4TH Generation Toyota Tacoma VS 3RD Generation Toyota Tacoma!

👋 It todays review we take a look at the all new 4TH generation Toyota Tacoma!! We have made several videos on this truck already, but this is the first production model we have tested! There is a full review on this exact 2024 Toyota Tacoma TRD Sport if you want to see the exact specs!
We are doing a head to head comparison with the out going 3RD generation Toyota Tacoma to see the differences between these midsize trucks!
If you are new to the channel, I have personally owned two tacomas. I owned a 2007 Toyota Tacoma XSP for about eight years and recently sold my 2017 TRD Offroad that I owned for about six years. I absolutely love the Toyota Tacoma as the 2007 was my first vehicle ever! I really didn't want to sell my third generation Tacoma, but after seeing pictures of the 4th generation and knowing that is was actually coming, I knew I was going to be ready for this all new truck!
You can tell right away how different the exterior styling is. The 2024 Toyota Tacoma resembles the latest generation Toyota Tundra in my opinion and I think it looks so cool! The lines are more edgy and crisp and gives the truck a lot more definition.
The interior is completely new and resembles both the Tundra and Sequoia. With the optional 14'' infotainment system, it actually looks nice within the dash. The driving seat also has several adjustments that the previous models didn't have and there is a digital gauge cluster now!
The back seat space hasn't changed much and the storage is still retained if you don't opt for the hybrid engine!
The drive is very similar, however with different engines and drivetrains, especially with the automatic, the truck is much smoother to drive!
The 2024 Toyota Tacoma has ditched the V6 and now has two four cylinder engines available. With that being said, they have more power and are more efficient then the outgoing V6. Two transmission options are still available, the six speed manual and now a brand new eight speed automatic.
The Toyota Tacoma has been the best selling midsize pickup truck for several years and I see no signs of it slowing down with this all new model!
I can't wait to pickup my 2024 Toyota Tacoma and start on the mods and videos about this truck!

You say a small price increase the price increase is outrageous

[@amill1563]

I agree it's super nice! It's fun to figure out what trim level you want. This is the only truck I like on the market period.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

I totally agree! I have another video coming soon on that!

[@smittysmitty481]

Excellent video!

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Glad you liked it!

[@mrlozano]

Thanks for this presentation, man, 4th gen looks great I gotta admit. I've got a 3rd gen w/ a manual that I can't justify parting ways with though, so if I ever get a 4th gen, it will have to be along side my 3rd gen, because my 3rd gen i intend to be my forever truck. That manual was hard to find, I won't give it up now. Say bro, I remember in one of your older videos when you got to borrow your friend's 3rd gen with a manual, and you were pleasantly surprised by it and began 2nd guessing if you should have gotten the manual. Has your thought process changed since then? Are you sticking with an automatic for the 4th gen, or are you tempted to get the manual? Great video bro thanks for the 411 on all things Taco! God bless!

[@jmyers6175]

My 21 trd off-road in army green with 6-speed manual. Very rare. Love it ❤ . Left stock. It is everything I always wanted.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Glad you enjoy it! I can't wait to own the new one!

[@mad-meh2719]

Wait till you see the bronze oxide in person.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

It's pretty cool!

[@honda116969]

Yeah bro I agree with you that army green is badass! I have a '22 Blue crush metallic 6-speed manual, OTT tuned, tonneau cover, Carhartt seat covers & bypassed the accumulator on the clutch to make it smoother & consistent. I'm just not doing a lift or anything like that, it drives really good after the tune. It gained sum good power and to be honest just makes it easier to drive in general, drivability improvement 💯% best $450 & don't worry it won't void your warranty unless you go in like a DUMBASS telling Toyota you tuned it 🤦

[@mrlozano]

I've got the 2020 TRD sport (white) with the 6-speed manual, that I picked up used last year. Finding one w/ the manual is the proverbial albino tiger in the wild! I share your sentiment. To me, is the perfect midsize truck. It is my intention to never part ways with it!

[@Markemd]

Thanks for the video. One thing, your backseat comparison didn't seen to be done accurately? It looked like when you hopped in the 3rd Gen, the passenger seat in front of you had been set far back, but when you hopped into the driver's side of the 4th gen it looked like that seat was left positioned farther forward? Maybe it just looks that way due to the difference in rear space between the two, but to me it looked like the front seats were not set at similar distances to then fairly assess the rear.

[@paulm6481]

They both look great. When it comes to that engine and reliability only time will tell.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Yeah we'll see how the new 4 cylinder stands up!

[@ricardoguzman871]

The 3rd Gen just looks so much more cohesive in the cab. the built in appearance of the screen and AC vents give it a nice symmetrical look. 4th gen went the stick an ipad on the dash and call it a day route. lol

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

That is an option so you can get a smaller screen!

[@shnerp]

love the front end of the gen4, not so sure about the side and rear view. looks too boxy. I need to see one in person. Kind of disappointed in changes with the gen4 back seat. Gen3 allows you to fold the seats down to a flat surface. excellent for installing a hammock for dogs and gear. can that be done with gen4? I think Ill hang on to my gen3 for another3 to 4 years while Toyota irons out the bugs. Gen 4 will be a reliable truck after a bit of time.

[@jasontf2947]

2nd gen is the best with that 4.0L engine and transmission.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Glad you enjoy that generation.

[@18HunnidBK]

Heck yeah i got all the gens. 3.4 is amazing! 4.0 burns out and torquey, and 3.5 was sluggish but cool truck. 4th gen is not appealing inside or out for me. Looks to cheap

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

@@18HunnidBK I enjoyed my 2nd and 3rd gen! Ready for the 4th!

