The 2024 Toyota Tacoma TRD OFF-ROAD (complete overview)

#2024ToyotaTacoma #2024Tacoma #ToyotaTacoma #TacomaTRDOFFROAD
Welcome to my video on the 2024 Toyota Tacoma TRD OFF-ROAD!
Since 1995, the Tacoma arrived to offer drivers a more off-road capable and powerful pickup than the Toyota Hilux. This American model comes in many different forms, but the TRD off-road speaks closest to its spirit. Capability. And strength!
And NOW, for 2024, the Tacoma is fully redesigned with a whole new frame, powertrain, and more technology options! As the owner of a 2021 Tacoma TRD Off-Road, I will share my thoughts in comparison to the outgoing generation.
In this video we will extensively cover the big changes on the exterior style, interior space, and the drivetrain/drivability of the 2024 Toyota Tacoma.

Thumbs up for you. Thumbs down for turbos and pricing. 😂😂😂

[@brianruperti]

Thanks! 😅

[@bimastrike87]

thank you for taking your time showing things slowly and up close, yes there are a lot of other Toyota Tacoma videos out there but yours stands out for your patience and attention to detail.

[@brianruperti]

Thanks so much!

[@villagecpa]

I’m really enjoying my 2023 TRD Off-road. I did not want the 2024 version, but thanks for the great video.

[@brianruperti]

Thanks for watching!

Nice job on the video. I got my off road prmium about 1.5 months ago and love it! Came from a 2023 off road. The difference in the tansmission is night and day and safety sense 3 is also worlds better!

Exceptional walk-through. I just bought this exact truck. Should be here in about a week. Looking forward to a deeper dive. I'll check out the software videos. Keep up the great work.

[@brianruperti]

Thanks and congrats!

[@garybeaty4032]

Awesome video. Glad you took a different approach instead of just reading off a spec sheet like many other videos. I really like the limited trim because I like chrome. I saw that it had an auto stop start button on it unfortunately

[@brianruperti]

Thank you! With the Auto start stop just remember to cancel it every startup and you’re good to go!

[@Mjr1348]

The best vid I’ve seen. I’m really on the fence with a purchase. Love the silver. I wish it was a prem version vid. Good job ✌🏻

Hey Brian, you did great job with this video for the full review of this awesome truck, I really like your unique style in reviewing TOYOTA cars and I insist that you are my best youtuber ever. I really enjoyed every moment of the video and always being waiting for your next video to share. Actually you full discribed every single detail in the truck and you make whoever watches the video to buy the truck. Great job and hope to see you soon in the next video, and please don't take long times to show up again. Wish to your channel more success. Sending all the best wishes from Egypt 🇪🇬 Peace ✌️

[@brianruperti]

Hamdy thank you so much! I must say this is the best comment I’ve ever had from you! It made my day and warmed my heart so much. Sending love to Egypt from the USA!!!

[@Igallaway]

Great review Brian, just went to my local dealership. They have a Sport Premium in Underground coming in Mid May. Put a deposit down on it.

[@brianruperti]

Thank you! Congrats! Thats a very, very nice truck. And I love the underground in direct light!

[@kellyquezada3908]

Great review, can't wait for your review on the SR manual, I mean my 98 does have roll down windows, so anything would be an upgrade!!!

Thanks! I’ll def film it if we ever get one!

[@sclems4]

Great review Brian. New sub earned. Im getting rid of my 21 Limited for a 24 TRD Sport premium in a few weeks.

[@brianruperti]

Thanks!! Welcome to the channel. And great choice!

[@Specz187]

Very good video. Best in depth that i have seen for a car. I recently bought a 2015 4runner limited in blizzard pearl with 120,000 miles and love the thing. Looked at Tacoma and tundra as well. I personally don't care much for the digital dash and the large touchscreen. Guess I'm old school, first 2 cars being an 88 astro van and an 89 buick lesabre. I like analog and buttons to control things lol as far as off-road I swear on my old land rover discos I had although they'd break down before they finished. Dodge durango was my only other thing I took off-road and it just fell apart, got pulled out with an Oldsmobile bravado, sad times. This new taco is nice tho, buddy has an 08 and uses it on his farm and daily and still runs good with 280,000 miles. Hoping for my 4runner to last that long.

[@brianruperti]

Hey thanks so much! And nice mileage on the Tacoma!

[@donthesheek]

Again another no non-sense review, to the point, informative, great video/camera work. It's a great looking truck, I too have a 21 3rd gen OR. Between the two models there's some give and take. When one's available at a dealer in my area I'll take one out for a test drive for sure.

[@brianruperti]

Thanks so much! Always nice to see a comment from you!

[@minipandora22]

I agree

[@Justfor1day]

Brian..you give great review...i agree it looks fast standing still...it does have great lines..are you keeping the 3rd or getting a 24'.

[@brianruperti]

Thank you! Due to my current financial goals I am keeping the army green 3rd!

[@g7003041]

Great unbiased review. As the currently 2022 Toyota Tacoma owner. it just hard to upgrade to 2024 with such pricing ~45K and so many blank buttons, sliding rear windows optional, no power driver seat 😢

[@brianruperti]

Thank you! And I agree! Hard to justify taking things away and adding other things yet raising the price. /:

[@jmyers6175]

Good video. Do you still have your 21 army green tacoma? I still have mine, and I love it.

[@brianruperti]

Thank you. Yes I do!

[@MrBenjr]

Is there an ambient light? Thats one thing i love about the rams, and the 3rd get just has one above the charging pad

[@brianruperti]

Not on this one. With the higher packages I believe it’s in there. I attached a link to the build info you can find out which grade and package will get it for you!

