Better Than A Raptor? (2025 Toyota Tacoma TRD PRO)

[@TdawggLA]

I really don't think Toyota put a lot of thought into those seats. Makes the back seats completely useless. Inexcusable for 70k

[@smittysmitty481]

Those seats need to be an option & not standard. The price also needs to come down by $5k

[@christos881]

Even with regular seats, the back seats are useless.

[@shaniyoung6506]

Agree

[@UtahNick71]

@@smittysmitty481 $15K

[@michaellawrence6892]

And then they don't offer an option with no back seats and a bigger bed is a kick in the nuts.

[@huronv9500]

I spent a day driving the new TRD-Pro. It is so nice, comfortable and quiet, you never want to get out of it. The seats should be an option because it leaves no room for anyone in the rear. No one would ever care about the V-6 or complain that it is a 4 cylinder once you drive this, it is so quick and has amazing low-end power. If the price was in the low 50’s, I would get one if I could also have different front seats.

[@2011buddylee]

Better watch the (Edmunds review/vid dirt comparison test) on yt before making those remarks, 2024 Tacoma TRD Pro, 2024 Colorado ZR2 (Bison model), and 2024 Ranger Raptor. Let me save you the trouble, the Ranger Raptor SMOKED the Tacoma TRD Pro and the Colorado ZR2 they are not even in the same stratosphere as the RR. At the end of the test the Edmunds reviewer said that the new Tacoma TRD Pro is a (jack of all trades and a Master of None).

[@iblongshia]

I think $55K would be a great number for the TRD-PRO. I would trade my truck in for it at that price.

[@tacosportsareawesome]

In black this is the best looking midsize truck on the market.

[@Jojo-ni2cg]

It’s nice but the ford raptor is 8k less and no battery to worry about.

[@smittysmitty481]

I couldn’t agree more! You can fit human beings in the back of the Ranger Raptor too, unlike the TRDPro with those silly seats

[@joerobinson4844]

just good ol' Ford quality control

[@Jojo-ni2cg]

@ kind of like the made in Mexico tacoma

[@joerobinson4844]

@@Jojo-ni2cg plenty of quality vehicles come out of the Mexico plants, too bad you cant afford either brotha

[@YerBoyTroy]

eh, the 3.0 is a higher strung 2.7 with more boost pressure and with DI only. I don't think it's a good contender for longevity compared to the Taco's hybrid system. Toyota has been building hybrid systems with this battery type (non Lithium) far longer than the EcoBoost lineup has existed

[@fuyukim5250]

As long as the Tacoma doesn’t have a 4 auto transfer case, the Ranger Raptor is always better than Tacoma

[@Cyb3rCl3ric]

That color is perfect. If I had one I would mod it to look like Marty McFly’s pick up truck from Back to the Future.

[@davidchenette1091]

I tried out both pro and trail hunter back to back i brought the trail hunter i didn't care for the seats and hood scoop on the pro

[@michaelmclean5581]

Congrats on your new Trail Hunter!!

[@wd8085]

I can't believe people are dumb enough to buy this truck.

[@goldenrakelawncare6564]

Unfortunately I can

[@markwatts1101]

They are though 😢

[@hmc2s]

What about folks that spend over $100K on a Raptor? At the end of the day, it's an F150.

[@aadams2393]

Don’t be mad you can’t afford it

[@shawnfalls3538]

Sharp truck, and it really does look good in black.

[@edaddyx2hansonjr436]

This truck is the kind of thing that is cool to know it's out there. Like a Challenger Demon or ZR1 Vette or crazy Lambo. I'll never own it. It's ridiculously impractical. Made for like 4 total people on earth. It's just fun to know it's real and exists.

[@kraigbutcher4864]

Bag the seats but till u try em cant hate they are fucking bomb.

[@iblongshia]

I’d buy one if I didn’t already have a truck. Beautiful truck and I love those seats.

[@Lilreaper22]

So other than the price and the back seat space it's a little cheaper than a jeep but no not worth the 65,000 plus taxes i would definitely change the spare tire location beautiful mid size truck tho awesome content by the way and happy holidays to you and your's

[@goldenrakelawncare6564]

Not trying to talk shit but I'm genuinely curious if Toyota thinks those back seats are acceptable? Why would someone buy this truck?

