Although the basic form and also principle continued to be, the Taco obtained new styling, a new engine, an updated inside and also a number of new functions, placing a modern spin on this prominent midsize pickup.


2016 Toyota Tacoma


Principally, the 2017 Toyota Tacoma keeps its precursors' positioning as the best midsize truck selection for off-roading and other tough journeys. Especially when you choose one of the three TRD trim levels, it could go places as well as do things that the Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon would blush at. The Honda Ridgeline would certainly laugh, turn around and go residence. On the other hand, it's still much less comfy, roomy and also polished compared to those trucks, meaning it's much less desirable as a daily driver.

However actually, we like this purposeful, uncompromised nature. Although the Tacoma won't be for everyone because of it, it'll likewise be completely suited for those that prefer its special capacities.

2001 Toyota Tacoma Review

Toyota's portable pick-ups are very easy to consider given. Owners appear to believe they could bring absurd loads and continue running without regular upkeep so they fill them up like semis as well as drive them until the crankcase oil resorts to taffy. Toyota dealers appear to look upon them as an annuity, routinely offering well with minimal promotion and also absolutely no initiative. And given that they haven't changed much considering that the introduction of the current generation and also its Tacoma name in 1995, there's seldom much information for journalism to obtain delighted around.

For 2001 nevertheless, there's something brand-new in Tacomaville, with updating throughout the line, and also the addition of four-door Dual Taxi and also S-Runner street efficiency designs.

Next year we'll be back ignoring the Tacoma again, no doubt.

1999 Toyota Tacoma Review

We couldn't aid however think about a scene from completion of the 1980s flick classic, Back to the Future when we were driving the 1999 Toyota Tacoma 4x4. "Marty, I completed waxing your truck - and also I put 3 layers of wax on this time around," Biff stated with a smile, as he handed Marty McFly the tricks to his four-wheel drive Toyota pickup.

Although Toyota's portable vehicle had not been really christened Tacoma till 1995, mentally the Tacoma coincides as the black truck utilized in Back to the Future. Equally as Marty's Toyota 4x4 looked like it was greater than capable off-road, our truck, outfitted with the $1,660 Toyota Competing Advancement (TRD) off-road plan, appeared to have comparable abilities.

And also with off roadway tuned suspension, black wheel arc moldings, 15-inch alloy wheels rolling on 31-inch tires and a locking rear differential, the Tacoma we tested definitely had the equipment necessary to tackle severe off-road situations.
