Speaking from an automotive engineering point of view who owns the 1st gen and 2nd gen Tacoma. I can honestly say this model is nice but not ready. The small turbochargers engine will experience lots of wear and tear as a stock model. Most Tacoma owners don’t do stock they upgrade tires, lift kits, grill numbers ect. That it self will put more stress on the engine and run the risk of part failures. This truck is the 1st year of the 4th generation which means recall and production parts issues. The hybrid system is another challenge yes it will help improve power but undergo a beating. After 10 year the battery system will need to be replaced another inconvenience to the owner. Plus the gas tank went from 21.1 gals to 18 gals with no change to the MPGs. Overall the price of the truck about 45k not worth the troubles. I rather buy a 3rd generation for 10k less and use the savings for modifications. Best of luck to you if you do decide to buy new maybe wait 3 year by than the issue will be gone.

Let’s call it like it is, They know the new trucks are going to help with content & their channels but that’s about it. It’s literally pointless to upgrade your Toyota every refresh or model change. if you’re going to be trading in your vehicle after every few years, just to upgrade to the highest trim or new model, you might as well buy a Chevy or something. I specifically just bought a 2023 TRD OR a couple months ago because I was not interested in having the first model year nor was I interested in the 4 cyl turbo. The 4th generation is also too overstyled for me. Likes like they tried too hard

The Gen4 Tacoma is growing on me a bit. I didn't like the new look at first, but certain trims are starting to look pretty good to me. I also was not excited about the turbocharged engine, but I am open to the idea. My biggest concern is longevity. I have no plans to get rid of my Gen3 Tacoma, but if I was forced out of it then I do think I would give the new Gen4 a hard look.

I'm tempted .. and the fact that the engine has been tested on the lexus since 2021 with no issues or recalls.. It seems very reliable......

Joining the discussion with my two cents on the Gen4 Tacoma. Like many here, I was initially skeptical about the new design and turbocharged engine. However, seeing the detailed reviews and user experiences, it's growing on me. I'm curious about how the new engine will hold up in terms of longevity and maintenance, especially compared to the legendary durability of the older models. Also, how does it stack up for off-road enthusiasts? Would love to hear thoughts from anyone who's had a chance to test its limits. Great community and insights here!

Hi Chloe, great video as always. I just made the transition from a 2010 Nissan Frontier to 2023 Toyota Tacoma and just leased the 2023 Tacoma SR5 4X4 and like it a lot. I leased for 3 years because I figured with the 2024 they would need to work out some bugs with the new generation. I did like the turbo in the Ford Ranger I road tested but decided to go with the Tacoma due to the know reliability and of course the price was better than the Ford. I do enjoy your channel and like to see the content you put out including the mods which are awesome. Keep up the great work! 😊

As a former Frontier owner (2005 Nismo) I will say, interior wise, I really liked the frontier better than my current 3rd Gen interior. The storage space was also better. What I miss from my frontier that the Tacoma doesn't have. Bigger glove box, mine had lights in the glove box, and center console. I could fit large cups in the center compartment no problem. The rear seats folded in two different ways. There's a tray at center dash that is great for storage. Small cubbies under steering, storage under stereo was great. Back seats, center fold down arm rest with cup holders. Everything here on the frontier was superior. The fact that the 3rd gen doesn't have as good as an interior space as my 2005 frontier furiates me to this day. 37k truck and you can't give us the storage?? Not even a light in the small glove box? Other than that, the tacoma's functionality is the best and I still love my truck. Just wish it had rear disc brakes, better interior space and storage, and better seating position.

@@90FirstGenPGTI 100% agree with you on those things especially the leg room in the rear seats. It also appears at least with the 2023 Tacoma the width of the rear truck bed seems smaller. I used to have a cap on my frontier, I may have gave it a bigger appearance, but it appears to be shallow on the width side. All in all there is some give and take but so far going from a 13 year old truck to the new options in my 2023 kind of made those issue relevant to me at least. Now the 2024 looks sweet and after my lease is up in 2026 that truck with have all the bugs worked out I am sure and the 2023 has rotors in the rear. Oh I did test ride the 2023 frontier and the seats were very uncomfortable. They dug in the side of my legs just sitting there, so that was one of the things that turned me off for the newer frontier.

