X-runner are no more!

[MistaGXR06]

Confirmed today from a sales rep that the X-runners are no longer being made or shipped. The sales rep was a HOTTIE too! :adore:

 

[X-Rizzo]

How would she know?

 

[07XR808]

I don't think you can trust anyone unless its official from Toyota in writing. Hasn't most dealers promised a TRD Supercharger for the last three years?:laugh: They don't know shiz!

 

[MORT-RUNNER]

I don't think that is true...a friend just went to Toyota the other day and ordered one. They had several on the lot but not in the color he wanted. They had him put a $100 dollars down for paper work and said it will be put into production and should be on island in 3-4 months.

Intresting, the Xrunner is no longer a trim option on the Toyota website.

I find it hard to believe they would put however much amount of money into the development of the truck and the SEMA model only to run it for 3 years. Doesn't make good business sense to me. Then again, if it is true - thanks for making the value of my truck go up. :biggrin:

What site are you looking at??? It's right here on the right side of the page:
http://www.toyota.com/tacoma/index.html?s_van=GM_TN_TACOMA_INDEX

Unless that information came written from Toyota Corporate then to me it's not true. Dealers know just as much as we and a lot of the time less. They have no inside information on anything corporate Toyota is doing. They find out the same time we do.

Maybe they have stopped producing them and are just selling off what is already made. Thats why it would be still on their web-site. Sad though if its true.

 

[MistaGXR06]

She said she was 2 days out of training and had been told that they were no longer being made. I'm just posting what I was told, plus like K2 said makes it more unique. Look at this guys website under information, he says that they are only making 3500 units. http://www.bastosdesign.com/xr/

 

[X-Rizzo]

That's 05xrunner's page he made a while back. NOBODY knows how many there are for sure.

 

[07xrunner]

well it really doesnt bother me if its true i already have one and never plan on getting rid of it so....and the xr is almost perfect the way it is now the only thing i could use some improvement on is rear disk and more power. both i can do myself

They only make 3500 per year. I think that your sales hottie may not know a lot about X-Runners... but that may not really matter (if you know what I'm sayin'). :biggrin:

 

[MistaGXR06]

Here found another website that says the same thing....

oops nevermind K2's rite about the annual production

I agree:top:

I just talked to the owner and GM of the dealership I have bought from for 25 years and I am afraid it is true. XR no mo. They were told the day that the new Tundra was released. Good thing is...the next generation and yes there will be a next gen, IS going to have a V-8 but as of now they are not sure if it will be the new Tacoma style or move up to the new Tundra. They said Toyota will announce within the next 30-45 days which way they are going and so forth. They want to be up, tooled and producing for 08 model year release.
Now I only hope Toychota does as planned, cuz as we all know they are famous for several mind changes along the way.:bird:

 

[K2]

Just seems like a waste of money to me. For the price tag on the XR (which was VERY low) - to only produce 10,500 seems like the development and production of parts, molds, etc would be a waste. Hmmm.

 

[project-c2]

I was wondering if anybody installed the 5.7l i FORCE into an X. That would be pretty sweet.

 

[vinnieb0i]

Reminds of my corolla days. They came out with corolla XRS with 05-06 and thats it. I also never seen one on the lot when i was looking for one.

 

[DOGSTOY06]

well if its true maybe they will go to 5.7 version.that would be over the top.:top:
