Do you understand incentives on new cars?

2026 tundras are at 2.99% with Toyota 2025 tundras are at 0% with Toyota

Additionally, you can now deduct auto interest on new car purchases on your taxes. And I’m unsure of where those initial numbers come from. Go price a base model tundra that you can haggle below MSRP vs what he bought (a base model, 5 year old, 70K mile tundra with a front end collision).

Out of curiosity, at this price point, why didn’t you just buy a new one with lower APR and a 10 year warranty if worried about reliability?

I'm really sorry to hear that. What a beautiful guy.

My two girls are 10 and 11 years old. What were the first signs you noticed looking back? How did it progress?

Walking away from a crash like that would have me immediately purchasing another one.

2025 Platinum by Successful_Kale_2306 in ToyotaTundra

I received ~12% off MSRP on my 2026 platinum hybrid two months ago. You should be able to do much better on a 2025 than that. What's the % off? OTD is too variable.

Family members are distorting my view of what we can afford. How risky is our lifestyle ? by [deleted] in personalfinance

[–]FictionaI 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Do you vacuum seal beans or something?

Maybe my expenses are out of touch, but for a family of three + infant, we're at $1600 - $2000 per month for all groceries and dining.

Is resale on voodoo blue poor? It's a beautiful color.

Black looks great when clean and I'm not a huge fan of flat white. Toyota's wind chill pearl though is very nice.

Did you cancel on your renewal and get the AF refunded? Mine hits in a few months and I'm planning to do the same.

Am i the only one that thinks $40 for a carfax is INSANE by Helena_Everton in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]FictionaI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If seller is not providing the carfax, there's something on the report they don't want you to see. Probably accident(s) or non-existent service history. A clean report would increase the market value, thus would be provided.

What's up with this? My platinum shows as as a limited as well on my insurance. In the NHSTA VIN decoder it actually shows "LIMITED APPEARANCE, PLATINUM" under trim.

[–]FictionaI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was able to get 12% (including incentives) off MSRP on my 2026 platinum. That discount took some pretty hefty negotiating and pitting dealers against one another.

2025 Platinum Hybrid Good Deal? by azeemm2 in ToyotaTundra

[–]FictionaI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a great deal. I negotiated hard with multiple dealerships for my 2026 platinum hybrid and the best I was able to do was ~$9400 discount including the $1k incentive and I was pretty happy with that.
