Toyota Tundra Access Cabs
...and what packages should I order with it. I was
looking for a SR5 but haven't seen a Limited yet.
What should I look for in terms of packages on the
4X2 since I need to haul a boat or trailer with it?

Monday maybe three] Toyota Dealers in Central
Arkansas. The main problem seems to be an
incessant need to low ball on the trade and creep
upwards of 25% over invoice on the new.
Armed,(thru Edmunds),with the facts these
"professionals" seem to look at you as if you're
from Mars when you give them an honest offer. I
have remained consistent on my trade's appraisal
and offered a flat $500 over invoice. In each case
I have watched every dealership creep those
figures back up to 27K-29K while I stand there and
tell them I know the cost is just over 25K. One
"rocket scientist" even wrote his "bottom dollar"
on the actual invoice. When he showed me his
figure I saw that the invoice on it was $24,975.
He said he had to get $28,000 for it. I shook my
head and laughed and said "I hope you get it...but
it won't be from me".
If we all would do this we could bring these guys
back to reality.
where my figures and 'theirs' take opposing turns.
In each case 'the dealers' have items such as:
MAF and PIA and PIO added to their invoices. Ask what they are and they "can't tell you". All I get is that this is something that all the cars have tacked in and advertising and floorplan and financing is drawn against it. Can you get out from under any of it by pre-custom ordering? NO.
What has happened is all the 'splurge' money I was intending to use on optioins I wanted would now be eaten up by these non-existent costs that "the factory puts on there". Not this time, Toyo. Keep your Tundras til you decide to play fair.
"Is that the package or are they finally being truthful about the towing ability? Ha Ha Ha!"
They should have called it "Special" or given it a specific name like Ford did with "Lariat".
Just my opinion.

I asked the same question you have on the other forums. Not many V6 units are being produced. The major factor is the price.
I think I will ask for another one.

But just to let you know what the competition is showing for oil pressure, around 40-50 psi at idle, in 5.3L Chevrolet V8.
I've put about 200 miles on it and so far it's great. To get the color and options I wanted I had to settle for captains chairs, but sure wish I had the big arm rest that came with the bench seat. Anyone know of a armest designed to fit on the center console for the models that come with captains chairs?
My only problem is getting past the 1000 mile break in period. Owners manual recommends not going over 55mph for the first 1000 miles. Seems a bit extreme, but hey, they know best so I'll do as told ;-(
Last summer my cousin Franklin and my Grand-Uncle Bob (know as Rube round these parts), went to test one, but wanted to tow that massey behind it durin that run. Them folks refused it flat out. If I was you, I be wantin to do that run haulin full up with that horse trailer, be findin out for myself before droppin the green. Heard tell of folks gettin that letdown on the haul before. Good luck on this one now.
that is made for the V6. There was a guy in
maryland who had it put on. If you are not
pulling heavy loads ie. heavy construction, you
can save yourself 1500 - 2000. Remember one thing
a lot of dealerships will tell you they do not
make one or there book does not show them for
their region. It maybe true for the region but
Toyota makes a MODEL#7822 Tundra Access Cab SR5
4WD V6. The V8 is the main production but they
are making some V6's. In the north east there
are a couple.
Ended up ordering from a New Hampshire dealer - no hassle, no pressure. What a difference. Second new Toyota I've purchased over the years - first one was the same hassle. WHY must these guys be this way???
Just blowing steam -- looking forward to the truck.
Delivery time is 4 to 6 weeks - looking forward to the truck.
Tundra specifics: 7822
CA, CQ, AL, DZ, LF, AB, CF. $25078 invoice,
$500 profit and $99 doc fee - 25,677 out the door. Unfortunately I'll have to deal with Maine sales tax when I register it, but there's the deal.
In looking at your specs, what is V3? I am not familiar with that code. Also, I probably will add the BL, as he said I had about 2 weeks to change, delete options. I went with the Imperial Jade Mica with #11 Light Charcoal interior. What color did you choose? Also, when did you order and what time frame are you looking at?
V3 - Delux security system 188.00, I also had
ordered the Imperial Jade Mica with Oak interior.
I put my order in two weeks ago. The manufacture
rep for the dealerships took the order. I'm
looking at May - Jun time frame but he said it
will most likely be earlier. As you can see I paid
about 200 more but that included the 5% Maryland
sales tax.
A few days ago took a trip of about 100 miles,mostly freeway, and drove at various speeds from 50-75... No shake or vibration yet! Got 18.6mpg...
I am surrounded (neighbors)with Fords, Dodges, and Chevies. They are happy with their choice,and so am I.
Thanks for the input..
My dealer tells me the truck is preferenced. April 11th is the last day to change my mind and make and "major" option changes, and the truck is scheduled to be built on April 24. He expects it at his dealership about 1 week later.
Was wondering if you've heard anything else on your order?
