Toyota Stout: All-New $20K Pickup Truck

[@robbor3198]

20K price range would be a prime move. Especially with how the economy is shaping.

[@chaumander9378]

There is no way dealers will sell for 20s. Look at the Mavericks as an example.

[@robbor3198]

@Chaumander MSRP for the Maverick is around 22.5K base model. Of course it's going to depend on your location you could be looking at 25k base.

[@chaumander9378]

@@robbor3198 Not in today's market. Marvericks arent going by for MSRP.

[@robbor3198]

@Chaumander Like I said it'll depend on your location. I am in Hawaii and we have some of the highest prices for vehicles and a friend of a friend bought a Maverick for 27k. Judging by that, I would assume other locations would cost less.

[@zlonewolf]

@Rob bor 27k is 25% above MSRP. Look up car max, kbb, local dealer's websites, etc. Dealerships are having mavericks at 35k a full 40% above MSRP. And thats generous. Other more expensive cars and trucks in more premium brands are same. Its a "free market". Remember that has not changed.

I could see this being 30-40k with msrp markup.

[@itsyaboia-dub1120]

Only because people CHOOSE to pay those higher prices. If people held their ground and walked away from bad deals, things would change. But until then, dealers will continue to push the boundaries until the market breaks which is upon us.

[@sdelcegno]

@@macm6462 exactly i told him I'm going to be talking to other dealers because I won't pay over msrp which he was saying they charge 3k over. He's like if you commit today with a deposit I'll sell it to you for msrp. I was like deal.

[@Duken4evr29]

30 years ago, stuff got built and moved before trucks became 4 door luxury monsters with 1,000 pound feet of torque. Campers didn't need 20,000 pound trailers to get away from it all. We have bloated ourselves into truck and RV oblivion. It is good to see a segment of the market coming to it's senses.

[@gouldbowman]

Toyota... wanna really do something amazing? Make a full size truck, give it power and towing, and 4x4, but... here's the difference... DON'T MAKE IT A LUXURY TRUCK. And sell it for 40k. You'll win the market overnight.

Dude I totally agree. Everytime I bring up the stupidity in the Tundra I get all the fan boys riled up and rushing to defend it. I absolutely hate the Tundra and every generation of engine it has had. None of them were powerful, produced good fuel economy, were easy to work on, reliability was questionable, payload is almost always the worst out of the lineup, and rust has always been an issue with them. I wish they would've sold their 70 series in the US like they do in Australia but they won't sell us their cool stuff.

I remember buying my brand new Toyota 4x4 truck back in 1983. It was fully loaded, had the SR5 package, chrome package, and also an aftermarket fiberglass camper shell. It was just barely under $14,000 out the door, including tax, license and registration fees. Boy, those were the days.

[@leechburglights]

Be careful saying a new car cost $14k in the 80s. People today think that everything was cheaper back then.🤣 Like, why didn't you buy 2 for that price 🤷‍♂. But seriously, yes you did get more for your money. Vehicles in the 70-90's had a bit more value. Today's inflation doesn't add any value, just a higher price tag.

[@kross1261]

[@TheNynax]

​@@kross1261 Well, inflation has increased costs but we can't forget that wages have not increased at the same rate. The average worker had a lot more disposable income back then compared to the average worker today.

The whole thing manufacturers miss is that it's not cost alone that people don't like about full size. A smaller, more manageable (easier to park & maneuver) truck is more enjoyable to drive for many people. Not all of us are over 6' 250 lbs. Average male height in U.S. is 5'9" .

[@javadog6288]

The conventional full size trucks get poor fuel mileage, and everything on them costs more. For example, premium tires will run you well over $200 each plus installation, and maybe you'll need new TPMS sensors at $65 a pop times four or five. Then there are the outrageous insurance premiums you get to pay for your $50 K truck.

[@jeffer1101]

Compact trucks were relatively common in the 80s and 90s, until most of them were phased out and everything kept growing in size (and SUVs/Crossovers starting replacing sedans). Trucks like the original Ford Ranger and Chevy S-10/GMC S-15 were often found as fleet vehicles for delivery companies or for people who just wanted a cheap utility car, since you could buy those for $12,000. They weren't high tech, fast or powerful, but were affordable, simple transportation that was also pretty reliable and easy to run.

