Best channel hands down!!!!!

That front spoiler on the Tacoma is the most hideous thing I've ever seen lmao

The old Tacoma with the cool factor for the win!

Let’s see all 4 Generations of the tacoma race. 4.0 baby!!!

I’m so glad this video was made, low-key everybody knows the Tacoma is a dragster and is usually used as such.

Imagine how much faster Nathan’s truck would be if he remembered to raise the front dozer blade!!!!

My neighbor has gone through 3 colorados and I’m still on the same Tacoma.

The old natural v6 doesn’t get too far behind, I would take that baby since it would last longer than the turbo!

Be interesting to see the mpg difference after removing the Taco dozer blade.

Colorado Trail Boss looks great

I really wanna see how the new hybrid Tacoma does

You guys forgot the 2nd gen. I think it's the fastest one out of all the tacomas

That 1st Gen Tacoma looks great!

I’ll keep my 23 4x4 off road. That 24 won’t outlast mine.

chillin before i have to work, appreciate the vid

We'll have to see how the iForce MAX does in this test. Would be great to see you guys get the opportunity for that when the time comes next year!

In 26 years if we ALL can be here to see that drag race promised. That would be awesome. I am sure Nathan and Andrey agree.

That was awesome! I could have watched that all day. It was nice to see what all these numbers look like in the real world between these trucks. It's really all about the seat of the pants feel and drivability than anything else. Because 1, 2, or 3 truck lengths in a all out race really amounts to nothing at the end of the day. It's just bragging rights and I much prefer reliability and longevity over that. If anyone really wants to improve their drivability in a 3rd gen Tacoma, 4 or 6 cylinder, just get a Pedal Commander. I installed one in my 22' 4 cylinder Tacoma and it made a world of difference in the enjoyment of driving the truck. It's like night and day. I have no affiliation with Pedal Commander. Just trying to be helpful. A word about the brake test. I'm sure the 10' difference between the 3rd and 4th gens was due mostly to the tires. So that was a nice point to settle. Drum brakes on the back of a pickup really don't make the stopping distance any longer when the bed is empty. I'm sure the ABS had to dial back the braking power to the discs to keep the rear wheels from locking up due to the light weight of the bed. Where the discs will shine is in their fade resistance and stopping power down long grades and especially when loaded or pulling a trailer. And another big plus is they are just a lot easier to change when they are due for replacement. It's definitely a move in the right direction. Thanks for another great test as usual. 👍

Can’t wait to see the durability 🤣

I think that the new Ranger VS the new Tacoma hybrid VS the 2.7L HO Colorado would be an interesting race

That old SC Taco would have had an even better time if the owner didn't take 2 seconds to get it into 3rd gear. His launch and shift into 2nd was spot on. (Assuming the run they recorded was the time they showed). Very quick little truck!

I'll be honest with ya... I got more faith in that OG lasting another 26years then the new motor...

I love that immediately he says " wow that's a slow shift" lol. I really hope the new tacoma shifts a lot better than that dinosaur.

I would take that older Toyota sr5 with the manual over any of that stuff out there today.

Andre showing up without cruise control.

That old Tacoma puts them to a shame. Old technology rules!

GREAT video guys made me smile a whole bunch 😅😊🎉

Best Tacoma in this video is the super charged 90s truck.

Colorado at 16.13. New taco 16.90. Old taco 17.53. In a previous video, Ranger and Nissan frontier we’re making times of ranger 16.38. Pro4x 17.62. 😊

Great video, guys.

Great video as always gents!

The Colorado really ran laps around the Tacoma at 10k less 😂

700k miles wow. Thats amazing.

Love my 2019 Tacoma TRD Sport (with a tune which really wakes it up), but sometimes I think Toyota is living on past rep in the quality thing. I've owned 2 Toyota pickups (1 bought new) with the legendary 22R, and four Tacoma's starting with a 2004. Every Tacoma I have owned the quality has dropped a tad and you can feel it. My 2004 was by far my favorite and as long as you kept the rust at bay (especially frame) it was so solid. With my current truck, Toyota messed something up with the roof sound deadening and it sounds like a cat on a tin roof in the rain. Dealer wanted to strip out the headliner to fix and I said "forget it, you will mess it up worse".

Great video and merry Christmas all! Hope Toyota used better steel on new tacoma frames

The old Taco with the new Magnuson Supercharger is just too cool. Magnusons' newest superchargers are really impressive. Awesome little rig.

The engine bay of that colorado is well organize compare to the tacoma ... even ford Ranger looks like a teenager bedroom

That extra .5 seconds has me really wanting to spend 50k to upgrade from my 3rd gen . Wow

Pickup truck drag race cool… *returns after making a fresh cup of coffee* …oh wow, just in time to see the results!

Andre is just so proud of His Colorado.

Short and sweet video 👌

Love the old Tacoma. I got a 1st gen 2001 Tacoma. Love it

1997 wins in 4x4 drive at the end with the best numbers with the new magnuson tvs1320 supercharger , 1997 Tacoma @ 15.41, The Colorado 2024 @ 16.13, The 2024 Tacoma @ 16.90, The 2022 Tacoma @ 17.53

Exciting race!

So we learned a built older truck is better than a over priced new one.

Great video. Where did John do his SC work on that Taco? I have a 2013 Tundra RW that would be a blast to do that with.

Man I waited for an updated power train for the 4 runner for a long time. This new engine is not what I was hoping for. I expected more out of Toyota considering how long it took for an update

That super charger made the winder noise

Great testing just what I use my truck for

Ok, that was fun watching the 97 toyota! sweet ride!

I owned a 2017 Tacoma TRD Off Road and got rid of it because I hated the 3.5 engine and auto transmission combo. It was very under powered and even after having it reprogrammed by Toyota several times the transmission never seemed to be in the right gear. The combo also produced terrible gas milage. I am really looking forward to seeing what the turbo hybrid brings to the table.

