I have wanted a Tacoma for as long as I can remember. Iv'e had three other trucks in my life, a 1978 Chevy 3/4 ton, a 2009 Titan, a 2010 RAM 3/4 ton diesel. I wouldn't consider towing much of a trailer or hauling much of a load with the Tacoma but I guess that's not what it's made for. I bought the Tacoma for reliability. I have 50,000 miles on it with no real problems. I do find the transmission shifting frequently on the highway trying to find a comfortable gear to be in, a little annoying but I can live with it. I have had issues with the Entune system not functioning with my phone but I'm not sure if it's my phone (Motorola Turbo II) or the Entune system itself. It seems to only work when it wants, giving me a "system busy" notice on the screen. The dealer said the Entune system was set up to be used optimally with an iPhone. The Tacoma is not a rocket but it does have nice acceleration. I just like the truck and plan on having it for a few years. Update on the Entune system: It is a total joke, I hate it. If I had the choice between a Tacoma with Entune and another truck with better system, I would pick another truck...I HATE ENTUNE!

The seats are made for children and small women. The transmission hunts like beagle and the engine barely has enough power to get out of its own way.

Read all the reviews you want but if you are going outdoors you must be: nimble, reliable and unstoppable .. the Tacoma is the only vehicle that can fit this description. Yes, you can find more comfortable rides but if you are going camping, biking, hiking, or fishing, the vehicle you take should not even be a preparatory consideration, the Tacoma fits this requirement. They sale more and last longer for a reason ( Japanese brand=great quality ). If you want a serious offroad truck that is above the rest in dependability buy a Tacoma.... You will be glad. Tony Delgadillo from Hamer Toyota on sepulveda Blvd is the best option...great guy, easy to talk to very helpful and real with numbers trust me I did my homework before even thinking on showing up to test the Tacoma. Tony D. thank you so much for your help.