[@cactusjackNV]

More than relatively, they WERE common. In fact there was no such thing as a luxury pickup. Even the F-150 was basically a 2 door pickup. But you pretty much hit the nail on the head.

[@handytbutler7380]

ive been in the car business for 20 years and it made absolutely no sense for manufacturers to stop making small trucks like the s10 , ranger and original tacoma. Alot of people love the small trucks to be able to reach into the bed , carry mulch, pool supplies etc. I had the toyota sr5, actually 3 of them and loved them. Would have bought another but the prices they were charging was the same price as the full size and the gas mileage was the same. Stop making the truck to tow with cause that is what kills the mpg. Make a simple truck, we dont need four doors since no one ever sits in the back of them, just make a regular cab but make the bed where you can put a sheet of plywood between the wheel wells, and keep the price down and you will not be able to make enough of them.

[@GeneralChangFromDanang]

​@@robertryan7204Have you seen the maverick sales in the US? I can't drive a few blocks without seeing one. Knowing this... I think you're wrong

[@robertryan7204]

@@TroyEdinSammyWinchester82 what sells in the US has no relevance to Global sales. Globally Pickup Trucks are getting bigger and more luxurious, not smaller. Small vans do what a Maverick does outside NA

[@corneliuswowbagger]

I just hauled a few bags of cow manure in the back of a 4-Runner. When I got home I told my wife the next time I’m buying a small truck!

[@Edgar-and-Wrench]

If its in the 20k range and a hybrid option i will buy in a heartbeat.

[@milleniallgt9715]

That’s what they said about the maverick, it would be 20k psssh yea right, it’s double the price right around 40k

[@Edgar-and-Wrench]

@@milleniallgt9715 and i tried to order mine to secure msrp. Pshh yea right. 2 dealers kept giving me the run around that it would be ordered. It never went through and then the order banks closed.

[@DrRyan82994]

they want to spec you up as high as possible. wouldn't surprise me if the hybrid was locked into the highest trim with the biggest wheels, touchscreen 23 speakers 12 cameras, you get the idea. and the base will be elusive at best

[@Edgar-and-Wrench]

@@DrRyan82994 and that sucks

[@charliethewanderer6872]

Toyota is all over the place with the pricing. IMV-0, and other compact truck around $10,000. Toyota must release the compact trucks to capture the market from Ford. Time waits for no company to put their product on the market. Once the buyer made a purchase of a compact truck. It is too late for the other company to sell their product. Early bird gets the worm ???

[@petersellas7025]

The beds are too small in these new small trucks. They are useless. They are missing out on the youth market. A six foot bed is functional for carrying lumber, plywood, surfboards and yard waste. I have a 2004 Toyota Tacoma single cab with a six foot bed and am asked all the time if I want to sell it. These are kids that are wanting my truck. One that is not too expensive..... The youth market can't afford a $40k truck...

[@mbvx7]

Glad they finally realized that some of us just want a truck incase we buy a TV or a dishwasher and just wanna throw it in the bed and go home. We don't need a large "work truck". Also, there really needs to be more options for sub $20k that doesn't suck. Not all of us are rich or have spouses for 2nd incomes . . can't believe Chevy and GM don't have a Maverick competitor

[@lucashack5318]

$20,000 truck that will be on the lot for $38,000. 👍

[@rightwingsafetysquad9872]

And it won't sell. Dealers are in panic mode right now because they bought their inventory expecting to be able to mark up a lot. It worked for the past 2 years, it isn't working anymore. Inventories are increasing and customers aren't buying. Discounts will be back by the end of the year. Perhaps a lot of dealers will be bankrupt by the end of the year as well.

[@lucashack5318]

@Right Wing Safety Squad They go bankrupt and the government bails them out. Rinse, cycle, repeat.

[@jrfoster4225]

I want one!! I used to have a compact pickup (Mazda B2300) and the size is perfect for me. Some hauling and towing abilities and utilitarian enough for the general homeowner jobs I do at my house.

[@John-kx3ng]

I think it would be stretch for Toyota to this . Although everything is already there to do this such as platform and mechanicals. Body panels are inexpensive but if this would be brought to market it would be at least two more years out also given the fact that it wouldn’t be launched too close to the new Tacoma.

[@whasian1487]

The Maverick is selling like hotcakes. And its only competitor is the Santa Cruz. I could see Toyota wanting a piece of that market.

[@josefonseca6144]

I had a s10 single cab for years and it was the best truck for NO where I lived. If I can get a truck that size again hell yeah I’ll buy

[@palebeachbum]

I really hope Toyota does come out with a new small pickup, but I seriously doubt Toyota will be selling it at only $20k, cheaper than a Ford Maverick which currently starts at around $23k with destination charge. In the rendering shown, it's clearly a Ford Maverick with a Toyota face grafted on.

[@vuetube4558]

It's better not be a Ford M or I'm not buying at all!!! I'll pay close attention to what's inside the hood.for sure!

[@jayboogie7956]

But will it come in a diesel option??

[@BlackSheeproadstar]

If someone would offer a two door version I would buy one.

[@dwaynetownsend1287]

2 door full size bed, I'm in...

[@nazspeed1]

Highly unlikely due to the platform it will probably be based on. Camry Rav4 TNGA.

[@davidsigmon4462]

Please put gear shift lever not push button transmission.

[@MogulFarmer]

I ride dirtbikes and this is exactly what I need. I would buy this now if it was available. I’m not buying a Ford. I only buy Toyota.

[@genevandyke4088]

Like every single small truck in the “ low “ 20K’s it still costs yer about 35-40k ,

[@LouSassles]

TOYOTA JUST RELEASE THE HILUX IN THE US AGAIN YOULL BE OKAY

[@Nono-rh4lr]

But are they trucks? If it’s a unabody is it really a truck? I feel like it had to be a body on frame for me. I get the urban use but that’s the Ridgeline.

[@patrickbateman7334]

I just want a compact truck with a V6

[@Doc1855]

I hope the new Stout looks tough, not like the Whimpy Maverick. A muscular looking front end and wide squared off front end rear wheel well sheet metal.

[@Lokielan]

20k with a 30k dealer markup.... 😅

[@EnigamiNetshinobi]

Shiet..... I'm afraid of that.

[@BooBoo-mv9if]

You will never never see a low 20’s truck on the showroom floor. Are u not aware of the current high mark up on new cars/ teucks ? They will muck it up. I promise.

[@Boilerman1945]

The actual price on the lot will more likely be an average of 30-35K. You will never see one in the low to mid 20s.

[@johnmca5643]

Useless 4 door truck with a tiny bed. How about a 2 door truck with a 6 foot bed?

[@richardkusimenkah]

I'll say it once and I'll say it again. We ain't gonna see this thing if it's built until mid to late 2024-2025 auto makers are slow to this much needed vehicle segment

[@nephetula]

A new "$20k" pickup? I think they mean like $29,995. Keep in mind that even their cheapest car, the Corolla, starts at around $22k.

[@MayweatherjrWONandsoTrump]

Bring back Toyota Hilux, what amazing small pick up truck

[@javadog6288]

I have been waiting 20 years for Toyota to bring the Hilux to the US. Never happening it looks like. I will have to rename it the Noluk. I hate even seeing pictures of it now in Australia and elsewhere.

[@xeladduj5199]

I hope they make one with a long bed and short cab option

[@ra_redesignautomobiles]

I remember though that I was in the middle of brainstorming back in 2022 thinking the name of the Maverick competitor for Toyota, then a glimpse of idea went in and looked for Toyota Stout, the original small truck in 1960s before the Hilux, I quickly redesigned the stout based on its original design and uploaded it. 2 months passed I never knew I made the trend of Toyota Stout revival.. I wish that little would be body on frame

[@heyjoe9267]

People rushed to buy Mavericks and the Ford dealers promptly added a 10k markup….

[@selenamiranda8409]

Yep, some put in an order and wound up paying 10-20k over MSRP. Pipe dream, just a pipe dream. You can saturate the market with large trucks only so much. Anyway, what's with the large trucks? Just to go grocery shopping down the street? Expensive.

[@sarsattacks]

I remember the "YO" Toyota trucks. I really miss those, because I think, while most people do want some ability to transport large items, don't need that much horsepower and probably use it to drive around town like a sedan most of the time.

[@mrradio2187]

I paid $2700 for a new 1973 Chevy Luv and put 50,000 miles on it before selling it almost 2 years later for $2700! Prices were skyrocketing for the small pickups and everybody wanted one.
