Discounted and STILL Can't Sell... NEW 2024 Toyota Tacomas COLLECTING DUST?
Вставка
- Опубліковано 30 бер 2024
- Seriously, this blows my mind. The brand new 2024 Toyota Tacoma just started hitting dealership lots a month ago... Normally, whenever Toyota offers a full new redesign version of their trucks or SUVs, they sell in a heartbeat or are pre-sold for a year plus. I have seen several of you post photos of Toyota lots with several brand new 2024 Tacomas just sitting, often discounted slightly, yet not moving? That is wild. Personally, I think the Tacoma is a nice little truck. Sure, Toyota deviated from their core values and principles a little with it, but it's still a nice truck. I'm shocked it isn't selling like a hot cake, mainly for the sake of it being the "new cheese"... Are people not buying off on the changes Toyota is making as of late? People learned the hard way with the new 2022+ Tundra (myself included)... so I wonder if buyers are much more skeptical now? The quality is now questionable, being fully built in Mexico, the prices is much higher than the previous gen (WHY?), it's rocking a smaller displacement motor (which is a better performing platform compared to the NA V6 by the way)... but still a 4 banger nonetheless, that doesn't sit well with truck people.
Will this new 2024 Toyota Tacoma prove to be a flop after all? I know TFL Truck's little snafu didn't help anything. Will the reliability of this new platform prove lackluster compared to previous naturally aspirated examples? Let me know your thoughts.

Why hasn't it sold? Maybe "Made in Mexico" and $15,000 to $20,000 overpriced.
Made in mex never stopped the 3rd gen.. more like a new 4 cylinder turbo... & over priced ofcourse!!
yes, but mexico was not invading our border then, and killing Americans. screw mexico
Overpriced for sure
And no more dependable V6
Not to mention there was one that broke on TLF truck.
52k is way too much that’s the problem.
Yeah right. You'll pay it John.
@@mike111777 ok bro
They've priced mid-sized trucks out of their traditional customer base. The base price isn't great, but by the time you option them out, the price is astronomical.
exactly, at that price id save 10K and get the Pro4X I can do a LOT with a extra 10K
52k is insane for a mid-size truck.. They are just overpriced for the target market
Simple, they are overpriced. $53k for a mid grade tacoma is just wild.
$43K OTD is fair, but gthen even that's slightly on the high side. In 2024 these trucks are listed for $50k+. That is a F&%K No price. They'll learn when they sit for 120, 180, 220 days... Most dealerships pay Toyota (or whatever manufacturer monthly) for cars/trucks. It's like rent, every car/truck that sits on their dealership lot, they are paying the manufacturer for it & losing money every time that payment is due onthe vehicle that they haven't sold....
Add high interest rates and less " disposable " income ......No new truck for me -- FJB ...
These trucks shouldn't cost any more than $39,000
people aren't stupid . they will not pay 53k for a turbo4 piece of crap. not with 9 or 10% interest rates
hold on to your 3rd gen tacoma like it is gold......IT IS!
Yeah it definitely doesn’t make a whole lot of sense… =\
Better off getting the last year model
Nobody has anymore money. We are all drained, oh and it's a 4-cylinder
That’s the unfortunate truth… 👌 💯
Yeah, while the price is too high, but that crude and unrefined 4 banger engine is a deal breaker for me. I had a new Lexus RX as a loaner last week when my GX was in for service, and the 4 cylinder engine sucked.
They will sell about 300 thousand in North America in 2024 so about that many people have the money
Exactly, when you reach the point that you are put in the position of having more going out than you have coming in, it's time to hit reset.
That 4 banger isn’t a bad thing. It is a turbo 4 I force motor and makes pretty big power. Just as big as the outgoing 6. When the I force max power comes out it will be best in segment producing over 400 ft lbs at 1700 Rpm.
$53K not including tax and fees ??? Someone’s dreaming, you wont see me in a 24 Tacoma, hope it sits there a long time, nice try Toyota.
No V6 and higher price.
