2020 TRD Pro Updates - Army Green & Push Button Start

I am unbelievably jealous and heavily debating trade in based on the color. I love green on vehicles, especially Forest Green.

EDIT: Yes, this is a heavily vinyl wrapped one, but the effect is the same. GREEEEEEEEENN

My 17 Pro has a little over 10,000 miles on it. I might be moving up to 2020 Pro if Toyota removes the ugly roof rack!! Don’t care for it. I should get almost what I paid for my Pro if I decide to trade it in.

Any idea if those are fender flares or vinyl wrap?

Can anyone tell me if it is removable without leaving permanent holes in the roof body work? Is it attached to the existing stock roof rails or in some other fashion?

You could always removed it and sell it off.

The PRO basket utilizes the existing mounting holes for the standard 4R rails. Reviews on the '19 basket seem pretty mixed. It's definitely not as functional as a 3/4 rail and crossbar setup, and looks are subjective. I happen to like the way it looks, one of the reasons I went with the PRO.
 
Just my experience r/e Seattle dealers on TRD Pros, Auburn and Burien were ONLY dealers in WA let alone Seattle area that were willing to sell TRD Pro at MSRP without "premium" or "market rate adjustment." Sales interface in my experience at Bremerton and Magic Toyota in north Seattle were an absolute joke (very shifty dealing and in case of Magic disrespectful). Everyone else falls somewhere in between.

If I were buying again, I would buy at Burien with Auburn as second choice.

I agree regarding Magic. Dealing with them sucked. They wasted more than two month of my time back in late 2017 when I was trying to buy my 2018 ORP with specific options and color. If they say they will allocate one for you and at a great price, I wouldn’t trust them. I ended up buying from Foothills which was pretty decent to deal with.
 
Any word on non-Pro colors? Still the same boring ass colors, I'd imagine. But I'm holding my breath a litttttle bit that they'll take a page from the Tacoma book and offer Voodoo Blue on the down-models. Like an ORP.

I really hate blackwhitesilvergray everything. Gimme some Crush or Mojito on it!

No color changes.
 
With a ten year model run, Toyota could have done *something* to update the color palette a bit.

Predawn gray mica is nice because it's got a tinge of brown in it. MGM is very flat to me... or maybe I'm just sick of looking at it.

Blueprint is a little darker than Nautical Blue... would also be a nice change.

Ruby Flare is a little darker and more dynamic than Barcelona, and I'd be open to that change also.

I'm wondering if they'll even update the wheel styles at all?

P.S. I called the GM of my dealership yesterday to ask about 2020 updates and his quote was, "All we've been told is we'll have them on the ground here in September, but it's weird that we've received no other ordering information or guides."

Yeah. I hate to admit it, but it's a pretty big check in the "con" column for me. Get some life in there.

I mean...I'm a sucker for blues. Voodoo, Cavalry, etc. But at least gimme a Radiant Red or make Inferno an option on the lower trims now. I like the way Tacoma does it. One year special color on the Pro, then the Pro gets a new one and the lower trims get the last year Pro color.

If they do that for 2020 I may buy a Voodoo Taco instead of a monochromatic 4Runner.

It would be nice if they even offered the old colors of shoreline blue and salsa pearl.
 
Everything in Toyota's PR sphere this week is about the Supra launch, so I'm optimistic that over the next two weeks, we'll get our 2020 4Runner press release. It's getting down to the wire with dealers expecting inventory in September.

If I recall correctly, it takes 4-5 weeks for the journey from Tahara to Cali, and 6 weeks for the east coast trip. That means they'd be starting production within 2-3 weeks for September deliveries?

Inventory also seems a bit low from what I'm seeing.

My dealer said late October/Early November for a 2020 delivery, the 2019 press release came out in mid October, I'd think dealers would start receiving ordering info sometime in August maybe early September at the latest.

If they are available October or November the best time to trade your Pro for a 2020. The dealers want the used Pros on there lot to sell. But then again the dealers want one owner vehicles in great shape. Just my opinion.
 
Or...Toyota could just announce it tomorrow (the 16th) and I’d consider it my birthday present from them...:whoo:
