Toyota Tacoma

"The 6-cylinder engine provides ample acceleration and power. The truck handles very well in town and on the road."

"4 cylinder not good on power or fuel."

"It will go anywhere at anytime. It is a beast......"

"love the way the truck holds the road"

"Appropriate for he size and functional features of the truck."

"poor engine performance and terrible wind noise"

"The automatic shifting is jolting and not smooth."

"Don't like the way the vehicle accelerates."

"As expected for a small truck."

"Drives like a car"

"Sluggish acceleration"

"I would buy a 6-cylinder if I bought another Toyota Tacoma. There is not enough power in the 4-cylinder."

"I received a good value when I leased my 2013 Toyota Tacoma."

"I have the I-4 engine. It doesn't have the "pep" of the larger engine"

"The bucket seats need more padding. I have no blind spots, 360 degrees of safety ."

"Sluggish acceleration. Seems underpowered at times. Handles well, but would prefer a smoother ride, even for s truck."

"My Toyota 4x4 pu drives like an SUV. Very stable in ice and snow. Pulls my 16 foot trailer loaded with no strain or loss of control."

"I have the v-6 engine which is generally acceptable. However, in the FL heat, I think it's slightly under-powered (with AC) and using ethanol gasoline. I recently switched to non-ethanol and will soon know if this is an improvement in performance."

"Great acceleration. I would prefer less engine braking in 5th gear to allow for more coasting. Handles great. The factory trailer sway does a great job at keeping trailers running straight at 70 mph on highway."

"Acceleration is somewhat sluggish, although may not be much different than other pickups."

"Excellent power delivery for the horsepower rating. Handles leaps ahead of a full size truck."

"Acceleration is fair. I can't see the truck having enough power to tow at its maximum tow rating. 4WD engagement is temperamental. They should have put in the manually engaged (lever actuated) transfer case in the Tacoma that was used in the FJ."

"Quite underpowered (4 cyl). Seat puts driver low in the vehicle (I am 5'11"). Ride is "jittery""

"All good"

"under powered"

"bumpy ride on city streets. Too much noise in cabin and wind noise"

"windshield not tight. whistles at high speeds"

"4 cylinder chugs along - under powered"

"This is a stripped down version so the 4cyl. engine is under powered for the weight. Tires also wear down quickly."

"Poor initial acceleration. It wants to shift up too soon."

"acceleration is exceptional drives well"

"great driving quick repsonse in emergencies great body style"

"Gas mileage good with nice handling and acceleration. This is a great work vehicle."

"Drives great ride is smooth."

"This truck gets up and goes! The six cylinder with auto transmission does an excellent job of moving everything from furniture to firewood anytime, anywhere. This is my second Tacoma, and I plan on keeping it a long time."

"This thing is pretty gutless. I am very disappointed with the power and acceleration, especially when you factor in that the truck still gets very poor fuel economy. If I get bad economy, I expect a lot of power. With aftermarket suspension the truck handles high speed off road driving well, but is still harsh at lower speed and on the pavement."

"The 4 cylinder engine lacks power. Acceleration is slow, which makes the truck feel sluggish."

"It's a truck. I don't expect it to drive like a car. However, it is a fine highway vehicle and is comfortable on long trips."

"It is a V-6 that has a lot of power when I need to use it. I like the 4 wheel drive feature especially in the winter. The handling is very good and responsive."

"Rough ride. Too bouncy. To get up to speed you really need to step on the gas pedal."

"Excellant handling, acceleration, it is not affected by weather (Wind, rain, heat/cold). pulls loaded trailers handily"

"Great truck and excellent handling and drives super nice. Still drives like the day I purchased the vehicle"

"V6 engine is great for getting to speed on the freeway. The 4 wheel drive is the best part of the truck. It goes Everywhere!!"

"I have the 4 cyl. engine and in a hilly area I cannot use cruise because it would constantly be down shifting"

"The Tacoma is easy to drive. It is responsive and comfortable. It has great 360 visibility."

"Great acceleration and handling for a truck."

"Underpowered with 4 cylinder"

"Handles very good, trailers boats and utility trailers well with good traction and acceleration."

"The ride is stiff and loud on the highway. Would get a lesser model if I had to do it over again"

"I find it impossible to get a seat position comfortable enough for me to drive. I am short, and there is no way to raise the seat, limiting my visibility. As a result, my husband pretty much exclusively drives this vehicle."

"Very stiff ride. You get to "enjoy" all of our sorry SC roads. Fortunately I do not drive this vehicle very much."

"The passenger seat is very uncomfortable"

"I have a four door crew cab and it's okay in the front seats but definitely cramped in the back. I had a crew cab from the first year Toyota made them and there was much more leg room in the rear seat. It was my decision to go with a less frills model and while the sound system is great and I have a lot of comfort features, there are some things that I expected would automatically be on the truck but aren't, i.e. intermittent windshield wipers. All in all I would buy another Tacoma but be a litt..."

