#658 of 745 Re: Insurance and Business Rebate [harleys] by nyaudi Sep 08, 2008 (9:41 am)
Replying to: harleys (Aug 28, 2008 12:34 pm) To answer a few questions - no idea what Sep rebates are - but I'd expect with oil falling and supply dwindling as the factories have been closed, these rebates will start to fade. The one thing working in your favor is a 2008 is really a used car at this point by model year terms, so that should help. Our dealer was in Kingston. Not sure I can post name, but you can figure it out.   As for the business discount, yes, it will show your DBA on the title, registration and the insurance card must match your DBA name precisely. But for a sole proprietorship, there is no extra paperwork or hassle. If you do this, you want to tell your insurance this is something like a 10% part time business. Our insurer had no issues with this - they said 20% was their limit. (I told them exactly what I was doing in terms of scoring an extra discount - they enjoyed the story...) And call it something that has you driving only around your own house - like a farm. I'm not surprised Allstate would try to make some more money off it - they are overpriced to start with IMHO   Finally, check Mass. prices. Had we gone there, we may have saved another $1K based on what I saw online, but not sure they will sell to NY resident and provide the Mass. rebates. Good luck and let us know how you make out!
#659 of 745 Considering a new Tundra by tcracer Sep 09, 2008 (2:58 pm)
I am considering purchasing a new Tundra. I want a crew max 4x4, w/TRD package, tow mirrors, bed tie down package, and daytime running lights. I also want to keep the 0%. What is a good price for this truck? Whis is invoice on this model?
#660 of 745 Going to Buy Tundra... by spyguy1022 Sep 10, 2008 (9:11 am)
I am curious as to why there is not a lot of activity on this board? Seems like there is a lot of on some of the other boards I am watching.   Anyway, I am looking to buy a Tundra this week. 4X4 TRD Double Cab. It also has Running lights, brushed steel stepboard, remote start, alloy wheel locks and all weather mats. I don't want the 0% financing and I know that after the Labor Day holiday they took away $1K of the $5K rebate. The dealer told me he would sell at $500 over invoice plus the $4K rebate. I am not sure if that is a good deal. I don't feel I can claim the business rebate and quite frankly don't want the hassle (yes I know it is $1,500K but I just got audited by the IRS this year and am squeamish).   Curious as to what you all are seeing. Thanks! Replies to this message: harleys (Sep 10, 2008 9:28 am) acemk (Sep 12, 2008 8:33 am) harleys (Sep 12, 2008 8:44 am)

Replying to: spyguy1022 (Sep 10, 2008 9:11 am) I got the rebate, but I do have a state business license (easy to get) which is required even if you have just hobby income. The IRS does not have any idea that you to a rebate on a truck. The dealer just needs your state biz license number. ALSO... do not pay more than Invoice minus $500. I had more than one dealer taking that offer by phone so I am sure it could have gone lower, but I was reaching the labor day deadline. Ask your insurer about the business registration. You will be registering car in business name. If you use your own name, no big deal. I have Allstate and they just wanted to make sure I was not going to be having employees drive, which I don't. We are a one person farm business. Replies to this message: acemk (Sep 12, 2008 8:33 am) harleys (Sep 12, 2008 8:44 am)

Replying to: harleys (Sep 10, 2008 9:28 am) Hi! I'm new to this forum and in the market to buy tundra. The best price I can find so far is......   "You are looking at a black Crewcab 4x4 Limited with navigation with a MSRP of over $47,000 for $38,485 plus taxes, tags and $100 processing fee. If you qualify you can get another $1500 off of the $38. Give me a call to discuss this truck."   What u guy think?? Oh, I'm in northern Va. Thanks....

Replying to: acemk (Sep 12, 2008 8:33 am) It is only good if you are paying under Invoice by at least $500 not counting any rebates. Figure in your rebates after you agree to a price relative to invoice. That way, if the truck you find from them or through a locate has different equipment, you price is still set. You don't get a bait and switch etc. I have bought 4 Toyota's this way, on the phone and it is the easiest way. There are some that got better deals than me, but I got my for invoice minus $500 and then received 5500.00 in rebates (1,000 in rebate ended Sept 2). It sounds like your price quote is around invoice, but use the Edmonds pricing.

Replying to: teflonman (Aug 28, 2008 12:08 pm) At the advice of this forum, purchased MY Tundra last night, 9/23, from Ron Carter Toyota in Alvin, Tx (suburb of Houston) for nearly 13,000 below MSRP. Had em backed against the ropes with 11000 below Sticker but while waiting in their customer lounge with free internet, I peeped into this forum and found out about the additional rebate of 2K for flashing my DBA. While in with the "Business Manager", I hit em with the knockout blow by mentioning the Business Solutions Rebate. I then had to redo the credit ap showing my business as the buyer and myself as the guarantor (co-borrower) and BAM / VOILLA, another 2grand was taken off!!!! MSRP for my truck was $38,976 and I drove out paying 26,000+TTL   specs- SILVER W/BLACK INTERIOR. (RARE FOR THE SOUTH AND THE PERFECT TRUCK FOR A RAIDERS FAN) Crewmax WITH SLIDING REAR WINDOW, 5.7 LTR ENGINE,6SPD AUTOMATIC , TRACTION CTRL, FOGLIGHTS, MATS, RUNNIG BOARDS, DAY LAMPS, HEATED MIRRORS, EJ - JBL SYSTEM, BLUETOOTH, EXTRA MILE OPTION PKG B, XM SATELLITE, OF - TRD OFFROAD PKG, P4 - VEHICLE SHIELD PKG, FE - 50STATES EMISSIONS, BARELY LEGAL WINDOW TINT AND A FULL TANK OF GAS.
#667 of 745 Why won't they take my order for 5 units? by blckislandguy Sep 27, 2008 (4:22 pm)
Toyota continues to amaze me. Unlike every other manufacturer, they insert a "distributor" between the dealer and the factory. This adds cost and hassle to the transaction. All the local dealer can sell is what the "distributor" orders from Toyota. In the Northeast the distributor pushes 4X4 trucks.   Case in point: I'd like to buy 5 two wheel drive standard cab Tundras with the 5.7 engine and 8' box for my company. No can do. The distributor for New England doesn't order them like this, preferring to push 4X4.. Sorry guys. I'd like my spec, not yours. I figure that a Tundra if specced like that would have all the capability and durability of a 3/4 ton pickup (the payload is over 2000 pounds). As a fleet buyer we don't want 4X4. This is nuts.
