My Fully Loaded Black Tacoma TRD Off Road Double Cab was a great, dependable truck. I have zero complaints on the look, the handling in the snow, the JBL sound system was awesome, it was comfortable in the front, but a little tight in the back. My biggest complaint about it over all is the V6 is very very underwhelming. The lack of power really kept me from keeping it because I loved the way it looked. It was the first year of the new design and I bought it brand new off the show room floor with all the bells and whistles. Tacoma's especially in CO, sell for a premium. I lost $8k in 4 years buying it brand new. I can't ask for anything else out of any vehicle when it comes to resale value and will continue to buy Toyota's for this very reason moving forward. I just couldn't stand how sluggish it was on the highway trying to get up to speed and forget about passing anybody without taxing the RPM's. It's a truck, I completely understand this but I may as well of been driving a 4 cylinder compact in comparison. Towing wasn't a problem, no real difference in performance, but I also never tried to tow a real heavy load with it. You buy this truck to Off-Road in the hills and to be honest, I was afraid too. I couldn't stand the thought of potentially damaging anything on the rocks in the Mountains so, I never really pushed its limits in that regard. What I did do, it handled with ease. Not sure I would buy another one, I think I would probably do a V8 Tundra next time.ā¦

This truck never fails to start. It just keeps going. 190k miles. We just keep changing the oil and driving it.ā¦

I needed something for the winter as I drive a Ford Mustang . I found out that the Tacomaās have such high resale value that a lease would be beneficial to me . SR access cab in white with the SX package for under 200 a month with 4k down. Overall I am enjoying the truck . No powe seat in this model but their is a mod to fix the seat slope & height. The engine and transmission pairing is a bit underwhelming . Overall I find the interior refined and ergonomically correct. The new infotainment system is well-placed and easy to use . There are many fun mods to class up the interior and exterior . I like the 6 foot bed with the access cab . Overall I am pleased. Itās a fun truck to drive.ā¦
