Anyone have one of these? Thoughts? I considering replacing my older Ram for something more economical and giving it to my son in 2 years when he gets his license. My Ram is in great shape but I have a decent offer on the table for it.

I’ve never liked the Tacoma’s but I saw the new models last night and really liked it.

It's a great truck.
Just please don't come back to the OT and start a thread on how expensive they are when you start shopping.

And yes you will mostly find dealers who are charging MSRP plus a sizable mark-up.

Wait a bit. Vehicle repossessions are skyrocketing.

110k miles on our 2014 Tacoma. Probably will run to 300 and last for 20 years. They're indestructible trucks. Probably will always have one of some kind.

I have a 2015 Tacoma TRD Sport. I love it. I have just over 109,000 miles on it and I haven’t had any issues other than replacing a battery and the usual maintenance like oil changes and replacing the air filter.

I get about 18 to 19 mpg, mostly highway.

Sure

It’s the only vehicle I’ve ever owned and will ever own. I don’t need a tundra to pull shite. My Tacoma does everything I need.

If I have a 3rd kid, my wife will be upgrading her vehicle, not me

No idea how it translates to a Tacoma. But my 2006 Tundra has 230k on it and still drives great. Ill probably look into getting a Tacoma next as I dont need the power/size of the Tundra any longer.

Always had great experiences with Toyotas.

I’ve got one. 2006 with 114k on it. Bought it from an old man last year. I get about 17 mpg. I just use it to drive back and forth to work and get around town in. Plenty of space for me, my wife, and two small kids.

I’m on my 2nd one. VERY reliable vehicle. Just hitting its stride at 100k miles.

Great trucks with proven reliability that won't disappoint

but a truck that small should have better MPG than it does, there are V8 full size trucks with the same MPG as a Tacoma with a V6

I like mine a lot. Only real downside is the inside is pretty cramped if you're a big ole baw

I got a Sport back in November and I was very lucky b/c there was no dealer markup BS. The only negative I can say is that mine is the Barcelona Red color and I wish one of the colors from the 2021 models were still available.

I still haven’t seen a Moon Rock color of anything yet.