That was not only a distraction. But a huge safety issue. I don't care what they say about pushing the power to the max with a turbocharger. They won't last as long as a naturally aspirated engine.

This is what I have been thinking. Turbos cut the life of any engine due to the strain they cause on the motor. They amplify pressure and stress on parts and I know this from experience. They cut the life of a engine in half and you also have to constantly check oil levels due the turbos running incredibly hot and burning oil when hitting boost. More parts for maintenance and replacement. Nothing beats naturally aspirated engines for longevity and reliability.

I agree, simplicity is what made Toyota reliable. I don't like the electric power steering, or the turbo 4cyl or the lack of leaf springs I'll keep my 19 tacoma. Mabey I'm not "Balller" enough, or mabey I like having money more than looking like I have money , I swear, Gen Z will die in debt never owning anything.

@@chrisquintana3877 you never really truly own anything. For example, if you end up paying off your mortgage, you still have property tax and if you don’t pay that they will take your home. With a car purchase as soon as you pay it off you still don’t truly own it because it Has to be registered and if you don’t register it, they will take your car if you use it on public roads

Just got a 2023 Tacoma. With a 4.8 it’s a breast . Better than my tundra. Still love my 3.8 2013 Tacoma. Sold my 2007 Tacoma with 3.8 , made good money off it . 3.8 is probably one of the best engines ever made . Glad I didn’t get the 4 cylinder. Good luck with it .

I enjoyed the video. Nice seeing productions models being tested versus prototypes. I went to the Seattle Auto Show hoping to check it out, but all they had was a prototype and it was locked. I do have a question. I do know that the scoop on the TRD Sport is non-functional and I was surprised that you said it can be taken off. Personally, I don't like it, so I was curious to know how it can be taken off. Do you know how?

Hey Chloe, noticed you both were impressed by the acceleration over the 3rd gen. How does the new Taco(non-hybrid) compare to a 3rd gen V6 with the OTT tune? I take it the OTT tune gives the 3rd gen similar torque numbers but more horsepower from the dyno sheets shown by OTT.

The #1 thing I hear from all those who test drove it- drivetrain and driving dynamics are waaaaay better. #2 modern I think many people will get this because it is finally compelling. Tundra didn’t garner that much excitement and I heard tons of disappointment. I haven’t eat driven it, so I still have an open mind about it.

This year I purchased my first brand new truck! A 2023 Lunar Rock double cab, 6 speed manual of course. The Taco loves off-roading with super low gear ratio with the manual and it’s probably the most reliable truck you can buy right now. But I’ve got my Toyota dealer trying to get me a Trail Hunter 😅 The way I see it, if I can have Toyota factory warranty all the upgrades I would do anyways and I don’t have to spend hours building it, that’s just more time I’m not worrying about break downs on my dime, and more time using my truck for work in the patch or getting out into that sweet Alberta / BC backcountry ⛰️ But then many will say “ But sir that thing will break down immediately just like a Ford” Ya cool story man I just don’t think Toyota would put this turbo I4 in a Land Cruiser if it meant tarnishing, the reputation that it’s had for having legendary reliability, longevity and off-road cred…

I drove a 2011 TRD TX Off Road for 12 years, then bought a low mileage 2021 TRD PRO in FEB 23. I actually like the 5 speed transmission and 4.0 V6 from the previous generation better…but the MPG was terrible. It took me several months to get used to the hood scoop on the TRD PRO, but now I don’t even notice it…plus I love the updated features and better MPG. I guess it’s just what you get used to and what appeals to you. I love the look of the PRO and the feeling I get from owning and driving the top of the line Tacoma!

Hi Chloe, I have a 2023 V6 Tacoma 4x4 sport. I am on the fence as to whether I should do the overland tune on my current Tacoma or getting the new 2024 4 cyl turbo. How would you say they compare? Without the tune the new Tacoma seems to drive a little better with more torque and smoother gearing.
