2021 TRD Pro Production Halted?
So, I just heard from my local dealer that 2021 TRD Pro Production has been halted. Anyone else hearing this?

2021 trd pro productions are probably ending soon to make way for 2022 models. but not this early - usually around mid to late summer. dealer is probably spitting out bs as usual.

The dealer doesn't really know much of what goes on at the production facility or any future releases. They barely know anything about what they sell.

If I had a dollar for every time a dealer told me "I've heard xxx model will no longer be made/discontinued/supply stopped/price increase" I'd be a rich dude, lol. They're just trying to get you to buy now...

The less production the more my 2020 is worth. Although I doubt it can go higher than the $54,360 I was just offered for it.

Back when I bought my 2018, the dealer told me that no one is buying the FRS and that they were being discontinued, also that most people were unhappy with them and that they typically were steering people towards Camry's if they wanted a sporty car. I don't think they were lying at all either, but shows just how much information they really have as a dealer.

My dealer told me that when I bought my 4R 11 years ago “Production halted at the 4Runner plant...in Texas”

So Subaru/Ford I know have stopped production because of the chip shortages. Wouldn't doubt Toyota is in a similar situation.

Maybe in Tahara after the reactor accident in Fukushima.
Texas? Not likely lol.

I don't see anything online at the moment. If true, it could be due to increasing COVID numbers in Japan (they're WAY more cautious to COVID numbers than the US) or it could be the chip shortage effecting most auto manufacturers.

I heard there is going to be a Tesla powered 4runner after Toyota announced a new partnership with Tesla.
