Auto Buying ZIP Code Entry | Costco Auto Program


Also, if you click on the color square under the TRD Pro trim you can see the greenish color that they're calling Lime Rush.

Don't click on the color or the total price won't show at the bottom.

Odd, in February (when I put my deposit down for a Lunar Rock at MSRP), the TRD Pro trim wasn't available as an option.

I'd be curious if someone can round-back if/when they actually get a dealer to accept a deal for them...

Costco will always show the 4runner on their website. However since March they have been excluded from discounts from the dealers. So I wouldn't hold my breath on this one.

Yeah I don't care about getting a "deal" through them as their program is basically worthless in my eyes.

I was just happy to find all of the information for every trim level of '22 4Runner released even though Toyota hasn't released it yet.

This!

It looks like the 360* camera is a $750 option on the ORP

I saw that too but asked my dealer to remove it from my build unless that'll cause my build to be delayed.

He added it on a couple weeks ago when he placed my order.

Worthless? My Costco discount when I bought my 2018 4Runner was $2K, plus the factory had an incentive of $1K at the time. I don't call that worthless.

Same. I got an awesome deal that I couldn’t refuse on a 2019. Glad I did it

It is worthless for my area as there aren't any participating dealers for 250+ miles.

They don't even have any Ford or Chevy dealers

I used Costco when purchasing ours previously, but just like around you, the dealerships are all opting out of even offering the Costco program. The last one that did said the Costco discount was "MSRP."

Helpful that Costco at least lists the options and pricing so early!

I priced my 4runner through Costco and found a much better price shopping online. I did have to drive from Atlanta to Hoover Alabama. The deal was done by email and just drove over there to pick it up.

I think what he means is that in a market where Costco doesn’t allow them to charge above MSRP (market adjustment) - which is many places right now - the end result is that dealers just drop out of the program, instead of the expected effect of being able to go to any dealer and force them to sell something for less than is marked on the sticker.

In 2018, $2000 off MSRP before rebates is not very good. Most people were getting $4000-$5000 off at the time.

When I bought mine in 2018, the Costco discount was also $2000 for me. Looking at what people were getting on this forum, I thought $2000 sucked. So I negotiated myself and got $4300 off.

I live in the middle of nowhere and they have no participating dealers (Chevy, Toyota, Honda, Ford, Dodge) that ever return a match on their website for me.

Where I live the program is useless as you can't specify a distance nor can you just say "show me all 4Runners".

2022's are showing up on some dealer websites right now.

I found one dealer that has 12 of them listed.
