Everything went well at the dealership until they tried to add $650 for paint sealant. I just showed the finance guy my internet quote and he took the $650 off.
Overall I had a great buying experience and I love my new Taco. I could have got the same price without the Admin fee at another dealer but that dealer did not have the color that I wanted and I did not want to wait.
Nov. 2005 I purchased an 06 off road package for $26300.
Oct. 2008 quoted for an 09 sport package, $27657.
Mar. 2009 quoted for an 09 sport package, $26944.
Jan. 2010 quoted for a 2010 sport pkg long bed, $29623.
the upgrades to the Tacoma since 05 have been minimal
if it needs anything, look for leaks burning oil, if you like it low ball him.
I've seen Toyota's hit 300k miles and I have seen Ford Rangers get up to
400k miles, you never know what you will find.

Can anyone advise on the best time to buy a new Tacoma? I would want a cash incentive. I am in no hurry to buy. A salesman friend of a friend stated to purchase either Memorial Day weekend or in the fall. I am very particular and want a red one and also one without any extras, and I understand they may run out of particular vehicles by the new model year. So perhaps summer is the best time.
I will have them add heated seats which seemed to be a reasonable price, something like $250. I will go aftermarket for a remote start. I CAN'T WAIT TO HAVE A REMOTE START! (I have had stick shift vehicles since the 1993 Integra.) This will be my first automatic since my 1980 Delta 88. I look forward to not shifting due to back issues.
Aftermarket electrical stuff like remote starts can get flaky in a few years. If you go that route, check out the warranty. Typically dealer installed accessories will fall under the factory warranty but not always.

You know that idling from that remote start is just going to waste gas and mark my words, you'll need electrical work done on it or the ECU in five years.

is older than dirthas been here forever.The ECU is scary though. Based on your post I have read up on this and it sounds like individuals and amateurs are installing these without knowledge of what is involved. My mechanic is a genius so at least I do not have that concern. High power connections do need special treatment! Hrm...
We get a lot of people who show up every three to five years - funny how that works.
