Probably the final update until I go buy it <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> ....
I called around.. there's 6 toyota dealers in my state, one of which has the truck i drove. Of the other 5....
1 laughed at me and said no way i can beat that price <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />
1 was being really stubborn and trying to make me come down and drive one of his and wouldn't give me a quote (O.o)
1 said he didn't want to sell me a truck because he thinks im way better off going local (very good advice). This guy was my favorite. Totally honest. He looked up my dealer's stock number and whatnot and told me that at the price they're offering me... i should go down there right now and buy it and say thank you. hahaha. He said he's obviously not going to turn me away but if anything he might match their price, probably not beat it. and that doesn't do anything for me being 3+ hrs away.
1 offered me a price *very* close to mine but i gave him mine and he didn't try very hard to beat it.
and the last one said he'd do some research and call me back.
As it stands right now... I think I'm going to go back to my dealer today and see if I can bring it home. I think I'm getting a pretty decent deal. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
$23,980 after rebate it is.
Maybe i can weasel a 100 or two more for my trade-in. Probably not. Boy I wish that $600 US economy stimulate check would arrive a month or two early <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/rodent.gif" alt="" />
