What about the cam tabs, they look the same as the ones that bend under some stress on the 2nd / 3rd gen. The hitch portion seems to be welded and seems to be stealing some departure or compromise the clearance. The truck looks awesome and would love to try that upgraded traction system to see how it actually compares to a true locked differential. Anyway, keep up the good work guys!

So, Turbos scare me now. But then also my mechanic explained that getting all that power from a 4cyl using a Turbo charger puts loads of stress on it which leads to engine issues later in its life.

Nice!!!!

I bet the damn greddy toyota dealers will be marking these 2024 tacoma trd pro and trd trail hunter trucks up at a minimum markup of 5 to 7 grand over the mark price that will more than likely be 60 to 65 grand. I had a toyota dealer in Johnson city, TN marking up a 2023 Tacoma TRD Pro in solar burst color by 5,000.00 for total sales price of 58,500.00. I told them to keep it and sell it to another fool who is stupid enough to pay that absurdly high markup just to say they own a Tacoma TRD pro truck.

That is insane. I haven’t looked at prices in a while, mostly because I can’t afford another Toyota!

Not worthy the price. Should have had front lockers and a better suspension like fox and 35s like chevy did with the zr2

Ok, im at 10 inches of ground clearance on 31's. The new tacoma is on 33's at 9.5 inches. No thanks toyota, I'll keep my 22 tacoma.

I would do S.A.C. on Tacoma. Toyota should have did a solid axle on the front.

They should have options. Ford did it on their trucks. I know that is the best thing i did to my Tacoma.

@@Golden-69 Let me know where these solid axle Fords are outside of the super duty line...

This looks like a 75k truck 😢

Agreed. Unfortunately.

There is nothing wrong with drum brakes. You get 90-95% of the discs’ performance but they last twice as long.

I don’t know. I have driven tacomas with the disc brake conversion and it’s a noticeable difference on heavy rigs.

Wrong

“Jacking up the price”….. Everyone….”we want more backseat space” Toyota…”ok here’s some stupid seats that no one asked for and take up more room and cost more” The seats are stupid and should have been an option.

Get rid of the onboard air and all that junk, get rid if that ugly mole pannel and toss in a front locker.... this is a huge mistake.

Something for everyone my friend. You can just not check those boxes when ordering.

If it doesn't past 150k miles, I'm returning the truck. Finally, the new tacoma has flush gas lid

It is not a bad truck at all!

I have no understanding why someone would want to run 35” tires on a Taco. Have you guys ever actually tried to rotate a set of 33s? I have and my back still hurts. 35s will destroy your fuel economy. The extra unsprung weight will make the ride worse. The extra rotating mass will reduce acceleration and braking. You’ll also need to regear. No thank you very much. It will look cool in the parking lot at the mall.