"I'm only 5'6" but getting behind the wheel and getting close to the wheel without have knees hit the dash, is tough to do."

"Terrible ride and uncomfortable seats."

"Seats are the best"

"Truck sits to high for ease of entry and exit."

"I have a hard time getting into the truck without hitting my head since I have short legs and long upper torso."

"Seats do not power adjust so had to have driver seat reinstalled higher than factory height; noisy interior, cannot easily hear radio or GPS guidance; ride is bumpy."

"Bad fuel economy"

"The driver's seat should have more adjustments."

"Seats are not comfortable. The ride is clunky as well as the steering."

"Wish we could have gotten heated seats"

"The road noise is difficult to overcome by the base model stereo system. Overall comfortable ride."

"There seems to be a lot more road noise than the 2005 RAV we had before."

"The runningboard is too high makin it difficult to enter the cab"

"Limited height in cab also lack of leather seats and power seats"

"Hard to get in and out of. The seat are no comfortable."

"comfortable seats, low noise"

"Getting in and out of the truck is difficult because of the height of the truck"

"I would have like to see the tacoma come with more amenities like power seats, heated seats, leather, etc.."

"Lots of blind spots"

"The rear leaf springs are inadequate and the vehicle bottoms out with no load in the cargo area"

"I would have expected a better built vehicle for a 2013 model. I have several pronounced rattles that, evidentially, are common - I.e defroster duct rattle at the dash, door noise, SR5 front passenger seat rattle. I also have loud rattles from the transfer case/manual transmission that Toyota has labeled "normal". There shouldn't be loud metallic knocks from the drive train when going over bumps. When in parking lots, these noises are loud enough for other people to stop and look. I believe it's"

"Tacoma should have an automatic temperature climate control system"

"I have back and knee problems. This truck is more comfortable than any truck or SUV I have owned. In the winter snow I never spun a tire when in four wheel drive."

"Quiet riding, good climate control."

"Nice truck. Lousy seats!!"

"seats should be electric for more comfort, wind noise is terrible, I'm waiting for rep to come to talk about the noise issues"

"Very good HVAC including seats."

"Seat does not have enough adjustment to be comfortable, not good for long drives, 4 cyl is under powered, on the highway downshifts at every hill and if the wind is blowing hard"

"It has poor acceleration but great towing ability . It also rides rough due to the towing suspension."

"road noises are loud"

"Driver's seat is too low. At 50K miles, too many rattles and squeaks. Steering is clunky."

"Noisy. Wind noise."

"Fairly stiff ride and noise when traveling on highway"

"smooth ride, excellent view of road,low noise level,seats are comfortable"

"When in the driver seat your butt sits lower. Seat just needs more padding."

"The ride is nice but not as comfortable being on the road as a car would be. Seats are comfortable but road noise is still an irritant."

"Still not many squeaks and cabin still comfortable."

"The ride is too stiff"

"Some road noise, driver's seat very comfortable"

"While only a nit, the arm rest could be more useful, and the steering wheel could telescope farther."

"The Tacoma is an easy truck to drive. Have made several 500+ mile trips in it and still felt good upon arrival. Good leg room and back support for driver."

"The seats and the interior noise with the Tacoma is fine, but I find the suspension to be very rough on anything but the smoothest pavement. Expansion cracks in the road are especially harsh."

"Too much road noise."

"The ride comfort needs a much needed upgrade."

"Seats are comfortable, and the car is quiet, but the suspension is a little too stiff for us old folks."

"The manual cloth seats are not height adjustable and usually are uncomfortable for me. Neither are they heated, which I really wanted."

"The truck is mostly fine, just a little low on the head room when entering the truck"

"Leather Seats did not hold up and it is pretty much the only one thing I am most disappointed about with this vehicle"

"It's a truck, so it tends to ride like a truck. But the ride is much more comfortable than the Honda Civic that I traded in for the Tacoma. The seats are much mire comfortable, and how you sit in the truck is better than in a small car. My back appreciates the angle of my legs."

"seats are not electrically adjustable so makes it some what uncomfortable on a long drive. vehicle is very noisy from wind, Toyota installed new weather stripping but it's still noisy. Toyota has been aware of this issue for many years but fails to address it"

"The seats are comfortable. Wind and road noise are good, it is a truck. Ride is good for a truck."

"The Tacoma is a very pleasant drive for a truck but the ride noise level is high."

"The seat materiel is coarse and uncomfortable on long drives. The seat sits too low making it difficult to see over the hood. Becomes uncomfortable on long drives. I'm 5'9" and a 175 lbs."

