If you're close enough to NC, Jim Barkley Toyota in Asheville always discounts, and from the MSRP (no dealer BS added to the MSRP and THEN discounted). I have noticed it seems manuals are discounted more heavily than automatics...I guess because fewer people want the manuals...and the more heavily optioned, the deeper the discount...I assume because either the dealer profit on the options is high and therefore easily discounted, the dealer gets most of its profit out of the base truck, a more heavily optioned truck is harder to sell, or some combination of the three. The result is that sometimes you can get some nice options for little or nothing over the price of a base model. Anyway, at JBT you can expect anywhere from an 8 to 12% discount off the MSRP. You can view their inventory, including their discounted prices, at jimbarkleytoyota.com. And don't forget to check Toyota's cash back/rebate offers in effect at any given point in time. I really think if one dealer can discount, they all can. I searched long and hard before I bought my Tacoma Access Cab at JBT, and nobody else even came close. I ordered my truck (took about 5-6 weeks to get it) and had to drive about 175 miles (one way) to Asheville, but the savings made it worth my while. Also, from what I've read here, discounting does vary depending on what part of the country you're in. Also, MSRP's vary around the country, which I think is because different regional distributors play around with the BS their dealers are required to pay for their trucks. Bottom line: you should be able to find discounted Tacomas. I would suggest going back and reading some of the deals posted here that other folks got and seeing where they got them. You can probably find a discounter near you if you just look hard enough. Good Luck!

I bought this 2007 Tacoma Access Cab 4-cyl Auto with SR5 #2, Floor Mats, for $18169, including the $1k rebate, total was $20k OTD.
This was Pasadena Toyota, CA
The truck has 19 miles when I test drove it. But when I got it home, I took some photos, and got concerned since I saw some rust in the exhaust pipe, and signs of leaked coolant. Since this is the last 2007 they got, I wonder if there's something they didn't tell me. Please advise. Thanks.
Here's the photos:

Just purchased a 2008 Tacoma prerunner SR5 access cab with convenience package for $19,300. This also includes an interest free loan for 36 months. This beats many of the prices i have seen recently for used tacomas. Hopefully the new tacomas will be as reliable as the old ones.

I'm done beating my head against the wall at the chevy store (tried to purchase a left over 07 in stock for 3 days, and couldn't get a call back before the end of the month). Time to get real, and buy a Toyota.
Looking at an 08 Tacoma 4x4 V6 auto, double cab, with the sport package. MSRP is just over 30k.
Is 12% off sticker realistic?
Is Toyota running a 0% for 60 months, or 1.9% for 72 on the Taco's?

Yes. Very.
No, 0% for 36, no special on 72.
All at least up here in Boston area.
Go to their site and click on "Find Local Specials."
Good luck.

My husband and I went shopping today Central NY area, and are looking at the 08 Tacoma 4x4 V6 Double Cab with the SR5 Pkg. # 2. It invoices at 26,078. Since the dealer tells you what the invoice price is, and and everybody says just give them 300 over invoice, then negotiating a price just got pretty easy. Too good to be true! So with an invoice like this what would be a good starting bid? You know there's other hidden fees. We don't want to dicker for hours with them, we want the vehicle, but would like to know what others are paying for this same vehicle. Anybody out there bought one of these???

Nothing wrong with $300 over. These are invoice and/or near invoice trucks. Offer 'em $500 back of invoice and when they counter at invoice or $100 over, sign the papers and drive home in your new truck.
