    I'm willing to pay $75k, but probably someone will out bid that

    I'd guess well into the 100k's, could see as high as 150k. Proceeds going to Paralympians will drive the price up. Vin #1, along with it being a Capstone or TRD Pro doesn't mean much, but have it going to charity and you get a truck will fetch a good sum

    lol you do realize toyota never sells any new vehicle at vin # 00001. first set of numbers are actually test mules then once actual production begins it just picks up from when the test mules stopped.

    and the same goes for when the hybrids, they just follow normal vin numbering since its the same truck.

    Time to turn it around and sell it for a nice profit of about -$630,000

    Saw it as well. Way over-priced and under-spec’d. Glad the money went to a great cause, but wow. Don’t understand that one at all.

    Why did you get you get worked up over this? Weird. That's how they are auctioning it.

    well if this was a low volume vehicle like the corvetter z06 i could understand. but it a mass produced no one cares if its #1 or #1001 truck. if you are going to pay for that #1, good luck getting that money back cause no one in their right mind is going to give you back what you paid since its just a regular truck.

    i have yet to see any mass produced regular truck (in the last 20 yrs) show up on mecum, etc selling for more than its worth being vin # 1.

    I would imagine if someone is spending 700k on this truck, they don't really care what it is. I think its more of a "I'm going to donate $700k to this organization and oh hey cool I also get a truck" situation. Highly unlikely they are trying to win this truck so they can sell it for a profit in 20 years. If you've got 700k sitting around to bid on a 70k truck, you don't care about that.
