You do know the more recent (2016-) Tacomas have tranny issues off the lot right?

With a truck I would hardly call a 4 year old design that is still best in class "up in age".
It’s getting a major refresh for the 2020 model and expected to be redesigned in 2022.
To each their own, but I’d rather not buy a vehicle this late in a generation cycle. At the very least I’d wait for the 2020 model.

Any list that has the fricking Honda Ridgeline First or Second is a complete scam
I know the truck nuts jacked up Bawdozer driving crowd is not known for being open minded but if you actually test drove one head to head v. Any of the other mid sized trucks you would see how nice the Ridgeline is compared to others in it's segment. You will find it rides and handles way better. Though the GM rides much better than the Taco and and Nissan it's still a full step below the Ridgeline. Interior quality (materials and fit/finish) is vastly superior to the likes of the Colorado. The Ridgeline is closer to full sized width and it really shows in interior comfort and roominess. You can sit a 4x8 sheet of plywood flat in the bed. Too bad Honda made it ugly as shite because it's a really damn nicely featured and performing vehicle. Towing is about the only thing the Colorado would be better at but if I were doing any real towing it wouldn't be in any mid sized truck.

Right now Ford and Toyota Tundra are the trucks dominating.
well real statistics show the big 3 are basically even with tundra actually having more problems than the other 2. And Ram being close. But lets just lie and say tundra because yota be cool. Posted on 5/1/19 at 10:49 am to DeoreDX
No shite a Ridgeline “rides and handles better” than a truck because it’s arguably more car than truck.
It’s just funny to me when people try to hold trucks to car standards with these sort of things. No one that needs or wants a truck is considering a Ridgeline. Not to say it’s a bad vehicle at all but still.

I have on I bought after the flood to rebuild my house. It is a good vehicle and gets decent gas mileage. I have the v6 and for a light as the truck is, if you sit on the accelerator, it does not respond well. I drive normal, so it is not a big deal to me. All in all I would say it’s a good truck.

Colorado just won tests vs the new Jeep Gladiator, Ridgeline, and Ranger.
Car and drivers best mid size winner (plus won motor trends multiple times)

I wouldn't say that. You can haul things in it's bed that you can't in a car or SUV, so it has some truck capabilities, which is really all 75% of the truck owners need. Most truck today are SUV's with a truck bed that never gets used.

I had one for a day as a loaner. They drive great, has a lot more power than you would expect and the Bose audio system is great. I am strongly considering it for my next truck. That is all I got.
How was the interior room? Did it feel like a car cab?

I don't know if you're asking about the Colorado or not yeah, but they said it has more room than the ranger and Tacoma

It’s a close contest, but the Toyota Tacoma’s status as our top-ranked compact pickup truck tells the story. The Tacoma leads the pack with class-leading reliability and excellent safety scores, and its superior interior features help seal the deal.
I will agree the Toyota reliability and customer satisfaction is legendary. But I have been in both and the Colorado has a better interior than the Tacoma.

I had a 2016 Canyon that was a total piece of shite. Entire steering column had to be replaced with 11,000 miles on it. Various other rattles/squeaks, etc. don’t do it.

Why would you buy half a truck. Fuel mileage is very marginally better and it has less power and less capabilities.
I was looking at them for a commuter vehicle in Houston, but still have a truck bed. Then I realized I could get an F150 ecoboost for around the same price with the same mileage. No reason for the colorado/canyon unless you are dealing with limited garage space.

Toyota makes great vehicles but the fan boys and their undying hatred of anything GM or Ford always exposes their ignorance.

This. Numerous technical service recalls are required.