Yeah it’s becoming harder and harder to justify… 😔
Say it with me: STRAIGHT SIX, STRAIGHT SIX! Best configuration for any vehicle that has the space in the engine bay, which a midsized pickup certainly has. If Toyota was going to buck the EV trend the should have whipped up a solid I-6 engine, the run very smoothly, minimal vibration means long life and no need for harmonic balancers. Compared to a V6 you have half the valvetrain as well. An I-6 would make for a durable and dependable engine for a pickup. The Straight Six is also very scalable as well. Toyota could have done short and tell deck versions for use in cars, midsized and full size trucks. Same basic architecture could go in Toyotas entire front engine, rear drive lineup. For truck use a 4 valve SOHC would make a lot of sense, high performance versions could go DOHC.
People are getting smarter. Many youtubers aren't telling the truth about these manufacturers. Thanks for not being a shill.
They want those industry invites and free key chain. Hard to find an unbiased review these days.
People aren’t getting any smarter. They are running out of money and credit.
lol that in turn knocks sense into them@@edhcb9359
@@edhcb9359 And banks ain't lending sub prime anymore. Zero.
toyota, with this tacoma, has joined the ranks of disposable, throw away cars and trucks. GONE are the days of toyota durability
You can get a fully loaded Frontier Pro 4x for under $45K. And it has a solid non-turbo V6 in it!
Yeah after looking them over daily for the past few months I think I'm going to go with the frontier and I can't believe I'm saying that. I priced out the Tacoma I wanted and with a 25k down payment and trading in my vehicle the monthly payment was $760 a month for 60 months. Frontier came out to $446.
Got my Pro4X fully loaded in January for under $50k so far knock on wood ❤
Went to a local dealership here yesterday and priced a new GMC sierra 1500 that’s been sitting for several months now at 67k. The payments with a trade and a few grand down, excellent credit were still 1000.00 per month! Insane! Same with these Toyotas. Gtfo… no way.
I agree.. but the 6.2 chevy engine is not reliable... unfortunately :/
Dude you’re looking at a 67k truck that after taxes is like 71 k if you divide that by 72 with 0% rate you’re looking at 986$ at 0% rate
It seems all that we loved about Toyota trucks, is gone.
They're cashing in on their brand now because why not? There is no competition against them. They're doing what German brands did in the 2000's. Who's really going to step up on reliability? Honda? lol Honda busy ruining their engines to meet emissions. Toyota is throwing out "order" and joining the chaotic wild west. Only Made in Japan Toyota's will have that reliability we expect because Japanese hold their corporations to a higher standard. In the west we have no standards other than bright, new and shiny.
I just love them more and more. Im also not broke like most people in these comments.
Exactly
I quit loving them after the second gen taco. That's 9 years now. But the 4 runner and GX 460 are still good. But soon they to will be turbo junk.
@@PWCDNare any of the Tacoma models made in Japan?
At the end you keep saying “you get what you pay for, you get what you pay for.” But….you actually aren’t getting what you pay for with this gen.
Yeah we still pay a premium… but Toyota will get what they pay for. Will just take a couple years for them to see their reward. 😉
actually the quality and reliability has actually headed to the crapper ! I have a 17 year old tacoma that has never had a repair, only maint of the vehicle. and my nebors tacoma is alway in the shop for something. the old tacoma was made in KY USA AND the nebors was made Mexico. between the blood thirsty dealers and the turbo 4 cylinder that will never last Toyota in USA going down hill in very quick!
Yes I was wondering about that as well. That didn't make sense lol.
@@ottokittel709 My 2012 Tacoma TRD Sport Double Cab Short Bed was manufactured at Toyota Motor Manufacturing in Baja California, Mexico-a genuine Taco. I placed a special order for mine, and the build quality was exceptional. It has required no major repairs. The fact that it wasn't made in the USA doesn't detract from the quality control or the build quality.
I want you to go to your window and open it and yell at the top of your lungs, " I AM MAD AS HELL AND NOT GOING TO TAKE THIS ANYMORE" Until we all decide we have had enough with manufactures and dealers over charging , along with CEOs of these car companies making 27 million dollars a year nothing will change. You simply need to stop buying, and take care of the car you currently own. To institute change we are all going to have to accept a little pain for greater gain down the road.
I hope you guys all do. New vehicles become even more expensive status symbols if that happens. I don’t want the cheap truck I think most buyers are happy to pay the premium just to say they did.