[@majorhavok9423]

Great review! I'm glad I'm keeping my 2022 offroad for sure. I like the old one better! The new one is nice but for some reason I just don't like it!

[@brianruperti]

Thanks for watching!

[@sopranojam]

Is the manual seat adjustment with electronic lumbar support the default? According to the builder, TRD Off-Road has "Fabric-trimmed seats; 6-way manually adjustable driver and front passenger seats with 2-way manually adjustable lumbar support on driver's seat only" but this has an electronic lumbar, which isn't mentioned with that combination anywhere.

[@brianruperti]

Correct this is the default unless upgraded

[@TwoFeetOutdoors]

Strange, have seen full black grills in videos for the TRD Off Road and grills with the Toyota logo not blacked out. Wonder why?

[@brianruperti]

Typically the TRD is blacked out and other models have the silver

[@stanleyblazeraznik6047]

Thank you for this. Why do I keep coming back to the Tacoma? Looks! I like the Canyon ATX4 but man, the Tacoma just looks like…..Me.

[@brianruperti]

It’s a nice truck!

[@morningdrums]

Am thinking of getting 2024 tacoma trd off road. But, It really needs a lift and bigger tires.

[@brianruperti]

Make it happen then!

[@wendyzara6908]

My 2015 f150 gets 19 city and 28 hwy! My 2.7 eccoboost twin turbo is fast but to get that mileage you need to go slow speed limits

[@johnthearcher662]

Brian, nice review. Can you speak on the rear dif? Do you get the locker with the TRD OR like the last Gen 3 has? Worth mentioning....Regarding the 8 speed trans. I saw a video mentioning that it is the same 8 speed that Toyota has being using in other vehicles. Forget the model of the trans but I had one in my wife's Camry and that was a super smooth unit. Flawless shifting. Point being while the engine is "new" the trans is a very proven design. It may make some buyers feel better.

[@brianruperti]

Thank you. This is not my truck. The offroad has the rear locker. I like the way this drives a lot!

[@ericd1632]

The engine isn't new either. They've been using it in some of the Lexus models for years

[@johnthearcher662]

@@ericd1632 Yes you are correct. I spent the better part of a week looking at all the new offerings in this segment and I went with another Tacoma. This time an SR5 4wd to keep the cost down a bit. I'm rolling the dice with the reliability given all the changes. Toyata has a good track record with me. All the other offerings are a significantly bigger gamble to me in this area. The SR5 seems to have everything I reasonably need. I considered the SR trim but given the de-tuned engine and the old style leaf springs in back the SR5 seems like it is going to be the go to model for this gen Tacoma. Again thanks for your review and assessment of the new truck. Very helpful.

[@kellyquezada3908]

Hey Brian, have you ever considered a video on the 2024 Nissan Frontier? Your POV? That would be a very interesting video!! Maybe your neighbors would be cool with that...

[@brianruperti]

I shall consider!

[@kellyquezada3908]

@brianruperti your subscribers would love to know your oppinion!

The bulb or assembly? Both appear pretty simple to do.

Same screw slots for that air dam on the lower models

[@KO_infamous]

Doesn't the Trailhunter have an axle dump exhaust? Probably going to see a ton of people (myself included) doing that almost straight away.

[@Ryan-cf6lc]

Love the detailed review, it did seem like you were grasping at a lot of straws. I can’t help but feel like you have mixed feelings about the new Tacoma.

[@brianruperti]

Thank you. I just freestyled it and went with my honest first thoughts. I wanted to be as unbiased as I could. I personally think it’s an awesome truck!

[@lc7192]

If you park your 3rd gen Tacoma in your garage, the length will be the same but the 4th gen Tacoma is 4 inches wider. So if you park two cars in a two car garage, you’ll have to find room for the additional width.

[@brianruperti]

Nothing wrong w a little more width 😎

[@ericd1632]

​@@brianrupertiThat's what she said 😏

[@wshaffer79]

I really like the look of this one, even more than the 3rd gen, but I think it'd be better with the V6.

[@brianruperti]

V6 reliability!

[@christiankelly9019]

This thing rides like a caddie. I have the 24' TRD OFF-ROAD with the remote back window, Also it has a dampen tailgate. I guess those aren't standard. Interesting 🤔.... The bed has the DC port on the driver side and Ac port on passenger side..

Anyone notice how dirty the inside lens of the headlight is? Why manufactures aren't rejecting these parts from suppliers, I don't know. I've also never opened my back window in my Gen 2 except to clean the glass.

Smaller gas tank 18.2 gals, vs 3rd gen at 21.1 gals…still NO gad hooded struts..note my 2001 Toyota Camry came with gas hood struts…SAD no gas struts, smaller gas tanks ..means more gas stations stops..

[@brianruperti]

But my skiddles are at the gas station 🌈

That’s not extra thick paint on the bottom. That’s chip guard and it’s a pain in the ass to duplicate if you work in a body shop like I have for the last 30 years.

As an owner of a 2nd and 3rd gen, this is a huge downgrade and disapointment. RIP tacoma, you were loved.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts sorry to hear you’re not a fan. Hopefully the next gen will intrigue you.

[@toneyo4794]

I don’t think the new Tacoma has been out long enough to say it’s a disappointment. You may not like some features or the engine but until it’s been experienced I don’t think you can have a legitimate opinion of the new Tacoma. I’m not saying you’re wrong I’m saying you just don’t know if it’s a disappointment yet.
