I've only put 1,000 miles on this truck, but so far its been great. You may get a more comfortable car like ride with a Canyon or Colorado but these two trucks lack the truck feel that I wanted. The TRD Off-road is awesome looking and is a real head turner. We took my wife's Mazda in for service and the whole service department was staring out the window at it in awe. I feel like I can tackle any terrain in this truck and the double cab with a 6 foot bed it actually looks like a practical balanced vehicle compared to the 5 ft bed. The only read complaint I have is the transmission. It does seem to lean towards low rpm which can make it feel sluggish at times but the manual mode and the ECT power button overcome this issue.

It does exactly what I purchase it for, and then some. Very comfortable, very dependable, powerful, easy to drive in all weather conditions and stylish. Consistent 21-24 mpg except for winter (winter tires, 19-21). Fun to drive! Updated after 5 years of ownership! I could not ask for anything better, dependable or enjoyable.

Looking for a reliable 4 cylinder truck? You can’t beat a Tacoma. Drives smoothly and don’t expect to much horse power. This is a truck that will save you $$ in the long term as long as you keep up with the basic maintenance. I have friends you have older models and they have 200+ miles.

2017 Tacoma does not want to go into high gear on the hwy when doing 60 to 80 mph. I just took a 260 mile trip and 90 % of the time it ran at 3500 rpms and my hwy gas mileage was 15.2 mpg. I took it to the dealer before this trip. They hooked it up to the computer and took it for a short drive and it did not do it at that time so they did nothing. Now I have to waste more time to take it back and have them check it again. This time I have a video.

I wish this truck had power seats or that the steering wheel pulled out 2 or 3 inches more and that it had a better ride.