[@666dynomax]

Most raptor dudes I see are single 45 year olds and they aren't changing that and the soon lol

[@scottleggejr]

Funny the only people I know who have raptor r are dads... They use them to haul bikes and quads to trail heads 🤷‍♂️

[@markwatts1101]

Ford kills this nicely 👌

[@greasyflight6609]

Ford is Ford...Toyota thank God is not Ford

[@Nothingmuch99]

Love the window rattle when shutting the door these new Toyotas are trash. That’s why I got ride of my Tundra, so cheap. After a week of driving it I hated it. @4:27

[@setitupintimeok]

This would have cost $45,693 in 2008 without inflation (CPI)

[@iwazaru8101]

The Mustang's rear seat has more legroom than the Tacoma TRD Pro.

[@johnnytran4720]

Hahahaha 😅

[@jaredsy-jntstv1266]

Back seats really look so tight! 😢

[@matthewknight1190]

Great truck but the backseat is not a priority.. As for $$ I like where TRD Sport and Off-road fall in a bit better

[@lawdawg5823]

Tacoma’s used to be affordable. These are now priced like a 3/4 ton pickup.

[@flyonawall6521]

That's crazy....I thought I just saw the sticker price being $65,000. As the kids say...."My eyes must be bugg'n yo."

[@5.0cs_Brandon]

This would be a great car if it was priced like the Ranger Raptor. Even a TRD off road premium is overpriced. High 50s is insane when you can grab a full size tundra limited for a few grand more, if that.

[@bx_718stryker7]

the price and the stupid unnecessary seats is what made me not trade in for one. What's the point of even putting full size back seats when even a toddler is uncomfortable back there lol

[@HuntingKing922]

Tundra should adopt the interior carbon fiber trim like taco. $65k for the good look, I’ll keep my papers and Toyota keep their metals.

[@KentWood-OptimizeUTennis]

Seems like he intentionally DOES NOT say the year and left side of window sticker hidden cause I'm certain this is not a 2025 like the title says.

[@tuomasholo]

Don’t do business with any dealer charging market adjustments.

[@classiccorvettesmusclecars5846]

That interior is too loud in red.. Paying sticker is also a “no”.

[@FreePalestine718]

You goddamn right

[@HotSizzleTV_]

We wouldn’t even be having this conversation if a Toyota is better than any midsize truck last year 2023 they were the best up until now they let me down with 4 cylinder turbo. How does it cost for a pro now ? Haven’t looked only seen Trd off road prem was the one I wanted and nope for the price. Hell no.

[@paulpryor850]

How are they going to get any better? When nobody's buying them! IMHO, it's going to take Toyota a while to improve on the new Tacoma. For the first time, this popular brand is hard to sell. These dealerships might have 2024 Tacomas for a couple years. Like other automakers! The difference is Toyota isn't knocking enough money off like the other manufacturers. Mainly because Toyota doesn't have two or three years of new vehicles on their lot collecting dust. Not yet, but that days coming real soon......

[@ur_asian_milfoil]

Dude don't you see them more and more on the road these are selling great 😂😂😂

[@paulpryor850]

@ur_asian_milfoil I was at the Toyota dealership on December 17th. 50+ Tacomas on the lot! Salespeople twiddling their thumbs. Hell, the service department wasn't even busy. I guess 10,000 mile oil changes for Toyota Care kills business, too. The only reason I was there. Was to negotiate a buyback with my lemon law attorney for my 2024 Tacoma. Before it goes to court mid-Jaunary....

[@KenMcCune-wb3jp]

Toyota built a awesome truck lo love the interior that's cool truck

[@greasyflight6609]

The unproven fourth Generation 4 Cylinder Tacoma is going to lift third generation Toyota Tacoma demand

[@YTBEN1045]

You can make that argument if the Tacoma has a V6 engine!

[@StevenEveral]

To be honest? This truck looks absolutely sick, but the price is a major turn off. Toyota has a great product here, but they're out of their minds with their recent pricing. If that truck was like 5K cheaper, it would be expensive but not insane.

[@m4vr1ck]

For that price it better come with a mounted dshk

Yup. I had a 2012 Taco and now have a 2016 Limited that stickered for 38K and will never get rid of it. 108k miles. Bullet proof and never put a dime into it other than regular maintenance. People commenting how much they love their American pickups trucks here will change their spots when they start piling money into them shortly after the warranty is up. I had a 2006 diesel F-250 I loved until it started falling apart after it's crummy 48k mile warranty was up. Very disappointing. Class-action lawsuits etc.
