interior is nice and the truck design is sharp but the transmission is junk. It constantly shifts and it learns the way you drive which is a terrible option for a truck. The truck will cruise at 1000rpm which is way to low for that 3.5l. Not enough torque to pull that off. I like everything else but the driving experience is so bad i am forced to trade it in. Don't want to but i have never been more frustrated in a truck just driving down the street.

After 5 years driving this 2016 bought new after trading in a 2008 Taco SR 5 and getting 85% of original price I am still enjoying. I have had battery issues and Toyota replaced 1st one after only 6 months use. 2nd one has been dead after truck sat for over 7 days. After 36 month service they suggested it was my driving habits or not driving enough causing battery issue. So, now I put on trickle charge if not driving often. Just had 60 month service and said battery good. Don't like transmission searching gears or heighth of driver side handle with window controls that my knee hits on. But, still enjoy driving it and has great aggressive appearance.

Review of 2017 double cab TRD sport. Great looking truck, alot of compliments. Interior materials very good and lots of interior storage. Truck vibrates at all speeds. You can feel in thru the floor, pedals and steering wheel. Hands will go numb after 20 min on the highway. A lot of similar feedback thruout the internet. Dealer tried to fix once, but more or less gave up. Toyota opened a case, had many discussions, their final ruling was "the truck falls within specs". So, specs let my hands go numb after 20 minutes. No help at all from Toyota and the Dealer. This is my 4th Toyota truck and my last Toyota product. I now have a truck with 5000 miles I cannot drive. After a lot of discussion and traded it in for a Chevy Colorado. I have had the Colorado for 6 months now, great truck, 100% better than the Tacoma. Smooth ride, fantastic ride. I will never own another Toyota.........I have had my Colorado for a year. 100% better than the Toyota, I will never own another Toyota when there is much better out there.

The newer engine shifts more frequently. For a small truck it does get good mileage. Have not seen less than 18 on average with a heavy foot. Great ride. Snow and traction is fantastic. This is my never to get stuck truck. I went with this truck because of a locking rear. This really helps in the snow and crawl control is amazing. But everything works so well that i probably will never get to use it. Now what they don't tell you directly. Locking rear is for top speed 5mph. No Power seat. But once it is adjusted you tend not to move it. The reason i went with this truck is it has the highest resale value of any vehicle. I am tired of buying top of the line truck and 75,000 miles later it has no value. Not true for toyota. I also looked at the overall fitment and construction both inside and underneath and nothing comes close to attention to detail. It just looks and fells more well thought out.

JUNK - Worst Vehicle I Have Ever Bought

JUNK: I just bought a brand new Toyota Tacoma from a dealership, here in the Dallas/Fort Worth area. It is a 2017 Tacoma - Limited.... I have never DESPISED a vehicle so much in my life and totally wish I could take the damn thing back. A. GAS MILEAGE - gets 13-14 MPG, doesnt matter if you take the interstate or backroads. The thing is a gas hog and JEEPS and other full-sized trucks get better MPG. Absolute total JUNK B. The so-called new Electric Transmission B.S. - Absolute JUNK - it shifts weird, it is slow (okay I guess, if you are an old man or old woman that loves to cruse at about 30 mph. HORRIBLE - and I absolutely despise it. C. Software onboard - absolutely TERRIBLE. THe GPS lags, it is NOT user friendly and they don't use Android or Apple iOS friendly software so, you have to get used to their CRAPPY TOYOTA SOFTWARE. Bloat/Junkware is what it is. D. Drive - the Drive - Feels like a LINCOLN or a Cadillac. Might be okay if again: you are an 80 year old man or woman that loves the feel of a slow, squooshy cadillac that feels top heavy and bouncy. Absolutely a TERRIBLE drive and feel to it. E. Handling - The steering wheel feels like that of a big TRACTOR. Reminds me of when I was back on the farm, in IOWA... Loose steering, you can't take your eyes of the road for a split second or you are swearving into the other lane or onto a curb... F. Oh, and only one door handle unlocks the truck... Keyless entry will only unlock the POS if you are on the drivers' side... and there is NO KEYLESS Start... It is a Limited, with no extra features, but sold as if it is Fully Loaded... Totally not - it's over priced JUNK... MY VOTE FOR THE WORST VEHICLE: the Toyota Tacoma... I hate this darn truck more than any vehicle I have ever driven in all 36 years of my life... JUNK!
