45 on a 50k truck sounds like a good offer. All the extras are worth nothing.

Value of ceramic coating = $0 Value of paint protection = $0 Value of Inside "stupid stuff" = $0

All of these trucks are overpriced guys. Stop inflating the prices with your purchases. This goes for all products.

You pay markups and now you mad cuz they offer you $6K less than sticker? You trippin.

Their offer was fair. They’re in business to make money not sell other people’s cars. Same if you were to go to a pawn shop, don’t expect retail.

Lmao "they Trippin" Few seconds later "They good ppl come see them"

You’ve got a clean truck, I would entertain their offers for fun and giggles, but I would stay committed to that, enjoy that! It’s sharp!

Feels like a kid in a candy store!!! Car payments monthly 6 to over $1000 is insane.😊

I just sold my car to Carmax. They paid me $2000 dollars more than other big car dealers offered me. While I was there I found a car I wanted to buy. Since I was selling and buying from them, they gave me $1330 dollars tax break, I ended up paying only few hundred dollars tax.😅

Lil Kenny Congratulations for the video....more than 30k views....keep moving forward on your channel of You Tube 🎉🎉🎉

CarMax will resell your Trd for $55k!!

I traded in my 23 Taco TRD Pro same color as your with 5k miles on it, and got $50,500 as a trade in, shopped around many dealers and 2 did offer 45k, and others offered between 47k -49k. Just shop around brother and be patient. My 2 hightest trade in offers were from the dealer owners that wanted the truck, and were willing to give more than what the sales managers would offer. Go on a busy saturday afternoon, and park your truck right upfront so it can get all the attention from the customers, and the dealer owners then see that. The dealer listed my Taco for 53,500, and sold it in 2 days

I hear you Brother, I got an appraisal for my 2016 Subaru STI with over 35k on modifications, and the appraisal was for 22k. Every one needs to understand that installing aftermarket parts on a car is a labor of love. You will never get that money back.

That’s what I was offered on my 23 trd pro with about 8k miles after I added $3k in extra accessories. They would sell it for close to $55k. Our TRD Pros are going up in price if anything. My neighbor wants it and he would pay me $50k today immediately if not more. I’m not selling it. It’s a keeper. I will get a new 4Runner trd pro eventually but I’m keeping the tacoma.

kenny !!! channel booming way to go !

U sale it to em an that shit gonna sit on the lot like the rest of em

My Tacoma is a 2008 TRD Sport 4x2 recently with 60000 miles....is a Silver color and runs like a brand new Tacoma has 16 years with me.....If I am you don't throw it out, stay with that Truck

I’m really really really happy that I accepted their offer last March for $100 less than I bought it for 25 months ago (Dec 2021). It was a TRD sport manual black. They initially listed it at $44,998 and now they lowered it to $43,998. Based on this adjustment, I would say the purchase offer trend is going down.

How much is Carvana offering? You should do a comparison video.

You did get robbed from them xtra $5k in bs markups when you bought your TRD!!

Great commentary!! Subscribed 😂

What made you go with the white lettering out? Also private party on a 22 Limited same set up is $46K. The new one isn’t any better it has a smaller power plant. You may like the 24 body it has to grow on me first. 55K for a used TRD Pro? No one should have to pay for the extras you did when purchasing it new.

What did you expect? What makes you think these are going to go up in value? Especially when there are 2023 0 mile trd pros laying around for 52k before any negotiating. Carmax is also known to pay less for modified vehicles

It’s worth keeping! She’s a beaut! 🤙🏻🇨🇦

Hold on to your truck and keep it clean. It is already a collector's item. It will outlast the '24 Pro by hundreds of thousands of miles. Just look at what's gong on with the Tundra right now and all the other competition with their turbo 4 bangers. I grabbed my 2023 Off Road last year once I found one at MSRP because I saw this coming. No regrets. You've got a keeper my friend.

LOL Kenny, You know they're in business to make money right!

Enjoyed your content. I just subbed.

Kenny you deserved the success i been on the channel since under 1k subs

45k solid they will drop prices like a rock end of year

How much did you pay for your truck? What was the MSRP?

just keep your truck Kenny, hold off on getting the 4th gen until 2026/2027 for Toyota to work out the kinks

My question is how much you trying to get out of your 50k truck?

Sorry about that, i think the used car are dropping price very quick. They did offer me a less than your. Which I got 2023 pro with all the add-ons on 13K miles. My sticker price was will over 56K. :(. I would have sold it and upgraded to 2024, but I think I am stock with this till my lease is over.

Post Covid, I just don't see Carmax surviving much longer. I could be wrong, but no way would I be interested in those prices.

