    Thank you. I have a custom Vette and a 40' Sea Ray - so I get where you're coming from.

    Hardest part so far has been to find what I'm looking for. Got on a plane and went to Oregon because there was one with the right color combination, low miles, and looked perfect. Learned the hard way already to find out if the unit came from Canada - thing was mint until I looked underneath.....rust city.

    Appreciate all the good vibes guys. :)

    Since this thread is getting a lot more views than my WTB thread, I'll pose this to you knowledgeable Tundra folks. I think I may have found the truck to purchase - is this a fair deal:

    2013 CM Platinum - has one of the two color combos I like - white ext with graphite interior.
    CPO Truck at a Toyota dealer, 35000 miles, bone stock. $34k plus shipping. Fair?

    Also - is the Toyota backed 7/100 bumper to bumper warranty worth doing at $1845?

    Plan is to keep this for the foreseeable future.

    Appreciate your input :thumbsup:

    Sounds like a good deal. Based on the residual value of these trucks, price looks competitive. Low miles after 4 years too. Did previous owner tow heavy loads? Mostly city or highway driving or both? For piece of mind, personally I would get the extended warranty. You probably won't use it, but it's there just in case.

    Ya, it's a 4 x 4 - wouldn't consider anything else. One owner that's spent its 37k miles between AZ and CA, learned quickly to stay with western - no rust areas. I will be going with the extended warranty, no worries for 63k is a good thing, plus it'll take me years to put on that kind of miles.