"Was not very happy with Toyota and their reasoning for cutting almost all options on my vehicle. My model has a manual 6 speed transmission and is a 4WD with an Access cab. It's like you've been penalized for getting a manual shift. No extras were offered in this model like what is available in the 4 door automatic version. The seats are the bare minimum and have absolutely NO comfort adjustments other than moving backwards and forward. No lumbar, no height and NO electric seat controls......all manual! Also, they cut out any frills like a moon/sun roof and the side window on the access door no longer open! This was a nice feature on the older models and one other thing they cut! So now you have to run the A/C or open the front window which is REALLY noisy."

"It is very reliable and durable. It has held up very well under extreme use and abuse."

"This vehicle holds its value very well."

"Base truck with crank windows. Perfect for household projects with decent gas mileage. Size makes it very maneuverable. Fits perfect in my garage. Price point is perfect for what it is."

"Lots of value for the small bucks...it may not have all the bells and whistles of more expensive trucks but it is perfect as a work truck"

"Now that Toyota no longer manufactures the regular cab Tacoma, the resale value has gone up to the point where I could sell my 3 year old model for just about what I paid for it."

"All"

"Good purchase price and excellent long term value"

"A very capable truck, pulls our boat w/ ease. Long bed and wheelbase create a comfortable ride. Controls are basic and easy to use. Driving position is good, love the back up camera especially for coupling to the trailers. Good balance of power and fuel economy."

"Still holds its value, Tacomas are sought after in my area and keep good values."

"Vehicle was well within local price requirements from other local Tacoma dealers"

"Excellent quality on the TRD Tacoma, Looks cool, Quality finish"

"It does exactly what it's supposed to."

"The Tacoma holds its' value and is very reliable.Since depreciation and maintenance are the two largest factors in the overall cost of a vehicle it is a very economical vehicle to own."

"Gas milage seems low. Visibility is limited, windows seem small. Jump seats are small and uncomfortable."

"My truck is worth almost as much, trade-in value, as I paid for it. I did get a good deal but to be worth just a slight bit less after 3 years is unbelievable."

"Very reliable"

"does what you expect a truck should do and does it better than many of it's larger brothers"

"Mechanical reliability and sensible engineering are great."

"The truck meets all my requirements. I can carry more than 1 passenger, the truck bed is adequate for my needs, the fuel economy is good. Very reliable truck. No issues."

"The Toyota Tacoma is a great value. The truck has has no issues since purchase."

"Everything continues to work. No problems at all. I place a high value on this reliability."

"Wanted Toyota based on previous Tundra experience; wanted to downsize. 2013 Tacoma is pleasant to look at and can accommodate pleasure driving with hauling capabilities, short trips/long trips; makes one feel relatively safe on the road; great braking response; rides relatively comfortably with good cabin space; controls/displays easy to read/access; relatively loud road noise; terrible rear bench seats; so far no major repair problems"

"Reliability"

"No bells and whistles to speak of except the bluetooth, but it's dependable and a great price for a new car. Unfortunate that you have to get the base model to get manual transmission."

"While the vehicle has been enjoyable to drive and very reliable, it does not have have many of the current technology features that exist in many vehicles."

"We wanted 4-wheel drive so we had to get the Sport package. I wish the seats were heated and easier to adjust. We also miss the keyless entry system that so many Toyota models have."

"Very reliable and good looking vehicle. Mechanically sound, except for a bad wheel bearing, (on all three that I have owned) and I do not drive off road, hit curbs etc., so it's difficult to understand."

"solid truck"

"Basic 4 cylinder model. No extras. Purchased for second vehicle with half ton hauling. Works exactly as I anticipated."

"Extras are somewhat limited. I got TRD package to get more options."

"Some wind noise."

"I've been very satisfied with my Tacoma after owning it for the past five years. The only repair it needed was a loose turn signal light. It's sturdy, reliable, and I'll probably keep it for many more years."

"I think these trucks are overpriced and Toyota knows they are popular and do NOT offer any breaks on financing. You can get a better deal on a new Tundra than a Tacoma. They get poor gas mileage, are noisy on the road and tend to be uncomfortable on long trips. They are good for hauling and pulling up to a limit, which if you push it, you'll find out the truck is too light to easily pull larger loads."

"Tacoma trucks hold their value extraordinarily well. After almost 5 years, I could sell the truck for just about what I paid for it. Add to that the fact that it has required no repairs and only routine maintenance, it all adds up to big value."

"poor fuel economy"

"My Tacoma is full sized, with king cab. I am satisfied with the body style but I settled for a four cylinder engine. This truck is underpowered. I should have spent the extra money for a six cylinder engine. The gas mileage would probably still be about the same or better."

"The Tacoma is virtually a trouble free vehicle. Very dependable."

"Cost was reasonable for a work vehicle"

"modern style that's does not go out of date"

"I live the fairly aggressive look of the truck."

"front end"

"A very good looking pick up truck. Able to do what I want without the hassle of a large gas consuming vehicle."

"i prefer round wheel wells rather than the rakish style."

"it sits high and gets a lot of comnents."
