Tacoma Access Cab SR5 2.7L 4 cylinder, automatic

2006 Tacoma Access Cab SR5 2.7L automatic tranny. Mine is used for light hauling and trailering my 16 foot Boston Whaler boat. It trailers the boat just fine . It launches and pulls the boat up the boat ramps with ease. I added the bolt on trailer receiver right to the bumper in the supplied holes and added the plug and play trailer light kit. Love this truck. I only wish that it had aux jack for the stereo( iPhone connect). It is too old to have Bluetooth ( even better). The other stereo issue is that FM/AM radio mode doesn't show text( ie- song name, artist) CD mode does. Great value and plenty of power from the 2.7L four banger. Plan to keep it a long time. Currently has 57000 miles. Only repair was battery replaced. I installed red top Optima( should last a while in this South Florida heat).

I have a 2006 tacoma double cab. I am am avid flyfisherman in utah. It has taken me places here in utah that alot of trucks can't. This truck is almost 16 years old. I bought it in 2012. I have had to change the tires once, the heater blower motor and the air conditioner systym because the compressor siezed up. I did the replacement for both. Blower motor was extremely easy. The air conditioner not so much. Paint is starting to fade, I'm going to have it professionaly painted when I do. Hopefully olive drab. Been a great truck. In my view the tacoma is the best midsize truck by far. I'm sure some people will disagree with me. Drives like a champ and some of the places I have taken it should have been on horseback. I will buy a new truck someday but probable not for at least 10 years. I will keep this truck when I do. Probably have to be an electric truck. Hopefully toyota will offer am electric truck, because I don't trust any other automakers Hopefully this review helps you.

Great little truck

2006 Toyota Tacoma 2dr Regular Cab SB (2.7L 4cyl 5M)
2 of 2 people found this review helpful
Toyota truck number three for me. Base 2wd, regular cab, short bed. The second I shifted into second gear on the test drive I knew she was mine. I love the front end styling of the truck, but think the rear end is ugly. Mileage consistently in the very low 20s (mix of hwy and city) which is a little disappointing. The truck accelerated the same with 1,000 lbs of sand in the back or with nothing in the back, which surprised me (a good thing). I love my little truck.

I echo many of the posted comments that are happy with truck. I am very picky, and point out at stop lights and in traffic at or below idle there is a slight shudder in the drive train. It happens when the AC is on. I feel it in a slow takeoff with my pedal foot. This happens at 1k idle or less. I am surprised over bumps you get feedback that I would have not expected, and it's likely due to needing to dampen the shocks and springs in the rear. I guess they are doing this in anticipation of the payload, but it would be nice to have the option to set the drive style. Other than that, excellent HP for a 6 cyl and good highway experience.
Great Truck Except

I love my truck; researched thoroughly before I made the purchase. I traded a 2003 Silverado and there really is no comparison between the two vehichles. I have put 4000 miles on it in all types of weather conditions and have to say that the driving experience is a pleasure. Going from the V8 in the Chevy to the V6 was a concern, but it turns out that my Tacoma has power to spare when needed. This is truly a great truck except for one issue that I hope to get resolved and does not cause any long term damage. I notice a tapping in the engine, only on cold starts and it certainly has me alarmed although it quits after the engine is warm. My dealership will resolve this issue.
