Is it the premium mode? Moon roof, softex seats etc..
If so I’d jump on that!!
No it’s the regular off road trim without leather or moonroof.

Could be,I know in the Midwest(Minnesota) there are certain combos,(dumb I know) if you go to Toyota website and custom build one and then on the summary page scroll down and you should see "view inventory" that will let you see all of what is in your region (zip code). For instance if I wanted one with kdss and a moon roof I would have to go to Colorado(different region) and when I just selected kdss it eliminated colors.You could always look in a different region for it.Hey guys so I am looking at purchasing a 2018 4Runner OR but did not want the KDSS. The dealer says if you dont want KDSS that your color choices are only red or white. Is this true? I see a fair amount of you have purchased vehicles without KDSS.
I highly doubt it. We’ve purchased a couple cars from Toyota and played the I’ll walk out and walked out...we did get them to budge .... I don’t think by 5K on a 4 runner, no way. I would say 1500 max if the dealer is hard up for a sale, but just in the last month I see these 2018 black 4 runners everywhere, they are selling like hot cakes.

I wrote out a very general statement inquiring about a white or silver TRD Premium 4Runner. Nothing specific other than it had to be a TRD Premium and one of those colors. I opened my search radius to 200 miles and shot the e-mail out rapid fire style to any dealer with one on the lot. I didn't even have to retype anything because the e-mail was saved through the website...all I did was open a new tab and hit send for each one and wait for responses. As they all came in I noticed one was way below everything else I had seen. He actually quoted me $36,549 right out of the gate, and didn't even flinch whenever i asked for the dealer fee to be removed. Beyond that I never even tried to haggle him, we exchanged several e-mails and I was on my way. I never spoke to the guy or met him personally, everything was done via e-mail. While sitting at the table with the salesman, I asked if they could throw in a complete set of all-weather mats. He got up and went to the parts dept. and came back with a complete new set still in box.
Seriously, the easiest buying experience I believe I could have.
I've been lurking for a few days and decided to post. I live in north Florida and emailed a few toyotas in florida and one in GA. my first email back i got $36.4 for a grey ORoad in Orlando and $36.6 for a silver ORoad in GA. I couldn't tell if either had KDSS. I have been preapproved already and have a check from my bank.
**EDIT- a dealer quite far away from me emailed me back. He said he would do $35k plus taxes and fees if we financed with them. He said if I pay cash, it would be $1,000-$1,500 more (which would STILL be lower than my 2nd place price). What do you guys think? why would it be more if i am paying cash? should i push?
Carson Toyota - Super White TRDORP
$1,300 under window sticker which is about $5K less than any other dealer wanted. Would have been more if I had wanted silver or one of the less popular colors.
I bought mine 2 weeks ago and got 5k off msrp without even a big hassle. Pat lobb Toyota in McKinney, TX. I’m sure anyone could get the same deal.
If you finance through them they will make money on a portion of interest you pay for taking out loan with them. Moreover, they will finance you at a higher interest rate. You can finance with them to get $1000-$1500 off and then refinance with your preferred lender once you have purchased the truck. Just make sure you read truth in lending document first before financing with the delaership.

Never negotiated the price and the financing together. Agree on a price first. Only then do you let him run your credit to see if he can beat what your bank is giving you. Linking the two is unethical.
That said, if it's still cheaper, take the best deal. But watch the paper work very carefully.
thanks for the tip. we agreed on the financing and price, finally. i'm driving down to the dealership tomorrow with my wife to sign and add her to the title etc. i appreciate all the tips on here from everyone. decided on silver over white. daytona toyota btw. I did everything from cargurus then email/text and at the VERY least....talk.
