They are buying them at 1.5x excellent ,retail kelly blue book value, right??? Bringing mine in tomorrow!!!!

1.5 kelly blue book in excellent condition. and if you buy from toyota remember to ask for 1000.00 toyota loyalty bonus. So it should work out to 1.5 times kelly blue book + 1k$.

If they find something wrong with your vehicle they'll give you one on their dime for 30 days unlimited mileage until you get your offer and new vehicle sorted out. You will not be obligated to the dealer you take your vehicle to in any way. So if they give you the rental etc for 30 days and a dealership in ct has the truck you want you dont have to buy from the dealer you took your truck into.

You bring your truck in they inspect it. They find something wrong, they give you the rental. You get an offer from toyota in the mail, they'll usually call you first and fill you in, you send them in a copy of your reg etc and they then mail you an offer letter. Once you sign and return th eoffer letter they appoint an agent to meet you where you dropped off your yota whatever dealership etc. At that time the agent presents you with your payoff check for the vehicle and you transfer ownership, thats your last chance to grab any cd's etc out of your vehicle. When they give you the check you sign the ownership transfer papers grab your plates etc..


The best I can figure out of this is that if you were in the position to trade in your vehicle youre going to get waaay more than you would in as a standard trade in value etc. 10-12k goes a good way towards the purchase of a new vehicle close to half off in some cases once you negotiate a price. Tne $ goes agood way towards a used certified vehicle also so you can basically jump from a 2k to a 2k5 - 2k4 for 3-6k depending. A final option would be to take your payoff money and buy something else outright through a private seller etc for less than your offer and bank the remainder of the dough. But with the personal seller you dont get the warrantees or certified used vehicles. Theres lots of options to this and you have to go with what works for ya


btw v8 4 door tundra rides like a lincoln towncar and waay more comfy. THing will pas anything but a gas station though..

I doubt it. where i work if your frame fails you have to sign a waiver to take vehicle off the property. To much of a liability. If frames pass where I work, service manager tells customer frame is okay for now and to come back in a year to have re-inspected.

That explains why its a month wait for an appointment there

[macojoe]

And hope you are not in the market for a new or used Tacoma cause the prices are going up and they are getting hard to find!!

Just got the call today $10,200 for my '98 single cab 4 cyc STD with no frills whatsoever....Not bad since I paid half that over 2 years ago but it seems I now cant replace it for less than what I am getting from yota.....go figure.....
