    Below MSRP now?

    Some CA dealers are still listing them as high as $10k over. I’d be happy to find one at MSRP. Still waiting on Longo to give me the call.

    Dealer Markup List California

    San Diego is MSRP with added $3k for ceramic, Xpel, and tint. Last I spoke to them they said they don’t do reservations. They’re on a first come, first serve basis.

    Thanks for the heads up. I just called them and they're requiring a credit check to get on their list.

    Appreciate the offer! I’ll give him a call and see if we can work something out.

    Below MSRP now?

    Hi Dr. Bob. Would you mind sharing the details of your transaction? I live in LA as well and if I can work out a deal like yours I would pull the trigger.

    Anyone interested in trading a GX550 Overtrail or Overtrail+ for a 2024 Ford Raptor 801A (37 Package)

    Giant pickups aren’t my cup of tea, but those Raptors are beasts. Good luck with the trade.

    GX 550 Low resale vale

    If you really want to sell it, why don’t you post it here in the marketplace for a reasonable price close to msrp? Maybe someone who doesn’t want to wait will want to deal. Worst case scenario is that you don’t sell it here.

    Below MSRP now?

    Unfortunately, that's not the case her in California. The majority of dealerships are charging over MSRP even if you are on their waitlists.

    Below MSRP now?

    I was able to find a SoCal dealer that is at MSRP, but they have $3K of add-ons for ceramic coating, tint, and Xpel. Next best was at a $5K markup, which I turned down and they said "throw out an offer". I turned that down again. I've been on the Longo list who's at MSRP without add-ons...

    GX550 Overtrail Vibration

    You get a virtual bro hug, Marty!

    GX550 Overtrail Vibration

    Yeah, that’s where the wishful thinking comes into play. Haha.

    GX550 Overtrail Vibration

    Agreed. However, any given two overtrails are supposed to ride exactly the same. If they don’t, then at the very least the dealership can’t deny it’s an issue and chalk it up to “it’s just a characteristic of this model”.

    GX550 Overtrail Vibration

    Didn't read through the entire thread so not sure if this has been suggested yet, but if we're lucky enough, would someone with a non-vibrating GX be willing to meet up with someone with a vibrating GX and drive them back to back? Then maybe take those two vehicles to the dealership to show...

    Required loan to purchase

    Can’t speak to the options as they’re a personal choice, but you will see the delivery, processing, and handling fee on every new vehicle. I don’t think there’s any way around it unless you negotiate a lower price.

    Pulled the trigger

    Congrats! Looks great.

    Dealer Markup List California

    For anyone interested, Longo has 3 GXs listed as in “In Stock”. Their other ~60 show as “Sale Pending” so I’m guessing the 3 are unspoken for. Longo is an MSRP dealer as well. https://www.longolexus.com/searchnew.aspx?q=GX&VehicleStageText=In%20Stock

    💸 The 'official' I put my deposit down list...

    Agreed. If anyone is itching to get into a GX, people are often dropping out of their allocations. My salesperson texted me a couple weeks ago about an incognito prem+ at MSRP. Passed since I’m waiting for an OT. With where I am on the waitlist, I would be getting mine early to mid-2025 if I...

    GX550 Aftermarket Wheel & Tire Thread

    Never heard of them, but they would look nice on a GX

    GX550 Aftermarket Wheel & Tire Thread

    Would that depend on the wheel design then? Not doubting your claim, but maybe some aftermarket wheels fitting the GX might have wider holes for the lugs nuts?

    GX550 Aftermarket Wheel & Tire Thread

    Not a stupid question. Everyone has to start somewhere and you would never have known this if you’ve never purchased a set of aftermarket wheels. They do not come with lug nuts. However, you can reuse the stock lug nuts most of the time.

    Dealer Markup List California

    Well, I forgot to add I had a ton of issues when selling the car because the DMV still had issues with the info in their system at the time. Thanks. It was in incredibly crappy experience at the time, but it makes for a good story now. Haha.

    Dealer Markup List California

    Just some anecdotal info for anyone considering purchasing from another state and hasn't been through the process. It was a nightmare. I live in LA and bought a Tacoma from Portland. I had to weigh and smog the car even though it was brand new. I couldn't register the car for months because...

    FYI. Longo just texted me that they have a premium + in incognito available. I passed because it’s not what I’m looking for.

    Required loan to purchase

    If they add a prepayment penalty on the loan then paying it off immediately might not make sense. But if they don’t, paying it off the next day is a good idea.

    💸 The 'official' I put my deposit down list...

    Put my deposit down for an OT on July 3rd. Works out because I want a MY 25 or 26 and the rep said the wait is 8-12 months.

    Dealer Markup List California

    Yup, Longo is a good, no hassles dealership. I've purchased a Tacoma from them and put my deposit down for the GX a few days ago. However, since they're one of the only SoCal dealerships that don't mark up their vehicles, their waitlist is currently 500+ and an estimated wait time of 8-12...