[@brettjackson7233]

Bummer I wish they kept the rear fold down seat the same with the hard plastic. Other than that it looks much improved.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Yeah that was super useful!

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

[@scortez24]

@@BrosFOURRSpeed I agree 💯 I hope they figure it out

[@m.687]

What a disaster 😂

[@anthonybaked]

I like the third gen its probably because i was at the manufacturer seeing it be made i bought it at that time a new 2017 tacoma trd offroad i love the technology in the new 4th gen tho im going to be honest and say that the reason i like the third gen is because it doesnt look like a colorado this 4th gen the outside looks like a Colorado just how at that time a had the option to get a new tacoma or a new tundra and i would had never chose the tundra because no technology but now with the redesign that happen in 23 i would get the tundra because of the technology and the new body style as well as the sequia thats a sleeper seeing it at the manufacturer with the new screens 😮

[@janetairlines1351]

Under the hood in the new one looks like a rats nest

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Yeah it could use an engine cover

[@jc6618]

Looks like all they did was flip the grille shape upside down, put some slightly different headlight on it that look way to wide apart, deleted a few polygons, slapped a 4 cyl in there and called it day. 3rd gen looks much nicer in my opinion.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

They did a lot more than that lol, I think the 4th gen looks so much better! Sold my 3rd gen for one! Both are great trucks though.

[@jc6618]

I’m sure they did! I was just looking at initial appearance, maybe when I see one in person I’ll change my mind and it’ll grow on me. I’m not a big fan of the new tundra design and this new Tacoma has same design language I think, so maybe just not for me. Congratulations on your new truck! Happy for you, hope you enjoy it!

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

@@jc6618 I love the new tundra look! So a mini tundra look I think is sweet! Haven’t taken delivery of one yet lol, waiting for some more options to become available.

[@Thebusdriverandgamermorefan790]

I prefur the new gen Toyota Tacoma for me.

[@TOUCTI]

The third Gen look cheaper, very nice upgrade with the 4th Gen 🤩

[@marcJoel]

TFL broke theirs already

[@paulm6481]

The ride, transmission tuning, seating position so much better in new one. Also Hanes one has fully boxed frame. The old one has a V6 that is proven to 300,000 miles. Jury is out in that 4 banger, but it’s a Toyota so…

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Toyota has been using this 4 cylinder for decades, it’s been proven to be reliable..

[@paulm6481]

@@BrosFOURRSpeed It has not been used a Tacoma. Truck duty is much different as 4x4 and towing and hauling.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

I mean turbo technology in general. Toyota has tons of turbo vehicles in over seas vehicles. So I'm sure they built their new engine very tough. We'll have to see how it holds up. Does drive smooth!

[@rndsommer40]

Toyota could have just refreshed the interior and exterior and added an 8 or 10 speed transmission and called it a day.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

That's about what they did. And then just swapped to a newer engine from other Toyotas

[@BlueSTI]

The design looks better but a 4cylinder with options for 60k out the door is ridiculous 🙄

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

It's pricey for sure. But the new engine drives very nice tho

[@allenallen5005]

I like the 3rd gen much better.

[@Brette_Caldwell]

The third gen is better.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Why!? I sold my 3rd gen for the new one!

[@ethenjordan2010]

because he can’t afford a 4th gen and is going with the fad that 3rd is better because it’s an N.A. and slow and a dog

[@rndsommer40]

I think it looks great! Still love my 2022 TRD OR. I would be a little nervous about getting a first year of a new gen. Hope it's bulletproof and I'm a buyer in a few years. Good luck with it! Will be watching.

[@malcolmn.5222]

I mean if someone gives you the 3rd gen to you for free.

[@Brette_Caldwell]

@@BrosFOURRSpeed I was looking at getting a Tacoma with a V6. Also the third gen will last longer. I was going to use it as a side by side more of a land use.

[@kbraap1]

New back seat area is such a disappointment compared to my 3rd gen. I sell Toyotas and haven’t been so happy with the new truck

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Yeah I wish they added climate vents and a center armrest. Also really liked the plastic cover on the backs of the seats

No turbo engine lasts as long with as little problems as non turbos. Especially that old v6...its bulletproof.

[@jamesmclawhorn8259]

@BrosFOURRSpeed keep that same energy at 300k miles. Guarantee that turbo goes out way before then. I'd at least waited til it was proven for a few years.

GM gives you vents in the back it’s cheaper and most standard features. Idk. I still think GM did it better. I’m more curious about the TRD Pro and Trailhunter when they finally release.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

The new Canyon and Colorado are great trucks for sure! We'll see how Toyota stacks up with the new gen against the competition! Competition got a lot better too for sure

[@ethenjordan2010]

@@BrosFOURRSpeed which is great for us! The customers!

[@corradettimotorsports360]

The new Tacoma suffers from a lot of production & drivetrain complexity, the old one had a Mini Van Motor in it, so both had their shortcomings. but as time moves on, I think the 3rd Gen will age better as time and mileage marches on.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

What’s the complexity with it?? Toyota has been using this engine for decades and it’s been working just fine in other markets..

[@jml9550]

3rd is pure garbage and I had one. Sold it within 2 years. Those who says 3rd gen are better than 4th had never test drove one or can’t afford it. Price is high I agree, so so are every cars out there. Hell a Civic Sport is close to $30k.

[@corradettimotorsports360]

@@BrosFOURRSpeed Looking under the hood it's got a lot of tech there, I think with the Turbos and all, it won't age well, when they have 200K and are 10 years, they won't be worth the price to repair me thinks!

You get about 3 runs after that they perform like shit so I could imagine towing during the summer time would smoke that thing like I did when I would race my SI or Accord lol.
