    Is it just me or is it every time you have the money and know just what you want you cannot find one. I have been looking for a 2016 DC 4x4 (any Tundra gray) with front bucket seats and a 5.7L for a reasonable price. They appear to be as rare as hen's teeth. I have searched as far as 500 miles. The few that I have found are priced like new or are snapped up soon after advertised. I live in SE Ohio so not a lot of Tundras match my wants. I have tried all the major car search sites and dealers with little luck. The only thing in my favor is that I am not desperate to buy now. Does anyone have any suggestions on where else I can look.

    Thanks

    Whats different about the 2016? Was the bench not offered in 15 or 17? I saw an 18 lifted sr5 dc in mgm at my dealer with the bench seat.

    I was able to come out cheaper buying new than something a year or two old due to 0.9 interest rate on new.

    Can you afford a new truck?
    Might be worth it to try and buy new.

    2016 is the first year that has everything that I was wanting and was in my price range. I am wanting to be about $28000 and will be paying cash. I have seen 2017 and even a few 2018 DCs for under $30000 but they are usually 4.6L with few options.
