lol, I just saw this and I guess the Taco is the poster child for tariffs.

But I think the real decision will come down to how Toyota handles this. They set the price that the dealers pay, so they could bump it up by all or part of the tariff. Then I assume the dealers would just pass that along to buyers. If the wholesale price increases by the full 25%, dealers might end up making even more profit and Tacoma sales will fall off of a cliff IMO.

I read somewhere that toyota may also spread the cost of the tariffs across the range of vehicles they sell, softening the blow to the Tacoma. Looks like a viable option.

If CNN said it, it must be true.

Mexico called… 30 day pause.

Saw that. I hope my truck gets across the border in the next 30 days.

It’s over. Mexico realized it wasn’t a bluff!

I thought all Tacos were tire strapped to the transport. I guess not according to to this pic. That was the reason for the over inflated tires.

And just like that both Canada and Mexico will finally protect the borders and shoulder some of the cost. Well done.

Isn’t there a trade agreement that someone touted as the best trade deal that kept our biggest trade partners tariff free? Wasn’t it big corporations who relocated all these factories away to avoid regulation? Are we taxing ourselves to get some border compliance?? Are your eggs cheap yet? Remains to be seen.

What do all your questions have to do with tacomas? Or any automotive related issue? Keep it focused please.

Sorry, but I’m glad I bought when I did. I’m in the bicycle business and we were hit hard by the last time tariffs were applied. I’m all for make it in America, but that sort of decision is way above my pay scale. My taco was made in Mexico. My next big road trip in to western Canada and my concern is to not piss off the neighbors. /2¢

@Longpatterned Yeah, I got hurt by some of the tariffs last time around too, which makes me really glad that I already have my 4th gen.