I work at a Toyota dealership service department. Yes the prices are insane! The little we have gotten have sold but that is to the chosen few. Many are upset about the price, interest and engine options. The price is more then the price of a very low mileage Tundra in some cases. There needs to be an adjustment in all areas!
Hopefully Toyotas greed catches up with them. I own a 23 Tacoma Offroad and refuse to buy this new shitbox they call a Tacoma. No V6, crazy prices, and they got rid of arguably the best color Lunar Rock. I'll be buying a new Frontier eventually, no more Tacomas.
Can we just get down to brass tacks? The price...#1 problem. No V6 #2 problem...Made in Mexico #3.
52,000 plus high interest rates=no one buying. FWIW you can find full sized trucks from the big 3 in lower trim levels for lower than this price.
“There's a sucker born every minute". P. T. Barnum
True, someone will buy.
@@jmyers6175 not soon enough though.
Honestly, im leaning towards the nissan Pro4x. Its 10k cheaper, built with US labor vs mexican, and has a less complex powertrain.
Exactly...All of the reviews and news I've read on the Frontier Pro-4x has been positive and when I decide to buy a new truck this will probably be the one that I'll pick.
Enjoy your valves being casket to hell with carbon after no time. Nissans DI system is shit.
Listen the American labor over mexican? Have you been to the plant in mexico? The American plant? Nissan has bigtime issues with absenteeism . Mexico , they work well in the Toyota plant.
@BX_Staff-Home this isn't a quality of labor issue, it's a cost of labor. Toyota reduced the cost of labor in the tacoma by 90 percent vs the US and gave us a more expensive vehicle in the process. In not rewarding that.
Went to my local Toyota and Nissan dealers. Toyota added $5k market adjustment. Nissan SOLD, $6k under MSRP.
$52,000 that is why
They will never go down in price, keep what you have and take care of them.
$53K for a Tacoma?!? Insane!
I bought a new tundra limited in 2016 for $43k. I simply won’t buy another truck until prices come down about 30%. I’m fine with holding onto my truck another 8 years.
Hold out for that 10 cent candy bar and 25 cent a gallon of gas while you are at it.
@@IP0Monsturd prices have already fallen 15-20% on garbage CDJR stuff. The discounts off MSRP are getting larger. By mid year they will be down even more. Glad I wasn’t a moron and bought a car the last few years.
You my have to hold on to it 16 years,good luck.
@@JA-zh5xi only a moron would think the UAW is going to give up a nickel of their wages much less 30%. But you keep on dreaming Skippy.
prices are through the roof with the cost of a 2024 sr5 on the 2023 model you could get a full decked out sr5 or even better full decked out trd off road. I don't think people are going to pay that much when other brands are selling mid size trucks with similar or even better setups for a way lower price.
Yeah right. You'll pay it Navid.
Toyota Financial is offering 9% APR for excellent credit, on top of the astronomical prices. It's a joke.
Paid 41k out the door in 2019 for my 2020 Tacoma TRD sport 4x4. I will never pay 50k+ for a midsize truck
Damn $41k for a 4x4?!? Sounds like you got a steal.
Inflation since 2019 is over 22% so that 41k plus 22%, you paid 50k in today's money.
@Swen-bk3kz you’re an idiot 😂
@@TheDanny23rivera so that home your parents bought for 3k in 1957, if you account for inflation, they actually paid 800k for.. GTFOH 🤣🤣
Lmaooooo bro you was crazy to pay 41k for a midsize truck back in 2019 Inflation bro
I really enjoy your videos. Some people on UA-cam don't always tell the truth about companies that make things. Thank you for being honest and not pretending to like something just because someone paid you to. Keep on the good work!!
Interest rates are too high. We are waiting until they drop significantly.
They are at historical norms. The low rates are causing inflation.
@@billricheter5678 the govt borrowing money to overspend on garbage is what causes inflation
I paid for my Limited 21 Tundra, CM, 4x4, premium package $51k. Now, three years later, this tiny truck that is not even Limited costs more than my Tundra, screw that.
@@billw8476 that is a contributor for sure. However keeping interest rates too low for too long was the biggest driver. There were people that even demanded negative rates.
