Replying to: cal4 (Aug 26, 2008 9:03 am) well... i'm not sure its legitimate, but most dealers do it. Maybe its a northeast thing? its fluff basically. I think by law they have to retain documentation for so many years, so its just another way to get a few bucks...

Replying to: cal4 (Aug 26, 2008 9:03 am) a doc fee is nothing more than pure profit. some states are capped at what they can charge, and others are not. if it's relatively small, like in ca ($55 cap), nobody argues with that, especially when you get them to sell you a vehicle at or below invoice. however, anything more than about $75 is absurd and should be negotiated. some states, aahhemm... florida.... aahhhemm, are known for their outrageous doc/process fees, sometimes in excess of $600!   best advice: just take into account how much it is in the grand spectrum of your entire deal. if you were able to negotiate a price well below invoice in which they dipped well into their holdback, then maybe letting them make $100 in the form of a doc fee would be alright.
#943 of 1036 Please post sale price after your purchase by vikter Sep 18, 2008 (11:08 pm)
If you recently purchased a Tacoma, please post the trim and options, MSRP price, the sale price and the drive out price.   It's incredible that there are so few posts on tacomas considering they are very popular. I've used the edmunds price paid forums to get a great deal on my wife's 2008 accord and just wish I could do the same for a new tacoma. If I buy a tacoma, I'll post my sale price to hopefully help others negociate better.

I just totaled my 2003 Taco (171k miles), so I am i the market for a new '08 or '09. I live in NJ, and plan to buy within the next week or so.   I will be looking for a 4wd, 6cyl, access cab with the SR5 package. Color is important, with Pyrite Mica being my first choice and Black being the second.   Couple of Questions: 1. Would it make sense to wait until after 09/30 to see what new offers Toyota puts out for the Tacomas (currently only specials on the '09 DC and the '08 models (if any are left))   2. Do you think there is any inventory of 08's left? I am really interested in the Pyrite Mica color, but something tells me it will be difficult to find. I would settle for Black if the Pyrite Mica is not an option, but again, not sure what the 08 selection is like in Central Jersey.   3. What should I expect to pay for an '09? Are the trucks selling so well that the dealers are not backing down? I see the TMV for my area is $26,401, while the MSRP is $26,655. $200 below MSRP is not a good deal. FYI, the invoice is listed at $24,491. Again, are these selling so well that I can really expect to pay almost MSRP?   Thanks.

Replying to: skinsfan44 (Sep 24, 2008 6:38 am) i would wait untill the new incentives come out Oct. 1+-. I have cast around Ohio and Indiana the past month for a 09 and ever dealer I conatacted would except a $300 over invoice offer. Wish you were closer to me. I need a few parts off a Tacoma going to the crusher/junk yard that would never be missed. Replies to this message: skinsfan44 (Sep 24, 2008 8:39 am)

Replying to: cal4 (Sep 24, 2008 7:03 am) Thanks for the response, Cal4. I hope you are right and what you heard ($300 over invoice) is more accurate than the Edmunds TMV price.. Any idea as to the '08 inventory, or were you just looking for an '09? I think I will take your advice and wait until 10/1.   Thanks again!
#947 of 1036 About to Buy? by mtrialsm Sep 24, 2008 (10:49 am)
I'm looking at an '08 Tacoma double cab, 2wd. sticker was $26749.00. It's marked down to $24002.00. Now with $2500 cash back that would be a good price at $21502.00 plus doc fees, tax and title. I'm still thinking about waiting to order an '09 double cab LWB. I like some of the new options and colors. I'm in Georgia.
