Was a long time Toyota owner, bought another without doing heavy research. Style, brakes, interior, all fine. Transmission is gutless. The worst driving experience. I have to use the ECT tow button every where i drive and leave it in manual 4th gear to get any decent driving experience. Avoid.

Overall the newly designed Tacoma is nice truck. Luckily I have a three year lease on this truck. With 26 months into the lease and only 13K miles on the truck it is starting to bubble rust on the rocker sills where the weather seal attaches to the sill ... (very disappointing). The passenger side speaker in the dash near the A-pillar rattles annoyingly. I had a water stream running down the inside of the rear sliding window up in the corner on the drivers side while raining. There were two different times I climbed into the truck with a thick frost build up on the inside of the wind shield. (Yes it was near zero degrees outside but really??) Final note, looking forward to the end of my lease.

I waited to make this review after 1 year of driving. I love the high stance and ground clearance that have always made Tacoma’s stand apart. So far I love driving it. I am happy with the power and the peace of mind knowing it will last me many years of trouble free driving. After all, it’s the same engine found in Lexus, Sienna, Highlander and Camry. I agree the transmission likes to shift to the next gear quickly but I am getting decent mileage. Averaging 21-22mpg on regular fuel. If I get tired of the early shifting, I can press the ECT button and I’ve got plenty of power to keep or pass fellow motorists with ease. I can tell the interior material will last. The cloth seats and interior plastic feel very durable. I personally love the seating position. Toyota could put a little more features in the vehicle but the lack of cutting edge features is what helps keep Toyota reliable. Love the power sliding rear window. I get plenty of compliments. Update At 30k miles I have had a great experience. Still drives like new. So far I’ve had to replace the rear brake light due to a leak and battery died right at 2 year mark. Other than that truck has been very reliable.

Recently traded in my 2015 Tundra for a 2017 Tacoma TRD Off Road. Paid almost exactly for the Tacoma what I paid for the Tundra two years ago (approx $37,500). I have driven Tundras since 2008 and loved them but I thought downsizing would be good since I rarely used the Tundra's full size capability and only averaged 15 MPG for mostly highway driving. So the Tacoma looks good and has a smaller engine, so I guessed better mileage and ease of parking at Wal-Mart. I have driven it about 800 miles so these are my first impressions. Driver seat is VERY uncomfortable for me and I can't adjust it to fit me properly. I am 5' 10" and 200 lbs. THERE IS NO POWER DRIVER SEAT. My wife's Honda CRV has a power memory seat for gosh sakes!!. C"mon Toyaota. Wake up to who is buying this vehicle. Printed pattern on the seats looks like a design from the 1980's. The engine is my other complaint. Again, I am used to the big V-8 Tundra, but the Tacoma just feels under powered. When you push down on the gas pedal it seems like it has to downshift to go faster, or entering the highway seems to tax it's capabilities. Mileage so far is about 18MPG while I expected at least 20. The electronics and navigation are easy to use. If you want one, take it on a much longer test drive than I did. I regret my decision to buy this vehicle. Next time I would look at the Colorado, and I hate any GM product and have told my wife to shoot me if I ever even considered a GM product. Please Toyota, help save my life and upgrade the Tacoma! ⁸ UPDATE: After driving the Tacoma for 9 months, I traded it in on a new Tundra and my life was back to normal.

Reading other reviews and it appears that the sluggish acceleration, constant gear hunting and rear end noise that I have are symptomatic for this vehicle. I've had the truck back at the dealership 4 times already for a reflash of the transmission firmware and the noisy rear end. The transmission still hunts all over the place when I'm on the highway and the rear end is still very noisy. I haven't experienced the leaking that others have complained about yet but I suspect it won't be long before I do. My brother bought a Colorado shortly after I bought this truck and after driving his I wish I had as well. I'd like to dump this truck now but I know I'll take a bath as I already have close to 10K miles on it. This is my second bad experience with a Toyota product and it will be my last.
