    Yeah Yogi
    Unless for some unknown reason something bad happens before I can get my trade to them, I've bought one as well.
    Two Toyota dealers just wouldn't give me enough to go new so I started looking elsewhere.

    I received an offer on a new LTZ with a tray, towbar etc that was doable and the rest as they say, is[ or should be ] history.
    Offer was not in town.

    I see they have the red Z whatever in town for 50K but it has no tow bar , tray etc

    Funny that they didn't want our money either and now they never will ......... ever, bunch of snobby barstools in this town. All they kept saying was
    1. Yes but you cant compare a Toyota with other vehicles and
    2. The resale value will be better
    3. We cant give you any better discount UNLESS you are a business, Farmlands card holder or fleet buyer if you are one of those we have different pricing

    Hey Mikee
    They told me flat out that if I could get a farmlands card they would give me a 3 thousand dollar discount
    Fuck them, my money should be just the same.
    Mine was bought new from one of the dealers I mentioned and serviced from new from the other
    They still gave me the lowest trade by over 2k from the next lowest franchise.

    The "better resale" really cracks me up. Its like "hey you can buy our ute but you have to give us an extra $15000 to hold onto so when you trade it in we can give you some of it back"
    They seem to think this is a selling point???

    I was conned with the "Great Resale" Value as well when I bought my last one.
    As far as I can see The only people that are paying these great resale values are idiots like me.
    The two Toyota dealers I attempted to buy new with are certainly not contributing back.

    Yep i found it to be under powered relative to other utes, hard riding, ugly dash, ugly looking and a sense of claustrophobia on the inside(especially the back seat).
    Oh yeah they didn't want to trade my 03 hilux and wouldn't match the farmlands deal either which pissed me off more than anything.
    Anyway onward with the Holden and time will tell but happy at the moment.