The price is too high not the interest rate.. Interest rates are historic norms and price is about 10-15k too high
With the huge hike in housing costs, food, insurance, plus everything else you better get used to 50k+ vehicles sitting a long time
Make the dealerships/manufacturers squirm again!
Exactly! They've priced these vehicles this way in an economy where customers are already struggling just to keep their households running. Lord willing, I'll drive what I have until it won't go anymore.
I would rather buy a Nissan frontier pro 4x for 10k less compare to 24 tacoma and it’s still make in America. Even that 24 tacoma having a 5k discount I wouldn’t even touch it. Make in Mexico with a huge price jump. Consumer need to wake up..
Good choice
My local dealership have plenty of new Tacoma's on their lot and they are asking $1000 above msrp. I guess they are stuck in 2021/2022 still. 🤣
That’s 53k before taxes and all the other stuff, and that’s if you can pay cash. Then you’ve got a loan with a goodness know what APR % over however many years.. for most people could end up being a 60k+ truck, it’s utterly insane money for a mid size truck.
Let’s be honest…
Those of us whom are intelligent and understand finance would not purchase these overpriced inflated vehicles. It’s that simple especially with stealership markups
They got SR5s priced at $45k with no options. Meanwhile, you could get an optioned out Colorado Trailboss/LT or Loaded Frontier Pro-4X for the same price. The reputation of reliability can only sell for so long until people are managing to do the same thing with better options
Well-equipped 2024 Colorado Trail Boss with convenience package and advanced trailering package is $40K even. Closer to $10K lower MSRP than Tacoma.
Ranger XLT high package 4x4 with rear locker power rear sliding window power seats $45k
New Frontier Pro4Xs are in my area for 39 and 40k. That's 6+ grand cheaper than a basic 24 Tacoma Offroad. Frontier is the way go go, F toyota with these new ugly things they are calling Tacomas. I have a 23 Tacoma Offroad and REFUSE to buy one of these ugly overpriced 4cyl turbo junk.
The markup is built into the price. $52k for a regular TRD is nuts.
Nobody wants the 4 cylinders turbo engine, I'll keep my 4.0 V6 tacoma
I paid around 30K for my 2018 Tacoma Crew Cab, Long Bed SR5. V-6…still looks and drives great. I will be keeping it….no 4Cy turbo trucks for me.
Toyota or not, Toyota and the dealerships are out of their minds if the majority will pay that much for a mid-size truck!
Just too expensive for what you get!
The price of the new Tacoma is ridiculous. You can get a ZR2 Colorado for less than a TRD Off Road.
You can buy a loaded Colorado Trail Boss for thousands less than a stripped Tacoma SR5.
Frontier PRO-4X for 46, a TRD PRO will be in the 60s
@@littlestinker9716Loaded 😂😂😂
Yes and you can buy a bicycle for 400$. The Colorado has never been comparable to a Taco.
@@user-pw8fu8ji9ronly thing would be reliability, other than that Colorado has all the things that Tacoma has for cheaper
Maybe if these trucks got somewhere in the high 20’s for mpg’s but its the same mpg my 3rd gen gets so what’s the appeal for these even?
Seen this new Tacoma in person for the first time. Nice truck not a radical.change from the 3rd gen but they are more expensive than 3rd gens. The problem is a lot of 3rd gen owners are not giving up the V6 over the Turbo 4
50k for a four-banger made in Mexico.
They know they can charge a premium for a vehicle made outside the us. I agree who would want a truck built in the states.
The 2022 SRS TRD Tundra was 52k in 2022. None of these prices make.
I don't think that truck would sell for $40k. I think manufacturers are screwed. I certainly hope they keep interest rates high, and honestly I'd like to see double digit hikes.
Nice 40k truck.
Should be $22k at most
@@cs1992You're delusional if you're expecting a new car to be 22k beyond a compact hatchback. Stick to used cars.
40-45ish is what I would expect but man. From mid size to full size it’s ridiculous how expensive things are. Every manufacture is asking too much for their products
While I was having maintenance done on my 22 Tacoma, I looked at the one 24 Tacoma the dealership had. It was a SR and was going for $41,000 with no markup. That’s a lot for a base midsize truck.
That's the issue with this new model- same price for a stripped truck as a fully loaded version was 6 months ago.
50K plus for a 4 banger ontop of dealer markups equals no thanks.