You guys should've included the 4L taco!

I'd still rather have NA engine. Let's see that turbo motor get to 765k miles.

Amazing how much faster Andres Colorado was than the new Tacoma.

Two turtles racing to start the video was fire

Gosh, Have I been waiting for a Video Like this! All the Generations of Tacomas Tested, along with a Competitor! I'm not expecting the 3.5L NA V6 to win, but this whole video comes to show how the Tacoma Got it's Reputation of Reliability, and is hoping to carry that into the Next Generation and Thensome! Appreciate the Content as always, TFL! Keep Up the Good Work! Greetings from Braves Country!

I love how the modded 1st gen came in and creamed everything else in the quarter mile lol, John's truck is one spicy Taco.

4WD is not cheating if you have it. When stoplight racing in light snow it is a must.

Shame you guys didn't have a supercharged second gen.

3:34 weigh the same??... Merry Christmas Nathan.😂

Waiting to see the 405hp Ranger Raptor vs these pickups. Great video as always.

Next they should do a H2H race towing matching trailers.

Bring a 4.0 Taco next time 💪🏽

Andrzej. Did you guys made a video when you did the high output tune? Also did the tune affect your mpg’s? Thanks

This was a good idea

Have the new Tundra and love it. That said, it does not fit in my garage and really thinking about making the switch. Hard to do it though with the torque and huge interior space. We will see. Great video! Keep it up.

Great video!!👍 There is no question that I would choose the new Turbo 4 cyl over the current 3.5 V6. I had a 3.5 V6 for about 3 yrs and it was a disappointment the whole time I had it.

Way to go Andre! Chevy Colorado for the win!

You should used the lightest trims with the most powerful engines. Also you should have brought a comparable D41 Frontier

I’ll stick with my 4.0 taco, this new one is great for hauling lattes from your favorite Starbucks

U could use a rumble filter on the audio. Decent content tho😊

Quote of the video “hey, come on, what do you expect?”

That first gen is SICK

Fuel Efficiency Loop, please. And, please bring along Andre's Colorado to compare it too... 😊😊😊

Did you guys race using electronic shifting or just ECT and traction control off?

good race.

Can’t wait to see if they come out with the xrunner they showed off at sema hopefully it gets push in production

I have similar Michelin tires on my frontier, and they seem to be oriented to low rolling resistance than traction.

Let’s see the 4.0 2nd Gen

Okay, as much as I like the channel but everything you did, rolling race and brake test and everything, it feels like a carwow thing.

I drag race every truck before I buy it, because how fast it accelerates is how you know it’s the best.

I have 3rd gen with 4.88 gears/OV tune. I wonder how it would compete?

Love it but I'll stick with my 19. She's all dialed in.

Really the only thing that makes me want to get rid of my 3rd Gen Taco is the terrible gearing where the Trans just can't decide what gear it wants to be in on the interstate even with just the slightest incline. Otherwise I really love the thing.

I like the older v6 look. For few small difference the older one is better.

I drive a 2000 manual supercharged 4Runner for a reason. It was the last year Toyota made a manual 4Runner, and they haven't been as powerful nor as fun as the 24 year-old one. Happy to see manual and forced induction making a return in the Tacoma.

Now do it against a super charged V6 in the 3rd gen.

The want to sell the new 24 Tacoma, I am still buying the v6 next week

I like how they purposely drove the 1st gen badly so the new Tacoma shines.

I want to see you guys do some work based comparisons. Load an air compressor, some sheets of wood, some 2X4s, some pipes, some nail/screw boxes, some buckets of stuff, and hitch up a small trailer. Then drive 40 miles through traffic and go up a grade then down a grade. Which brakes are the smoothest? Which brakes seemed to overheat. How easy was it to tie down a load of stuff? Which vehicle has the least amount of plastic parts? Did the bed get all scratched up? I am especially curious how well the aluminum clad tail gate holds up to abuse. How easy was it to load and unload the stuff? Which has the shortest turn radius? Which is more comfortable to drive when loaded? Which stops the fastest when loaded? How much can be carried? I am not sure how valuable it is to see which is the fastest in the 1/4 mile for a mid sized pickup truck but it's a hell of a lot of fun to watch it!

I own a 3rd gen 🌮, but would love to see the new Frontier race, that seems like a pretty slick truck.

Now you have to do the Trail Boss against the i-FORCE engine in the tacoma. The electric motor helps quite a lot.

I think 25 years in the future has already long come for Toyota. We've owned an '76 fj40, '95 2nd gen 4runner, '99 SC 3.4 4runner, '05 4.0 4runner, 2nd Gen trd Taco, '07 4.7 gx470. All super cool and super reliable off road vehicles. However it's hard for me to argue for them when my Rivian gets 75mpge and 11sec quarter mile. I think theres no need to wait another 25 years, Toyota.

People complaining about this video, its just for fun and its not a scientific test. Enjoy it for what it is.

C’mon, my sisters razor scooter could beat the old v6 Tacoma

We've had Toyota trucks in our family since 1989. The conversation is about reliability not necessarily speed and only time will tell if the turbo motor or components will stand the test of time.

I ask this every time you do a brake test. Why don’t you use the solo to test the braking distances? Zero human error for response times or measuring errors.

I'll take the old Tacoma from the 90s any day of the week. They need to make small cheap trucks like that again! Don't need all the bells and whistles.

Being an owner of a Tacoma and a 4Runner, I have to ask myself, why am I watching videos based around their speed? Kinda feel like I need to go watch a corvettes ability to rock climb next :)

7:24 Not mention No Cruise Control also 😂😂😂
