    Cancel the predator steps, they suck. Put the $650 towards some sliders.

    I have the pred steps on my taco. The paint is chipping after a year and if u bottom out on them, the steps fold like they’re made of tin.

    Dude, I didn’t mean to sound dickish there. I paid $650 for predator steps not knowing how flimsy they were. If I could do it again, I’d have left them at the dealership.

    Oh no worries whatsoever! I believe you. I would have had no idea. The one I test drove didn’t have anything. I saw the pred steps on one in a parking lot and they looked the part.

    Did you have to go above MSRP on that purchase? Thanks!

    I am thinking about going the ordering route too!

    Nice choice!
    If the wait for mine is anything to go by, you'll have it mid to late summer. I'm at 4 months now and still don't have it

    Nah sold at MSRP. You should definitely order one and we can race to see who gets it first! I’ll put Buffalo wings on the line...

    Thanks for that! That’s why I really didn’t waste any time. I really only started considering a 4Runner a month or so ago. If I get it by football season I’ll be fine. Keep us updated!

    Great to see that the Bills are relevant again! From a long suffering Redskin fan!

    Looking to order a Pro as well - in MGM. Or wait to see what is new and exciting for 2022. I'm not in a hurry.

    Welcome to the forum.

    I agree with @whitepony04 - cancel the Predator steps and use that $ for sliders...you can sell the Predator steps later if you can't cancel them off your order, but you won't get your $650 back.

    Sweet.. I guess when you order its only $52554 + tax + destination and that's it.
    It's stupid when you go buy a Pro from dealer they add $10,000 as "Market adjustment" on top of $50K + destination + tax +,+,...

    Congratz..:yay:

    It's definitely weird walking into a place and ordering a car at sticker price like it's a pizza but the build quality and resale value make up for it! I would never pay more than MSRP

    I am in the same boat! If I ultimately decide to go with a Pro over a ORP, I will not pay over MSRP. Most of the dealers here reportedly sell the Pros at MSRP, but I see them marked up on the internet pricing. The Pro's filter thru the local dealerships, but don't last long on the lots. I am located in the DC suburbs of MD which is an affluent area, but not a hardcore 4Wheeling area. Soccer moms and mall crawlers!
