I'm likely just gonna hold onto it for now. I sent out a message/feeler about doing the engine swap.
I would [LIKE] a new Tacoma, same as I would [LIKE] a new 4Runner. That said I don't necessarily [NEED] yet. It takes the right buyer and honestly if I was to say sell it for $8500 that still leaves ~$22k over 60mo's and all 3 dealership's I talked to won't go lower than ~7% APR. That's ridiculous b/c the same 3 said to wait until Nov. and they'd help since I am a recent College Grad and more recently a Home Owner. Like I hinted at elsewhere, I think TMSA hates my guts now.
I like the idea of new b/c of warranty, that's about it. I'd still build upon whatever I got and for that sake I'll engine swap first. I got ~$4000 in replacement OEM parts on it already this year, I'm dug in too deep to give it up.
Maybe someone will step up to offer me something of a sweetheart deal. Time to use some connections??
