I've been driving BMWs for quite a awhile but my wife and I entered the home renovation phase that required multiple trips to Lowes/HomeDepot and similar stores. The day I had to pay a guy with a truck $20 to assist me with delivering some drywall was the day I knew we needed a truck in our household. Not a BMW but for a mid-size truck, comfortable and agile enough to move around town without mowing everyone down. I purchased a special 'demo' version that contains almost every accessory available and it's a sharp looking vehicle. My wife, kids and even the dogs seem to enjoy it. I feel good that I don't have to worry tearing up $60K plus vehicles while renovating our home.

Had a '14 4cyl. Tacoma access cab that I hit/bounced off a bridge 2 X at 70 MPH all bags (except passenger - no passenger) went off. It was totaled but crumpled as designed and trans/engine went into pavement as designed. It saved my life and no injuries. Replaced it with this '13 pre runner with a 4.0 six cyl. Get real avg. 20 MPG. Installed a Firestone rear airbag kit and the ride improved dramatically carrying 10 psi. with no load. I am an old guy and do not race around but plenty of power for me. We have had a 4runner, Landcruiser and several older off road junk tacomas. They all did their job and lasted if maintained.

I love this truck!! Legendary reliability and resale value is ridiculously high! I have a v6 tx edition pre runner double cab so it has a tough rugged look. Cant even count how many compliments Ive gotten on how badass the truck looks, I had a crewmax tundra and the taco is much easier to maneuver and more comfortable to drive daily, although the interior is smaller, my 2 kids and the wife fit comfortably. My only regret is not getting the 4x4 but I'm not much of an offroader. I mainly use the vehicle to drive to work , plenty of stop n go lights but gas mileage is decent and you don't notice the meter move unlike full size trucks.

A Little Give And Take

First, let me say I love my Tacoma (2013 TRD Off Road) despite its shortcomings. While considered a compact truck, the cab is about the same size as my 1965 F100, showing how much trucks have inflated! Life is give and take, and this applies to the Tacoma as well. Here’s the “give”. The truck has power to spare from the 4.0, and the automatic shifts smoothly. I sometimes drive for hours at a time and have never had any complaints about the ride or comfort. The truck is loaded, and one of my favorite features is the JBL audio system. Folding down the rear seat of the double cab gives ample usable hauling space to make up for the bed, but I get ahead of myself. Now the “take”. The dash is loaded with switches, most of which I have never used, and some of which I’m still not sure of the purpose. If it weren’t for the 4-low setting the truck would be useless as an off road vehicle. Locking the rear end or using 4-high to get out of any situation is a frustrating act of futility. Also, the 4-wheel system is electric, so we’ll see how it holds up. 15.6 mpg. Not much else to say there. The 5-foot bed is a joke, but if you’re not going to use it as a heavy hauler (and why would you) it’s fine. Light loads and cruising are it’s forte. Overall the Tacoma is a great truck for general use.