I like your truck! Keep it

I think the offer is good. Try trading it with a dealership they will price match but, they’ll get you on the new car. Also, not everyone wants a red car. Your car maybe clean but it’s used and it’s a previous gen car. Good luck.

None of those used Toyotas are worth more than 35K, most are worth 30K or less. No thanks. I'll keep and drive my 2017 SR5 thanks.

I sold my 2015 4runner Trd Pro Inferno 19k miles privately for 41K last year - paid 43K new - I am in a new Solar Octane Tacoma Trd Pro like Kenny's now

A cash offer of 45k from a reseller isn't unreasonable. Obviously you can get more from a private sale. Not sure what you were expecting. Love your vids man! I wouldn't sell a 2023 TRD pro to Carmax right now but that's up to you. You have to figure that any reseller is expecting a 20% return on their investment as a minimum. Selling that truck to buy a 2024 for KZfaq content profits is a loosing proprisition IMHO.

Take the 45k if you really want to sell it! Carmax has to make a profit too! You will have a hard time trying to sell it privately in this economy! I would just keep your Pro and drive it til the wheels fall off!

Your 23' is awesome. I would keep it for at least another year. Gives you time to see how the new tacoma market shakes out, especially with their wack ass prices at the moment.

You also have the TRD Upper Control Arms those are $1500, I just bought them. I would ask $51,000 but I would keep it. It's a beauty!! The V6 is better than the costly hybrid. Repairs on the hybrid would be costly. You could modify drum brakes to disc and your ride would be complete!

I would a never sold the Army Green. Love that color.

Dammit Kenny, thanks to your videos, I can no longer say celestial correctly! :)

Note: CarMax also has less competition, some w/ their business model (kinda) went belly up, like Carvana. I sold them my Frontier during Covid.

I am a follower from Florida.....keep doing what you are doing...great content

Keep it forever! Love the red!

Hell no! Keep it!! You have the nicest one, plus in a wonderful color!!! They would sell yours for at least 52K!!!

45k not bad depending if you want to get out the loan or not. im keeping my paid off 21 tacoma

Hang on to your Truck!

Love your truck. No way I'd get the new one with the turbo engine. Reliability will not be the same, but that only matters if you plan on driving it past 60-80k miles.

kenny your commentary is funny lmaoo

Man I paid 51k otd for my 21 Lunar Rock Pro Tundra brand new with a 100k mile bumper to bumper warranty back at the end of 2020.

Very fair offer on their part.

Ur truck is beautiful and I agree it's a 10!! But u have to understand the stealership has a lot of overhead expenses. U could easily sell your Taco privately and get closer to 49k. But you'll be dealing with people.... I recently traded my TRD pro tundra and regret it.... think about keeping what u have, u have a lot invested in it and you haven't even broken it in. Enjoy what u have.

You’ve got a nice red truck. Did you know that any color you observe in an object, actually is all the colors in the light spectrum except that particular color entering the retina? So, your truck embodies all the colors in the rainbow and rejects or reflects back red. That’s why you see only red. Anyway, thanks for the post.

45k is the prices now for yours, from now on your truck will decrease the price quickly.

I bought a truck just like yours just by watching your channel. Best decision ever. I love it.

Addressing your question at the 14:30 min mark. Yes, not accounting for price, the '24 TRD Pro is better than yours... More hp & torque, substantial low end torque compared to the '23, higher mpg, independent suspension, better ride/handling, non-hunting transmission, box frame construction (not C frame). Need I go on?

My wife just traded in her ‘21 taco for a new Lexus Rex 350 hybrid luxury and we’re pretty happy with it so far. It’s sad that a new pro is almost the same cost as our new Lexus. I bet the new taco vehicles will mostly sit on the lot with their new prices.

They having trouble selling their own trucks.😂 your truck is nice keep it.

The red color would add 5k in value, red and black is fire thank for replying

Thats crazy money

Seemed like a very solid offer to me. A vehicle is a depreciating asset. The market has come back down especially most recently.

Damn they did you dirty on the markups

They are giving you more than most people would give you for it.

Try driveway they offered the most for any vehicle

Dude you went to one single Carmax in your area. There’s hundreds of stores in the country, they offer great prices, not every store is like Salem Oregon fortunately. 41 for your truck is good. After that offer expires you’ll get 35.

They have to make money too.. Noone really trades in brand new trucks that often and this is why u gotta get your value by paying it off and keeping it well maintained u can't just get a deal on something then go profit from another dealer the next week lol

What it comes down to is do what you want. Only you know if you can financially make a move to a 2024 Taco.. if you can get the Dealer to come down on the price of a new Tacoma, than you will somewhat balance out. You have a nice Tacoma now, what can you get for yours if you sold it yourself ? Try to sell it yourself.

Great offer !

Keep your truck bro!

I will buy it from you. How much do you want?

