Ive been looking as well. Not much luck and Im not paying $30k+ for a used truck. Im at the point where Im just going to keep my truck just for the times I need to pull something and just pick up a used Accord to drive back and forth to work.

It’s a government conspiracy to continue to provide terrorist groups with late model pickups so they can make terror and keep us terrified.

In 2019, I bought a 2017 Tacoma for 30.5k. It had 29k miles and was loaded (4wd, manual, TRD Offroad)

I wasn't able to negotiate it down very much as there were less than 10 for sale in the US and the closest one was Mobile.

All that to say, if it has less than 35k miles and isn't a base model, 31k is close to as low as you'll be able to find at a stealership. If you shop a couple states over you might find one at $29,999

I am looking at a used Toyota Tacoma. I found one that was originally listed at $31,895, then a few weeks later it went up to $33,895, and is now back down to $32,895. How much room for negotiation is there on used vehicles and what could I get this vehicle for?



In your shoes. It's tax season and they're fluctuating the prices depending on buying trends. I've been to quite a few dealerships, and they're all firm on pricing within a few hundred bucks. The ones that aren't make me skeptical.

Find out how long it's been in inventory. Anything over 45 days is usually when the need to move motivates discounts. Most dealerships "Floorplan vehicles" which means they pay monthly interest on unsold inventory.

Vehicles that are new to inventory or in high demand will have sales people calling all of their customers that are on a "watch list" to contact them if a desired vehicle arrives. After a month, it will start costing a dealer to keep a unit on the ground.

I have a 2019 with <30k miles on it, and the dealer I bought it from offered me more than $32k last month. Not sure how much room there is.


Same. 2019 trd sport desert Sand color with 24,500 miles on it and the dealership I bought it from 2 years ago recently emailed me a quote of 31K to buy it back. It was tempting but they don't make this color anymore so I passed
