What did you guys pay?
Was wondering what you guys paid? MSRP? I recently bought a 2016 Tacoma but it's just not my thing. It's was too hard on gas. I was wondering if it's worth trading it in?
Thanks! |

A bit under MSRP but not much. They have you by the balls here since there are no other dealers. If you're buying this thing as a DD and for fuel economy and commute with traffic in the morning, good luck with that. I was getting 22mpg before supercharging and 20mpg after. The people that aren't sitting in traffic all day do significantly better, more like 28-30. Oh also, the gas tank is like this big:

I'm getting 18MPG on the Tacoma & about $45 every 5 days on gas. Waipahu > Kahala commute. Wasn't the brightest idea to buy a Tacoma. |

But let's say you have V6 RWD AT, it's rated 19/24, and you average 18. If you get FR-S MT, it's rated 22/30, and you probably average 20 or 21. Let's say it's 21 to make it better. Your MPG will be 17% better. You will be spending $38.50 every 5 days instead. But, premium gas costs about 8% more. So, you will be spending $41.50 every 5 days. Which means, you will be saving $3.5 of gas cost every 5 days. That's $21 a month. Not sure how much more the insurance will cost, but let's say it will be $10 more a month. Then you will be saving $10 a month by switch the car. You will probably lose $5k or so by getting rid of your truck so soon. It will take over 40 years to gain back your loss from the saving by switching car. |
