you probably dont care but if you guys are stoned like me during the covid times you can stream pretty much all the new movies and series on InstaFlixxer. Have been watching with my brother lately =)

[@devonbriar4627]

@Gage Preston yup, I've been watching on instaflixxer for months myself :D

[@bradgt5130]

First and only video of a base model truck. Keep that going please

[@RobertoGonzalez-hw1nz]

Honestly I just got one, my first time owning a new truck. I had a 92 Toyota pickup , drove like a beast!! Loved that little truck, decided i wanted a new truck for work. Love this Tacoma! I drive all day and I can tell you it's comfortable! For just one of the basic models it runs pretty good. I go up hills a lot , pretty steep ones and the 4cly handles well. Of course those v8 broncos gonna climb those hills easy (because there meant for that). This truck does it just as well, hit that little button ECT button and you'll feel it kick up. If you don't like the bumper then go buy a new one and get it painted, this bumper is textered. If your looking for a flashy truck and your disappointed with the inside get the TRD then lol. This is a utility truck mostly, back and fourth. You won't be disappointed with this purchase. We work for what we want right! Enjoy!

[@JamesLee-mb4sw]

I bought this model on Monday!! Its so cool!!! Its my first truck in my life and l like how its 4 cylinder but has good power!

[@goldleader2804]

Bought an SR yesterday except it had back seats, painted bumpers, all weather floor mats etc. this video shows the absolute bare bones. Almost got one but I'm glad they found the one I ended up with.

[@wewd]

The one without the back seats and black bumper is called the Utility Package and actually reduces the base price of the truck by $1700 or so.

[@rockbay79]

Bought a 2019 Brand New one last Saturday. They have added some more features since this model like lane assist, blue tooth, etc...… I love the 4X4 and the 2.7 4-cylinder engine, plus 2-year Free Maintenance! Paid cash in full, good deal! Highly recommend!

[@SR-cp1eo]

I did NOT know that was on this whole time. very quiet engine.

[@MikesCarInfo]

Thanks for watching and your feedback :)

[@808JEANNIE]

Sean R yes it's very quiet, no hum like the 2nd Gen, it's very quiet

[@DriveAndBeDriven]

Nice quick look, Mike! This vehicle is ideal for people who want a fairly reliable, easy to repair and pretty spacious work truck! Keep up the great work! -DriveAndBeDriven "The Quest To Record The Best!"

[@daveybernard1056]

The 2.7L Tacoma is a nice choice for people who like and want a 4cyl truck.

[@Brandon-eh4tz]

This'll take you to a million miles.

[@magnificentbastard2311]

I bought a 2016 SR , great truck , no frills , nothing I don't need or want and a fine looking truck in my opinion . I am old school , trucks are trucks , not luxury cars . And the reality is that those that buy the loaded versions with all the bells and whistles will never see half the off road use mine does . You want a nice 4cyl truck , but one , you'll be more than happy

[@SS-sh6ww]

Pure basics ! Luv it.

[@oregonadventures8048]

It would be sweet to have a regular cab long bed again .

[@redzmvt]

One could wish,and make a 7' box available.

[@randyr6610]

I had the basic 2005 regular cab, I upgraded to a 2017 SR5 4x4 v6 I love my truck, Toyota did a great job update the tacoma.

[@adanlopez5251]

I generally don't like pickup trucks, because there loud v8, to big and stupid. but this little 4 cylinder pickup truck is pretty cool.

[@EpicXXProductions]

Most trucks are 6 cyl stupid.

[@ravenjames3873]

there not loud, if you wanna talk about loud just listen to any CVT with the droaning noise, now that's loud. you sound dumb.

[@armandoramirez875]

this truck is sweet just saying

[@TRUE_GR1T]

the older version still had back seats. I wonder why they aren't putting them in any more. They were on top of the storage compartments and could be folded flat to make a large flat area. Pretty good system.

[@MrBlurberries]

They still do, its actually the standard option. This truck has the utility package which removes the rear seats, cruise control, adds black bumpers etc.

[@Rico24337]

Tripnotyst Yeah, this trim is oriented more towards construction companies and business etc. Hence the cheaper options and basic lookm

[@ravenjames3873]

ya but it wasn't really that big, and most people used it as a work truck. it's not a big deal.

