Depends on where you buy he got ripped off a bit… should buy from Beaver Toyota in Saint Augustine FL… all weather floor mats have come with all my trucks and other nice things plus $10,000 off in 2019 🤙 Trump won 2020

@jamesstephen5694 5 ай бұрын

When I bought my 2017 Tacoma TRD Sport 4X4, before I signed on the dotted line I asked to through in all weather floor mats, tint my windows and install the rain guards for the windows, they did at no charge and I did the same thing when I traded that truck in for my 2020 TRD Off Road Premium 4runner. I ask for stuff before I sign on the dotted line, they wanna deal, so do I. I have always done this when I buy a vehicle.

My wife drives a 17 Tacoma and it's not as comfortable as my Ranger. They are both good but I do agree Toyota is more reliable, even though I have had zero issues with mine. It's crazy to see how acceptable everyone here is with the price! I get it, it is what it is. Good luck with your build.

Just because the idiots at TFL broke it, it does not mean that the new Tacoma comes with a bad transfer case. I believe the 3rd gen transfer case was made by Aisin, and I have no idea if they completely redesigned the transfer case for the 4rd gen Tacoma, but assuming it is still a part-time 4x4, I do not believe it is much different than the previous gen. i might be wrong, but TFL folks bought a brand new truck, drove it more than a 1,000 miles on the highway. They also towed a trailer with it, and then they off-roaded it in the desert, and towed again. They basically did everything that is NOT recommended while you brake in your new truck. If I were Toyota, I would not honor the warranty and let them pay for their stupidity.

One of my pet peeves when buying a truck is no black fender flares, only color keyed ones. Black plastic is hard to keep from fading and doesn't look as good in my opinion. It probably doesn't matter as it's impossible to find any '24 Taco with manual and a 6 foot bed. Underground does look good in direct sunlight. The dealer pics just don't do it justice. I feel like there will be some good after market upgrades coming to this truck.

8.7% interest is one of the biggest reasons I haven't bought a new (or "new to me") vehicle in the last year+

When this truck was introduced I was like no f’n way !!! Well…… there a Silver one in my garage. I went on an hour long test drive and absolutely loved it. I also have the off road premium trim. I did not want the sway bar disconnect.

Solar octane looks a lot better on this truck in my opinion. Wanted to get a sr5 but seems like a Colorado trail boss or a canyon elevation is a better deal at the moment, even a pro4x

@Richard-xv7yf when was it lifted and who cares . We don't even know why they are being held. I doubt it's cracked engine blocks 🤣🤣

So what are your thoughts on all the issues with the front differentials?

Only heard of one issue

The Premium & Technology package on my 2016 OR was $2,400 and included everything but JBL Stereo. It would be interesting to do a comparison of cost, on identically equipped Tacoma's in different Toyota sales regions.

Think they QC check has to do w/ the front Diff. TFL was testing one offroad and the front Diff exploded due to an internal failure on a part designed to fail but should not have under what they were doing.

With the prices being so high, I’m looking forward to seeing reviews of the Land Cruisers. If the Land Cruiser is way higher in quality, will probably lean towards that over the Taco. If I’m shelling out a crap ton of money I may as well go for the higher quality option.

I like that Toyota left the DRL/turn light as incandescent. That’s the one that’s most likely to burn out, so it’s nice that’s it’s not a built in bulb in an expensive module.

Very true as well

But LED's rarely burn out. LED's are better in every way. I've had my truck for 9 years and still haven't replaced a single LED bulb.

@jmpattillo 5 ай бұрын

@@XploreAz you can replace the incandescents with leds if desired. The main thing is that the light most likely to need replacing is its own module, and not built into a very expensive module like the headlights.
