Nice all around medium size truck

Great for what I bought it for (daily commuter ) Been using as a daily commuter and vacation vehicle. It has preformed very well work this truck harder then I intended too. I am 6 ft tall and so is my wife and long rides it’s a little cramped but it rides so well with and without heavy loads that I can’t complain.

Tacoma first Toyota

Vehicles is good after a week of owning it, fuel consumption if not that great, engine performance is not good, this vehicle would be used to tow small trailer and seem this would be a hazard on the road since it lacks horse power and torque. Vehicle can barely move on its own power and in order to pass vehicle the gas pedal need to be floored and it takes a while to get some speed. This vehicle would be good in city, commute and to move small stuff. I would not recommend for long drives as seat lack support.

Kevin made us feel very comfortable

This truck is like new inside and out. It is the perfect truck for our needs. There is nothing about it that I would change.

Excellent "like new" Tacoma Pickup Truck

The Tacoma satisfied most of my needs, and is like new. I will have an aftermarket cruise control installed, install a trailer hitch, mud flaps and window rain guards myself.

The truck I always wanted!!

It’s everything I want, all that I need. I’m very happy with my 2017 Toyota SR5. We’re now a Toyota family, we also have a 2016 Forunner

Best vehicle I've ever owned

My Tacoma Sport double cab has been the best car or truck I've ever owned. It's comfortable, powerful, reliable, roomy, and versatile. I bought it new and have absolutely no regrets.

Thank God Just Sold It!

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 ****.
