So you can't order a truck to spec anymore at Toyota? How long has this been a thing?

I just want to know if anyone has been able to order an F150 and lock in the rebates and price when you order.

I tried to order a Sienna last year and it was a fiasco. 0/10 do not recommend.

You can if you find the right dealer.

No idea about what the dealership would do, but I specked out a Corolla on their national website, and they had all the available options. Looked like it could be processed all right there.

Always. I had to fly to St Louis to buy my last Toyota. You can search which vehicles and specs are going to each dealership and you call them. If the buyer backs out they’ll call you. I paid $2250 over MSRP, but the vehicle is slick as duck shite.

I have never had any problems ordering from my local dealership

My ol lady ordered a 4Runner 3 weeks ago. It wasn’t difficult at all.

Forever I think. You can't special order a toyota I'm pretty sure. When you build one on their website, it will just show matches close to you. They aren't going to take your order with your options and build it just for you (like porsche or someone like that would).

Toyota doesn’t really do orders, but I wouldn’t worry too much. It would be cool to be order every detail like Porsche but that isn’t the Toyota business model. The dealer by me house around 65-70 tundras on the lot.
Last year when I was looking they had 5 or 6 any given day.

I ordered a 2024 Tercel last month. Was a pretty easy process.

Every Tacoma I've purchased, I just tell my sales guy the exact specs I'm looking for and they search within their distribution network. If you're buying in BR, it's a good practice to shop 2 distribution channels. For example, Baton Rouge dealer and a Mobile, AL dealer. You eliminate any run around regarding, "we can't find one"

You can't go to their website and get this done? I go to car brand websites from time to time to customize a vehicle for the hell of it and I am pretty sure you can get what you want one way or another. They usually give you information after you customize as to how you can order the vehicle you want.

Covid was the best thing to happen to the shyster car dealers and manufacturers. They know rednecks will pay whatever they ask to keep Baw status.

I recall the “ordering” process with Toyota being more of a “a vehicle with the options you want is on its way to some dealership in another state but we can get it redirected here” sort of situation.

Go on Toyota enthusiast forums. There are specific options which will delay your build (like a hard top on a Bronco cost more than 9 months over a soft top.)
Buy it on Toyota.com. No BS dealer markups, either.
