Can you tell us what sticker was and at what dealer? Thanks!
$45,883 Wilsonville (OR) Toyota
Can you tell us what sticker was and at what dealer? Thanks!
Yikes, $49K for an SR5P? That's the price the dealer quoted me on an ORP with KDSS and a moonroof!
It's ridiculous. You're practically in Limited territory at that price, too.
Base price $42,890 + $5,831 (!!) in options + $1,270 delivery.
$630 - moonroof
$1,085 - 3rd row
$2,999 - blackout-plus package
$299 - cross bars
$179 - cargo cover
$464 - vehicle protection plus package
$995 - premier protection package
Crazy how much things have changed in one year. Was just looking through my emails at when I should have pulled the trigger almost one year ago today -- multiple dealers in my area gave me quotes for $5k - $7k off depending on the model. Could have bought a TRD ORP for $39,800.![]()
I guess avery region has their own package names...What is the "Blackout Plus package"? TRD Pro black rims/tires + blacked out badging? What are the last two "protection" plans, extended warranties?
Well it’s always been a Dem dream to have European gas prices and Brandon has been working hard to make that happen and with the Ukraine conflict expect it to go higher. Yesterday I saw one gas station raise their prices .84 cents in 24 hrs. Never saw a jump like that in my life. They went from the cheapest to the most expensive in town overnight at $5.53 a gallon. I’ve seen a buck and a half increase in just the last month. Sadly I don’t see it slowing down any time soon. I think this will start to affect sales.I know it's been fairly recent phenomenon, but does it seem like the insane price for gas is scaring away the crowds and waiting lists at the dealer that were lining up to buy 4Runners?

Wait until gas hits $10 a gallon. It could easily be $5-10 fir the next 6 months, with the same for food prices. Throw in some rate hikes to try and deflate things and I have a feeling the market will be completely awash with barely used SUVs and trucks by summer.

We put a deposit on an SR5 Premium, black metallic with beige interior, for just under $46k. Add-ons include moonroof, 3rd row seating, black-out emblems, wilderness package and dual power ports. Should be here mid April.
Was dealing with another dealer, on a Lunar Rock TRD ORP, but they had a $5k dealer "additional assessments" of tint, undercoating, clear bra, etc., that they would not budge on, nor omit. While trying to negotiate removing the added costs, another customer put a deposit down. Poorly run negotiations on their part I think, but they are also a smaller volume dealer. Ended up going with a larger, no BS dealer in the area. Only thing we didn't get is a locker, which we can add later and are happy with the choice we made.
Sounds like someone with some "wishfull thinking" about buying a new vehicle without the crazy markups that are out there today :roll:
The gas prices are all driven by the commodity sector not what the presidents says or war (not saying that those two things don't effect what commodity traders base their trading logic on), so if barrels trade for 100 dollars a barrel Friday morning and 123 friday afternoon, gas prices follow suite.
Curious, not trying to make it political and more of just an understanding question as I know nothing about commodities or trading them. Here is what I'm seeing. Oil was $36/bbl on November 3rd and doubled almost immediately after the election. Oil was $90/bbl before the war and hit almost $130 the other day because of the war. Biden shut down pipelines and campaigned largely against oil and more green energy. How does what the president says or does or war not effect oil prices? This whole war is about oil. Genuinely curious.
How come the gas stations jacked up the prices immediately? It's almost like they are displaying crude oil futures like a stock market. Whereas the gas underground at that time was bought for a lower price!

In response to an earlier comment, Putin did not invade Ukraine because of oil. Putin invaded for a number of reasons. One of the reasons that does not get talked about much in Western media is his mental conditioning by the former Soviet regime and KGB. He is absolutely conditioned (programmed in a sense) to be suspicious of every Western move and to look at it from the angle of "how does the west's move of doing 'x' antagonistic toward Russia." We immigrated from the Soviet Union (miraculous story since we are not Jewish) and, whether Putin knows it or not, he is conditioned to be suspicious, even paranoid, of the West. I think we all can objectively agree that no member of NATO, or NATO itself, had plans for a military offensive against Russia in the future. If it was not evident then, it is now. We won't even step in to stop the humanitarian crisis in Ukraine. The west does not want military conflict.
Again, there are a number of reasons Putin went in to Ukraine. And it seems like he is fighting this war the old Soviet way. He has not studied history and is repeating it. Or perhaps, he has only studied history the way Soviets taught it. Which was all propaganda. If I told you what they taught (and did not teach) you would be shocked. I can confirm that, at least as of 20 years ago, the holocaust was not taught in Russia and most people did not know of it. And that is 10 years removed from the collapse of the Iron Curtain.
EDIT: I forgot to include the reason for my post lol. I have a 4Runner TRD ORP on order with KDSS at MSRP. I am waiting for a Lunar Rock. The Long Beach port here is backed up so it may be a while. I think this is a good thing because it will allow me to monitor the gas situation. I will cancel if prices get to high. I am predicting $9 for Los Angeles before the end of the year.
