I'm so paranoid.

Last Wed. I decided to order exactly what I wanted, an Access Cab, TRD Sport, in Indigo Ink. I figured it would be middle of Feb before I would get it, but they told me Saturday when I called for an update that it would be here before the end of the month (which is now only 1 more day, still haven't heard anything though.. keeping the fingers crossed).


But for some reason, I have a bad feeling that it's going to get damaged in transit, or I'm going to show up to pick it up and it's going to be red instead of blue. Anyone else that ordered one have these kind of feelings? I guess my long history of awesome luck (note: sarcasm) is to blame for this.

I've already ordered a the WeatherTech's and I'm about to order the Lorado at Truck Alterations since they have the great price.

Sorry for a somewhat pointless post, just bored at work and had to vent.

The great thing is that if it comes in and it's not exactly what you ordered or wanted you don't have to take it. You can have them get what you wanted. I think everything will be fine. seems like people do this sort of thing all the time.
I'm sure you have nothing to worry about. And if there is something wrong with it (i.e color, or damaged) you can always find another one.
On a side note, I was not aware they made the access cab in a sport package. I've only seen the off-road.
There are plenty of Access cab sports, I drive an access cab sport (love it). The X-Runners aren't technically sports, but they are access cabs. Check out the show your truck thread. You will see quite a few.
You might just be feeling a little bit of buyer's remorse. Don't worry, you will soon have a great truck and be part of a very elite group.

There's definitely no buyer's remorse. This is the exact truck I've wanted for a long time. I've just taken the approach in life that if something can go wrong, it will go wrong. Not a good way to look at things. I don't recommend it. ;)

Your're feelings are going to go away when you start making your payments... Not to worry. :chug:
I do know one thing, YOU ARE GOING TO LOVE THE COLOR!!!!!! :clap:
i studied this in school. toyota uses something called lean sigma manufacturing. basically, they don't over saturate the market with tons of colors or options that people aren't buying. they take what options and colors are selling the best and that is their normal run. that way if a special order does come in, it doesn't take 6 months to deliver.

and yes, if it does come in damaged or the wrong color, you don't have to take delivery.

go take a valium or something, it'll be ok.
Eyedoc is right. Indigo Ink looks hot on these trucks.

And you are right too. It is a pointless post.

Nothing to worry about. even if it has a door ding, scratch, anything... you dont need to accept it.

They do, but you basically have to order it from the factory. I've been trying since late November to get one (in Speedway Blue which makes it even harder) and the current arrival date is late March.

I actually test drove the Speedway Blue TRD Sport, and they even offered it to me for $3,000 under sticker. I've seen several on the lots here. I had my heart set on the Indigo though, which I was willing to pay that extra $400 for (which was still just about $100 over invoice, which was what I was hoping to get one for).
Will get a grip and get some Xanax :lol:

I'm using a broker here in central California and she hasn't been able to get one at all in the whole of the western region. Like I said we've been trying for a LONG ass time now, but no dice. It's kind of sad when you have to order the color from the factory because they are only making 3 trucks that are eligible to be allocated in this fashion.
I had the same exact feelings as you. I ordered my truck October 30th of last year, and it arrived December 26th. The whole time I was nervous that it would be different than what I'd ordered, or that it would be damaged during transit. But the moment I saw my truck for the first time all shiny and newly washed and detailed in the dealer's prep garage, I was speechless. It's definitely worth the wait.

Well that sucks. Hope you don't have to wait much longer.

I've been told that it will take 3 weeks after the truck is built. It will be built on the 25th of February, so late March would be the soonest I could take delivery. :(
damn, local stealership quoted me 1K more then the dealership I brought it from at the time for my truck after my 2001 taco trade it. And they said if I ordered it (march 1 2007) that it wouldn't be here till most likely july/august. I was like wtf, they also said my trade would devalue by then, and that Toyota might no offer the 500$ cash back stuff at the time.. I told them to shove it..

Although I thought about trading in my truck and getting a different one. Maybe a black one, factory roof rack, ?JBL system?, VSC+ Atrac, trd Offroad, Hood scoop, cheap non TRD rims if I can, Leather seats, TRD supercharger, only if they gave me a good deal on it all..