If Toyota priced this fully loaded TRD sport at $42,000, I’d come in tomorrow and buy it
There’s probably a ZR2 across the street for 48k. A quantum leap in capability and features/options, and a 5k savings?? Score!
These new toyota and lexus products are going to sit like rams soon
I’ve seen very few in LA area in California . People are not buying like the old ones .
Back in 2006 bough a new Tacoma crew cab, 4x4 Sport package for 29k. Now they go 53k!! That is crazy.
I’m a single male nurse in California . Don’t know anything about cars . Went to Toyota and almost bought the Tacoma SR5. Came here and read the comments …. So glad I did not buy it lol very informative stuff in comments and video .

Five years ago, people were getting 10% off MSRP and getting TRD Offroad and Sports for under $40k out the door, including taxes and fees in many cases. Now, without the premium package, you're looking at $55k plus after taxes and fees for the same or similar vehicle. I hope these trucks sit and rot; what a rip-off!
Well my 2017 trd 4x2 off-road was made in Mexico & I can say that they do a horrible job in wrapping wires under the hood with the plastic wire loom, I can do way much better of a job then they do.. every wire loom at the ends are not suppose to be left open, they are to be wrapped with electrical tape then wrapped on to the plastic wire loom, & looking at the main wires the cluster of them that goes into the rubber wire harness grommet near the brake booster is completely exposed, that rubber grommet should be tapped tight around the wires not being exposed to keep out bugs & debris & from wires moving around that could very well cause damage to the wires, these manufactures have gotten lazy thru the years on this its poor quality control & yet charge thousands more for poor quality..
Same with my 2019

Well no shit. You train people , get them educated and they can start getting better paying jobs elsewhere, so you have to pay them more. That’s the fucking point of farming out to unskilled labor.

Turbocharged 2.4-liter four-cylinder🔧 is a Terribile idea!
I rather have the 2.4L Turbo than the previous setup. Do not get me wrong, the V6 Toyota engine is great, but they did this stupid Atkinson cycle version for the Tacoma, and it literally ruined that engine.

Because last 2 years, people were buying cars left and right, paying 6-9% APR. Lots of people are underwater
Just wait for the Hybrid to come out. 60k+ tor a mid? Get outta here.
In Alaska they usually put market adjustment the first year. They had them in January, but not now. The new Tacoma is completely overpriced.
Nobody want a turbo that means it will not last as long, and way too much engine pressure...2023 V6 last of the line.
The discount gonna only get bigger as production increases. We’ll be seeing these at invoice or under in a year or two
Why would 99% of people that are looking for a midsize truck, pay 53k for the Tacoma, when you can get a Pro4X Frontier for 10k less? You can also get a new 2024 Tundra SR5 for that price.
Can't keep em on lots near me. I think it's funny how quickly people forget what lots were like prior to covid. They were full and you had plenty to choose from. No one is buying cars because the interest rates are trash
Exactly.
Pre-COVID, the Toyota dealers near me had nearly a football field worth of Tacomas just sitting there in stock.
After a few years of no inventory, we're getting back to NORMAL now.
Even last year, supply was low as people who wanted the last of the V6 Tacomas were snapping them up rather quickly.
Great points! The price hike is definitely a turn-off, especially considering the move to Mexico. I'd rather wait for a used 2023 or see if Toyota budges on the price of the 2024. Maybe they'll offer some better deals to clear out these early lots.
What dealerships are discounted '24s? Def not in Northern VA!
Then shop around ez
I was on the market for a Tacoma in 2022. An unforeseen circumstance with my wife’s car made me get her a new one and abandon my quest to get the Tacoma. I paid my car and motorcycle this year and wanted to get the Tacoma, but Toyota priced me put. There is no way I’m paying the absurd prices they are asking. I decided to go with the Frontier Pro 4X instead.
I totally agree on long term quality re: Mexico. It does make me hesitate to be a Tacoma buyer.
Bought a 2017 Tacoma made in Mexico and it has 195,000 miles no issues
It is well understood that these plants must adhere to the same assembly line standards as American plants. Do people really believe these trucks are assembled outdoors in a sand lot? LOL
@@hunterstokely8438 My 2012 is just fine too. A true taco made in Mexico.
