Haha yes

8.20.22 Just bought a 2017 SR5, without all the extras, with 62k miles on it, and I am stoked. In today's market I got a very good deal with an impeccable documented full maintenance report, and super clean inside and out. And anything I want to upgrade and add-on, won't break my bankroll over time, but as is, it has everything anyone would want, and drives smooth and tight. Great truck!

How many miles on your taco?

I love my 2017 tacoma ❤

I bought last year a 2017 Tacoma TRD Sport. I put 2 inch lift n 285 Renegade tires. It’s my first Tacoma but I used to own Dodge Ram , f150 n Silverado., they are all good truck. The Tacoma has only 21k miles n paid $30,500. I love driving it every day.

Looking for a tacoma to buy and I've been thinking about the 2017 tacomas too. Nice video!

Just bought a 2017 Tacoma and loving it

2017 sr5 double cab gang. Single owner 63K miles. Love it

I got a 2017 tacoma sr and after all these years I have to say I have had no problems just changed the oil on time like you I never buy the first year of a veicle when it's been re designed plus we got alot of little things double storage boxes in the bed a couple of extra cubby holes in the dash that I've heard people on the channels have mentioned a few other things

This is an awesome video! I’m looking at a 2016-2018 Tacoma and this helps. I’m just unsure if to go with an SR5 or a TRD variant. Not sure if it’s worth it or not

Have a 2017 trd off-road 4x4 premium technology pkg bought it brand new, have had no issues yet. Love my truck, im at 70,000 miles. Toyota also gave me $5,000.00 off msrp.

Just got a 2017 sport trd 4x4 first one ever. It came with 2in lift but stock tires and wheels. Love your stance. Exactly what I want. How does it drive on highway and town. And what are you specs and brands?

Was about to look into a 2016 used with 96k miles but this video made me rethink that. I beat the 2014 was the best year actually compared to the late 2010’s models.

2020 has no recalls too and it's a pre-COVID year.

I have a 2017 4x4 extended cab and I special ordered a manual 6 speed trans. Most of the issues with the 2017 are with the automatic trans.

Great info

My Tacoma is a 2016, secretive if the 2.7 L four-cylinder. Ironclad engine. Most if not all of the reported issues are with the v6 drivetrain

My ‘19 has the auto braking feature because of the camera in the grill. I love the Toyota safety sense features, in my 80,000 miles I put on it so far, I’ll admit that it did save me once from rear-ending someone. (It was my own fault, long day of work after not sleeping well the night before and wasn’t as alert as I should have been, P.S., I’m human)

I always thought too about how not to get the 1st year of any vehicle new features

The first 3 years of gen 3 Tacomas have a plethora of issues. They’re still good vehicles and are more reliable than 1/2 of the other vehicles out there , but I’d still stay away from 16,17,18 years. Starting in 2019 they ironed out a lot of those issues. By 2020 they were golden. Best years: 2020 2021 2022 2023

Car care nut specifically stated that 2016, 2017, and 2018 all had issues. Its 2019 and up that it all gets fixed. 2016 was definitely the worst year though. After 2016 its just little minor issues. I think 2021 and up is the best years since you actually get a powered seat and all the technology like radar cruise control and a better screen. I just got a 2023 SR5 V6 4wd in Silver. Love it. You can disable the radar and collision stuff if you don't want it but I think its nice to have. I saw a tacoma review with 318,xxx miles and the radar stuff still worked fine. All original.