[@curiouspilot]

@@MrBlurberries The utility package does not include cruise control afaik.

[@MrBlurberries]

Sid that’s what I said

[@randyr6610]

I got a 2017 SR5 4x4 v6 love this truck these are the best truck that Toyota made. I know this is the 3rd one I owned.

[@MikesCarInfo]

Thanks for watching and your feedback :)

[@kylerichardson4616]

I have this exact truck and my favorite part is that is has 9 cup holders for all 2 seats

[@l6j8b32]

It's a great truck and a great deal. I now have 13,000+ miles on a 2016 with the dark gray paint, same truck otherwise, and it's actually great on gas. I break my trucks in the right way, no need to drag race the first 5000 miles anyway. To have a truck that stands tall and stronger than expected, and still get over 30 mpg on the highway, it's the best deal you will find unless someone can break in the Chevy Colorado and hit the 33 mark. You have to drive like you can't find the accelerator when taking off, but keeping the rpm's around 2000 or less is the key. The six speed transmission will help you do just that, I wish I knew if the v6 could be broke in for a high mpg rating. Toyota don't tell everyone the secret for the high numbers but they told me in 1993 when I bought my first new two wheel drive Toyota truck, and now I can't get away from them. Before Toyota I drove cars and trucks hard, and was quick to complain if they broke, but now I have much appreciation for car manufacturers. They can't make armored trucks out of plastic, and we can't afford much more than plastic, not in my neighborhood anyway. Didn't want this to sound preachy but if someone wants to know if Tacoma's are really worth it, I say yes and they're getting better every year.

[@deanreynolds7825]

I have never gotten the 27 mpg highway on my 2007 Tacoma with the 2.7 and 4 speed auto....Real world is 23 to 25.

[@mathushansivakumaran7857]

Hi MikesCarInfo I'm looking to buy a vehicle and after watching this, you make me want to buy it. Thanks

[@MikesCarInfo]

Thanks for watching :)

[@rogermc1967]

I have this truck in the 2018 model. I love it!! I don't need a lot of towing power so the 4 cylinder is just fine for going to work and putting around deer camp.

[@daves2520]

This is definitely a man's truck, no frills.

[@randyr6610]

Very good work truck I had the standard tacomas for years with no problems there just very reliable. This time I got the 2017 SR5 4x4 v6 hope its a good truck to.

[@BoredwatchinYT]

oh cool your doing a review of the Toyota Tacoma

[@fernandoalvarado3538]

Best truck ever

[@throughmyeyesonly]

I like how much room is in the engine bay. Easier to work on if needed.

[@mitchellrohrback]

Really like this video, and really like the tacoma. Would love to see a 2019 or 2020 Tacoma sr in the future!

[@staffordvideoproductions5788]

Nice review. You glossed over one of the most important parts for us in the Pacific Northwest. The wipers. No intermittent wipers?

[@SentinelEx]

Really thinking about getting this model as my first truck. So far I'm really liking it. Great video.

[@HarpreetGill-fx2tb]

2017 Toyota Tacoma SR5. It's good pickup. It need rear seat add on with safty seat belt rear. Also, Chrome front bumper with fog light and seprate switch on dashboard. Rear Chrome bumper is important for this pickup. This will make pickup looks good in market and highway. This can be a beauty and work pickup truck for men. Thank You Gill 07-13-2017

[@Shockyxo]

beast truck

[@cumminsdiesel5379]

That's a nice little truck

[@bengonzales1182]

The Hankook tires are good, they put them on my 2nd gen last time I took it in for service and right away I felt a big difference. Better than the Dunlop's they used to put on.

[@CoelhoSports]

it's called the "utility package". that should probably be in title since it's the one you're reviewing. this one also doesn't have the access door speakers the base and up have (only 4 speaker system instead of standard 6)

[@francesco1998]

I love everything about it holy Jesus.

[@mhoskins50ify]

Why doesn't this model come with the fold down back seats? Can you have them installed aftermarket?

[@TROllingNINJA2031]

this is the model that will last you 400k+ miles easily if you take care of it

[@ravenjames3873]

they all can last you if you take care of it.

