Good price on a new 2016?

Angelo1, any large purchase gives me pause, whether it's a 20k civic or 75k cruiser. Thanks for the insight though, Money would have to truly not be an object for me to not second guess such a large purchase.

Hey, no worries at all. I see people drive up debt so fast(as to why Americans have the largest debt problem in history)they don't have even 6mo. of income or even 3mo. saved up. To be honest, I'm more of a "if you can't pay cash for it, don't buy it" unless it's a house of course. But with interest rates so low it doesn't make sense to not finance something if your money is working for you on a higher return, otherwise pay cash for it or don't buy it. Sorry, I wasn't trying to imply anything but when someone has spending anxiety it usually means their conscience is telling you something.

I'd also check the warranty. What always bugged me was the CPO warranty was better/longer than new, depending on date of service vs date of sale. Toyota financing is often a big differentiator this time of year, unless your credit union can beat it.

OK guys I got them down to 72,000 and that's including the military rebate. It's being sold as a new vehicle with just under 5000 miles I think this is as good as it can get what say you?

Thanks folks, it looks like most places are selling at or close to invoice. I'm surprised his many of these "new" trucks have some decent mileage on them (5-7000) yet the dealers still sell them as new and won't come off the price.

A lot of dealers use them as their own personal cars, then sell them as new. There was a '15 on the lot with 4500 miles when I bought mine. They had used it for 6 months (!) as a personal family ride (owners). At least they didn't try to pass it off as new. One has to be very careful, because demo cars can include cars that are track tested or offroad demos. As long as the dealer hasn't registered the demo car, it's considered new. Sometimes it's just that the car is the one they used for giving test drives (not usually with LCs, my experience was that they were super "on me" about not putting too many miles on my test drives). If the dealer is giving you a disclaimer, don't buy it.

The other advice in this thread is right on. If you're worried about the price, don't buy it.

And hey, congrats! I have the same car in the same color. Hope you love it as much as I do!

I worked at a dealership. We called people who bought demos suckers. 99.9% of them are abused.

Landcruisers, yeah they're likely driven by the GM so usually an older man or woman. But still they're not treating it like its their own car. I just couldn't do it.

Congrats to OP on purchase
