I’m 6’4” and “husky”. I just finished a cross country trip, 2900 miles in my new 2021 Tacoma TRD Offroad double cab. I fit fine in the truck with the power seat and no sunroof. I have 2.5” of room over my head.

I'm also 6'2" (with a 32" inseam), and am wondering if you have enough headroom to do the 1.25" riser blocks that supposedly really help in the leg comfort aspect. I've always loved Tacos, but found the seating position rather uncomfortable because the seat seems too close to the floor. I don't think I'd get the sunroof because of headroom.

I think weight and flexibility also plays in all this. Once in it’s another set of comforts to consider.

Owned one for over 2 years. Your review is basically spot on. My two biggest issues were seating position and simply terrible transmission programming. Driving on the highway was horrible unless the road was perfectly straight. Toyota needs a new engine/transmission in this thing asap.

Great Video!! I’m 6-3 and I just purchased a SR5 Toyota Tacoma double cab in VooDoo blue. Being tall and owning a Tacoma has it challenges. If you’re tall don’t get the MOONROOF because you loose so many inches of headroom. There is a big difference when there is no moonroof and there is good amount of headroom. Personally I’ve been happy with my Tacoma and the power seat helped me get comfortable with my long legs. I will say if you’re tall and you want to haul people, get a full size truck.

TheDriveGuyde Yeah, I sat in a Tacoma with a moonroof and it was very uncomfortable. When I saw your head basically touch the headliner, I felt your frustration. Good point about the back window as well, but with the added headroom it helps positioning the seat. Also my steering wheel is telescopic and I’m able to pull towards me, it could go further in my opinion. Good review man, it’s refreshing to see a tall guys perspective on comfort in a vehicle.

If you’re that tall and don’t have any problems then you are probably better proportioned than me. I’m 6’1” but a bit short on the legs and extra tall on the body. This means when sitting in my own 2011 Tacoma I’m looking through the very top of the windshield and the rear view mirror is in the way. I’ve been living with this annoyance for 9 years.

@@carsonabrosimoff6162 As another long torso tall person (6'4) I have been struggling with this for some time. Every sedan and crossover must have a low slopping roofline it seems and I rarely find a new vehicle I can get into without hitting my head. The also apparently must have large center consoles that intrude on your knee/leg/and hip room. I miss bench seats. Would be nice if a least one manufacturer would make a dedicated Big and Tall model.

You would think that one executive at Toyota would latch onto the idea that if we increase the rear passenger seating by 5" of leg room that they could sell thousands more units to a customer base that wants a Tacoma but won't do it because of the rear seat issue.

I'm 6'4" 220lbs and I have found it weird the vehicles that I have and haven't fit in over the years. Some of the strange ones are... Fit in: single cab s10 (wasn't bad once I was in), 1983 rx7 (comfortably), nd miata(just barely, would not daily drive it), 2019 Mazda cx3 (the seat bolsters were a little narrow but it worked) Did not fit in: 2016 tacoma ext or double cab (not comfortably), 07 scion tc(steering wheel hit my knees trying to work the gas and brakes), 98 Chevy cavalier(head bounced off the sunroof trim), 94 3000gt(literally couldn't even work the clutch), 2018 chevy equinox (the side bolsters of the seat dug into my lats), 2016 camaro (seat didn't go back far enough to get my knees off the steering wheel)

6'2", proportional torso/legs 34" inseam and look out the top of the windshield of my 2017 OR. Legs/heels go numb from no thigh support and back pain after 20 minutes. Love the MT and footprint but seating is abysmal. I call it my 4x4 sportcar with ground clearance but no head clearance. Trying different seat configurations ie. shims under seat (see TW for coverage).

6’4” as well and getting a 2021 Tacoma TRD Off-Road without the moonroof, which means I also can’t get heated seats from Toyota USA, which is a ridiculous penalty for being tall. I live in Washington Stare near the Canadian border and it gets quite cold. It will be my first car since the 1980s to not have heated seats. Regardless, I love everything else about the Tacoma and actually think the cloth seats look great so I’m willing to give it a try. I tried a Tundra but they’re just way too much truck for my needs.

I'm 5,11 and no problems. Even the sr with v6 and 4x4 is enough. Crawl control is pretty much a gimmick and the rear locker while nice to have is not really necessary unless you plan on heavily modifying the truck and or do some crazy off roading and at the point it's best to just get air lockers or a jeep lol. The sr will save you like 6k over the off road and at this point the 6k can get you better tires and a nice lift so it will actually be way better off road than the off road model.

Title is a bit misleading, and so is the review to be honest. He only looks like 6'3 or 6'4 at most. I'm 6'2 with 34" inseam, and I've never had a problem with seating position. Everything adjusts well, and I actually have more room than I thought I would before buying.
