2023 Toyota Tacoma TRD Off-Road 4x4 Overview
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
Today we're taking a look at what is most likley the end of the 8 year run of this third generation Tacoma. This body style Tacoma was released in 2016 and has gone through minor changes over the year. This here is the TRD Off-Road 4x4 varient with the 5 foot bed and the automatic transmission. A very specific model but there are 34 different Tacoma configurations. Let me know your thoughts on this truck below in the comments and tell me if you'd get a third gen like this or wait for the next design.

Small Correction The TRD-Sport model doesn’t have the Bilstein shocks only the off-road has them. The TRD-Sport has Hitachi shocks

I just purchased this Tacoma with the Premium Tech Packag, Leather seats, and long bed. It is the perfect blend of old school expectations with modern day tech. I love the fact that it has enough technology, but doesn’t have a massive surface tablet looking thing on the dashboard. Overall, I love it.

Great overview Thank you it was very informative and helpful! I just bought a 2023 Tacoma TRD Premium and love it . I wanted to get the last of the v6 naturally aspirated Tacoma’s. Your break down of all the options and features was very helpful and much appreciated. Liked and Subscribed 👍🏻
I just bought this same color Tacoma TRD off road truck on Saturday 4/29/23. It is a sharp looking truck. Next year I planned getting the Trd suspension lift installed and upgrading to some 285/70R16 tires on my truck.

How are you liking your TRD OFF ROAD and the color ! And the 285 tires ! I just ordered same truck .
Excellent review, extremely informational!
Just bought a 2023 Tacoma, same color. Drives like a dream , compared tò my 2005 which lasted over 300k. The interior all black with some red is nice , love the clean and simple look.
Hopefully, I’ll be getting mine tomorrow! 🤞
Very good review...thanks. Minor correction, you dont have to remove the rear headrests to fold the seat down. The headrests have a hinge to fold them down.
Just purchased this taco today so stoked!

BIG THANKS.
HA, Go Cats Go! Love to Taco, the lines look awesome and the v6 is a must have for any East Texan hauling ANYTHING! I've seem other videos where the used trucks are more expensive than brand new ones, IF you can find the new ones! Been wanting one of these since they came out and hoping when the 2023's come out that I can find some good deals on last yea's model and FINALLY stop having to drag around a trailer for my dirt bike! I would rather go Ford and Buy USA but damn this is a great looking truck, thanks Cat Man (Krowicki) GREAT VIDEO!
Love the 3rd gen!!
Bought and modded out! Mine looks insane

Dream car.
My 2005 TRD Sport was totaled (roll over) last week by some idiot running a red light. It was 18 trouble free years. I walked away with nothing but bruises. Best truck I ever owned. I am searching for the replacement. Chevrolet Silverado's are too expensive and I will not drive a 4 cylinder truck. That is a major reason I will not wait for the 2024s to arrive. These trucks are bullet proof and that V6 is an excellent engine. Too many people are caught up with interior looks, it's a pick-up for crying out loud. I think I will test drive the Off Road and the Sport this time around and see how they compare on the road. The Canyon and Colorados are also way too overpriced.
Just got this same truck
I heading to Toyota tomorrow. If the numbers make sense, I’ll upgrade my 2018 TRD Sport for a 2023 TRD. If the difference is 10k or less, I’m going for it.
While filming I always have cats coming up to me. 😂
I live in a big city , corporate job and sick of it. Planning to move to the country side and looking for a wonderful pickup truck. Seems to me this is by far the most reliable engine. Looking forward to buying one and keep it for many years to come

The 2024 Tacomas are going to a 4-cylinder engine, so if you want a smaller truck with good horsepower, you might want to consider going with the 2023 models.

Has anyone ever heard of the IRS pay half of the truck you wanna get but it has to be 6000 LBS or more??? If so, does anyone know what weight requirement the IRS target, Curb Weight or Gross Vehicle Weight? Does Tacoma meet the requirement?
@Krowicki
Жыл бұрын
you can write off up to $28,900 of the purchase if a vehicle that has a GVWR between 6,000 lbs to 14,000 lbs. If the vehicle is less than 6,000 lbs you can still write it off in the same way but you can only write off $11,200. They’re not paying half of your vehicle for you but what this does is reduce the amount of tax you’ll pay. you’ll subtract this number from your income and only pay taxes on that number (assuming you have no other deductions). Tacomas come in at around 5,600 lbs

@@RecklessAsian1721 this isn’t something you have to tell the dealership about. rather you want to talk to an accountant. as far as i know you want to put the car in your business’s name. i would also have the discussion with an accountant first before buying the car as i’m not 100% about the details. quick chat with one about your situation could save you from making a big financial mistake.
