 back then. I bought it through the Toyota finance and can’t remember the interest. Seems it was 4% something.

[@kd4kzz]

Got to shop around. 4500 off sticker on my new 4Runner last week. Use a credit union for car purchases. Did a 60 month @2%.

[@markcollins3732]

Paid MSRP for my 2021 tundra trd pro. Took 2 days to find. Found 3 more while waiting on my deal to workout.

[@brentfox9805]

Thanks, just last week I had the same experience with a local dealer as you. Tacomas we’re going fast and I payed just about the same as you.

[@Outpolecat5278]

Thank you for being honest, I appreciate it. I'm wanting to get one of these in the next few months but I don't think it's gonna be easy, rip.

[@stevemace1725]

My 2021 trd or was marked down to 36,500 400 doc fee 295 undercoating then title registration plates add to that.paid 650 for lifetime oil change to.

[@tein7270]

2018 Trd offroad, cement, premium package with predator tube step. for 41k OTD... wisconsin. Just got done paying it off last week finally!!! Here comes the mods!!!

[@tubeyouR305]

You were lucky to get that 6ft bed on an Off-road and not pay that $3,000 markup. I live in Cali too... the dealer refused to negotiate or take off the $3k on the same TRD 6ft model. Said they knew they would sell it with the markup, and didn’t care. I ended up with 2021 Limited Nightshade loaded with options. Negotiated price down a bit and received another $1,000 in incentives. I did the 5yrs @ 1.90% Then I installed the TRD performance exhaust, TRD skid plate, TRD shift knob, S&B Cold Air intake, and Predator rails myself. I will add custom tires, shocks and springs much later down the road.

[@jcjohnson0]

The only discount dealership allows is the Costco auto program discount. I just bought my 2021 TRD off road 6 ft bed. I got $1200 Costco discount. Plus $500 Toyota rebate and $500 college grad rebate.

[@herbertsungahid]

Your decision really makes sense. Better to have extra money in the pocket than be tied up on a car payment that we know the car will just depreciate overtime.

[@liko098]

Love this video because you put how much you paid. First of all damn... The truck looks amazing, but holy moly are cars so expensive. A little mini truck be over $40k is just insane.

[@carlospina6604]

"holy molly" you are absolutely correct, cars are insanely expensive. This is called "INFLATION". We are heading into it for sure. So it's time to invest in consumables that can be liquidated if you need to. A car should not be considered an investment because it is a liability usually and loses value rapidly.... except when you buy a Tacoma, Land Cruiser, 4Runner in that direction. You have to drive something anyway. You might as well drive it in style and something that has a bit better chance riding that inflation wave than a VW or a Ford or worse, a Hyundai.

[@liko098]

@@carlospina6604 I know what inflation is, but the way cars have gone up on prices is just insane. Everything has gone up, but like cars have dramatically gone up in a very high level that is insane. Like a Tacoma $45k MSRP is just plain insane. Cars were more affordable before now its getting impossible to buy a new car.

[@wyldsmurf2889]

Thanks for sharing this information it was helpful, I have done 3 to 5 year loans but refinance to a linger term once I am ahead of depreciation mostly I pick the term before a large apr jump

[@VietLe-gy3et]

It's great to know that I've got some options. Planning on getting a 2021 4runner trd premium and think of doing a 6 years loan. I might consider the 7 years loan. I won't know for sure until I go check it out next weekend. If I decide to get it, most likely it'll be a 6 years loan. And I also have really good credit score, so I'm the apr should be in those area.
