Toyota Tacoma Change Vehicle

"Poor gas mileage! Manuel transmission not right. 2nd gear is too fast eg must shift to first gear going around a corner."

"turning radius is large for the size of the vehicle"

"Acceptable acceleration,at times rough ride, but I expect that from a pickup truck,"

"Excellent acceleration best vehicle I have ever owned"

"I have the 4.0 litre V6. in my Tacoma. Plenty of power to pull medium trailer and great acceleration. Responsive steering,"

"Good acceleration but engine sounds like it is straining at times during acceleration. Sometimes I feel like I am driving a "boat""

"Good acceleration and handles well for a truck."

"It can't get out of its own way. It's extremely underpowered."

"Although its a 4 cylinder truck, the acceleration is good and handling is very good"

"I would not get a standard transmission next time. makes it uncomfortable to drive in stop and go traffic"

"Clutch pressure extremely high, difficult in traffic"

"When towing our travel trailer, this truck becomes a 3-legged dog. The rest of the time, it's peppy."

"Very comfortable, good acceleration,power"

"Love the tight turn around radius."

"Pretty economical to run, and the engine system is excellent."

"2 wheel drive 4 cyl; generally pretty gutless for towing anything heavy and poor in snow."

"This is a 4 cylinder motor. The acceleration could be better."

"the one thing that stands out in the Tacoma has to do with acceleration. and not in a good way.... during the use and operation of the cruise control system, the vehicle will suddenly and unexpectedly accelerate at a rapid rate. seemingly uneccessarily"

"Vehicle is equipped with a towing package. I regularly tow a travel trailer and am very satisfied with its performance under tow."

"The only thing I have been disappointed with this vehicle is the blind spots. It's terrible to see around in parking lots especially. There seems to be so many areas where you can't tell what is around or close to the vehicle. Adjusting the mirrors doesn't seem to help this."

"A V6 would be so much better"

"Drives great in the snow. We get a lot of snow."

"Under powered"

"Excellent power & acceleration. Handles superbly."

"For a truck its size, it has amazing towing capacity and acceleration.Very stable, great tough driving capability in DEEP (Lake effect) snow."

"Husband loves this truck. He says it drives like a dream."

"very reliable and practical, but rides and drives like a threshing machine; noisy, surging, hesitating, awkward and abrupt shifts; gas mileage should be better"

"Stiff seating. Hard to get in and out of truck due to post market suspension lift modification made by previous owner. Lot of road noise due to failing back wheel bearings; makes it feel like you're in a plane about to take off."

"The seats and ride are comfortable but there is a lot of wind noise."

"Great ride"

"too noisy, rides rough"

"very good on long trips...especially for a truck"

"Seats lack support and heigth. Have purchased several seat cushions over the life of the Tacoma for comfort and back support."

"Many long trips, many miles, and I can't blame the truck for being the source of discomfort. Roomy cab helps, as does the handling, which is superb."

"The seats sat a little low when I purchased the vehicle but I raised them slightly and now they are perfect."

"What can I say, it's a pickup."

"Comfortable cloth seats with smooth quiet ride."

"Just not comfortable"

"Road noise, wheel shimmy, climate control switch stopped working on high speed, (known problem) Ride bumpy."

"Seats are not comfortable, engine and wind noise, ride is poor."

"seat (bench) is uncomfortable on long rides. noisy at highway speeds. had to repair both sunshades due to poor construction"

"Air conditioning broke after 3 years of ownership"

"The interior road noise is more than expected, and the window tint is not as dark as I would like, and I am not expecting limo dark just dark enough to reduce sun heating of the interior."

"The trucks ride is harsh and not very comfortable."

"There is not enough leg room in the truck. I wish there were bucket seats instead of one seat. Passenger has different heights and cant adjust according to passenger"

"Disappointed! New electronic locking mechanism in drivers door, new water pump, recall on rear leaf springs. Expensive fixes."

"I had a 97 Tacoma that had significant rust on the frame. Toyota bought it from me for approximately $11000 and gave me a $1000 coupon towards another Toyota product."

"Amazingly reliable so good savings in a long run. Tacomas are still too high priced in my opinion, so to me that hurts the value, but the initial cost shock is softened considerably by the reliabilty, performance and utility of the vehicle. Plus, I think the styling for me exceeds other brand trucks. It's also a great size, not too big, not too small."

"This vehicle has cost a great deal in unexpected repairs including two air conditioning units"

"I learned many years ago to work with the fleet managers.."

"Last year this truck was recalled because of holes found in the frame. Toyota had my vehicle for 7 months, during which time they loaned me a 2015 Corolla. Toyota spent $13,000 on the repairs! Would like to drive a newer truck with latest "gadgets" but with all the repairs done, I will continue to drive this one."

"Three recalls. oil pan rusted out air conditioner tube rusted"

"Well built, very reliable, a great work vehicle."

"I have owned the Tacoma for 8 years and have not had any major work done besides tires and brakes."

"187,000 miles 4wd never a problem. I will stick with Toyota"

"We purchased the Tacoma in late 2007 and it has been a solid and reliable vehicle and has had no major problems. The engine strains a bit going uphill in ECO mode but does all right in standard mode. That's fine with us but drivers who want more power probably would be happier with a 6-oCyl model. Overall, we have gotten a lot of use our of the Tacoma and hope to keep it for several years more."

"It's a real trooper, very dependable and is great to have in the winter. Definitely a road warrior for hauling."

"Trucks unfortunately cost more to buy due to the much higher profit made on them, compared to sedans. They dont cost any more to manufacture than sedans."

"They're bulletproof in terms of durability. This is my third small Toyota pickup and I've loved each one. When I sold the two former ones I was pleasantly surprised at the value they retained."
