Great video! Just subscribed. 👍🏻I’m thinking about getting this exact same truck with the manual and 4x4. I’m a simple man and for me it’s a rugged truck it’s not meant to have leather and all the nice features, it’s meant to do the job and get me home safe. That’s all I need.

You won't be disappointed. So much better to live with than the previous gen. Welcome to the channel!

It's a nice truck. Shame about the rear doors and the price hike. All the tech in the world doesn't make up for the loss of those doors. I suspect many will get traded in early once their owners realize what a pain in the butt it is owning one of these without the rear doors to access what's back there. This will definitely help Nissan though. They still have rear doors on their King Cab and a V6 standard!

I could see that. There’s decent space but you have to flip the front seat up

honestly... im waiting for buying from home... i dont want to go to the dealer... that is the problem.

this is the 3rd review of this truck and not one talked about towing ability?

I agree with you, been trying to get some actual info on the chassis. Seems to me all these reviewers got the same spiel from Toyota reps, we wanna know payload, towing, see the underside of the truck. Come on!

That great pickup truck graveyard in the sky… 🪦

I drive a 2016 Tacoma TRD Sport 4WD. Its transmission isn't good at all if left in Drive mode. Use the sport auto shifting, however, and it's awesome. Makes me wonder how many people keep it in Drive and have to sit through that horrible auto transmission.

You’re not wrong, and it does help the responsiveness of the old transmission, but this 8 speed in the new Tacoma is just on another level. So much more modern.

What’s the exact motor difference to the 280hp motor? Or is it cause the iforce gives it the extra hp?

I just bought a Tacoma work truck 6' bed. If shopping today would buy the least expensive 6' bed midsize truck, which Toyota was at that time. Fit and finish on my new Tacoma is way below par; sloppy I would say. Panel gaps don't match and the hood is a little crooked. Obviously not to Japanese standards. Drives OK 😊

This has been a common complaint. The seats easily flip forward, but I think they axed the doors to simplify costs.

Dude the towing is the same as the sr 2.7 from last year and the higher trims which have more hp and torque are the same the mileage is close to the same but drivability is greatly improved over the v6 and insanely compared to the old 2.7
