On the contract, the cash price vehicle is $30,675 and the cash price optional equipment is $1,015. I should clarify that we purchased the 6 year warranty ($2627.88) w/ gap (600). Tax and license came to $2459.46.
We got the truck for invoice + $500. We were charged $31,690 invoice price and got a $1500 rebate. The line that sais 37,422 (which made me panic) did not include the rebate. SO without the warranty and gap what we really paid is: $32,694.46 (which includes $1,015 in accessories, tax and licensing and rebate).
So maybe its not such a bad price. Maybe i could have done a little better but oh well. One thing that did bother me though was the way I was treated after I called and spoke with a sales manager about my concerns. I went through Maita Toyota and spoke with a sales manager about the whole thing and he said "if you think you got a bad deal then its your problem" then he hung up on me a minute later. Also the whole thing moved very quickly and I felt rushed through the process. I want to get a camry in 2006 but will definitely not go through Maita again for this purchase.
Hope this helps.

Since this truck ran so well, I also brought another one. Last year in 2004, I brought a 2004 Toyota Tundra Double Cab Limited for $30,200 Leather seats TRD package with tax included from Toyota of Lakeside in Louisiana. Wish I could have wait for the 280 hp 2005 tundra.
I also like ford f150 but they wanted $33,000 for their trucks similar to the 2004 tundra.
The 2002 Tundra has pull my 6,500lb boat and trailer with no problems, but I only get 10 mpg while towing. And I've delivered goods that were 1300 lbs with no problems.
thanks
It totally sounds like you didn't do your hw nor shop around. If you are the type of buyers who do not like to negotiate, you should consider using Edmunds.com to request quotes from local dealers or using Costco purchase program. This is probably the easiest way other than walk into a place and pay msrp + acess+ ttl. As with the warranty and gap insurance, I suggest you go get it refund if it's possible. If you really need the warranty, shop and buy it else where.
I don't mean to give you a hard time, but things like this always tick me off when a person is buying something and he/she is not involved in the details. My fiancee is like that and I have to keep an eye over her back all the time. In return, she thinks I am a controlled freak. Whatever!!! The most important thing is I have to make sure no one is taking easy money out of my wallet.
Regarding to your next car purchase, it doesn't matter if you go to the same dealership or not. All of them are the same. They will try to make money out of you as much as they can as long as you allowing them. You are the one in control so you will have to be in control. If you are not sure or have any questions, I suggest you post the deals you got on this forum and plenty of people are willing to share their thoughts with you.
Good luck!

invoice price plus rebate. $34273-1500 = $32773 Cash Price. MSRP was $37632. I
opted for warranty and maintence. OTD $38661.99, that includes Taxes (8.5%) and
reg (~$400). I looked around for a while and nobody could beat the Costco
membership price. Costco program was no hassle unlike the many other dealerships I went to.
I was also considering the Tacoma but liked the Tundra better due to its size
and options.
The options: FE, LD, CK, EJ, HD, JC, KG, LP, CF :shades:
I am also looking for clarification on a feature, Edmunds lists as an option a VD package (vehicle stability control) said to include,vehicle stability control,traction control,limited slip differential,daytime running lights and fog lamps.Requires purchase of AC or TW(tilt wheel) also. This is not a problem since I would want the features listed but from the Toyota web site, and my discussions with dealers ,I have been told a limited slip differential is not available with the v6 automatic package.
If anyone can clarify this I would appreciate it.(I do not want to purchase 4wd vehicle but I may have to consider v8 for option instead of v6 in order to get limited slip diff.)I'm sure fuel economy would be less with v8 pkg.
Thanks!! Torch
It looks like I paid too much, about $24,500 OTD, for the 2002 Tundra V8 SR5 access cab with cloth seats. After discovering this board a couple of months ago, I compare what I paid then to what others have paid now and I think I should have paid only $21,500 or $22,000 at most OTD price for that truck. Oh well, being ripp off $3,000 to $6,000 from the dealer is the usual.
And I think I also overpaid for the 2004 Tundra Double Cab Limited $30,200 OTD with tax. It came with Leather, TRD, towing. Looking at what others have paid, the price I should have probably paid should be $27,500 OTD.
This is why I hate going to buy new vehicles at the dealers. We will never know their bottom line price.
I guess we should keep in mind to take $7,500 off msrp instead of the usual $5,000 off msrp. They are marking up their prices like ford and hope to make some easy money.
Good luck on buying your new Toyota truck.
I am looking forward to purchase a Tundra Acess Cab V8 with some +/- options(very flexible) in the Dallas/Fortworth Area. Does anyone have any recommendation on good dealerships out there? The truck I am looking at has an invoice price around $23,000. I know there's a $1500 rebate going on right now. The big question is can I get this truck at below invoice($500 to $1000) and get to keep my rebate? I am looking torwards to buy at the end of this month. Any help or opinion is appreciated.

