Another (soon to be) Tundra newbie

Greetings all. I’ve been looking at the new Tundras for a couple of months and am about ready to pull the trigger and join this community. I’ve always been a “big three” guy but really like the Gen3 Toyota trucks.

I have been impressed by the wealth of knowledge and civility on this forum and am hopeful you guys can help me with a couple of questions before I sign:

-The consensus seems to be that extended warranties are a worthwhile investment. Can someone point me the best place to buy one?

-I’ve seen a couple of recent comments stating that Tundra prices are dropping. Would you recommend I buy now or wait a bit longer? This won’t be my primary vehicle.

Thanks in advance for your help. I’m sure I’ll have a ton of other questions but don’t want to make my opening post any longer.

 

Welcome to the forum! I bought my warranty from FD-Warranty and the price was extremely good. Troy really has great prices to offer and had it done the same day I emailed him.
As for the pricing, shop around and find the dealer that has the best offer to give for the truck you want. I bought mine back in February and saved around 5,000 and was very happy with that. But will only buy from one certain dealer in my state so wasn’t going to waste time shopping around. With the economy the way it is the dealers seem like the want to move inventory but also the tundra is selling better then it ever has before, so who really knows how long deals will last or when will be the best time to get a great deal. People are saying to wait till summer but no one really knows. Hope you are able to find the truck you want with the best discount you can find! Always nice to walk away from the dealer thinking you won (even though they always win)!

 

Welcome from LA (Lower Alabama)! The extended warranty is good for peace of mind if you plan to keep the truck for long enough for it to matter. Of course the goal is for it to never be needed.

I think prices have settled about as much as they're going to. You can find deals well under MSRP if you put in the effort. Good luck!

 

Thanks! This will get me started.
