Recommended SoCal dealers?

Hey everyone, I'm located in so cal and I'm finally going to get a 2016. Can anybody recommend a dealer in So Cal that's great to deal with and is willing to negotiate on price? Thanks in advance.

 

Crickets...

 

2wd or 4wd? If 4wd forget about it, I had to go out of state.

 

I bought in Oregon. Dealers are stingy in Cali.

Check the Costco auto buying program if u are a member

 

Yeah everyone is right about price.

Tacoma's sell so quickly that dealership owners and GM's aren't really willing to bend. I've only seen $500 below at this point.

As far as a dealership to deal with, I happen to know a guy.

My gf's father is one of the fleet managers at Norwalk Toyota and he's one of the most honest and considerate individuals I know. He's been there for a couple of decades and is good at his job.

So, if you'd like to get his cell phone number and give him a call, just send me a private message.

Either way, good luck on getting a '16! I love mine!

 

what are those konig countersteer x-type? Tire size and lift?

 

Yes to the wheels.

Toyo open country a/t ii's 265/70/17

 

Oh,

5100/885 at 0.85 up front and 5100/icon AAL with stock overload removed.

 

this isn't in socal, but central Valley, two dealer here gave me good qoute. Merced toyota gave me 1k over invoice on a 4x4 off-road dcsb no tech and Madera beat that with 700 over invoice on 4x4 off-road dcsb with tech/jbl. Greg is from merced and Javier is from madera, these are the people i talk to

 

Just to clarify.

My (almost) father in-law can do $0 mark up on any Tacoma that IS NOT a TRD PRO.

He just can't really get away with $ below invoice.

 

Sounds interesting man, can you ask him what a 4x2 dcsb sr5 would cost? If it's in a good ball park it might just work out. Black gray or silver.

 

No offense, but I'm really not trying to get that involved.

For me, this is more of a good for you/good for him kind of situation. I don't get kick backs in any way, just offering up the connection and shouting him out.

I think at the very least you will find him extremely helpful. I know he has a great relationship with other dealerships and can work out trades to get the truck you need if it's not on his lot.

He's just a good guy to know with Toyota.

So yeah, if you'd like his cell, send me a message and I'll gladly give it to you.

Have a great night!

 

I purchased my 2015 right when it landed in august 2014, the best I could've gotten a 2014 DCSB OR TRD was $800 under msrp(but none were available). Paid MSRP plus tax on the 2015, bought an extended warranty and put $1000 down. Right now I'm sitting on 6-7k equity with this truck, with any other vehicle I'd be lucky to have half that equity.

I only deal with fleet managers, I can't stand dipshit salesmen. And it doesn't hurt to have a great credit score or already be pre approved thru your bank, you deal with a lot less bullshit from the finance department.

 

I was getting my trans fluid checked today and looked at some of the new Tacomas on the lot today. I saw one that was an sr5 4x2 dcsb with an aftermarket lift, rims, tires, and running boards. Stupid truck was 40k. Marked up 10k for the "upgrades" reminds me why I didn't do business with these guys in Cali.
