I know what you mean but it seems like that is the way most people do it.

Hi Gail, Here is how the Toyota process works: https://www.4runner6g.com/forum/threads/2025-4runner-ordering-and-allocations-explained.1233/

Thank you for the nice explanation. I still wonder whether the ECU on modern vehicles can change the timing enough that you don't half to worry as much about the fuel being used.

Must be for those people taking the high speed runs out in the Mojave desert. ;)

I suspect that different parts of the U.S. have different low end octane ratings. You are probably just used to seeing 87 octane in your area.

Since the engine is designed for 87 octane wouldn't the computer adjust for the added altitude? What am I missing?

As I mentioned in another post, I've had very poor luck purchasing a truck across regional lines. Two dealers blocked me from doing so. I've heard it said that dealers want to keep you local so that you will spend your money with them on servicing your new vehicle.

You're welcome. I believe that Balise Toyota of Warwick is the largest dealer in RI. Scratch that. I just took a look at there customer service ratings and they are terrible. It appears that Valenti Toyota in Westerly, RI has a great customer rating.

Congrats! I think that you'll really enjoy it.

Since different TRD Pro's get allocated to different dealers, I think that it would be valuable to get on the list with whichever the biggest dealer is in each state within your region. I would contact one dealer per state. Here is the Toyota region map in case you don't know it:

Just be aware that if you are shopping out of your region that dealers usually won't sell you a vehicle. I tried to purchase a truck twice out of region and been shut down both times.

Thank you.

This is wonderful! Do you happen to know if there is one for the Tacoma? I have a good friend who is looking for one.

I take it that under one of the front seats didn't work?

Just tried to purchase this truck but was told that they were going to save this model for in state people. I'm from Maine. What a bummer! :mad:

Thanks for the tip!

I wonder why they show up in the builder but not on the inventory page. Seems strange. The same thing is happening for the Trailhunter.

It all depends on what you are planning on using your truck for. Compared to fixed running boards motorized running boards can add extra weight and maintenance, while taking away better body protection.

The sales tax in the state that you are purchasing the vehicle from is 6%. So...$69,369 X 6% = $4,162.14 So, yes it's that much. You always pay whatever the sales tax is in the state that you are purchasing the vehicle from, not your own state.
