"The car is beautiful overall. It has good pick-up and handling. Rides smoothly over potholes and crummy roads. It has a tremendous number of little joints and valleys that need extra attention while cleaning, both inside and out. This car takes more time to wash and dry than any other I have owned. I was surprised to fin the doors do not automatically lock after the car is started. It did not come with a GPS system as I was led to believe. I do like the hands free phone application. Mileage has consistently averaged under 15mpg in the 4 weeks I have driven it. That is 60% highway and 40% street use. The most miles I have gotten out of a tank of premium fuel was 324. Then I put in 22 gallons of gas. Not what I expected from this 6 cylinder. It is a good looking car overall."

"Bought ours at dealer in Boerne,Tx. because of the great service dept. Would have put 200,000 miles on our last Toyota truck, but someone ran into it & totaled it out before we could. Plan to get 200,000 miles on this one. Have had good luck with Toyota products. Just keep serviced regulary like supposed too & they will last."

"Just bought a 2013 Tacoma Sport SR5 4x4 Double Cab. Cons: poor stereo audio, poor bluetooth ring sounds like a hollow tin can. Worst: is pitiful noise after turning off the ignition, for 1-2 seconds sounds like a starter sound and bit of suction air relief. Like a errrkkk noise. Toyota should seriously consider investigating this for a Recall. Pros: very comfortable ride, styling, handling."

"I'm a first time truck owner. I have been driving a minivan for the past 7 years (and still do). This truck was bought for use as a back up vehicle for my family of 5 and a dog AND to be used for outdoor activities the children are into (skiing, hunting, off-roading). Driving the truck is different from a minivan, but I soon found out that this is a solid vehicle in terms of not only carrying people, but also hauling and being out on rough road conditions. On the whole (with only 4 weeks of ownership) I see the potential for a very versatile vehicle that can be used for a wide variety of purposes. A good value considering it's robustness. Gas milage is not bad for a truck."

"I purchased a 2013 Tacoma Limited. I like the styling and I get a lot of complements on the limited accents. They probably could have put more bells and whistles in the truck, but it is kind of a test vehicle since they do not know how the limited model will go over. No sunroof, No power seats...I can live without. The V6 is decent power."

"The Toyota Tacoma is adequate at best. The choices are really limited in the small pick-up truck area. So you have to settle for the Tacoma."

"After lengthy research I purchased the 2013 Tacoma Double cab V-6. The ride was so smooth I had a hard time believing I was driving a truck. It also handles exceptionaly well for a truck. The seats are also very comfortable. This truck is a perfect combination for anyone who needs towing, hauling and passenger needs all in one vehicle. The only knock is the stereo system/radio. The base radio is not very good and lacks navigation or anything else for that matter. The bluetooth is nice but that is really it in regards to the stereo. The interior of the truck is a little dated but nice. If Toyota gave this truck a better radio and more features inside the cab I would give it 5 stars all the way around."
