....The difference between a collector car, and your car, is 1 accident.

That's what the dealer is doing in the OP too. LOL
ok let me be clear ... ALL I was pointing out was that these guys are bitching about what a toyota dealer is doing, while most of them are ford guys ignoring the fact that ford dealers do it as well (not all but a LOT of them do). I begrudge no one whatever they can get for their cars and that include dealer ADMs. I think people who pay them are crazy tho. but as has been said there is an ass for every seat

I get it. I'm just being clear that dealers aren't the only ones that ask a lot for their product ;)

I really wasn't trying to rustle anyone's jimmies, as I think it's asinine to ask $22k over for a mass produced Toyota haha

Unpossible. I checked the ad again, no mention of an accident.

I'm sure that, as a long time SVTP member who often talks about the old days when you wouldn't get away with shit, Dave would certainly disclose an accident when trying to sell a Terminator for top dollar.

We complain about it, but it’s capitalism at work. Get as much as you can when you can.

Does the ad mention rim leaning?

Keep in mind, there are STILL idiots out here in SoCal who paid a dealer markup for their Gen2 Raptor or GT350 .. LMAO :D

That's very poorly written. As that's written, there will always be idiots who paid a dealer markup for their Gen2 Raptor or GT350.

What you meant to say, is:

"Keep in mind there are STILL idiots out here in SoCal PAYING a dealer markup for their Gen2 Raptor or GT350 .. LMAO :D"

remember that FORD dealers have done and still do the same crap when it comes to a car they think is "desirable"

Exactly, just look at all the Bullits @ $5k over that will be worth as much as any other 2019 GT in 2 years. Good for the dealers. That Toyota dealer will have to sell 200 Camry's to make that same profit.

Sry to hijack, @13COBRA so true!! I meant to start a new post a couple months ago when you helped me out, this in Adam, you helped me negotiate a deal on a 2018 LFG Lariat F150, I bought it in Vegas bc all dealers around me would not discount anywhere near what Friendly Ford did in Vegas, so when you say ppl over pay in socal, you're dead on! A big thank you to @13COBRA for helping me out, I went with flex pay so I was able to get all rebates and 0% @66 mo

That has to be the crappiest disabled parking spot in the world. You aren't even within the lines and you still risk a door dent from the minivan to your new truck. You should boycott that establishment and illegally park at another one with wider stalls.

Just kidding. I know you wanted at least one comment.

Beautiful new truck. Congrats to you and kudos to 13 Cobra!

All the best.