[@toyotabrony]

Ninja Man I agree with u man. As long as u take care of while this is the most reliable 4 cylinder truck it’s all good. 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼. FYI, upgrade cat back exhaust with CAI system gives a nice and similar sound like Subaru Impreza boxer-4, believe there’s videos of 4 cylinder Tacoma that sound just like subie. Look it up.😉

[@damonegipson338]

True that

[@jimmycline4778]

I just bought this same truck , it’s a new 2022 It cost 26,680! I’ve seen used 2019 with 45,000 miles selling for 28k But only 2k more five years later on this 2017!

[@howardkerr8174]

Since no one else has done a video on the base 4 cylinder Tacoma I was hoping for a driving impression...oh well.

[@f-22raptor25]

Great review!

[@adolfomaldonado8373]

No cruise control is my only problem with it

[@rockyj5047]

Wtf?! I was honestly leaning towards buying this tomorrow until I found that out. I'm not very picky but man, I just gotta have cruise control.

[@calcrappie8507]

Think you need the V6 in the SR level to get cruise control. My 2021 V6 4X4 SR has it standard.

[@450o054]

i want this very truck all black so it matches the front bumper with manuals.

[@df8600]

i really enjoy your videos.

[@josemanuel5749]

Good video mike? Can you make a video of the nissan altima!

MikesCarInfo hi there I looking for rear seats and belts for my Toyota Tacoma 2017 are your have idea how much cost me ??? Thanks

[@buttonman1831]

I don't think the manual option is available in the 4 cylinder

[@thomastommy1192]

Awesome great video thanks for sharing. Are you suppose to replace the gasket around the housing??

[@Nonameisnt]

Did engine and transmission buid in san antonio tx ?

[@genius-no5sl]

Nice truck

[@BurtBowers]

That plastic bumper is an absolute eye sore though I guess you could paint it white to match the rest of vehicle.

[@ghilliemanreviews]

Old Timer you can get an Sr that looks like a sr5. It’s the Sr convenience package

[@exionem]

No manual transmission.... come one... bring those back Toyota.

[@jiggs509]

exionem why would they do that

[@tthetopofmygame]

I have this truck in a manual its asilver 2017

[@Christstand4]

Why no cruise control...? 1. Needed for gas mileage...2. Just why don't they put it in?

[@Cutlerypotato]

If you find a good size rock that can be a good substitute

[@chloesamclutch]

To keep the price point low. Actually on the older ones it's prewired, like the intermittent wipers and fog lights. Add switch and relay and you're set. However if I were to buy new I'd get it factory equipped.

[@abe6495]

Nice! I wonder if the 2018 similar is the same.

[@ghilliemanreviews]

My next truck. Which engine should I buy? Gonna keep forever and want 4x4 and double cab

[@Ben-bg2eg]

McSlama Jama Ask yourself this. Do you really want to drive a 4 cylinder tacoma with 150 horsepower forever?

[@chloesamclutch]

I would get the v6 if mpg isn't a major issue, expect 19-21 mpg. I bought my first Toyota Tacoma a couple of years ago and when I upgrade I'm getting another. Needs have changed and I need a good 4x4 that will cruise down the highway vs. my base model with manual transmission and low gearing.

[@wx4newengland]

I am honestly surprised it carpet and cloth seats.

[@Cleevus]

Great looking truck. I must have missed this but how long is the box? also can you put a cap on the box? thanks very much

[@vig5100]

6' and yes

[@greenfire919]

No Intermittent wipers?? I understand its a base truck, but that is hurtin.

[@daveming3195]

How tall is the truck overall and is it measured from the ground up or the step plate up

[@tonifulton7106]

Hi I am thinking of getting a small camper to travel the north west. I have a Tacoma 2.7 SR. I am getting conflicting information. Can you please tell me what you know. Thank you

[@forgedabouted]

How much is the base tacoma with a manual transmission?

[@gphiss]

Just bought one for $25, 500. Pretty standard, no cruise control, intermittent wipers...not even any floor mats. But now I'm having fun shopping for aftermarket stuff. Just received my Husky floor liners today and looking for a tonneau cover next. Took it offroading tonight and it climbed a pretty aggressive hill with no problems!

[@joshuawallace7993]

gphiss was it manual you bought???

