Question form Robert: I am looking to buy either a 2008 or 2009 Toyota Tacoma 4 cylinder, 4X4 access cab. I heard these cars were going for far under invoice. The prices on autobrag do not reflect the prices I have been hearing about. I have heard 30-40% below invoice. Is that reasonable?

Queen of the Road: Hi Robert. Welcome to AutoBragBlog! There are deals out there that can dip as low as 24% off MSRP, but go ahead and ask for that much off MSRP since the auto market needs customers badly. If you get that much off, let us know!