I recently sold Carmax my 2015 GMC Sierra that I had bought brand new , kept it mint with low miles , they gave me $26k for it , I was sad to see it go but i think it was the right time , The New Denalis are $10k off right now , ill wait patiently for the end of the year of the next model ..

If they offered $45k for your used (10k miles) Trd Pro, that’s a damn good offer. I would take that offer, pay off the remaining balance, and purchase an older 4x4 Tacoma cash if you got it like that. Fck a car payment.

I paid 31k for my new bare model 2022 Tacoma… just sold it yesterday to carmax for 37k and 20k miles on it… crazy

I've sold my 2023 Maverick a month ago and they bought it for $26k. I really can't complain I use the Maverick for over a year and put on about 13k miles. They are selling it on their lot for $29,999. They plan to make 4k for the sale ofcourse they gotta make their money. I think most of those trucks they probably bought it high that's why the price is like that.

They offered me 39k for my ‘23 4x4 sport with 9k mi last week. Seems like the offers are all over the place

Keep your Pro Kenny , it’s worth 10k more than what car max is offering imo…. They will sell your truck for way more than 50k for a big profit!!

Nice offer but you gotta keep that 🌮! It’s gorgeous

Take the money while you can the market is dropping. It could get bad. I would take that money and run before they change their mind. See all the unsold cars? They dont need your truck they'll be stuck with it for a while. And once the new model proves itself over the next couple years the 3rd Gen will be worth less. So they'll be dropping prices on these and your truck to get out of them. You have a pro. It's still the same frame, drivetrain. "Pro" didn't mean much when you bought. Personally i think you shoul take the money and go buy a new frontier. They are discounting a bit and the frontier is a way better buy and made well. Better value. Then look at tacos again in a few years . Or just take the money and buy a beater. Savec what you have left for a rainy day

So many beautiful Tacomas. Who is trading those in? Boy are they going to regret it! You will never see another truck that good, that reliable that dependable! I so wish I could buy one, but at those prices it will only be a far fetched dream 😢😢😢 I would be the happiest man on earth driving one. BTW I was on a road trip out west and met a group of Tacoma owners driving to Ecuador. Yes driving to Ecuador. I could not believe it but they said they do it every year 😂. If you sell your drop dead glorious Taco I will unsubscribe to your channel. 😂😂😂

I think I would prefer a 6 cyl Toyota over the standard 4 cyl. The hybrid 4cyl is slightly tempting. They should have put the hybrid on the 6 with an 8 speed transmission.

Of your saying those have a musty odor they could be flood out vehicles.

Why do people care about power seats and lift gates? They do not really make your life better and in fact just slow you down and are one more thing that can break. Thanks for reminding me about smell. Always check for that.

Carmax will probably offer more than a Toyota dealer for trade in value. What is the value of the truck? Blue Book value. any extras you purchased, as well as the initial dealer markup, will not affect the value.. that's money out of your pocket. Any dealer is going to offer you less, turn around and sell for a profit.. they have to make money on it. Best way to sell is privately. Advertise it on Auto Trader with your asking price, see if you can get what you want.

If people would stop buying for a year those prices would plummet

I’m surprised they offered that much. Vehicles typically don’t appreciate. The pandemic madness may be normalizing.

Probably get more for the truck privately sold because of the V6 when those certain older models become more scarce.

Kenny, why you parked in the handicapped spot?

I bought a GMC Canyon brand new in 2018, I paid it off in 2019. It only has 5000 miles on it. I don't plan buying another vehicle.

Hi Kenny, unfortunately you’re not gonna sell your truck for what you paid for it that just how it is, I bought a 2020 tundra for 40k dealership offer me 30k for it best to sell it out privately or keep it ✌️

Patience is a virtue, your truck will command a higher yield, wait until the dust settles. 24 buyers are already having remorse.

Funny how you think there should be a huge price difference between 10K miles, 15K miles, 17K miles, etc. Those are all in the same ballpark.

I think $45 is reasonable against their other models. I think $45 is actually high for the market overall. But yeah, they pay you 45, put 2 grand in cleaning and for marketing budget and sell it for 50 in an hour with their network. Every offer I've ever gotten from Carmax is high....which has been awesome and has saved me from having to deal with selling on my own. Which is a time consuming hassle. Their network is pretty amazing. Never bought a car from them, but sold 4 to them.

I traded in my 22 trd off road last week for 42500, 25000 miles. It’s on their lot asking 47725.

Make sure you include storage and holding fees for them to 😆

I got $49,000 trade towards full size chevy. Thing is you are seeing the price what they are asking for all the other trucks there. But they are sitting there not moving. They would put yours out for 51,000 and haggle down.

I insist on a free car wash after we go on a double secret off-roading test drive.
