Hey Bikewv, I am in a similar situation. I am in the Mid-Atlantic region, zip code 22204. When I build the Tundra CrewMax online; it is Option E. I ordered my 07 TRD CrewMax SR5 from the factory on 3/26 with moonroof, TRD Off-Road, sonar, 4x4, 5.7L, and the upgraded JBL. The dealer called me and told me it would be in the week of May 14th without the JBL. If I wanted it, I would have to wait to place my order until the third week of May because it is viewed as custom. Below is also a response from Toyota when I raised the question to them:

Thank you for contacting Toyota Motor Sales, U.S.A., Inc.
We appreciate your interest in the Tundra, and apologize for the difficulty experienced in trying to find your vehicle of choice.

Option DZ-(AM/FM audio with 6 CD changer) a part of package E, is conflicting with the upgraded JBL you are requesting. The JBL unit is a factory installed option only. We apologize, packages can not be modified.

If the dealership is unable to locate the vehicle of choice, they may submit a preference request for your desired vehicle. This preference request does not guarantee you will receive the vehicle with the exact options requested, and may create an extended wait-time. A preference request can be taken at any time.

If we can be of further assistance, please feel free to contact us. Your email has been documented at our National Headquarters under file #200704160180.

Toyota Customer Experience

Consequently, I will stick with the standard audio. I do not want to wait till August for my truck. I figure I will eventuallu upgrade to an aftermarket head unit, once they catch on with a nice dash kit. Let me know if you want/need any other information. I have reserached this to a point of obsession.
