I have 89,000 miles on my 2017 Tacoma SR.

I have 89,000 miles on my 2017 Tacoma SR. It has been a great truck except for a couple small issues and one larger issue. The big problem started 3 months ago when the AC compressor started seizing up. Took it to the Toyota dealer for service. I have been waiting on an OEM compressor for over 3 months. Unable to get one even though I had to pay $1000.00 dollars up front to the dealer before they would order it.

Best deal for the money !

My Third Tacoma. My first was a single cab which I drove a couple of years. My second I drove 14 years and I am on my fourth year in my current Tacoma. I don't intend to drive anything else unless They get so expensive, I can't afford it, or they quit making them. High mileage with low cost and no problems.

I went to Toyota service station in Carlstadt New

87,000 MI it starts leaking oil from the front pan from the drive axle in the back and the repairs cost $ $6,610.75 just unbelievable on a truck that only has $87,000 MI it's a Toyota Tacoma which is supposed to be great trucks I give it a thumbs down

Toyota Tacoma SR5

Over all This is one of the best vehicles I have ever owned. The reviews I have read about bad transmissions is not true with my experience. It’s a very reliable PU..

Roomy and Powerful (now)

We purchased a used 2017 Toyota Tacoma with a 3.5 L V6 4WD with a 6 speed manual transmission and we have not gotten stuck or hung up since. It's a DBL CAB so for a truck it's definitely roomy. I'd say our only complaint would be the hesitation when 1st starting to accelerate. We were able to buy an upgrade called a pedal command booster for around $180.00 and since installing it, there's been no issue at all... We Love Our Taco!

Love it!

My first vehicle purchase since I got my first car 16 years ago as a teenager. Needless to say I hang onto my things and make them last. I know this truck will last me many many years.

Ignition switch

Once in a while the ignition switch get"s locked and you have to turn the steering wheel back and forth with the key in the ignition in order for the key to turn. Also USB port will not charge phone. Can only be used as a data port for USB thumb drive
