Toyota’s 2020 Tacoma midsize truck can almost match a full-size American pickup but costs less and fits in more garages
Shop for the 2020 Toyota Tacoma on CarGurus: cguru.us/1ktD50ygJIp
When the American automakers abandoned the midsize pickup market in the late 2000s, Toyota kept on trucking. The Tacoma remains the best-selling midsize truck in the US-it's more popular than the Chevrolet Colorado, GMC Canyon, and Nissan Frontier combined. The Tacoma’s capability, size, and dependable off-road features keep buyers satisfied. For 2020, it gets few but important design and technology updates to push this rough-and-tumble pickup into modern times.
The Tacoma's body, in either extended Access or four-door Double Cab form, is rounded enough to feel like it’s not a Jeep but still coated with enough upright lines and chiseled panels to remind viewers this is not some cushy Highlander. With most Tacoma models, you choose efficiency over embellishments. The Limited trim has 18-inch wheels, and that’s about as glitzy as it gets.
Not so with the TRD Pro I drove. For 2020, Toyota redesigned the LED headlights so they light up with “TRD” on the left, “PRO” on the right, and sequential turn signals on both sides. With the new grille-chunkier than ever, the TRD models swap the “T” circular badge for the classic “TOYOTA” printed in all caps-the Tacoma is ready to pounce. An aluminum skid plate with a red TRD logo and exposed red shocks from Fox Racing, not to mention the 16-inch black TRD wheels and all-terrain tires, announce the TRD Pro’s intent as a curb-hopper in the city and a backwoods champ on the trail.

my dad had a 1994 Toyota Camry XLE V6 until 2012, when my mom traded it in for a rav4 limited v6! my dad still drives his 1999 Toyota Camry v6 every day, its' 2020 and my mom wants to trade it in... my dad said he will trade it in when it needs a major repair, i don't think that is gonna happen anytime soon... my neighbors use to be chevy and ford guys, they now drive toyotas cause they got tired of needing repairs every few months.

Chris L resale value is still pretty good but you’re starting see it come down a bit too. It’s not stellar as it was for the 2nd gen Tacoma’s. People are starting to realize that a) they just aren’t that great to drive (low torque motor and poor transmission programming) and b) reliability not as good as the 2nd gen

What I like most about the Tacoma is that it's appears to be a tough, capable vehicle without the overtly boisterous footprint as a full sized truck. It's like the nimble guy in the back of the room who doesn't feel the need to prove himself because he knows what he's capable of. ... but yeah, dude that price, idk...

The TRD Pro and TRD Off Road are built for 1 main purpose. Off road on any terrain but with Toyota reliability. I don’t care about the gas mileage or rougher ride on the road. I had a 1997 Toyota Tacoma that was an extra cab 4 cylinder. That truck had unreal capabilities and I still wish I owned it to this day. It was a 5 speed manual and in the 4 years that I owned it I put 218,000 miles on it. All of those miles were either off roading in the desert, or rock crawling in the mountains. The truck was also my work truck when I worked for my Uncles drywall company. I used to haul and tow well past its recommended capacities. The only thing that I ever did to that truck was a new clutch at I think either 172,000 miles or maybe it was 176,000? I couldn’t believe it lasted that long though. The power steering pump went out a month after buying it new but that was a warranty issue. And then the passenger front brake went metal to metal at only 9,000 miles and would always wear much faster than the drivers side. I think years later there was a recall on the calipers sticking. When I put 4 PIAA 80 Racing Series off road lights and a pre runner bumper on the truck the shop accidentally drilled through the radiator. They ended up putting a new aftermarket radiator that was bigger in it but it kept the truck running slightly cooler too. I then snapped a leaf spring at work one day hauling a pallet of boxes of drywall mud. Each box weighed 5 lbs. and I think there were 60 boxes on a pallet. I then had other materials loaded as well. My Dad was friends with a guy that custom built a lot of suspensions for vehicles that race in the Baja 1000. He put custom made heavy duty leaf springs under my truck and then leveled the front as well. I ended up having better ground clearance and off road capabilities in addition to being able to hall more weight too. He swapped out the stock shocks front and rear for adjustable, custom made reservoir shocks and I never again had another suspension issue. That truck was a really good truck. I even got married in it at the Drive Thru Wedding Chapel in Las Vegas. My next Tacoma was a 2007 TRD Off Road extra cab with a 6 speed manual. The rear locker in it made that truck also a very good off road capable truck. I got rid of it in I think 2014 or 2015? I needed a full size truck because none of my kids fit in the back seat. I also really miss that truck a lot! Because of that and my really liking the new TRD Pro Tacoma’s, I am thinking about keeping my full size truck for family stuff but buying one of those. We live in Colorado now and I know tons of places a few hours away that I can go off roading. All that I would need to do on that truck is ditch the stock tires for some 10 ply BFG All Terrain TKO’s and add some off road lights to it and it would be ready to go. Put a Baja Design ONYX 6, 50” light bar on it and it’s good to go. Maybe a winch as well.

He's right about hunting gears. My 2018 TRD OR did the same, but somehow I've adjusted my brain or my right foot. I average 22 mpg with 50% of my driving at 60 mph. What is weird is that if I'm going steady 55-60 mph it gets 28 mpg. Above 65mph, mpg drops fast. It's not fast, smooth, good on gas or cheap ... but I'm keeping it.

