My 2012 reg cab 4x4 gets very poor fuel milage . And forget trying to pass another car . The build is very poor . Right front inside fender Well keeps falling out . It is put together with snaps . After twice in the shop . I am putting screws in it . The manual stick leather boot fell through when I dropped my phone on it . Once again it is snapped in. Now falls out easy . Worst truck I have owned . I have owned at least 20 new trucks . I had a Tundra the first year they came out . It was a great truck .And had a 85 toyota 4x4 that was indestructible . This truck should be nick named the lego truck . I can't believe how much Toyota has moved toward such poor quality .

My second Tacoma. Not much to say. Very reliable and a joy to drive. They're great off road, for camping trips, lots of other adventures. Been very satisfied with my purchase and plan on keeping for many more years to come.

The engine is solid overall a great truck. However the leg room on back is limited. Also the AC is not adécuate enough specially in hot months. Other than that is a good truck.

Reliable, value driven utility vehicle with multiple purposes. Comfortable but not luxurious or techy
