Great Pickup

This truck is by far the best truck that I have ever owned. It handles supremely well for a truck, and it is the most reliable vehicle my family owns. The only problem that I have with the truck is that the extended cab jump seats aren't very large, and as someone else mentioned, would be very cramped for just about any adult. The only thing that I wished that I would have done was gotten the TRD off-road package, but I spend a lot of time off-road with mine, so that is all personal preference.

most reliable truck i've ever owned!

This vehicle drives as nice as any on the market, It's got a good turning radius, Plenty of power, It is quiet on the road, but still feels like a truck. The towing capacity is great, And the 4x4 is one of the best I have ever seen! I have been on the trail with jeeps and land rovers and have never been shown up! All though I have passed a couple broken land rovers on the way:) This truck is very comfortable on long trips, Has plenty of room for 2 people and all the luggage and gear. The jump seats in the back are small, a grown adult will not want to be back there for any extended period of time, But it is ok for kids. This truck will get you to the deepest parts of the woods and then get you to work the next day! Toyota really does it right.

Awesome Truck

Bought this Tacoma new with 4WD, V6 and a Double cab. Rides rather well empty and really well loaded with family or loaded bed. Started using synthetic oil and really increased my fuel economy by over 20%. It has never left me stuck in any kind of bad weather. Linex'd the bed and added an Undercover bed cover which is also wonderful. Toyota could have designed the interior alittle better. Not as impressed with the newer model design so plan on keeping this one for 200K+ miles.

Handy Truck

This truck drives like a champ. It has great handling and is very quiet, at one point I thought the truck was stalled or shut off, but it was just the engine cranking very calm and smooth. It has all the features I would expect from a truck plus more. The fact that it comes with a Leer hard cover with the truck makes it a great bargain. The interior is very roomy as well, it is a good vehicle to take my family in, especially on a fishing or camping trip. The only thing I could possibly say that I did not like would have to be the color of the interior. I am not a big fan of tan, but it would not keep me from purchasing a truck of this value. Overall I think this truck is worth more than the asking price.