[@pryme2013]

No manual with 4cyl anymore in the Taco. That sucks

[@slowlydistancing]

Wait wait wait SR is a Nissan trim level I understand that there's an base SR5 trim level but I never knew there was a SR trim level

[@mikegrigoriadis9484]

do you know where I can get the jump seats for the 2017 sr model that I just bought if I want to get them later?

[@danmiller2940]

I have this model and need mud flaps, as I live down a gravel road. All the ones I see on Amazon say does not fit SR. Who makes some decent flaps for this basic Tacoma?

[@calcrappie8507]

I have a 2021 Tacoma SR V6 4X4. Same issue. Need to buy the rubber wheel well liners then you can add the OEM flaps.

[@michaelswiger4006]

are these new models available in a 2 door

[@MikesCarInfo]

no

[@TheServantOfAllah99]

get the V6 the four doesnt have enough power

[@808JEANNIE]

Mikel Hossyin yes no zip like v6, but dealer told me to just push ect button, lol

[@SmaxyMiguel]

Toyota made both engines to have the same horsepower and fuel consumprion...so no big difference. 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

[@JesusChristIsLord__]

Will this tow a 7000-lb trailer? The rated tow rating is 3,500 lbs so I suppose it wouldn't? I would appreciate Any insights... thanks.

[@MikesCarInfo]

I wouldn't recommend it. You need a full size truck that is set up for towing 10000 lbs or so if you are going to tow regularly.

[@JesusChristIsLord__]

Thanks for the quick reply and for the helpful info. Guess I'll be looking at a Tundra...

[@abe6495]

Does the 2019 look the same?

[@hotwheel6663]

Can you add a V6 to the base SR model?

[@Joe-eg7ml]

are rear jump seats an added cost option?

[@TopshelfJunior]

$24k /// Man, you KNOW the 2020 version won't be that.. Wonder what it would be...

[@daveming3195]

Does this come with cruise control just curious

[@808JEANNIE]

[@utubedestroysmytime]

No. Im gettin mine installed for $400 tomorrow. Same retrofit as a prius.

[@MikesCarInfo]

no

[@Doobiiie710]

MikesCarInfo do they come in 4x4 thinking about getting one but not if it doesnt come in 4x4. thanks.

[@MikesCarInfo]

Yes you can get 4x4 in this

[@judgementday9087]

It would have a 4x4 badge on the side of the tail gate if it was. I got a regular cab '03 4-speed automatic 4x4 with 267k miles. Toyota hasn't made the transition to synthetic oil yet. Tip: after about 500 miles, drain that factory break in engine oil that is 0W-20. Use full synthetic 0W-40 Castrol. Also, drain both differentials and Transfer case, and use full synthetic 75W-140 instead of 80W-90. The first generation requires 5W-30, but I've used 5W-50, 20 and 30 do not protect as MUCH. These trucks are extremely tough and built to last 300+K fairly easily. Maybe a water pump, rack and pinion, door handle, lighting could be the few problems on the way to approaching 300K miles. Toyota quality is second to none. Excellent value with these entry-level pick-ups.

Obviously because this has an option that deletes a lot of creature comforts that are standard on the base SR trim.

[@WildOutdoorLiving]

What reliability issues have they been having?

[@aidanselectrictv969]

joe blow Well joe blow. Toyotas are bad ass. It's the best Tacoma Toyota ever made to date.

[@WildOutdoorLiving]

A) That is not consumer reports that is an individuals customer's review who claims he bought the truck B) There is absolutely no information in the review whatsoever. He goes on and on about how he wished he didn't get the truck but tells us absolutely nothing about why. If there are legitimate problems I would love to know but unfortunately this review should definitely be ignored. It is kind of irrelevant anyways, the review you posted referred to the TRD Off road which only comes with a V6 and the new transmissions. This Tacoma in this video has the same 4 cylinder and 5 speed manual that has been around forever and proven to be one of the most reliable motors/transmission combos on earth.

[@mike136rr]

[@ravenjames3873]

[@michaellee5084]

over priced

[@toyotabrony]

michael lee a $25,500 basic 4 cylinder Tacoma is not overpriced, the fully loaded TRDPRO Tacoma is a bit overpriced for a $43,450 but still worth it. So the basic? Hell no it’s not over priced.

[@magnificentbastard2311]
