I had the same thought about visiting the dealer and saying that his inflexibility on the price cost him the sale. I was willing to sign a P&S that day, but he did not want to bend. And that '13 is still on the lot as of about 5 minutes ago.

Yeah. The black mutes the curves of the grille very nicely. Not much of a black fan, but black on black is quite nice, and red accent stitching makes it "pop" nicely inside so it is not too dark. I HATE having a payment as well, but we are incredibly blessed and the truck will be paid off...

I agree. Those dealers that refuse to work with buyers in this day and age get the leftovers....People who are more impulsive and not saving as much in their purchases. They make it easier to leave and go to another dealer who will work with you. Just bought the Black '14 T4R, as you can see...

Will take delivery of her on Monday. Like a kid on Christmas morning............

Here ya go.

I just signed on a 2014 Trail Premium Black with black SofTex, KDSS, Remote Starter, wheel locks, all weather mats, and cargo cover. MSRP was $42,189 Got the total down to $35,500 minus trade. The catch was that it was a dealer demo, and has 7,241 miles on it. As for negotiating, the two...

Bought my '14 Trail Premium with 7,241 miles on it (dealer demo) for $35,500. KDSS and remote starter were the only big options. I say this only to help you negotiate. Looked at '13 Trail brandidy new that another dealer would not budge on, even though it was on the lot for 130+ days.

I just signed papers to get a black '14 Trail Premium with KDSS. Drove a '13 Trail with KDSS about 10 prior, and '14 seemed to ride far more like a truck. Just what I want, I don't want a truck that rides like a car. Handled like a dream. I found the SofTex quite comfortable as well. We...

Thanks for your suggestions guys. Tried to get the 2013, drove nicely, but the stealer wouldn't bend at all. Wanted to charge me $1,200 over invoice on a left over 2013 that had been on the lot for 130 days. So I felt a bit dejected. All is not lost though. Went to a stealer yesterday, got...

Glad you guys are OK as well. Looks like the tree got you on the other side of the truck...... Going to do the dance with the dealer tomorrow, may not even like the truck. No incentives on a 2013 though, so I have to see if they'll go below invoice on it with just haggling. Figure if I can...

Yes. That was at 25 mph into a tree. Absolutely intrusion into passenger cabin. Great truck, to the very last second. Going to go cry now.

I am tolerant of the truck. Suits our purposes, but quite tight with two kids in car seats and trying to any shipping - the bed isn't as handy as one might think. We are just thinking that the 4Runner is a better suit for us, but don't want to entirely jump in over it without thinking, and you...

I have. That is why I have been jonesing for the past 2 days. Someone was doing acid while smoking laced pot and intoxicated designing that friggin thing.

Well, been a while since I perused these boards, nice to see things going along well. Sadly, last week my wife hit a patch of ice and totaled our 2007 Sport. She walked away a bit shaken, but no injuries. Feels like a loss in the family. Great truck, awesome memories of off roading in...
