Who has a new 2022? Post your new truck pics here!!

I have the same truck coming except non hybrid. Can I ask what you paid?

 

Thats awesome. You will love it. My sales price was 69,700

 

If it is, it'd be an issue for the whole NW region, I'd guess, rather than just WA state. And it seems that there are ebbs and flows in which region is getting inventory sent to it.

 

I am sure you are right. I can’t remember did you recently take delivery? Did you have a very long wait?

 

Weuuuuu! Finally! Goes in for chrome delete next week and Westcott 3/1 in 2 weeks!

 

Thank you for this!

Thank you for this! My truck was built 23/24th of last month and was told it hit the train on the 26th. I’m the other direction, in WA state, but hopefully it’s a similar train ride as far as time. The suspense is killing me. My deposit was in on the 20th of March. Feels like an eternity ago now.

 

My build date was 5/24 and confirmed yesterday it hit the train 2 days later, the 26th. 3-4 weeks out is what I was told. I’m in WA state.

 

Yeah, I had first deposit down in Nov, for a Limited, and changed my specs a few times. I opened up for a Limited or 1794 in Apr and took delivery in May. I needed Crewmax, TRD Offroad, 6.5' bed, and panoramic roof.

 

Ya I was pretty hard on a Platinum. But gave them supersonic red or metallic grey for colors. Must haves were 4x4, crew max with a 6.5ft bed. My salesperson tried to tell me how waiting for the truck was gonna be like meat in a crockpot… “your wants are the meat on the bone. Eventually the meat will just fall off, like your must haves.” To which I replied, “I live where we need 4x4. I don’t have kids and only drive with adults, so crew max is a need. I am getting a pano roof so no roof rack and I have kayaks… need a 6.5 foot bed. And the color is only gonna be one of those two, cause I’m not spending 70k plus on a truck I don’t like looking at.” Here reply was simply, “well ok, we will wait then.” And wait we did. Not horrible, but still feels like forever when I already sold my truck and have to borrow wife’s car when I want to do shit. We have a third car but we try to limit the driving. 45k mile 05 vette. Nothing crazy, but we still like not using it as a daily.

 

Yeah I told several sales folks that if I'm spending 65k+, I'm not compromising on what I need in a vehicle. I had a few other purchase options but was doing OK limping around my FJ Cruiser with a blown head gasket while I waited. Another month or two and I'd probably have found a Ram instead though

 

Just picked up earlier today. Platinum CrewMax 5.5' - Magnetic Grey Metallic

 

Took delivery this morning. SR5 with premium audio, SR5 premium, SR5 convenience, and air suspension.

 

Not mine. at the dealer in Fremont CA. I was told by the salesperson it was brought in for a Toyota exec, not for sale.

 

Just picked up my 22 Army Green SR5 TRD Sport today... didn't take many pics yet but looking forward to making it mine.

 

The plastic pieces (i.e. mustache and wheel arch) don’t match very well

 

Painted plastic will rarely EVER match painted metal

 

too bad the pieces below the light are plastic and are the same color as the painted metal. only odd color is the mustache.

 

Take a closer look at the fender flares, they are like the mustache... perhaps they were all painted after factory.

 

I know it's not yours and it's not directed to you. But I don't get the captivation with the Capstone. I can't believe folks are gunning for this. The TRD Pro is a good buy at MSRP, it's a competitively equipped truck to the AT4 and it's cheaper.

But the Capstone is just not. I see nothing special about that pushes it to the 80's. Exterior is okay and has good paint matched parts but the interior is awful and I don't see the value over a hybrid plat or 1794

 

the only thing i can think of is that the mustache and fender flares are painted after the fact on a different line since they are minor parts compared to the major body parts.

 

Well…per Toyota it’s for the swanky folks making that cappuccino run

My home made black coffee (with a little Hazlenut creamer) doesn’t qualify so SR5 it is.

 

I posted the following back in September on the "what do you want the next gen Tundra to be?" thread: https://www.tundras.com/threads/what-do-you-want-in-2022-tundra.83760/page-10#post-2397411

You can definitely tell the Capstone was someone's pet project and was never intended to make it to production. The capstone should have been for the guy that wanted the luxury of a Ford F150 limited, but looked at the blue interior and thought it was obnoxious; thought $85k for a Denali Ultimate is ostentatious; and thought the Ram Limited luxury features were nice, but wanted reliability. It should have borrowed characteristics of those three trucks. Instead, it's just a slightly nicer platinum.

I feel like the Capstone was aimed at people like me, but they missed the mark on a few items by trying to make it too many things to too many people. I think this is where you see them trying too hard to copy other brands. They put 22" wheels on it, two tone interior, and chrome letters on the tailgate. I feel like they forgot their target demo for this was probably the same crowd that used to spend $85k for a Land Cruiser (and those that used to lust for them), not the crowd wishing Cadillac made a pickup. I would have preferred they started with a clean sheet of paper and thought a little bit harder about who this was aimed at. I don't see them stealing sales from the other brands' high end luxury trucks.

The capstone should have been more understated. They got it right with the grill, and to be fair, it has less chrome than the 1794. Americans used to buy the Land Cruiser because they wanted something nice but not extravagant. The chrome letters on the tailgate are a sign they didn't understand that.

The capstone should have picked up where the 1794 and platinum left off. It didn't. It should have gotten the acoustic glass and nicer leather, but the leather should have been one color. The truck also should have gotten a nicer stereo (I know the one in the LX isn't very good), better interior lighting (blue only on the ambient?!? why?), auto or full time 4wd, generator capability?, unique wheels but probably 20", four corner air ride?, and whatever else they needed to do to differentiate it from the platinum. Last, it should have been priced to undercut the other brands $5-$10k.

 

I remember when we were taking guesses at what it should have.

I think on top of what you mentioned it should have massage seats, adjustable pedals, standard AVS, exterior puddle lights, unique startup sequence on the digital cluster, etc.

 

I was just scrolling through all the 2022 pics and wow these trucks do look sharp!

I pulled the trigger on a 2022 Limited CM TRD OF in Lunar Rock. I was in a pickle with high miles on my 2017 and after speaking with my dealer he said the 2023 Toyota prices will most likely increase now that the manufacturer see's the demand and mark ups from the dealerships. I was fortunate enough that my Toyota mechanic friend wanted my 2017. The 2017 has 83,000 miles on it and once I hit 100,000 I would lose a few more bucks.

So I put a grand down and secured what I wanted. The hybrid was a tad out of my reach and availability wasn't on my side. I can wait another 6 years for a hybrid

 

Still pissed you took my truck...

I actually got a call from another Cleveland dealership at 9pm last night telling me they had what i wanted coming into allocation, but they wouldnt budge on the $5k markup since I'm 2 hours away...

 

Ya I got them to reduce the mark up from $7,000 to $4,500 and finally $3,500 which is less than the other dealers who are at $5,000
I spoke with Adam at Buyers Toyota but the doesn't know when the next batch is coming. If I could wait I would but my mechanic friend offered me $28 for my 2017 as long as I stayed under 90,000 miles.

 

What dealer was it?

 

Brunswick... we had a good 30 min talk about it, and he kept asking if it was just the principle of the price or i was worried about my payment. I said that clearly its the principle of it... Said he would talk to his manager to see if there was any qiggle room, but haven't heard from him since...

 

Oh ok, The salesman I have worked with over the years is Dave Muschweck. I bought 2 Tundra's and a Sienna from him.

 

At Brunswick? I think the guy I was chatting with was named Marcus...
