POOR CHOICE ON SELECTING A VEHICLE, FOOL ME ONCE..

This truck has no power and can't seem to find the correct gear. It bogs down so much that I use the manual select lever to change gears. It's been to the dealer twice who tells me that this is "normal" operation. The electronic control module went bad at 200 miles. The drivers seat is uncomfortable and hard to get in and out of. The 4 wheel drive doesn't work correctly but no need to have it checked at the dealer as I'm sure it's "normal". The 3.5 engine is a POS, they should have stuck with the 4.0, much better engine. I want to test drive the next vehicle I get for at least a weekend, not just a trip around the block. The problem is there are no such thing as a mechanic anymore. You have part changers at the dealership who only know what the computer tells them and can't diagnose a real problem. Glad I leased this pile so I can give it back in 36 months.

Tacoma TRD Sport

I bought this Blazing Blue Pearl Tacoma used. It was 3 years old and had 15.300 miles and just came off lease. The vehicle was immaculate and came with the Toyota Certified Used Vehicle warranty. The vehicle has performed flawlessly. I have changed the oil once, replaced the wiper inserts and had the tires rotated and balanced. The mechanic at the store that rotated the tires asked me why I had brought the truck in, I told him because Toyota said so (recommended service interval). He said the wheels were carrying the original weights and didn't need balancing after the rotation. I've owned the vehicle 10 months and have no reason to take it to Toyota and have a repair done under the free bumper-to-bumper warranty. This is a fun to drive head-turner that is inexpensive to operate and worry free. Extremely happy.

We had a 2017 Off Road 4x4 we luckily just sold it. Boy did I want to like it but no way. The transmission on this truck is the worst- see all other reviews. Just got a letter from Toyota that the frames on these may rust out & need to be replaced... uh didn’t Toyota already have this problem several years ago & now it’s happening again?!? Yes mine was already showing rust. The drivers seat sits so far down it makes one feel like a midget. Not to mention the truck’s payload is squat (check it on the truck before you buy it!!) couldn’t even put a small topper on it without maxing it out. And good luck towing anything with the crappy transmission. Worst of all is the Boise dealership- any complaints & you’ll be met with that it is normal, nothing is wrong. That was the reply for everything even when I complained about the rust - then 3 months later I got the letter from Toyota about it. The lame Boise dealership will also totally lowball you if you try to sell it back to them. Was able to sell it for over $5000 more than their offer. Used to own a 1987 Toyota truck & would pay anything to get another truck like that. These Tacoma’s are way overpriced pieces of ****.

Got the manual (which involved an 8-month delay in delivery). Highly recommend it. 99% satisfied (I wish leather was an option at this trim level, this marketing plan leaves me totally in the dark).

Very easy buying experience at Boch Toyota in Norwood MA. Big strong truck with every option available and rides like a sedan. I am extremely pleased with my new Tacoma!
