First off, I know there's a deticated forum for this but it doesn't get much traffic so I hope this doesn't get moved.

I was looking at toyotas website and it looks like the incentive will end 7.7.08 and seeing as i've priced and built my tundra about 234 times I think i'll pay a dealer a visit soon. I was just wondering if anyone recomended any dealers in socal..misssion viejo to be exact. I have Power Toyota near by but I was reading online reviews and they were AWFULL! Didn't find one positive review.

Also, if I find what im looking for or what not..is 10k or so off MSRP too much to ask for? Just trying to get an idea of what kind of deal I can get. This will be my first NEW vehicle as i've always bought private party. Anywho.. Thanks in advance for replies/advise!

Try getting internet quotes from several dealers. The local dealer here was knocking $7500 off last week. The truck I happen to be looking at was a DC 5.7 4x4 and the sales price was around 26K. The sales guy suggested they were even discounting from that price.

dealers in Oxnard knocked 9500 off msrp in their ads. they will go another 1-2 thousand off.
dealer in Thousand oaks knocked 10,000 off to counter, they then try and negotiate you into a loan at 20% or 8,000 in interest. Ridiculous. That or all the posts about them being crooks were wrong.

10,000 off msrp, with 10% to negotiate if you can be smart enough to not haggle over monthly payment amounts and just the out the door price.

Bring a calculator with you to speed things up. Do not be fooled by their deception. Toyota of Thousand Oaks is just criminal in their deception.
