Default Best site to find invoice prices with all options?

I checked out cars.com but it doesn't have invoice for many of the tundra options.

Can any of you recommend other web sites you'd recommend for checking out invoice prices?

I have a quote for an 08 tundra 5.7 double cab limited with the following options for $38.6 and am trying to figure out if this is over or under invoice minus the cash rebate.

TRD package
Daytime Running Lights
Backup Camera/monitor
Preferred accessory package
Tube Steps Chrome

MSRP $40999

Thanks everyone.

After looking at all of these sites, KBB (Kelly Blue book) was the best as it gives MSRP and invoice for both factory and port installed options.

Since lots of folks are getting trucks for invoice - cash back, it seems I still need to negotiate further.

Based on the info on this site, I was able to determine that invoice - cash incentive on this truck would be $34,359 so the quote I got still has some padding in it.

Time to go back to the dealer...

Thanks for all of the great info.

It's been mentioned many times, but just remember that the dealer's invoice probably won't match what you see on KBB, Edmund's, etc... Toyota charges it's dealers for their advertsing and itemize the charge on the invoice, called TDA. It's usually between $400-$600. It is a legitimate fee, so don't be surprised if the invoices are slightly off.

The internet sites are great to give you a ballpark on the invoice, but in (most) cases, they will never match completely. Just assume ~$500 in addition to the invoice you see on-line when shopping around or fielding quotes.

Invoice to $1000 back of invoice + the rebates (which you get regardless) is a pretty solid deal from what most report.

Thanks for the feedback on this. It seems to make sense to me - it sounds like invoice + $1K - cashback at delivery is what folks are saying is a reasonable offer at this point in time.

I'll try it and see what happens.

Just ask your dealer for a copy of their invoice. Never had an issue getting a copy as a serious buyer.

I know dealers need to make money, but for the Tundra $1k over invoice sounds very high... unless you live in nowhere land with only 1 dealer in town.

Thanks, ultratech.

I agree with you now that I have read more posts. It seems like somewhere near invoice - customer cashback is where most folks are landing.

So there's no confusion - I said "invoice to $1000 back (below) of invoice."

After that price is inked, you can decide whether you want to take the cash or a low apr.