To me, this is one of the best looking trucks in this segment and for a stock exhaust it sounds pretty good, at least if you have heard a ranger or a Gladiator lol, and the 2020 just seals the deal for me, so one today, it has so much presence, and after being driven on one it isn't all that slow and when it was punched the transmission was quick enough and those of you complaining about mpg go buy a hybrid, the offroad bits is what causes the mpg drop

Ehh, I’d have the gladiator as a toy man. This is more of a work truck. I don’t see why they add bells and whistles to these. You’re right, this has more reliability, hence for the working man using it for A to B transport or light payloads. You don’t buy a Jeep for its reliability either. You buy one because they’re fun as hell. If money’s an issue, head for the TRD pro (a lot of bang for buck) and if you don’t really care; buy the gladiator. I have a raptor and a JL. I prefer the JL because I can go topless here in Texas frequently... I had a Tundra for the longest time. Didn’t go back to Toyota because its awful interiors. Cheers

Is this a truck that a tall person can comfortably drive without rubbing their head on the head liner? This is a subjective question so it might be hard to give a precise answer, and that's okay. However, since you own the truck and have experience with it, your opinion will be helpful. Also, what would you say are the things you dislike most about the truck. Hearing all the great things are nice, but I want to know what frustrates owners about the truck. Thanks.

I previously had an F-150 Supercrew 4x4 with 3.5L Ecoboost and there are certainly things I miss about it, but at 68,000 miles it spent 11 weeks in the shop last summer. Btw, my longbed Tacoma is only about 4 inches shorter than my Supercrew....regarding fuel economy, I average 21.5mpg in the Tacoma vs 16 in the Ford.

I have a wife, a 17 year old kid and a 90lbs dog. I am looking to get a pickup truck sometime next year 2020. I have watched your videos to try to see which would fit our needs best. The trouble is most all reviews focus on towing. My situation is a little different. My primary purpose is to haul the family and commute to work daily ( about 60/40 city/freeway) nothing extreme, and only about 50 miles a day round trip). The truck aspect is for the occasional trash haul, or helping someone move, or getting plywood at Home Depot for some project. With all that being said, I want the most comfortable room, best fuel economy, reliability, safety and price. What is your recommendation? Thank you..

I was definitely in the same boat at first but when you look at the capabilities of those trucks they are honestly insane. I’ve got a 19 ranger which doesn’t offer as much offroad goodies as the zr2 or trd pro. But being that I didn’t need a full size truck and still wanted some offroad ability the ranger was perfect for me. Yes I could spend 3k more and get a full sized truck but the ranger was fully loaded and to get a fully loaded full size truck I’d be lookin at another 10k.

Toyota's decision to remove the "reliability" that the taco is known for by moving all manufacturing to Mexico has me looking at the Gladiator. Solid axle front and a stick! Toyota took my loyalty for granted to make a buck. Tundra is too big for parking spots in Hawaii. Soon disappointed. Actually mad!!

Obviously, that's a matter of opinion and, having just purchased a 2020 TRD Offroad that definitely has some annoying issues, I completely disagree with the characterization that any of this is "petty." It has little to do with reliability, which I suspect will be pretty solid with this truck. It's more about diminishing build quality (which is what you get when you chase cheap labor, Toyota) and the day to day driving experience. It can be extremely annoying dealing with the many quirks of this truck on a daily basis...such as the transmission's absurd gear hunting, endless drive line vibrations, and alignment issues. For what my truck cost, it is absolutely a disappointment in my eyes. I hope like hell it does turn out to be reliable because I'm stuck with it now.

@@dlg5485 speaking on the bashing of Toyota for cheap labor. They've been assembling tacomas in Baja California( Mexico) since the 2bd generation. And the 2nd generation is considered to be extremely reliable, especially the 2013 to 2015 models. So this complaint about the new tacomas means nothing. If you don't like the automatic. Get the manual transmission. It's that simple..

@@kgbreviews35 Again, you are confusing reliability with quality...two completely different things. I have little doubt that a new Tacoma will be pretty reliable mechanically. The issue is the lack of refinement and an overall feeling of quality. Incidentally, I sold my 2020 Tacoma after just 6 months of ownership because I hated driving it that much. The chassis vibrations drove me insane and Toyota simply would not address it. I am extremely disappointed in Toyota and will likely never buy another one.

Its very rare I put my two cents in these things but I just sold a 2010 Jeep Wrangler for a tacoma 2019 TRD off road with the long bed 4 door 4x4.Toyota gave me 10,000 for my trade and with the CarGurus app that shows a great deal to a fair one I got it for 35,000 out the door! The jeep had 90,000 miles on it and it never broke down and only had a couple of recalls but all cars are getting those now a days.I will let you know in ten years about the tacoma.

Problem with the third generation is in their attempt to get better mileage went with the terrible 6 speed that robs the motor torque by shifting early and searching gears. Its a shit drive train. Garbage. Either put the second gen 4 liter back or go with the proven D4D diesel from overseas. Something, anything.

The way I see it is the more technology you put inside of a truck the more damage you can do if you really work that truck. For example if you're working a truck in construction and you get it muddy or a very dirty who says it won't destroy a computer or maybe even a anti-lock brake sensor. All I'm saying is there's a right place for everything and more technology in a work truck especially one designed to go off-road is asking for trouble.

I work at a ‘yota dealer and we have a couple of owners complaining on how hard it is to drive in a straight line. Dealt with one of them not too long ago who bought one of our used Tacoma with just 5,000 miles. After requesting to drive TWO Tacoma’s off the lot to compare, not seeing any difference, and still insisting something was wrong with his truck I told him straight up that perhaps it’s not the vehicle for him and that he should buy a Mercedes if he cares about stability.

I love the hilux and the land cruiser. The Tacoma used to make sense about 15 years ago, but the biggest problem that truck faces is how good the full size trucks are getting. You can get a raptor for another $7k. Hell, you can get a ram rebel or an fx4 for less money that this Tacoma. I get the reliability outside the US. Not here where roads are great and off-roading is optional. $50k for a Tacoma is outrageous.
