X-Runner production suspended.......

[Murderface]

thats the color u should've got anyway:top:

 

[DanNolan]

BSP with sport hood, color matched bumpers, a deep grill mod, black rims, and dark tinting = pure sex on wheels

Lots of upkeep but truly worth the effort.

here we go again...

Yes I got BSP and of course the front and sides have been 3M 'd, next up is a TRD SS kit after Xmas, then a new sound system as i'm really not impressed with the stock system in the X-Runner. My Dodge Magnum stock radio sounds better.
(Magnum will be gone in Jan '09).

All I can think of is :rock:

 

[XrunnIT]

Hmmm... i kind of liked the idea that they had stopped production. I guess it gives us a chance for more aftermarket support?

 

[RedXRunner]

**** me! :motz:

 

[Toyotaguy_7]

[dj_lucas840]

Yes, If production stopped then the model would be placed in jeopardy for 2010 and future, then there is a countdown to the end of parts.

But the question remains if there will be a 2010 model of X-Runner.

and what does "BOS model change if desired" mean? :hmmmm2:

sadly this is true my wifey has an 01 celica gts. when she got in an accident last year...the dealer had a hard time trying to find replacement parts...good thing that insurance paid for it and it wasn't out of pocket...but lets hope this doesn't happen for us.:ahhhhh:

I just got my X from a guy that works the parts and used car area at the Toyota dealership in Tennessee. He looked up in the reference on the PC that there was atleast 10 more 09 Xrunners in dealership inventories right now. Thats 10 more than what is already posted in the 09 thread here. That to me is a good sign.
Even still. I had an 02 Srunner before this one. Of course in 05 when Toyota changed designs they came up with the X so who knows what will happen in 2010. Redesign like usual or disconotinue?

Long story short---say I get a Tacoma allocated to me, but not the color or options I want, I can go into our Toyota pipeline and "re-build/swap" it out with another dealership in our region before the truck is built. Its a 75% chance that it will take, most of the time it does. It all depends on whether or not other dealerships out there are looking for the color& options you (we) have, so we can get their color for our customer.

This is how I'm able to get members on here a certain color X-Runner when their local dealership can't or is to lazy to do a BOS change.

He looked up in the reference on the PC that there was atleast 10 more 09 Xrunners in dealership inventories right now. Thats 10 more than what is already posted in the 09 thread here.

If you look at page 9 of this thread; post # 82 --- you will see that at the time, they're are over 65 09 X-Runners still for sale.

Let me pull up the info real quick....

Ok, as of RIGHT NOW, their are 56 2009 X-Runners still available. We still have a 2009 BR; which Baker got to see today (he likes the color BTW:smile...and the farthest one out from our dealership is at GRANTS PASS TOYOTA in Oregon.

If your wondering why only about 10 were sold in the past 60 days...over 25% of these X-Runners are located in regions that have REAL winters (freezing rain, sleet, and snow)...being that it is still winter, the sales on these 4x2 trucks is down.

Our 09 BR has been on our lot for 168 days...and it will probably be here for another 60 days until the weather starts getting warmer and people forget that its a 4x2 truck.

There are two Radiant Reds (2008) at I-95 Toyota in Brunswick, GA. They are new, not used.

Saw them today.....Stickers say $26,500.