3rd Gens were partially assembled in Mex. Engines, transmissions, diffs were pre assembled in Japan and then bolted on the vehicle in Mex. Now, the vehicle is completely assembled in Mex; no more subassemblies from Japan. Not only is there no Japanese assembly work anymore, not only is it 4cyl but, dear buyer, have a middle finger on top for having everything done in Mex for the sake of maximizing profit.
Bring the manufacturing back to the United States, and I'll consider buying one. 🇺🇸
The Motor is the problem if you ask me, just isn’t up to snuff with what it should have been. Typical for Toyota but 🤷♂️
They drain out American workers by shifting jobs outside the U.S. then bring it back to the country expected to sell! I prefer it made here in America. They made it cheap then sold high, I wished they going out of business!
It’s a good plan. People don’t want American built anything. Here in Canada if you asked most people if they wanted a truck assembled in Mexico or the states, bring on that Mexican made truck. I’m finally buying one because that boat anchor v6 is gone and they are finally no longer built in the states

I'm a loyal Toyota owner from a family that has owned a lot of Toyotas, but this time my dismay over their new pricing scheme exceeds my desire to even test drive the new trucks. I'll be happy to watch someone else drive a new TRD down the road, only instead of feeling excited for them I'll be wondering how much of their savings they had to cash in to get it.
So let them sit there and rust on the lot. Current interet rates mean the average car payment in the US is now over $500, plus insurance. We are not all UA-camrs who can just pick one up and start modding it.
The Toyota Highlanders are the same way as they're sitting on lots not getting sold as people are disgusted with the new engines in them as nobody wants a four-cylinder hybrid or a 4 cylinder turbo. Funny how Honda's are picking up in sales.
Biggest problem with Highlander is it's ugly. Grand Highlander looks 10x better and is selling well with the same powertrains.
@@littlestinker9716 My sister wanted a new Highlander and the older used ones with the V6 cost more than a newer ones as the Toyota salesperson said the new Highlander was their worst selling vehicle now, so we went next door to the Honda dealership and got a Pilot with a V6.

Toyota needs a sub 30k truck.
hilux, but then Americans want fancy. there is no satisfying Americans. They want their cake and eat it too.
local dealership here is only getting the Sr5 no thrills or frills super basic and charging 50-52k. i decided on making a purchase to a GMC Canyon AT4 , wanted the Zr2 colorado just a couple k shy those were hard to come across, sold like hot cakes as soon as or even before they arrived on the lot.
A cheaper made product that is sold for more money is less appealing. The new driver annoyance (safety) package doesn't help.
Makes me excited for the new 4runner **Sarcasm. Glad I got my 5th gen 4runner trd pro over this gen tacoma last month. For a few extra cash, you get a better truck/suv, the quality is much better. Slapping a 10 in screen in the interior does not justify the mark up on cars...
a trd pro how much you pay, still way overpriced sorry. toyota is a overpriced brand.
Enjoy your Toyota (esp Tacoma) videos. Untamed. I think with high msrp and high interest rates. They will sit on the lots.
Mostly ice cap appears to be the ones sitting on the lot. Up here in New England there flying off the lots from what I can see.
Toyota is self-destructing by offering only turbo charged motors for Tacoma, Tundra and 4Runners... plus moving more production to Mexico doesn't help.
They used to build Tacomas in Fremont California former GM plant now Tesla manufacturing
Too over priced and interest rates are mind blowing. Protest with your dollar.
Local dealership nearby cant keep any. They are sold almost immediately
My 3rd gen from Mex is pretty trash sadly. Still haven't figured out the steering issue. Also, with the hybrid powertrain coming, why bother.
45 year toyota fan boy, they have lost me with mexican junk and stealership BS and there prices!
52k for a Tacoma?! F off Toyota
Not the case in my market. My dealer got its first allocation two days ago. Five trucks came in, and there is one left 48 hours later.
In 2019 I worked at Toyota in a small ish town and we had a white pro tundra that had been sitting for a while and we discounted it from $54k to $52k which is rare since Toyota doesn’t offer rebates on them….thats why its sitting
Only UA-camrs can buy this and make content out of it. And for the avg joes……. They are going to get 3-5 yrs old used Tacoma lol
