Help - advice on new tundra I’m about to buy

So I finally found a trd pro 2021, about to put a deposit down but wanted some advice from this awesome community on two topics:

1-it will come with the “ pocket fenders with rivet” option. Not a fan of these so plan to take them off. Has anyone had to do this? I assume they are bolted on via the wheel well?

2-i live in NC and will be buying from Florida. Anyone have advice/tips to look out for when doing out of state purchase?

 

Its not an option from toyota, but sometimes dealerships will add stuff like that to a showroom truck.

They will most likely be Bushwackers if they come with it, pretty easy to remove. There are a few youtube vids on installation to give you an idea.

 

1 - Fender Flares regardless of which style are a Port or Dealership Add-on and easily removed
2 - Why from Florida if you are in NC?

 

In NC I couldn’t find any dealers with 2021 trd pros that weren’t accounted for already and no one could order one.

 

2 in my area. Eastern Mass. 1 Lunar Rock but it has a HUGE MARK UP - Like 10K
And a White priced at Sticker

 

Ya the window is closing on the last of the V8s and ALL/ANY Tundra is hard to find. Took me forever it seems to find a Cement Limited Double Cab. Should land in 2-3 wks. Everything seems to be sold before it even reaches the dealerships

 

I bought my Tacoma and Tundra from out of state, the dealer *should* handle everything on that front. They tried to tack on Kentucky sales tax to my Tundra (i dont think it was an accident, the dealers were sheisty af) so I had to call and talk to three people to get it removed.
I paid my states sales tax when I registered it. The dealer mailed me the KY title which I handed to my bank, paid them the xfer fee bs, and they then filed for a Maine title (which they then promptly lost when I paid it off 6 months later and called asking where tf my title was)

 

I found mine on CarVana ,
worked out well for me.

 

What did you end up getting? I sold two Tundras to Carvana this year for some big $$$.

 

2021, Calvary Blue, 5000 miles

 

I just got mine a couple weeks back in Alabama, talked about it on my build thread. Buying right now is both good and bad.

I bought a truck in Fla years back, I believe they can legally charge more for doc fees, but that's all I remember. Just under $1k if I remember correct.

 

Welcome from LA (Lower Alabama)!

No big deal buying out of state. You just pay sales tax when you get your tag. Congrats!