Just bought an 05 D-Cab Limited last Friday. Paid 33987 against MSRP 38391. They were 700 lower than any other Toyota dealer, AND they offered 1500 more on my trade than anyone else. Made it very easy. I got exactly what Edmunds estimated for my trade and got the truck right at invoice (minus the current rebate).

Sorry if the post was unclear or seemed useless. Consumer Reports gave that as a proviso actually, that if you plan on keeping it well past the warranty then an extended warranty should be considered. I don't keep them more than 4 or 5 years in general. Tundras don't warrant the expense of extended warranties for a couple years beyond the factory warranty. If you buy less than very good or excellent reliability, then you should consider it as well.
Consumer reports has been very very good to me.
I still turned it down, but that's mostly because I don't worry too much about costly repairs. The problem is the inconvenience of having my truck in the shop, and Toyota's warranty doesn't help me with that.
I've been to 3 dealers in the Atlanta area and one in Macon. It has mostly been a complete farce for two major reasons:
you have to practically threaten the salesman with violence before you get something even close to fair for your trade.
Dealerships continually use factory rebates to mask other things they stick in the price and when you call them out on it the response is always the same "but I'm giving you $3000 off" - that's not costing the dealership a dime and when they try to peck away at my FACTORY rebate I get very pissed off.
With the exception of one of the four dealerships I've visited, OTD price has always been a few hundred over invoice minus rebate on 2005's Tundra's (yes, I said 2005). You would think there would be a little more motivation to get these off the lot. Speaking of invoice, it seems standard at Toyota dealers that invoice = invoice plus various mark-ups. Yet another ploy I am completely sick of seeing.
One dealer who didn't have anymore 2005's (therefore leveled with me on a few things) said Toyota is still not happy with market penetration and that's why we have rebates on 2006 Tundra's that just got on the lot this month. Apparently there is too big a gap between Ford/Chevy and Toyota full sized pickups. I can tell you why, it's not about the truck, it's about the morons at the dealership.
I do NOT want to buy a Ford/Chevy/Dodge/Nissan/whatever but there is no way I'm going to buy a 2005 unless I get a really good deal. These sales managers who try to convince me that I'm getting a really good deal are so pathetic.
anyway... rant off...... There are still 10 or so 2005 Double cabs in the Atlanta area, I'm curious to see what they do when we get into October and there are still on the lot.

As far as trade-ins go, sell the vehicle on your own. The dealers have a lot of trade-ins on their lots and the larger used vehicles trucks and SUV's are not moving. The dealers are even undercutting the KBB Trade in Values.
New large trucks simply are not selling well. If you cannot get the Tundra you want at or near invoice, move onto another dealer. Toyota simply cannot move the new Tundra's, hence the rebate.

The auto dealer asked for 22,700 on this car below. TMV is 22,037 after rebate($1500). How much can I start to bid, 20,700 or 21,200?
